Kasumi

Mist

Kasumi

Afraid of being seen through,
見え透かされることを
Miesukasareru koto wo
We play the part of ordinary fools,
恐れてありふれた道化を演じ合い
Osorete arifureta douke wo enjiai
Crushed by the look on your
可哀想なあなたの
Kawaisou na anata no
Poor face, fading away.
表情に押し潰されてゆく
Hyoujou ni oshitsubusarete yuku
Dreams lose their color in time,
夢は時の中に色
Yume wa toki no naka ni iro
Do we grow up like this?
褪せて大人になっていくのかしら
Asete otona ni natte iku no kashira
Did you ever learn? Even in tough times,
いつか覚えた？辛い時にも涙
Itsuka oboeta? tsurai toki ni mo namida
To hold back tears and act like it’s nothing.
堪えて何気なく振る舞うことを
Koraete nanigenaku furumau koto wo

You, who know too much about people,
人の性を知り過ぎたあなたの
Hito no saga wo shirisugita anata no
Your heart shows signs of forgetting,
心に陰る健忘の兆しを
Kokoro ni kageru kentai no kizashi wo
If only I could take away
苦い記憶の痛みと共に連れ去って
Nigai kioku no itami to tomo ni tsuresatte
The pain of bitter memories, far away.
やることができたらいいのに遠くへ
Yaru koto ga dekitara ii no ni tooku e

If I could paint my childhood days in dreams,
幼き日々を夢に描き出せば
Osanaki hibi wo yume ni egakidaseba
I long for a world of mist that expands,
いつか広がる霞の世界に憧れ
Itsuka hirogaru kasumi no sekai ni akogare
The shadow of me, holding on,
を抱く私の面影
Wo daku watashi no omokage
I don’t want to turn you into a memory,
思い出にしたくない
Omoide ni shitakunai
The pure you.
清らかなあなたを
Kiyoraka na anata wo

You, so dear, are being tainted,
こんなにも愛しいあなたが汚されてゆく
Konna ni mo itoshii anata ga kegasarete yuku
In the mist.
霞の中で
Kasumi no naka de
You, so dear, are getting hurt,
こんなにも愛しいあなたが傷ついてゆく
Konna ni mo itoshii anata ga kizutsuite yuku
In the mist.
霞の中で
Kasumi no naka de

If I reflect on the days gone by,
過ぎ去った日々を胸に映し出せば
Sugisatta hibi wo mune ni utsushidaseba
I chase after the world of mist that expands,
いつか広がる霞の世界を
Itsuka hirogaru kasumi no sekai wo
The shadow of me, longing for,
追いかけていく私の面影
Oikakete iku watashi no omokage
If only everyone could find happiness.
誰もが幸せになれたらいいのに
Daremo ga shiawase ni naretara ii no ni

You, so dear, are being tainted,
こんなにも愛しいあなたが汚されてゆく
Konna ni mo itoshii anata ga kegasarete yuku
In the mist.
霞の中で
Kasumi no naka de
You, so dear, are getting hurt,
こんなにも愛しいあなたが傷ついてゆく
Konna ni mo itoshii anata ga kizutsuite yuku
In the mist.
霞の中で
Kasumi no naka de
Like a lost child, you wander,
迷い子のようにあなたが彷徨っている
Mayoi go no you ni anata ga samayotte iru
In the mist.
霞の中を
Kasumi no naka wo
Your heart, so close yet so far,
届きそうなのに届かないあなたの心は
Todokisou na no ni todokanai anata no kokoro wa
Is in the mist.
霞の中に
Kasumi no naka ni

Scared of being seen through,
見え透かされることが怖くて
Miesukasareru koto ga kowakute
These casual, shitty words,
何気ないクソな言葉だけど
Nanigenai kuuso na kotoba dakedo
But the truth that can’t be voiced
声にならない真実は
Koe ni naranai shinjitsu wa
Is quietly tucked away in my heart.
胸の中そっと仕舞ったあるの
Mune no naka sotto shimatta aru no
If your wounds are
あなたの傷口が
Anata no kizuguchi ga
My last memory,
私の最後の思い出ならば
Watashi no saigo no omoide naraba
I want to bring you peace,
悲しい因果の忘却と
Kanashii inga no boukyaku to
And the sad cycle of forgetting.
安らぎをもたらしてあげたい
Yasuragi wo motarashite agetai

Knowing too much about people, you see nothing,
人の性を知り過ぎて何も
Hito no saga wo shirisugite nanimo
In your painful heart,
見えないあなたの痛ましい心に
Mienai anata no itamashii kokoro ni
I want to let you hear a love song,
震えるほどの愛の歌を聴かせてあげたい
Furueru hodo no ai no uta wo kikasete agetai
So trembling, as a melody,
この胸の中を旋律として
Kono mune no uchi wo senritsu toshite
To your heart in the mist.
霞の中のあなたの心へ
Kasumi no naka no anata no kokoro e
