Supuutoniku

Kogda muzhchina umiraiet
S nim izchezaiet vsio:
Ego pervyi sneg,
Ego pervyi pocelui,
Ego pervaia draka. [1]

Chiisai koro kiita hanashi wo
Ima omoidashiteta
Supuutoniku[2] no raikaken
Namae wa nante ittano kana?
Anata no senaka wo mitsume nagara
Yatto kizuita
Mou aenaitte koto

Kurooka kurooka[3]
Boku wa saki ni ikuyo
Kurooka kurooka
Kitto kaette kite

Kuroomu iro no kapuseru
Hontoni aishiterunoni
Nan'no tameni to ka
Doushite to ka
Kangaerarenai mou

Nanokabun no sanso to mizu
Dareka no tsuyoi negai to
Supuutoniku no raikaken
Nidoto akanai tobira ga shimaru
Anata no shiranai tooi basho de
Kurashiteku nante
Onaji kimochi ni narenai nante

Kuroomu iro no kapuseru
Kon'na ni aishiteru no ni
Mienai yami e to
Ano mabushii toki mo kieru

Kurooka kurooka
Boku wa
Kurooka kurooka
Kitto

Sora kara yami e to
Suikomareteshimau
Mienai yami e to
Atatakatta yuki no hi mo kieteku

Kuroomu iro no kapuseru
Hontoni aishiteru no ni
Nan'no tameni to ka
Doushite to ka
Kangaerarenai mou
