Utsusemi

Warainagara naiteiru doshaburi no ame no utsusemi
Kuruinagara utatteiru kimi wo daite.

Nakinagara waratteiru zubunure no mama no utsusemi
Kuruinagara utatteiru kimi wo daite.

Mabataki no aida ni boku mo kimi mo dare mo kieta
Maboroshi darou neko ga waratteiru.

Sora ni matte furisosoide
Ikutsu mono yume ya ai ga kimi no te ni.

Yoru wo matte furisosoide
Ikusen no hoshi ya ai ga kimi no me ni.

Mama ga yondeiru kaerou ame agari niji no kanata e
Kuruinagara utatteiru te wo tsunaide.

Furimuita sono toki kako mo mirai mo ima mo kieta
Maboroshi darou haha ga waratteiru.

Sora ni matte furisosoide
Ikutsu mono yume ya ai ga kimi no te ni.

Yoru wo matte furisosoide
Ikusen no hoshi ya ai ga kimi no me ni.

[Translation]

The cicada in the cloudburst cries while smiling*
Singing while going mad, I hold you.

The dripping wet cicada laughs while crying
Singing while going mad, I hold you.

In the space of a wink, I, you, and everyone else disappeared
It must be an illusion—that cat is laughing at me.

Dancing in the sky and pouring down incessantly
So many things…dreams, and love, in your hand.

Waiting for the night and raining incessantly
There are thousands of stars, and love, in your eyes.

Mother is calling, come home, to the other side of the rainbow where the rain has stopped
Singing while going mad, hold my hand.

When we turned around, the past, the future, and the present disappeared
It must be an illusion—my mother is smiling.

Dancing in the sky and pouring down incessantly
So many things…dreams, and love, in your hand.

Waiting for the night and raining incessantly
There are thousands of stars, and love, in your eyes.
