今からお前に何話そうかな

What should I talk to you about now?

どうやってこの感じ伝えようかな

How should I convey this feeling?

少し長くかかるかもな でもね

It might take a little longer, but

頑張ってみるよ

I'll do my best.

神様もきっとびっくり

Even God would surely be surprised.

人ってお前みたいにできてない

People aren't made like you.

今世紀最大の突然変異

You're the greatest mutation of this century.

ってくらいにお前は美しい

You're that beautiful.

そんなお前の父ちゃんと母ちゃんの

Your father and mother,

心と心くっつきそうなほど

their hearts seem to be so close,

近くにいた二つの

two feelings that are

想いと想いがちっぽけな

so small,

時間なんてもののせいにしては

blaming it on something like time,

いつしか目と目も合わさず

before long, we won't even meet each other's eyes,

もう二度と聞こえない「ただいま」

and I'll never hear "I'm home" again.

そんな二人お前見つめる

You gaze at such a pair.

ウルっとした瞳でこう呟く

With teary eyes, you whisper,

...

...

「私の命は二人の愛の証

“My life is proof of our love,

そこには一つだって嘘はない

there's not a single lie in it.

そうでしょう？そうだと言ってよ」

Isn't that right? Say it is.”

「二人に愛はもうないと言うなら

“If you say there's no love between us,

私の命はすべて嘘にかわり...

then my life turns into a lie...

「時」に嘘をつかせないで」

Don't let 'time' lie to me.”

あの日二人交わした約束を

The light that connects

今につなぎとめる光が

the promise we made that day

今の君なの

is you now.

「父よ、母よ」と

“Father, Mother,”

震う声も 二人を

even the trembling voice and the tears

見て流るるその涙も

that flow while watching you,

半分コずつもらったのに

even though we each got half,

君がこの世に生まれた

you were born into this world.

奇跡を信じれないという

You say you can't believe in the miracle

君と僕とが出会えた

that you and I met.

奇跡を信じれないという

You say you can't believe in the miracle

同じとこに空けたピアス

of the same place where we both got our piercings.

お前のだけやけに光って見える

Yours shines so much more.

俺もいつか輝くかな

I wonder if I'll shine someday too.

お前みたいに世界を愛せるかな

I wonder if I can love the world like you do.

俺の心滅びようとも

Even if my heart perishes,

醜く朽ち果て

ugly and decayed,

息ひきとろうとも

even if I take my last breath,

その最期の一瞬だけでも

just for that final moment,

お前が見てた世界見てみたいの

I want to see the world you were looking at.

もう決めたもん 俺とお前

I've already decided, you and I,

50になっても同じベッドで寝るの

even when we're 50, we'll sleep in the same bed.

手と手合わせてたら血も繋がって

If we hold hands, our blood connects,

一生離れなくなったりして

and we might never part.

こんな夢をいつまでも見よう

Let's keep dreaming like this forever.

醒めなければいいって

Let's just say it would be nice if we don't wake up.

ことにしとこう

They say we call it a dream because we wake up, right?

醒めるから夢と呼ぶんでしょう？

If that's the case, let's give it another name.

って言うなら他に名前つけよう

Let's write "you" and read it as "love."

君と書いて「恋」と読んで

Let's write "me" and read it as "affection."

僕と書いて「愛」と読もう

If we do that, it seems like we won't be apart, right?

そうすりゃ離れそうも

Someday, I'll write a song like that,

ないでしょう？

about how you and I met.

いつかそんな歌作るよ

People just want to call it a miracle.

君と僕が出会えたことを

In this star born from a miracle,

人は奇跡と呼んでみたいだけ

everything else seems impossible.

奇跡が生んだこのホシで起こる

Whether it's the six-star astrology,

すべて奇跡以外ありえないだろう

or the great calamity,

六星占術だろうと

even if I'm a Jupiter person,

大殺界だろうと

and you're a Mars person,

俺が木星人で

even if you insist,

君が火星人だろうと

I'm still an Earthling.

君が言い張っても

No, but even if I were a Jupiter person,

俺は地球人だよ

it's just a neighboring star, right?

いや、でも 仮に木星人でも

I'll use my once-in-a-lifetime warp here.

たかが隣の星だろ？

たかが隣の星だろ？

一生で一度のワープをここで使うよ

一生で一度のワープをここで使うよ

...

...

君と僕とが出会えた

I want to believe in the miracle

奇跡を信じてみたいんだ

that you and I met.

君と僕が出会えたことが

Whether it's a miracle or whatever,

奇跡だろうとなんだろうと

just thank you.

ただありがとう

You say (I say),

君は言う （僕は言う）

“Because it's a miracle (because it's a miracle),

奇跡だから （奇跡だから）

it's beautiful, isn't it? It's wonderful, isn't it?”

美しいんだね 素敵なんだね

美しいんだね 素敵なんだね

...
