[English]

I'm ranked number whatever in this world, and you're somewhere in the same league.

I know my place; I don’t want to be laughed at for overstepping.

Yet, I get caught up in your smile, your shoulder-length hair, that outfit—which somehow makes me laugh with joy.

Your giggle, it's like a tease, and I can't help but become obsessed—stupidly so.

But even someone like me has blooms of love that have grown.

I have to admit these feelings, I can't hide them anymore.

Gender, age, family background, nationality, appearance, income, past—all of it—nothing matters.

That's what love is, right? Overcoming everything—that's what love means.

Without asking anyone, just on my own—today, I simply love you.

Today, I just love you.

If I had to judge, my feelings for you make me number one in this world.

It's funny how words that only make me blush fit perfectly—it's laughable.

If there's anyone bad enough to make you cry, just tell me.

I'll step out bravely, rush over, and protect you tremblingly.

Hey, divine power, only listen to me now—

Maybe someday you'll become only mine.

Your kindness, sincerity, a bit of mischief, your charm—all of it—

The brightness concealing shadows—each one pierces me.

If love is something uncontrollable, then perhaps love is a beautiful cruelness.

Without even resisting, naturally, I just love you.

I admire you, give up, and then drift away, only to meet again—a cycle repeats.

Time after time, I say goodbye inside myself, only to meet again—

All excuses, lies, and deceptions—everything—

Love is something that can't be fooled.

It's only natural, because you're truly beautiful.

Gender, age, family background, nationality, appearance, income, past—all of it—nothing matters.

That's what love is, right? Overcoming everything—that's what love means.

Without asking anyone, just on my own—today, I simply love you.

Tomorrow, I will just love you again.

That's what love is, isn't it?

[Japanese]

僕はこの世界で第何位で 君はこの世界で第何位だ

身の程はわきまえているつもりだ 身の程知らずは笑われちゃうから

なのに君のその笑顔に 肩までの髪に なんとかって服に

くすぐるようなその笑い声に 夢中になってバカみたい

でも こんな僕にも ちゃんと芽生えてくれた

この気持ちを認めてあげなくちゃね

性別も年齢も 家柄も国籍も 外見も年収も 過去も何もかも全部

関係ないのが恋だろ 乗り越えられんのが恋だろ

誰に断るでもなく 勝手に 今日もただ君が好き

今日もただ君が好き

君を想う気持ちだけで言えば 僕はこの世界で第一位だ

そんな恥ずかしいだけの言葉が しっくりくるのが 笑っちゃうよな

もしも君を泣かせるような 悪いやつがいたら 僕に言ってよ

威勢よく飛び出して駆けつけて 震えながら 守るから

ねえ こんな時だけ 神様よ 聞いて

いつか僕だけの君にならないかな

優しさも 素直さも 少しずるい 愛嬌も

明るさに　潜む影も　一つ一つが刺さって

どうしようもないのが恋なら 素敵な残酷さが恋なら

もはや抗うでもなく自然に 僕はただ君が好き　

憧れて 諦めて また浮かべて繰り返して

何回も 僕の中で さよならしてまた出会って

言い訳も ごまかしも 嘘も何もかも全部

通用しないのが恋だな

仕方ないよな 君が本当に綺麗だから

性別も年齢も 家柄も国籍も 外見も年収も 過去も何もかも全部

関係ないのが恋だろ 乗り越えられんのが恋だろ

誰に断るでもなく 勝手に 今日もただ君が好き

明日もただ君が好き

それでいいのが恋だろ

• 関係ないのが恋だろ

  ➔ using noun + の + が to nominalize the previous phrase and state it as the subject

  ➔ using potential form + ん to make informal negation, combined with の to nominalize and 関係する noun + が

  ➔ The informal potential negative form '**られん**' (from '乗り越えられない') plus '**の**' nominalizes the phrase, making it the subject of the sentence, which is 'love' ('恋').

• 何回も 僕の中で さよならしてまた出会って
