言いたいことが渋滞している

Thoughts are stuck in traffic

やりたいことやっちまいな

Just go ahead and do what you want

明日が来る保証なんかないや

There's no guarantee that tomorrow will come

言いたいこと言っちまうか

Should I just say what I want to say?

さ、景気づけなんだ 囃してくれんか

Come on, let's get hyped - can you cheer me on?

皆々一蓮托生乗ってけ

Everyone, let's ride together in this fate

宵闇に浮かぶ行灯

Lanterns floating in the twilight

凡々祝えやこの百鬼夜行

Celebrate this night of a hundred demons

詠み人は知れずアンノウン

The poet is unknown, it's all a mystery

安息頂戴　もと暗し

Grant me peace, it's dark as before

神輿担げば　騒ぎ出してら

When we carry the portable shrine, the noise begins

かっぴらいた瞳孔の無情さ

The cruelty of dilated pupils

極まっちゃうじゃんか

It's reaching its peak, isn't it?

我々はなんかなんかに

We are something, something

寄っかかっては　酔いどれ

Leaning on each other, we're drunk

まあ笑ったりまあ怒ったり

Well, laughing and getting angry

ええじゃないか　それぞれ

It's all good, each in their own way

本気ばっかじゃ遠慮ばっかじゃ

If we only act seriously, if we only hold back

Ah, flowers in a chaotic world, without a care

Just go ahead and dance, with you, the future looks bright

堂々ええじゃないか　尊し

Confidently, it's all good, it's precious

いむなや　続け無窮動

Keep going, endless motion

歌えば　愉しいな暮し

Singing makes life enjoyable

人も歩けば　移ろいでいくわ

People walk and change

時は非情さ　進んじゃうもんな

Time is ruthless, it keeps moving on

我々もひっきりなし

We too, continuously

空煽いでは気まぐれ

The sky stirs whimsically

ああ曇ったり　ああ変わったり

Ah, cloudy days, ah, changes

ええじゃないか　晴れ晴れ

It's all good, bright and clear

七転んでも　八揺らいでも

Even if I stumble seven times, even if I sway eight times

堂々ええじゃないか

Confidently, it's all good

ひとり往く道　あなたに交差して浮き十字

The path I walk alone intersects with you, forming a floating cross

ふっと懐かし　あの日においだれこの灯り

Suddenly nostalgic, who lit this light on that day?

みんなおんなじ　あれもこれもなんだ縁じゃないか

Everyone is the same, isn't it all connected?

よっしゃ極まったり　笑っちまうなら全部良しだわ

Alright, if it makes me laugh, then it's all good
