[English]

僕の時価総額400円の心臓と

My heart, worth just 400 yen, and

絵に描いたような君の綺麗な心臓を

Your beautifully painted heart, just like a picture,

合わせてできたしわの数が

The number of wrinkles we've made together,

僕達の未来の価値だ

Reflects the value of our future.

残された時間が少ないのなら

If there's little time left,

崩れてく時間が増えてくのなら

And more time is slipping away,

零さないようにあわせて

Let's match in a way that prevents us from shedding tears.

変わらない

Nothing changes,

変われないよ 僕ら

We can't change,

今もしっかり握っている

No matter what, we hold on tightly now.

ちぎれない

Cannot be torn apart,

ちぎらないよ 僕ら

We won't tear it, not us.

今もしっかり繋いでる手

Holding firmly with our hands now.

...

...

僕の一生分なり続けている心拍と

My heartbeat that keeps going, like a lifetime's worth,

透き通るような君の綺麗な一拍を

And your pure, transparent heartbeat,

合わせてできた波の数だけ

The number of waves formed by our union,

僕達は揺らめきあってた

Reflects how we've swayed together.

過ぎていく時が早すぎるのなら

If time flies by too quickly,

有り余る隙間が悲しいのなら

And the gaps left behind are just so sad,

零さないようにあわせて

Let's match in a way that prevents us from shedding tears.

変わらない

Nothing changes,

変われないよ 僕ら

We can't change,

今もしっかり握っている

Holding firmly with our hands now.

ちぎれない

Cannot be torn apart,

ちぎらないよ 僕ら

We won't tear it, not us.

今もしっかり繋いでる

Holding tightly, now, our hands connected.

重なるひびを僕達は

The cracks that overlap, we,

流るるひびも僕達は

The cracks that flow, we,

思い出すこともなくなって

Will forget even to remember,

しまうんだろう

And just close them away.

しまうんだろうって

Close them away, that's what we'll do,

重なるひびを僕達は

The overlapping cracks, we,

流るるひびも僕達は

The flowing cracks, we,

思い出すこともなくなって

Will forget even to remember,

そんな

It's such a thing.

しわあわせで

A wrinkle of happiness,

変わらない

Nothing changes,

変われないよ 僕ら

We can't change,

今もしっかり握っている

Holding firmly with our hands now.

ちぎれない

Cannot be torn apart,

ちぎらないよ 僕ら

We won't tear it, not us.

今もしっかり繋いでる手

Holding tightly, now, our hands connected.

溢れ出す願い込めて僕らは

With overflowing wishes, we,

今から君の見てる方へと

From now on, to the side you're watching,

やるせない夢が覚めた頃に

When that helpless dream has awakened,

また、しわをあわせて

We'll again match in a wrinkle.

...
