ネーブルオレンジ

Navel Orange

ネーブルオレンジ　一つだけ手にして

A single navel orange in my hand,

君の街まで電車に乗った

I took the train to your town.

春は何かを思い出させる

Spring reminds me of something,

切なくて　甘酸っぱい香りが誘うんだ

An emotional, bittersweet scent beckons me.

窓の外に雲ひとつない空

Not a cloud in the sky outside the window,

僕の気持ちは早送りされる

My feelings are fast-forwarded.

君に会えたら　何が言えるのだろうか？

If I could see you, what would I say?

スーパーマーケットに並んだ　あの季節

That season, lined up in the supermarket,

ネーブルオレンジ　両手で包んで

Navel orange, cradled in both hands,

恋の甘さを　今さら思う

I think about the sweetness of love, now of all times.

君が一番好きだと言った

You said, 'I like you the most.'

柑橘の青春はどこへ消えたのか？

Where did our citrus-flavored youth disappear to?

ネーブルオレンジ　頬に近づけて

Navel orange, brought close to my cheek,

この瑞々しさに接吻(くちづけ)したくなる

I want to kiss this freshness.

ボールみたいに上へと投げながら

While tossing it up like a ball,

今の現実はちゃんと受け止める

I'll properly accept the present reality.

そして　初めて降りた駅の改札は

And the ticket gate at the station I got off at for the first time,

僕にどんな物語　見せるのか？

What kind of story will it show me?

ネーブルオレンジ　なぜに握りしめて

Navel orange, why am I clutching it so tightly?

僕は知らない街へ来たのか？

Why did I come to this unfamiliar town?

この香りに惹かれ　どこかで君が

Drawn by this scent, if you're somewhere,

気づいてくれたなら　あの頃を語り合おう

If you notice, let's talk about those days.

少し厚めの　この皮のその中に

Inside this slightly thick peel,

僕が大切にしてた君がいる Ah

Is you, whom I cherished, Ah.

ネーブルオレンジ　両手で包んで

Navel orange, cradled in both hands,

恋の甘さを　今さら思う

I think about the sweetness of love, now of all times.

君が一番好きだと言った

You said, 'I like you the most.'

柑橘の青春はどこへ消えたのか？

Where did our citrus-flavored youth disappear to?

なんてセンチメンタルな記憶

What sentimental memories.

まさか　会えるわけなどないのに…

There's no way we could actually meet...

Ah それでもいい

Ah, but that's okay.

君が住んでいると聞かされた

I just wanted to see the town

街を一目見たかっただけだ

That I heard you were living in.

片想いネーブルオレンジ

Unrequited Love, Navel Orange.

ネーブルオレンジ

Navel Orange.

よろしくお願いします

Thank you very much.
