Laughter

• 歌手: Official髭男dism

歌詞:

[日本語]

[English]

鏡の中を覗いても 羽根ひとつも見つからないけど

Even when I look into the mirror, I can't find a single feather

空を待ち焦がれた 鳥の急かすような囀りが聞こえる

I can hear the urgent chirping of a bird longing for the sky

鉄格子みたいな街を抜け出す事に決めたよ 今

I've decided to break free from this city that feels like iron bars, right now

それを引き留める言葉も 気持ちだけ受け取るよ どうも有難う

I'll accept only the feelings that try to hold me back, thank you very much

失うものや 諦めるものは 確かにどれも輝いて見えるけど

The things I might lose and the things I might give up all seem to shine brightly

秤にかけた 自分で選んだ 悔やむ権利も捨て去ってた

Weighing it all, I had thrown away the right to regret my own choices

翼は動きますか？本当に飛べますか？

Do my wings move? Can I really fly?

YesもNoも言わずに真っ直ぐに空を見てた

Without saying yes or no, I was looking straight up at the sky

鳥の名前はラフター ケージを壊した

The bird's name is Laughter, it broke the cage

YesでもNoでもなくて 飛びたいとはしゃいでる声だけで

Not yes or no, just the voice excitedly wanting to fly

膝を抱えた昨日までの自分を 乗り越えたラフター 今日も歌い続けた

I overcame the self that hugged my knees until yesterday, and Laughter kept singing today

自分自身に勝利を告げるための歌

A song to declare victory over myself

...

...

本当の正しさってものを 風の強さに問い詰められて

The true righteousness is questioned by the strength of the wind

行くべき道を逸れて 他の鳥の航路へ迷い込むこともある

Sometimes I stray from the path I should take and wander into the routes of other birds

乱気流の中でさざめく 光の粒を探して ほら

In the turbulence, I search for the shimmering particles of light, look

たとえ紛い物だったとしても 自分にとっての正しさを

Even if it’s a fake, I’ll try to create what’s right for me

創造してみるよ 大事にするよ

I’ll cherish it

人格者ではなく 成功者でもなく いつでも今を誇れる人で在りたい

I want to be someone who can always be proud of the present, not a person of character or success

そんな希望抱き 未来図を描き 手放さず生きていたいだけ

Holding onto such hope, I want to draw a vision of the future and live without letting go

現実は見えますか？保証は出来ますか？

Can you see reality? Can you guarantee it?

YesもNoも言えずに答えに詰まっていた過去を

Carrying the past where I was stuck unable to say yes or no

背に乗せたラフター 予想を覆した

Laughter rode on my back and overturned expectations

ゴールや距離ではなくて 絶えず響いてた声こそが

It’s not about the goals or distances, but the voice that resonated constantly

孤独な夜にサーチライトにしてた あの光だった 今やっと気付いた

That light was the one I used as a searchlight on lonely nights, I finally realized now

前例のない大雨に 傘も意味を為さない それでも胸は熱くなって

In unprecedented heavy rain, even an umbrella is useless, yet my heart grows warm

海鳴りよりも強く 稲妻よりも速く 羽ばたいて前途を目指して

Stronger than the roar of the sea, faster than lightning, I flap my wings aiming for the future

...

...

翼は動きますか？本当に飛べますか？

Do my wings move? Can I really fly?

YesもNoも言わずに真っ直ぐに空を見てた

Without saying yes or no, I was looking straight up at the sky

鳥の名前はラフター ケージを壊した

The bird's name is Laughter, it broke the cage

YesでもNoでもなくて 飛びたいとはしゃいでる声だけで

Not yes or no, just the voice excitedly wanting to fly

膝を抱えた昨日までの自分を 乗り越えたラフター 今日も歌い続けた

I overcame the self that hugged my knees until yesterday, and Laughter kept singing today

自分自身に勝利を告げるための歌

A song to declare victory over myself
