[English]

ぴんと立てた指の先から

From the tip of my pointed finger,

爛と光って見える

It shines dazzlingly,

ぱんと開けた口の奥から

From the depths of my wide-open mouth,

今日も火星が見える

I can see Mars again today.

穏やかに生きていたい

I want to live peacefully,

休符。

Rest.

あぁ、わかってください

Oh, please understand,

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

普通の日々　普通のシンパシー

Ordinary days, ordinary sympathy,

僕が見たいのはふざけた嵐だけ

All I want to see is a ridiculous storm.

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

それにランタンも鏡もいらない

And I don't need a lantern or a mirror,

僕の苦しさが月の反射だったらいいのに

I wish my pain was just a reflection of the moon.

ぴんと立てたペンの先から

From the tip of my pointed pen,

芯のない自分が見える

I can see a coreless me.

しんと静かな夜にさえ

Even on a silent, still night,

蘭の花弁が映える

Orchid petals stand out.

深く眠らせて

Let me sleep deeply,

休符。

Rest.

優しく撫でて

Stroke me gently,

火星でランデヴー

Rendezvous on Mars.

惰性の日々　理想は引力

Days of inertia, ideal is gravity,

僕が見たいのは自分の中身だけ

All I want to see is what's inside me.

自分へランデヴー

Rendezvous with myself.

それに音楽も薬もいらない

And I don't need music or medicine,

僕の価値観が脳の反射だったらいいのに

I wish my values were just a reflection of my brain.

ぴんと立てたしっぽの先から、

From the tip of my pointed tail,

糸のやうなみかづきがかすんでゐる

A thread-like crescent moon is fading.

休符。

Rest.

あぁ、いらいらするね

Ah, it's frustrating,

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

惰性の日々　理性の毎日

Days of inertia, days of reason,

君に足りないのは時間と余裕だけ

All you need is time and space.

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

そこに銃弾も花火もいらない

I don't need bullets or fireworks there,

火星の大地がチョコと同じだったらなぁ

I wish the Martian soil was just like chocolate.

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

さよならあの地球の引力

Goodbye to that Earth's gravity,

僕が見てるのは言葉の光だけ

All I'm seeing is the light of words.

火星へランデヴー

Rendezvous with Mars.

それにランタンも鏡もいらない

And I don't need a lantern or a mirror,

僕の苦しさが月の反射だったらいい

It would be nice if my pain was a reflection of the moon,

のに

But it's not.

Gramática:

• ぴんと立てた指の先から

  ➔ Adjective + に + Verb (立てる) + た (past tense) + Noun + の + 先 + から: From the tip of the noun that was verbed.

  ➔ This line uses the structure "A (adjective) に verb た B (noun) の 先 から", which means "from the tip of B that was A-ly verbed". Here, "ぴんと立てた" means "erected sharply", and "指の先" means "fingertip". So, the whole phrase means "from the sharply erected fingertip".

• 爛と光って見える

  ➔ Adverb (onomatopoeia) + と + Verb (光る) + て + 見える (to appear)

  ➔ This structure describes how something appears. "爛と" is an onomatopoeia for something shining brightly, 光る means "to shine", and 見える means "to appear/to be seen". The て form connects the shining action to the appearance. So it means "appears to shine brightly".

• あぁ、わかってください

  ➔ Verb (わかる - to understand) + て + ください (please)

  ➔ This is a simple request. Using the て form of a verb followed by ください creates a polite request. It means "please understand."

• 僕が見たいのはふざけた嵐だけ

  ➔ Noun + が/は + Verb (見る - to see) + たい (want to) + のは + Adjective (ふざけた - foolish) + Noun (嵐 - storm) + だけ (only)

  ➔ This sentence uses the "Noun が/は Verb たいのは…だけ" pattern to emphasize what the speaker wants to see. "見る" is "to see", "たい" expresses desire, "ふざけた" means "foolish/ridiculous", and "嵐" is "storm". The entire line means "The only thing I want to see is a foolish storm."

• それにランタンも鏡もいらない

  ➔ それに (Besides/Moreover) + Noun + も + Noun + も + Verb (いる - to need, negative form: いらない)

  ➔ "それに" means "besides/moreover". The particle "も" indicates "also/neither/nor". The negative form "いらない" of the verb "いる" (to need) means "don't need". So, "ランタンも鏡もいらない" means "I don't need a lantern, nor a mirror".

• 僕の苦しさが月の反射だったらいいのに

  ➔ Noun (苦しさ - suffering) + が + Noun (月 - moon) + の + Noun (反射 - reflection) + だったら (if it were) + いいのに (I wish)

  ➔ This sentence expresses a wish or hope that something were different. "苦しさ" is "suffering", "月の反射" is "moon's reflection", "だったら" is "if it were", and "いいのに" means "I wish/I hope". Therefore, the whole sentence means "I wish my suffering were the moon's reflection". It's an expression of longing for something impossible.

• 糸のやうなみかづきがかすんでゐる

  ➔ Noun (糸 - thread) + の + やうな (like/resembling) + Noun (みかづき - crescent moon) + が + Verb (かすむ - to be hazy/dim) + でいる (progressive form, old style => ゐる)

  ➔ "糸のやうな" means "like a thread/resembling a thread". "みかづき" means "crescent moon". "かすむ" means "to become hazy/dim". The old-fashioned form "でいる" is used, appearing as "でゐる" in older texts, to show a progressive state (being hazy). Thus, the entire line means "A thread-like crescent moon is becoming hazy/dim."
