lyrics

Original Japanese
//
あぁ、女のふりしても
嘘ばかり 辛いのよ
影が私に 話しかけるのは
咲きたいように その花は 咲くだけよ

あぁ、男のふりしても
木枯らしの 空回り
海の風が ささやきかけるのは
明日も昨日もない 後悔 海の貝


English translation
//
Even if I’m pretending to be a woman
It’s a lie and it’s a nuisance
A shadow keeps coming up to me whispering
That flowers grow the way they want to

Even if I’m pretending to be a man
It’s like a cold wind that doesn’t take me anywhere
The sea wind comes to me whispering
There is no tomorrow or yesterday
Only regrets and empty shells.


Traduction française
//
Même si je fais semblant d'être une femme
Ce n’est qu’un mensonge et c'est contrariant
Une ombre m'aborde pour me dire que
Les fleurs fleurissent comme elles le désirent.

Même si je fais semblant d'être un homme
C’est comme un vent froid qui ne mène nulle part
Le vent de la mer m'aborde pour me dire
Qu’il n'y a ni hier, ni demain

Now releasing their 2nd album, Hagata, they move fully in the space between, embracing the power of mythic pairings and identities lived at once. ... more
