森のくまさん (Mori no kuma-san) – Bear in the woods
from Anata ga neteru aida ni album.
——
Under the cooling shade of a tree, I pat my own cold shoulder
Just where is that hot sunlight hiding?
I’m a bear in the woods, lost on a road without a path
So I move further into the woods
What will I achieve?
What have I achieved?
What’s right?
Dear gods of the trees, hidden in the woods
The smell of winter morning stings the back of my nose
Just where did that hot sunlight disappear to?
You’re a bear in the woods, lost on a road without a path
So move further into the woods
Who did you do it for?
Who was pointing the way?
What’s right?
Dear gods of the trees, hidden in the woods
Vexation
I’m interested to know what you had achieved
Vexation
What made you spout those smooth lies
Face forward, face forward, face forward
Just shut up
Face forward, face forward, face forward
Under the cooling shade of a tree, I pat my own cold shoulder
Just where is that hot sunlight hiding?

Aru hareta kokage hieta kata wo jibun de sasuru
Anna ni mo atsui hizashi wa doko ni kakureta no?
Watashi wa michinaki michi wo samayou mori no kuma sa
Dakara susumu mori wo
Nani ga dekiru no darou?
Nani ga dekita no darou?
Tadashii koto?
Kami-sama, mori ni kakureta kigi yo
Fuyu no asa no nioi hana no oku ni zukin to sasaru
Anna ni mo atsui hizashi wo doko de wasureta no?
Anata wa michinaki michi wo samayou mori no kuma sa
Dakara susume mori wo
Dare ni dekiru no darou?
Dare ga shimesu no darou?
Tadashii koto?
Kami-sama, mori ni kakureta kigi yo
Zannen munen
Nani wo te ni shita ki ni natterunda yo
Zannen munen
Nani wo perapera uso wo narabete
Mae wo mite mae wo mite mae wo mite
Tte urusee
Mae wo mite mae wo mite mae wo mite
Aru hareta kokage hieta kata wo jibun de sasuru
Anna ni mo atsui hizashi wa doko ni kakureta no?

ある晴れた木蔭 冷えた肩を自分でさする
あんなにも暑い日差しはどこに隠れたの?
私は道無き道を彷徨う森の熊さ
だから進む森を
何が出来るのだろう?
何が出来たのだろう?
正しい事?
神様、森に隠れた木々よ
冬の朝の匂い 鼻の奥にズキンと刺さる
あんなにも暑い日差しをどこで忘れたの?
あなたは道無き道を彷徨う森の熊さ
だから進め森を
誰に出来るのだろう?
誰が示すのだろう?
正しい事?
神様、森に隠れた木々よ
残念無念
何を手にした気になってるんだよ
残念無念
何をペラペラ嘘を並べて
前を見て 前を見て 前を見て
ってうるせえ
前を見て 前を見て 前を見て
ある晴れた木蔭 冷えた肩を自分でさする
あんなにも暑い日差しはどこに隠れたの?
