魚たちのLOVE SONG (Sakana-tachi no LOVE SONG) – The fishes’ LOVE SONG


from Taiyou knock single.

——

In the water
Everything is
Pure silence
Or so I thought

No light
Is able to penetrate
And a deep darkness
Exists at the bottom

Even in that closed-off world
I want to sing the song of love
To let these meagre wishes
Turn into bubbles…

The fishes’ LOVE SONG
Yes, it surely does exist, right?
As long as there is a beloved someone…
Unable to be heard by us
An almost vanished singing voice reaches
And delivers strong emotions

Just close your eyes
And you’ll be able to hear
Somewhere faraway
The sound of spreading ripples…

No matter how beautiful the emotions
They are obstructed by a wall of water
As if sapping all strength
From the miracles prayed upon…

The fishes have words
And speak to each other, right?
Letting their emotions take shape…
Humming a melody
Carrying affection in their hearts
Like the echoes of the watery sound of romance…

At a corner of the wide wide ocean
I can see lots of spray leaping
On the blue water’s surface
That is surely
The fishes’ duet

Swimming on, like they’re singing

The fishes’ LOVE SONG
Yes, it surely does exist, right?
As long as there is a beloved someone…
Unable to be heard by us
An almost vanished singing voice reaches
And delivers strong emotions

水の中では
沈黙だけが
すべてなんだと
思っていました

どんな光も
辿り着けずに
深い暗闇が
底にありました

そんな閉ざされた世界でも
愛のうたを歌いたい
ささやかな願いが
泡になってしまおうと…

魚たちのLOVE SONGは
そうきっと存在するのでしょう
愛する誰かがいるのならば…
私たちに聴き取れない
消え入りそうな歌声は届いてる
募った想いを伝えている

瞳 閉じれば
聴こえるでしょう
遠いどこかで
広がる波紋を…

どんなキレイな感情も
水の壁が遮って
祈ってた奇跡が
力尽きてしまうように…

魚たちに言葉はある
お互いに会話をするのでしょう
自分の気持ちを形にして…
メロディーを口ずさんで
愛しさがその胸に運ばれる
恋の水音が響くように…

広い広い海のその片隅で
青い水面(みなも)に跳ねた水しぶきが
いくつも見える
あれは確かに
魚のデュエット

歌うみたいに泳ぎ続ける

魚たちのLOVE SONGは
そうきっと存在するのでしょう
愛する誰かがいるのならば…
私たちに聴き取れない
消え入りそうな歌声は届いてる
募った想いを伝えている
