月の箱舟 || Ark of the Moon

歌詞

月が照らす　夜空の青溶けて地に落ち
散らばる星の粒　どこまで飛べば触れられるだろう

満ちる月を雲が隠し　黒く翳る
笑うあなた　楽しそうに
風が流れた

夜の闇を泳ぐように
願い乗せ船は往く
遥か遠い星目指し　帰れるかもわからずに
険しく果てない航路が
心身を食いつぶす
僕らは何故旅に出る？
月光は何も語らない

母なる海　水面揺れる月は恋い歌う
薄紅の実りよ　垂れ落ちる蜜濡らして甘く

星が霞む　雨の匂い
宿る熱を　息を潜め 楽しそうに
扉 開いて

天の川を越えるなら
羽衣をまといたい
月には兎がいると　幼き日の記憶が言う
神様の腕に抱かれ
光の船は進む
ぐらり 機体が軋んで
流星の塵が天を舞う

星屑の海を泳ぐ
引力に導かれ
僕らの夢は生きている　投げ出された身を起こし
眼前に広がる青
甘く香る鈴なり
僕らは何故旅に出る？
無意味な問いと笑うだろう？

夜の闇を泳ぐように
誓い乗せ船は往く
遥か遠い星目指し　心に槍を掲げて
険しく果てない航路に
証明を刻んでいく
僕らは何故旅に出る？
箱舟は何も語らない

Translation

The moon shines, dissolving the blue of the night sky and falling upon the earth.
The beads of stars are scattered about. I wonder if we’ll be able to touch them if we fly far enough…

The full moon is covered by the clouds, and it is darkly concealed.
You were laughing cheerfully,
And the wind flowed by.

As if swimming in the darkness of the night
Goes the boat carrying our wishes.
It aims for a distant star, without knowing if it will be able to return.
This rugged, endless path
Consumes its mind and body…
Why did we depart on this journey?
The moonlight speaks of nothing.

The moon, reflected on the surface of Mother Ocean, sings of love.
O, light pink harvest! Your dripping, falling nectar soaks it, sweetly…

The stars grow hazy. It smells like rain…
That zeal resting inside me holds its breath, cheerfully.
The door opens.

If we cross over the Milky Way,
I want to wear the robe of angels.
The memories of my childish days speak of rabbits living on the moon, and
I am wrapped in the arms of God…
The ship of light advances forwards.
It shakes violently, and its fuselage creaks.
The meteor’s dust dances in the heavens…

We swim in a sea of stardust,
Guided forward by gravity.
Our dreams are alive – we raise our outstretched bodies.
The vast blue spreads out before us.
Those bunches of fruit smell sweet…
Why did we depart on this journey?
You’ll laugh if I ask such a meaningless question, right?

As if swimming in the darkness of the night
Goes the boat carrying our vows.
It aims for a distant star, carrying a javelin in its heart.
This rugged, endless path
Begins to carve proof into it…
Why did we depart on this journey?
The ark speaks of nothing.
