Translation/非公式の英訳

I crammed one in and lost one. I cram two in and they’re dyed white.
The cold ice remains unmelting. They’re just words that can’t be exchanged now.

Faced with someone’s signals, I cowered and looked the other way: “I could change.”
I couldn’t say it and raised my head to a sky of bluffs.
I started running. The bubbles longing for the distant blue world vanished in the wind.
The long-awaited colours of daybreak won’t come so rainbow flowers float.
I gently kissed a pink jellyfish.

I closed my eyes, wandered alone, then opened them.
Flapping clear wings, my heart was etched and encircled.
I began to no longer understand.

With stagnant regrets, I was pretentious and sought love.
My tears flow and fall, mixed with the pretty raindrops.

The distant blue world and the love I longed for were shining.
Only pain pierced and rippled the water’s surface.
Even your smile will become a momentary rainbow.

I reached out but couldn’t touch the downpouring, shining blue world.
I hung my head, with the cheers and my future self who I witnessed in a dream.

I started running in the suspended sky. I’m not scared, so my heart is rugged.
I pile up the round stones which sparkle with a flash and tumble over.
Small sparks scatter with the water and moon, gently, forever.
Ah, ah…
