嘘月 [usotsuki] [English translation]

Raindrops have fallen, Blossoms have fallen

Cheeks slightly blushing is what I’ve recalled then

I’m always drinking this bucket filled with moonlight to the brim

Not even joking, the night is just like that

Its taste a bit wispy and almost transparent

Sure you can tell me

“I see” as you smile in turn

But to this day I am waiting for you

Summer’s behind me, the town has turned silent

After a long day I’m back to the room here

Night has set in now, I’m all alone gazing at such a beautiful moon

Not even joking, the tears I’ve shed back then —

Had all just been fractions of unrefined jewels

Sure you can tell me “I see” as you smile in turn

Can’t seem to recall your voice for some time now

Both love and memories perished in silence

I’ve walked through the beach unknown to the wind yet; that summer — my aim

All I desire is a proper parting

As if this moment is all but a dream

Unable to give voice to a single thing

To this day I am still waiting for you

I have grown older, a single year older

Devoid of all things, this room has met with the spring now

Via a ladle, its bottom cleanly taken off, I am gulping down love

Not even joking, it’s utterly tasteless

The more that I drink — this thirst just keeps escalating

Sure you can tell me “I see” as you smile in turn

As I’m expecting the night to arrive

Your humming is everything I desire

As if this moment is all but a dream

Unable to give voice to a single thing

To this day I am still waiting for you

I have completely forgotten your eyes

I cannot fathom the shape of your mouth

Unable to give voice to a single thing

No longer am I still waiting for you

Your nose is something I just can’t cognize

Your cheeks are over the reach of my mind

Not leaving even the shortest of goodbyes

Day by day you are becoming the night

(Not even joking, the night is just like that

The summer's taste reaches to almost transparent)
