Utakata

Ah, this wonderful world
I really hate it deep down
Ah, if I could savor this moment
What does it mean for me to exist?

If my voice is reaching you
If you’re listening to my voice
There’s just one thing I want to convey
So please don’t say anything sad
The happiness everyone longs for
Is like a bright day that’s been tainted

Why are people so beautiful? Why are they so ugly?
What lingers in the heart
Someday, that answer will be found, and now I’m living
I’ll take it all in.

Ah, in this wonderful world
I’m giving everything I have
Ah, if I’m going to fade away
Let’s celebrate the fact that I was born

I’m a fool lost in illusions
I should’ve known it from the start
Yet every day my heart was trembling
That dream from that time, so tightly bound
Can I say I’m alive when I can’t even let go of
The hesitation to throw it away?

Why do people shine? Why do they lose?
In the fleeting moment of the moon
So now, let’s embrace this limited joy
Shall we?
