English Translation:


And without even noticing, I run over the falling flower petals

At the street corner a sweet smell drifts
From far beyond
As if it was a cry I heard before somewhere

My faint hopes are carried away by the night wind,
Can't they reach anywhere?
As if refusing, this world is swaying
and taking everything away
If it was a dream
thne I'll awaken soon enough
we haven't gotten anyhting done
but we'll keep going

As if detached from my midday lethargy, I float
As if overlooking the clouds forming, I fly

At the street corner the smell of blood drifts
From far beyond
As if it was a cry I heard before somewhere

The deep red flows visciously
The moon's on the verge of falling down
I want to break out of these stagnant days
so I can continue on, lookng innocent

My faint hopes are carried away by the night wind,
Can't they reach anywhere?
As if refusing, this world is swaying
and taking everything away
If it was a dream
thne I'll awaken soon enough
we haven't gotten anyhting done
but we'll keep going
