Tsurukusa no hikouki

The creeper’s airplane

Lyrics: Tenten
Music: Yuma

An airplane flies up to the sunny* summer sky.
A shadow flickers in a puddle which seems to become a lake through these tears.
The creeper’s airplane is lifted by the fresh breeze.
At the half of this deep dream I can’t even return...

Have a look please, on this road I’m just a very small human being.
In the end I will die by drowning without any help.
That’s why you turn your back to me and pretend not to see.
For my beloved you I’m gulp down these tears.
I just can’t see my ‘tomorrow’.
There’s neither a guarantee nor assurance for the future of the two of us.
From the bottom of my heart I only wish for your happiness.

It’s impossible for me to make progress on this road in front of my eyes.
A backtrack is impossible.
I wonder what I’m going to lose as next if I lose you again....

With a sigh a body hides under the violet creeper.
With closed eyes we kiss each other and again I tell you “I love you.”

I can’t forget, I just can’t forget.
So I pass this love which is dressed in indifference.
Finally I reached** this place. Anyways, I can’t see tomorrow.
Where does my creeper’s airplane fly to?
I wonder where I am...? I wonder what place I’m allowed to face?
I can’t answer....
I just want to meet you again.

Translator’s notes
* = himawari is actually sunflower but yeah, a summer sky can’t be full of sunflowers, no?
** = lit.= Finally I groped along to this place.
