ゆめくいしょうじょ [Yume kui shi ujo] [English translation]

The bougainvillea flowers bloomed,

Up upon the water tower

Searching among the lost stars,

Up into the wrinkled sky

Nowhere to be,

No stories to read

And storks

Have taken the babies far away

Even your worst dreams,

I'll eat them all for you

Let the pain, pain, go away,

With calming song...

The bougainvillea flowers bloomed,

Up upon the water tower

The dawn looking like hydrangeas,

And the sleeping waterway clear

Trembling...

You're pretending not to listen

Dozing...

It just won't stop hurting you

The stories of your memories:

Tell them to me, in all the vagueness of their forms

I'll drink up even the darkness,

And let out a breath, a faint voice

Oh, while the outlines have been lost,

Here, a lullaby for you alone!

Even your worst dreams,

I'll eat them all for you,

As your tears pain me inside...

Even when, with all too much cruelty,

You're drowned by the night, stay at my side

This morning, we dreamt together;

A dream that frightened me to take in,

A pale dream that drank the light...
