鯨工場

僕らの唄はどこに届いているんだろう。
I wonder where our song is reaching.
「鯨波の街」の海辺で誰か泣いてるの。
On the beach of the "town of warcries," someone is crying.

それに気付いたの。海の深くから、僕で遊んでる鯨の歌声。
They noticed it. From the depths of the ocean, a whale's singing voice playing with me.
幼い頃から耳鳴りの様に遠くで、彼らはそっと鳴き始めていたよ。
Distant like the ringing in your ears you've had since childhood, they started singing softly.

夢の中のあの話、本当は何処かで続いていた。
That story from the dream, continued somewhere after all.
本の家の少女たち、気付かないまま。
The girls from the house of books, they still haven't noticed.

僕らの声はどこに届いてゆくんだろう。
I wonder where our voice is reaching to.
雨の日の言葉は誰の声だったの。
Whose voice was it, that made those words you hear on rainy days?
僕らの声はどこに続いてゆくんだろう。
I wonder where our voice is continuing to.
体だけ無い鳥がどこかで見てるの。
Somewhere you can see a bird missing only it's body.

階段の上から眺めたベランダ、青いカーテンが隠してた景色。
The veranda you gazed at from above the stairs, the blue curtain was hidden scenery.
何も知らないで音符を置いてる。小さな部屋の中で何かを造ってた。
Not knowing anything, I put down notes. Inside of a small room, I put something to use.

街外れの工場に煙突が綺麗に並んで。
In a factory on the outskirts of town, the smokestacks stand neatly next to each other
錆びた鉄の匂いだけ微かに触れる。
I smell the faint odor of rusted iron.

僕らの唄はどこに届いているんだろう。
I wonder where our song is reaching.
帰り道の途中、見慣れない路地裏。
On the way home, an unfamiliar street.
僕らの唄はどこに続いているんだろう。
I wonder where our song is continuing.
首だけの鳥は神社から飛び立った。
A bird with only a neck takes off from the shrine.

僕らの朝はどこに隠してしまったの。
Where was our morning hidden?
鯨の歌声が夢を崩してく。
A whale's singing voice destroys our dream.
僕らの朝は次の唄で明けてゆくの。
Our morning will be opened with the next song.
「鯨波の街」の海辺で君は泣いてるの。
On the beach of the "town of warcries," you're crying.
