僕はまだ死ねない (Boku wa Mada Shinenai)

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
僕達が現世に産まれ落ちた 	bokutachi ga gensei ni umare ochita 	We were born into this present era
意味など無いのかもしれないが 	imi nado nai no kamo shirenai ga 	It may be that there’s no meaning in that, but
意味が無いと僕はやりきれないから 	imi ga nai to boku wa yarikirenai kara 	I can’t stand the thought that there’s no meaning
大袈裟を承知で聞いておくれ 	oogesa o shouchi de kiite okure 	So please forgive my hyperbole and listen to me
 	 	
例えば揺れる満員電車の中 	tatoeba yureru manin densha no naka 	For example, on a packed subway train
席に溢れたお年寄りの前で 	seki ni afureta o toshiyori no mae de 	When someone else gets up before me
先に誰かが譲って安堵する 	saki ni dareka ga yuzutte ando suru 	To offer their seat to an elderly person who couldn’t get one, I feel relieved
僕はその程度の人間だから 	boku wa sono teido no ningen dakara 	That’s the kind of person I am
 	 	
子供の頃に見た背中はもっと遠くて 	kodomo no koro ni mita senaka wa motto tookute 	The person whose back I was watching when I was little is farther away now
僕なんかじゃ届かないかもしれないけど 	boku nanka ja todokanai kamo shirenai kedo 	It may be that I can’t catch up to them now, but
 	 	
この小さな手が離れないように 	kono chiisana te ga hanarenai you ni 	So that our small hands won’t be pulled apart
君が悲しまないように 	kimi ga kanashimanai you ni 	So that you won’t be sad
僕の全てを捧げても 	boku no subete o sasagete mo 	Even if I have to offer up everything I’ve got
この小さな未来を誰も傷つけないように 	kono chiisana mirai o dare mo kizutsukenai you ni	So that no one can hurt this small future
僕の命が尽きるまでは 	boku no inochi ga tsukiru made wa 	Until my life has run its courseTo the best of my understanding of the song, what’s implied to come at the end of this and the other repetition of the chorus, what all the “so that”s and “even if”s apply to, is the song’s title–“I can’t die yet.”
 	 	
僕達が現世に産まれ落ちた 	bokutachi ga gensei ni umare ochita 	We were born into this present era
意味など無いのかもしれないが 	imi nado nai no kamo shirenai ga 	It may be that there’s no meaning in that, but
もしも意味があるのだとすれば 	moshimo imi ga aru no da to sureba 	If there were such a meaning…
それだけで僕は涙がこぼれた 	sore dake de boku wa namida ga koboreta 	Just thinking about that made me cry
 	 	
誰かのなんでもない今を唄う歌など 	dareka no nan demo nai ima o utau uta nado 	A song that sings about someone’s meaningless present life
有り触れてるものなのかもしれないけど 	arifureteru mono nano kamo shirenai kedo 	May be trite, but
 	 	
日々過ぎてゆく時間の中で 	hibi sugite yuku jikan no naka de 	As the days go by
移ろう季節の中で 	utsurou kisetsu no naka de 	As the seasons change
これがその”意味”だとしても 	kore ga sono ”imi” da to shite mo 	Even if this is all the meaning there is
 	 	
この小さな手が離れないように 	kono chiisana te ga hanarenai you ni 	So that our small hands won’t be pulled apart
君が悲しまないように 	kimi ga kana shimanai you ni 	So that you won’t be sad
僕の全てを捧げても 	boku no subete o sasagete mo 	Even if I have to offer up everything I’ve got
この小さな未来を誰も傷つけないように 	kono chiiaana mirai o dare mo kizutsukenai you ni	So that no one can hurt this small future
僕の命が尽きるまでは 	boku no inochi ga tsukiru made wa 	Until my life has run its course
