Awa Uta (Song of Bubbles)

## Lyrics

* Japanese

泡沫では　隠し切れぬ物

焦がれた　遠き、春

籠女の性（さが）　赦して下さヰ

堕ちて咲いた花を

刹那の目合（まぐわ）ひ

阿吽の吐息は桃色に

湯船で揺れてる愛が　赫く染まれば

もしも産まれ変われるなら

同じ路を歩みたいと

誰かの夜を砥ぐ様な間に

数え切れぬ粘り

慰めが　其処に或れども　私は眠る

良く似ている

“泡”と“欲”ならば

擦れば　擦る程

溢れ出して　中が弛むばかり

千夜一夜過ごし

惚れた弱み　活かされて

終わらぬ夢を

その笑顔　愛おしさばかり

心乱され　躙られて　傘をさす色街

煌びやか？

胸に秘めてるイロハなら

告げど告げど、救われない

私を奪う男の残影（かげ）に

貴方を探してる

Ooh——　Ooh——

Ooh– Ooh–

身揚がる程の　想いを

蹴り上げてみた

只、美しい朝の中

静けさは　優しさ　溢れた泪だけ

裏を返す事象（こと）は無く

もしも産まれ変われるなら

同じ路を歩みたいと

誰かの夜を砥ぐ様な間に

数え切れぬ粘り

胸に秘めてるイロハなら

告げど告げど、顕われない

私を奪う男の残影（かげ）に

貴方を探してる

慰めが　其処に或れども　私は生きる

Utakata de wa kakushi kirenu mono kogareta tooki haru

Kagome no saga yurushite kudasai ochite saita hana wo

Setsuna no maguwai aun no toiki wa momoiro ni

Yubune de yureteru ai ga akaku somareba

Moshimo umare kawareru nara onaji michi wo ayu mitai to

Dareka no yoru wo togu you na mani kazoe kirenu nebari

Nagusame ga soko ni are domo

Watashi wa nemuru

Yoku nite iru awa to yoku naraba

Kosureba kosuru hodo

Afure dashite naka ga yurumu bakari

Senya ichiya sugoshi

Horeta yowami ika sarete owaranu yume wo

Sono egao itooshisa bakari

Kokoro midasare niji rarete kasa wo sasu

Iromachi hirabiyaka

Mune ni himeteru iroha nara

Tsugedo tsugedo suku warenai

Watashi wo ubau otoko no kage ni

Anata o sagashiteru

Uh uh～

Miagaru hodo no omoi wo keri agete mita

Tada utsukushii asa no naka

Shizukesa wa yasashisa afureta namida dake

Ura wo kaesu koto wa naku

Moshimo umare kawareru nara onaji michi wo ayu mitai to

Dareka no yoru wo togu you na mani kazoe kirenu nebari

Mune ni himeteru iroha nara tsugedo tsugedo ara warenai

Watashi wo ubau otoko no kage ni anata o sagashiteru

Nagusame ga soko ni are domo watashi wa ikiru

Fleeting bubbles can’t be hidden

Yearning for that far away spring

Please forgive the gender (nature) of this lost girl

This fallen bloomed flower

In the moment of sex

the breath of both people tinges pink

If the flickering love is stained bright in the boat

If I was to be born again

I want to walk the same road and

while honing someone’s night

with an incalculable stickiness

Comfort is here, away from your wife, I sleep

They resemble each other

“Bubbles” and “Desire”

The more they touch the more they’re blurred

Overflowing, the inside relaxes

Spending one thousand and one nights

The weakness of falling in love, I make the best use of

this endless dream

That smile is just lovable

My heart is disturbed, trampled, I’m holding up an umbrella in the red-light district

Is it dazzling?

If I hide the basics in my heart

Saying it won’t save me

In the traces (shadow) of the man who took me

I search for you

Ooh– Ooh–

These feelings, to the point of paying my master for a day off,

are flung up

Only in this beautiful morning

the quiet brings gentle tears to overflow

There is no matter (thing) that can turn this the other way

If I was to be born again

I want to walk the same road and

while honing someone’s night

with an incalculable stickiness

If I hide the basics in my heart

Saying it won’t make it visible

In the traces (shadow) of the man who took me

I search for you

Comfort is here, away from your wife, I live
