kanji & kana

    日差しに切り取られた
    市営球場から聴こえて来る
    ひと夏の熱狂は
    どれくらい風が吹けば醒めてくのか?

    自分の声が
    他人のように響くよ
    客観的過ぎるのだろう
    いつの日からか 僕は大人になって
    走らなくなった

    ミラージュ 遠くから見た時
    道の向こう側に水たまりがあったんだ
    近づいたらふいに消えてしまった
    目指して来たのに
    どこへ行った? あの夢

    芝生のスプリンクラー
    過ぎるその季節を止めようとする
    半袖を着た女(ひと)は
    カーディガンをいつ肩に羽織るのか?

    やりたいことは
    いつもいっぱいあったのに
    できない理由 探していた
    君と出会って 青春時代のように
    夢中になれたよ

    ミラージュ 僕が見ているもの
    それが真実でも幻でも構わない
    今 確かに 僕の目に映るなら
    逃げてしまっても
    追いかけたい この恋

    大事なものはいつだって
    あやふやな存在
    手を伸ばしても 何も触れられない
    でもそこにあるってこと
    信じるまっすぐさが
    生きてく力だよ

    ミラージュ 遠くから見た時
    道の向こう側に水たまりがあったんだ
    近づいたらふいに消えてしまった
    目指して来たのに
    どこへ行った? あの夢

english translation

    You can hear its sound
    From the City Baseball Stadium masked by sun glare
    How strong does the wind have to blow
    Before this summer frenzy will sober up?

    My voice resonates in the air
    As if it belongs to someone else
    I’m probably being too detached
    Since some unknown day, I’ve become an adult
    And I’ve stopped running

    Mirage, when seen from afar
    There was a puddle at the other side of the road
    But it was suddenly gone when the distance was closed
    I was coming for it
    Where has it gone? That dream

    The sprinkler on the lawn
    It is trying to stop the passing season
    The woman wearing short sleeves
    When will she put on her cardigan?

    Although there were so many things
    That I wanted to do
    I was finding excuses for why they were beyond me
    Then I met you, and felt like I was young again
    I was fascinated

    Mirage, the thing I see
    It doesn’t matter if it’s real or an illusion
    There’s no doubt it has entered my eyes
    Even if it runs away
    I still want to chase after it, this love

    Something important is always
    Something that is ambiguous
    Even if our hands reach out, there’s nothing we can touch
    But something exists there
    This candid faith
    Gives me strength to live

    Mirage, when seen from afar
    There was a puddle at the other side of the road
    But it was suddenly gone when the distance was closed
    I was coming for it
    Where has it gone? That dream
