Asa no otozure wo shiraseru kane ga naru
Wow hitobito wa tsudou
Zutto mukashi kara nani mo kawarazu ni kono machi wa
Atarashii kaze ga fuku no wo osoreta
Kokoro ni wa ai ga ari mamorou to shita yakusoku ga
Sukoshi oosugita dake nan da
Machi wo yuku yo maajinaru man
Karafuru mafuraa maite
Itsumo chotto ukareta kibun
Nagare ni noru no ga nigate
Kaze no you ni maajinaru man
Arawarete wa kieru
Wasurerarenai hito ni naru no wa sukoshi saki no koto
Nichiyou no asa ni kare wa oidasareta kono machi wo
Soshite hitobito ga te ni ireta no wa nani
Motodoori no machi no keshiki?
Me ni utsuru no wa nazeka sukoshi
Sabireta itoshii wagaya
Machi wo detara maajinaru man
Youki na saakasu ni deau
Odoketa rizumu ni utainagara
Tsumetai kawa ni tobikomu
Hoshi wo kazoete maajinaru man
Tasogare ni tsunagaru
Wasurerarenai hito mune ni omoidashite ita
Machi no mukou e maajinaru man
Nagai nemuri no naka
Yume wo horu you ni ikite yuku itoshii hito wo mite ita
Kawaranai machi no woman
Kaze ni noritonde kita
Mita koto mo nai hana no tane sakaseta |
English
The bell rings signalling that morning has come
Wow, people gather
This town hasn’t changed at all since long ago
Afraid of the winds of change
I promised to protect the love in my heart
It’s just that that promise was a bit too big
He walks through the town, Marginal Man
Wearing a colourful scarf
Always a little cheerful
Unable to follow the crowd
Like the wind, Marginal Man
He appears and then disappears
It won’t be long before he’ll be unforgettable
On a Sunday morning, he was thrown out of this town
And what did people gain?
The town going back the way it was?
What I see is the home I love
A little desolate, for some reason
When he leaves town, Marginal Man
He finds a cheerful circus
As he sings to the comical rhythm
He jumps into a cold river
Counting the stars, Marginal Man
Becomes connected to the twilight
In my heart, I remembered that unforgettable person
Beyond this town, Marginal Man
In a long sleep
I watched that person I loved living as if carving out dreams
A woman in an unchanging town
He flew in on the wind
And sowed the seed of a flower I’ve never seen before |
