Translation of the song 砂の果実 artist Miki Nakatani
砂の果実
Sand fruit
あの頃の僕らが
The us from around that time
嘲笑って軽蔑した
Laughed at and desdained
恥しい大人に
Shameful adults
あの時なったんだね
It was how it turned out to be
少年くさい君の
When you were a clumsy young boy
誇りが鬱陶しくて
You were prideful and depressing
真心をからかったね
Your sincerity was laughed at
愛さえはぐらかして
Even being denied affection
生まれて来なければ
If you hadn't been born at all
本当はよかったのに...
The truth is, I'd be glad, and yet...
あの日 君に投げた
That day your voice was cast aside
声に復讐されてる
I am avenging it
弱虫の偽善者は
The hypocrite coward
僕の方だったよね
Was actually me, right
そこから笑えばいい
So it's alright to go ahead and laugh
堕落してゆく僕を
At my degradated self
あの頃の僕らが
The us from around that time
嘲笑って軽蔑した
Laughed at and desdained
空っぽの大人に
Completely hollow adults
気づけばなっていたよ
But when we noticed, we became them
生まれて来なければ
If you hadn't been born at all
本当はよかったの......?
The truth is, would I have been glad?
僕は砂の果実
I am the sand fruit
氷点下の青空
A below freezing blue sky
僕のこと誇りにしてるって
When told I was becoming prideful
つぶやいた声に
In a murmuring voice
泣きたくなる 今でも
I felt like crying, even now
この胸が騒ぐ 悲しい懐しさで
This chest becomes uneasy, with a sad nostalgia
君を想うたび
I think of you during the trip
あらかじめ失われた
Knowing beforehand I would lose you
革命のように
Like a revolution
