Translation of the song 赤い花 artist Akina Nakamori

ひとりきり　すくいあげる

I rescue by myself

指のあいだ　こぼれてゆく日々

The days spilling through my fingers

あのひとが　残したのは

That this person has left me

光さえも　呑み込む砂漠よ

Is a desert that gulps even the light down

あぁ　心は泣き叫ぶけれど

Ah, my heart cries and shouts

こんな乾いた世界じゃ　

But in this dry world

どんな声も響かない

No voice resounds

風よ　お願い　さらわないで　二度と在り処を捜せぬように　

Wind, please don't sweep away you can't find my position anymore

深く埋めるから　朽ちるまで　思い　眠らせて

Since I bury it deeply, let my love sleep until it rots

最後の涙をあげましょう　二度と咲かない花のために

I want to give my last tears for a flower that won't bloom anymore

赤いその色が　溶けるまで　せめて　見届けさせて

Let me see it with my eyes at least until its red color melts

めぐりあう偶然は

The coincidence of meeting casually

優しさにも　ナイフにも変わる

Becomes tenderness and a knife

耐えられぬ　いたみでも

It's an unbearable pain

どうしてなの　追いかけてしまう

But, why I chase you?

ねぇ　あたしをいっそ切り裂いて

Tear me up in pieces soon

何も感じないほどの　

Until I don't feel anything

傷をつけて去っていってよ

Hurt me and go away

今は　お願い　おしえないで　すべてを捨てて行ける理由を

Now please, don't tell me your reasons to leave everything

遠く輝いた　愛までも　嘘と　言わないで

Don't tell me that even the love that shone far is a lie

最後の涙が落ちたなら　二度とあなたが見えないように

If I spilled my last tears is for not seeing you anymore

歩き続けるの　どこまでも　錆びた　景色の中を

I'll keep walking anywhere through a rusty landscape

風よ　お願い　さらわないで　二度と在り処を捜せぬように　

Wind, please don't sweep away you can't find my position anymore

深く埋めるから　朽ちるまで　思い　眠らせて

Since I bury it deeply, let my love sleep until it rots

最後の涙をあげましょう　二度と咲かない花のために

I want to give my last tears for a flower that won't bloom anymore

赤いその色が　溶けるまで　せめて　見守りたいと…

I want to watch over it at least until its red color melts
