ぼくにピアノを弾かせて ♥ Boku ni Piano o Hikasete ♥ Let Me Play the Piano

好きだなんて言わないから

Suki da nante iwanai kara

I don't say how I love you,

届けなんて思わないから

todoke nante omowanai kara

I don't think you'll ever know,

忘れてしまっていいから

wasurete shimatte ii kara

it's better to forget,

どうかぼくにピアノを弾かせて

dōka boku ni piano o hikasete

so please let me play the piano.

昨日ケーキ屋の前で

Kinō kēkiya no mae de

Yesterday I caught sight of you

きみの姿を見かけたよ

kimi no sugata o mikaketa yo

in front of the cake shop.

後から追いついた男に

Ato kara oitsuita otoko ni

You smiled nicely

きみは優しく微笑んだ

kimi wa yasashiku hohoenda

at the man who followed you out.

何も言えずにいるぼくの

Nani mo iezu ni iru boku no

While I was there speechless,

前をきみが通り過ぎる

mae o kimi ga tōrisugiru

you walked right in front of me.

楽しそうなきみの笑顔

Tanoshisō na kimi no egao

Looking like you were having a good time,

向けられたのはぼくじゃない

mukerareta no wa boku ja nai

your smiling face was not aimed at me.

きみを知って

Kimi o shitte

When I came to know you,

毎日がしあわせだった

mainichi ga shiawase datta

everyday was happy.

今度はきみが

Kondo wa kimi ga

Now it's your turn

しあわせになるんだね

shiawase ni naru n da ne

to be happy, right?

好きだなんて言わないから

Suki da nante iwanai kara

I don't say how I love you,

届けなんて思わないから

todoke nante omowanai kara

I don't think you'll ever know,

忘れてしまっていいから

wasurete shimatte ii kara

it's better to forget,

どうかぼくにピアノを弾かせて

dōka boku ni piano o hikasete

so please let me play the piano.

きみのために書いた曲も

Kimi no tame ni kaita kyoku mo

The pieces I wrote for you,

きみのために歌った唄も

kimi no tame ni utatta uta mo

the songs I sang for you,

きみに知られず捨てられることを

kimi ni shirarezu suterareru koto o

I happily think of them being discarded

しあわせに思うんだ

shiawase ni omou n da

without you knowing about them.

最後にこの手に残った

Saigo ni kono te ni nokotta

Though I think of snapping in two

指に馴染んだペン軸を

yubi ni najinda penjiku o

the penholder that the fingers I have left on me

ふたつに叩き折ろうとして

futatsu ni tataki orō to shite

have become accustomed to,

出来ず譜面台に戻す

dekizu fumendai ni modosu

I can't do it and put it back on the music stand.

しあわせなきみの隣

Shiawase na kimi no tonari

Happy as you are,

あいつが歩く

aitsu ga aruku

he's the guy walking next to you.

だけどほんとはぼくが

Dakedo honto wa boku ga

But really it was I

そこにいたかった

soko ni itakatta

who wanted to be there.

言葉にしたら嘘だから

Kotoba ni shitara uso da kara

If I put it in words it'd be a lie,

思い出にはできないから

omoide ni wa dekinai kara

it's not something I can remember,

聞いてくれなくていいから

kiite kurenakute ii kara

I prefer you didn't hear it,

どうかぼくにピアノを弾かせて

dōka boku ni piano o hikasete

so please let me play the piano.

きみを想うセレナーデ

Kimi o omou serenāde

A serenade for you,

ぼくに捧ぐレクイエム

boku ni sasagu rekuiemu

a requiem offered to me,

オブリガートは雨の音

oburigāto wa ame no oto

the obbligato is the sound of rain.

「きみのことが･･･」

"Kimi no koto ga …"

"I …"

「好きだ」なんて言えないから

"Suki da" nante ienai kara

"… love you"—I can't say it,

きみがぼくを忘れたとしても

kimi ga boku o wasureta to shite mo

so even if you were to forget me,

この歌が永久になるように

kono uta ga towa ni naru yō ni

so that this song may last forever,

ぼくにピアノを弾かせて

boku ni piano o hikasete

let me play the piano.

ぼくにピアノを弾かせて

Boku ni piano o hikasete

Let me play the piano.
