The translation is a bit sketchy, but I really love the message of this song.
何でもない日の祝い方 / The Way to Celebrate the Ordinary Days
Lyrics: JESSE
Music: RIZE
So you say that a
today where all you do is wait and wait has come?
A today where nothing
ever changes has come
You wake up and go to
sleep, go to sleep and wake up
Almost every day has
fallen into routine
There aren’t enough highs*
Today there is nothing
There is nothing but
the day called “today”
I had nothing to do,
so I sang
And then I made this
song
Get someone to say “Congratulations!”**
That’s the way to
celebrate the empty days
Get someone to say “You’re
amazing!”
Because today is an
ordinary day***
There aren’t many days
you can celebrate
Because there are so
few, I want to make more
I guess this is a song
to cheer on the people bored with today
Still, I’m singing it
It has to get better,
so, without letting your tears spill over,
If you sing, maybe
somehow it will happen****
Even if I’m being
ignored, I’m still singing*****
Get someone to say “Congratulations!”
That’s the way to
celebrate the empty days
Let’s party for today’s
sake
Let’s be happy for the
sake of tomorrow
Get someone to say “Congratulations!”
That’s the way to
celebrate the empty days
Get someone to say “You’re
amazing!”
That’s the way to
celebrate the empty days
“Congratulations!”
Get someone to say “Congratulations!”
“Congratulations!”
Because today is an
ordinary day
Notes:
*As in there aren’t
enough high points or exciting moments in the day
**Could also be “It’s
okay to say ‘Congratulations!’”, but I think this makes more sense
***Lit. “meaningless”
days, but I think what he means is the everyday/ordinary days
****, *****These lines
are a bit sketchy
