SALU - How Beautiful (english translation)

This might be a little off in places, but I tried.



How Beautiful

Lyrics: SALU
Music: Estra

If I think of you,
When I close my eyes,
I realize that the world that was spreading out before me
Was a beautiful one

I think of you,
A way to not think of you,
Somehow I can’t seem to come up with one,*
But a night that no one can escape is coming

Somehow, I have a feeling that it was something really important
I want to remember
I can’t remember

So many lies
So many flowers
So many tears (Oh lord)
So much love (Oh lord)
So much power (Oh god)
So many pills (Oh, oh god)
So many stars
How beautiful today is

The things I’ve been putting off,
They're going to start chasing after me
But I’m already so trapped**
Even if I face the heavens and raise up both hands,

Well, is there something I can do?
Well, what can I do?
If you feel like you’re gonna die tomorrow,
If you’ve got the will to do something, you can do anything
You can’t do anything
You can’t do anything
You need the will to do it
If you feel like you’re gonna die tomorrow, you can do anything

Somehow, I have a feeling that it was something really important
I want to remember
I can’t remember

So many lies
So many flowers
So many tears (Oh lord)
So much love (Oh lord)
So much power (Oh god)
So many pills (Oh, oh god)
So many stars
How beautiful today is

Coming out of the lukewarm hug of a blanket
Changing into soft-feeling cashmere
My attitude is “Hallelujah”
I learn from the news that someone died crossing over the highway***
That store is toxic
It’s open 24/7, pushing labour without rest

Letting in a draft isn’t a crime, it’s instinctual to let yourself be carried by the wind****
That girl that ran up to ask for a pen that time is just always on the go
In this life, in order to eat, you’ve gotta work*****
That girl wearing the Canada Goose jacket
In her loneliness, her Instagram is swelling like a balloon

That thing that I wanted to remember but can’t
I wonder what it was? I can’t remember
How can I remember?
Oh God, I wonder if it’s better that I don’t remember?
The sky being stained with darkness
It’s a symbol of the earth’s descent

Notes:
*,**,***,****,***** I’m really not sure about these lines

How Beautiful

Kimi no koto o kangaete
Hitomi o tojite-mitara
Hirogatteta sekai wa
Utsukushii mono deshita

Kimi no koto o kangaete
Kangaenai you ni shiteru mono

SO MANY LIES

SO MANY TEARS (OH LORD)*
SO MUCH LOVE (OH LORD)*
SO MUCH POWER (OH GOD)
SO MANY PILLS (OH, OH GOD)
SO MANY STARS
HOW BEAUTIFUL TODAY IS

Sakinobashi ni shite ita koto ga
Boku o oikakete kuru
Kore ijou nigerarenai yo mou
Ryoute o ten ni mukete hirogetemo

Jaa nani ga dekiru?
Jaa nani ga dekiru?
Shinu ki ni narya
Yaru ki ni narya nandemo dekiru
Nanimo dekizu

Yaru ki ni narya
Shinu ki ni narya nandemo dekiru

Nanika daiji na koto datta ki ga shite iru

Namaatatakaku tsutsunde kureru moufu o deru
Hadazawari no ii KASHIMIA
HARERUYA MY ATTITUDE
Kousa shiteru douro no ue sugisatteku jouhou
Choudokusei no takai ano mise 24/7 yasumi ga nai roudou

Sukimakaze wa gouhou kaze-makase no shoudou
PEN o motome hashitteru koto ano ko wa GOGO
Inochi taberu tame ni hataraku ano ko kiru KANADA GUUZU
Samishisa de kikyuu-mitaku fukuramu INSUTAGURAMU

Omoidashitai kedo mou omoidasenai koto
Nan datta ka omoidasenai omoidashiteku houhou
OH GOD omoidasenu hou ga ii no deshou ka
Yami ni somaru ano sora shizundeku kono chi no shouchou

Notes:
*The kanji said “oh load”, but I’m assuming it was supposed to be “oh lord”
