Lyrics Utada Hikaru – Teiku 5 (テイク 5; Take 5)

Text:

Romanized:

Tsumetai kusa no ue ni taorekomi
Hoteru karada wo kakushitai

Mafuyu no seizatachi ga watashi no koibito

Zutto matteita no

Kyou no kibun wa saikou desu
Zetsubou mo kibou mo nai
Sora no youni sukitootteitai

Awanai hou ga kenka suru koto mo
Genmetsushi au koto mo nai

Naifu no you na kaze ga
Watashi no supiido agete iku no
Teiku 5

Donna jibun ga shiawase desu
Seikou mo shippai mo nai
Sora no youni sukitooteitai

Kooto wo nuide naka e hairou
Hajimari mo owari mo nai
Kyou to iu hi wo sunao ni ikitai

Japanese:

冷たい草の上に倒れ込み
火照る体を隠したい

真冬の星座たちが私の恋人
ずっと待っていたの

今日の気分は最高です
絶望も希望もない
空のように透き通っていたい

会わないほうが ケンカすることも
幻滅し合うこともない

ナイフのような風が

私のスピードあげていくの
テイク 5

どんな自分が幸せです
成功も失敗もない
空のように透き通っていたい

コートを脱いで中へ入ろう
始まりも終わりも無い
今日という日を素直に生きたい

English translation:

Collapsing on top of the cold grass
I want to hide my burning body

These mid-winter constellations are my lovers
I have been waiting all this time

My mood today is the highest
Like the sky that has no despair nor hope
I want to be translucent

If we do not meet, we won’t fight
With no chance for disillusionment

The wind that is like a knife
Helping to increase my speed
Take 5

What version of myself makes me happy?
Like the sky that has no success nor failure
I want to be translucent

Take off my coat and step inside
With no beginning and no end
I want to live this day we call today honestly
