Life Beat Lyrics English Translation by Niina
The poet describes everyday scenes like meeting on a usual street and watching cherry blossoms scatter. A key line translates to, ‘Light up your days with your own steps.’ Niina champions being true to yourself, encouraging listeners to play their guitar even if no one hears it.
Jinsei no biito ni notte iru kaAre you riding the beat of life?
Machiawase wa itsumo no sutoriitoWe’re meeting up on the usual street.
Kanshou ni hitatteru jikan wa naiWe don’t have time to drown in sentimentality.
Jibun no rizumu ni notte ikiroLive your life riding to your own rhythm!
Haru ga owatte sakura mo chitte shimatteSpring has ended, and the cherry blossoms have scattered,
Dakedo seishun ni owari nante nai no sabut there’s no end to our youth.
Hibi o terase jibun no suteppu deLight up your days with your own steps,
Jamagararete mo ii karabecause it’s fine even if they get in your way.
Kimi no uso kimi no hontouYour lies, your truths,
Zenbu misete kurete ii karait’s fine to show me all of it.
Gitaa narase unto hizumaseta biitoPlay the guitar to a heavily distorted beat,
Kikoenakute mo ii sait doesn’t matter even if no one can hear it.
Kono jinsei ga utsukushiku aru you niSo that this life can be beautiful,
