Shizukana Umi
Macaroni Empitsu • From “Physical Mind”
Shizukana Umi Lyrics Translation – Physical Mind Soundtrack
The songwriter uses the image of a quiet sea to describe finding peace amidst turmoil. A key line says, ‘Let’s live an authentic life today in the heart of this weary age.’ The words mix self-reflection with a call to stay grounded in difficult times.
Kokoro wa sono manma tsutawaranai karaHearts don’t come across exactly as they are,
Kotoba no shigoto ga fueru bakari daso words have more and more work to do.
Wakattenai yo na omae tte yatsu waYou really don’t understand, do you?
Tte wakatte yaren no wa ore dake da neBut I’m the only one who can truly understand someone like you.
Nante naOr so I’ll say.
Koi no kazu bakari kazoete itaraIf I keep counting the number of times I’ve loved,
Ai no katachi ga mienaku natta yoI’ll lose sight of what love actually looks like.
Wakatchaita kedo wakatchaita kedoI realized it, I finally realized it though,
Sukutte kureru no wa anata dake dattathat you’re the only one who ever saved me.
Kawatchainai no sa nannimo naani moNothing’s changed at all, nothing at all.
Ranbou no saki ni hana wa sakanakuteFlowers don’t bloom from acts of aggression,
Kikoete ita oto mo daibu mae ni kietaand the sounds I once heard faded away long ago.
Ittai doko de machigaetan dakkeWhere on earth did I go wrong?
Naa ikanai de yo aisuru hito yoHey, don’t leave me, my love.
Kazarannai kyou no inochi de iyou kutabireta jidai no mannakaLet’s live an authentic life today in the heart of this weary age.
Modoranai you ni tatte iru shizukana umiI’m standing by a quiet sea so I don’t turn back.
Nemuranai yoku o haide yukou yakimawashita jidai no saichuu deLet’s shed our restless desires in the midst of these scorched times.
Shizumanai you ni matte ita shizukana umiI’ve been waiting by the quiet sea so I don’t sink.
Kokoro o nozoite shirakeru yoriInstead of looking into the heart and feeling let down,
Kotoba no shiwa dake fuyashite yukelet’s just keep adding more meaning to our words.
Wakattetanda yo na omae wa itsumoYou’ve always understood, haven’t you?
Tte wakatte yaren no wa ore dake da neBut I’m the only one who can truly understand someone like you.
Nante naOr so I’ll say.
