Translated Title:
Name*

I happened across a beautiful bird
When I ask “What’s your name?”
It says “I don’t have one”
But without one, I won’t be able to call for you


I’ve got it! I’ll give you my name
‘Cause it’s not like anyone ever calls out to me
When I did that, the bird said


“La la la la, la la la
I can fly and sing high in the sky
There’s nothing more wonderful than this
It’s so very fun!”


What you had, but that I didn’t
I started to walk forward, and you came to my side
At any moment now, I’ll touch you
I’ll be able to touch you


The beautiful bird is crying
When I ask “Why do you cry?”
It says “because I’m you”
And then the bird said


“La la la la, la la la
I’m you, reflected in the shoreline
You really don’t need your name that badly?
That’s so very sad”


La la la la, la la la
The beautiful bird sang
And its nameless song flew
Far away from the shoreline
Racing about the water’s surface


What you had, and I did too
I remember it now, you were by my side
I feel that now, I can call for you
I can call on and on


What I had, and who I was
It all comes welling up, right here
I feel that now, I can call for you
So I’ll call, I’ll call, I’ll call
I’ll call

美しい鳥と出会いました
名前は何?と聞くと
「名前は無い」と言うのです
それじゃ君を呼べないよ


そうだ僕の名前をあげるよ
誰も僕の事なんか呼んでくれはしないから
すると鳥は言ったんだ


「ララララ ラララ
私は空を高く飛び歌えるの
こんなステキな事は無いよ
とっても楽しいよ」


君にあって僕に無いもの
歩みだしたよ そばに来た
今にも君に触れるよ
君に触れる事が出来る


美しい鳥は泣いています
何で泣くの?と聞くと
「私はアナタ」と言うのです
そして鳥は言ったんだ


「ララララ ラララ
私は渚に写るアナタだもの
そんなに要らない名前なら
とっても悲しいね」


ララララ ラララ
美しい鳥は歌いました
名前の無いその歌は
渚からは遠ざかり
水面を駆け巡る


君にあって僕にあるもの
思い出したよ そばにいた
今なら君を呼べるよ
呼び続ける事が出来る


僕で在って僕に有るもの
溢れ出したよ ほらここで
今なら君を呼べるよ
呼ぶよ 呼ぶよ 呼ぶよ
呼ぶよ
