Genius Translations
Aoi Teshima - Tehrru’s Song/Teruu no Uta (English Translation)
[Verse]
Above the clouds threatened by the fall of night
Always flying alone
A hawk surely feels sadness
Inside a wind that blocks out even sound
Those wings that grip the sky
And have no chance to rest…

[Chorus]
What can we compare a heart to?
This heart, like an eagle
What can we compare a heart to?
Full of sadness that seems to dance in the sky

[Verse]
In the shadow of a rain-flecked rock
Always blooming small
A flower surely feels hopeless
Inside the rain that mutes even its color
Its light peach petals
Without a hand to appreciate them

[Chorus]
What can we compare a heart to?
This heart, like a flower
What can we compare a heart to?
Full of the hopelessness of being battered by the rain
[Verse]
On a road with no one passing by
Walking together with me
You are surely lonely too
Walking the fields of buzzing insects
We are together but
In the end, will leave so much unsaid

[Chorus]
What can we compare a heart to?
This heart that journeys alone
What can we compare a heart to?
Full of the loneliness of solitude?
