One Flower, One Grain

Hana Ichi Monme

One flower, one grain, this world is fleeting
花一匁 この世は儚き
Hana ichimonme kono yo wa hakanaki
One flower, one grain, swirling in impermanence
花一匁 渦巻く無常に
Hana ichimonme uzumaku mujō ni
Even if I try to break free, it still binds me
抗うように放せど繋ぐのだろう
Aragau yō ni hanasedo tsunagu no darō
My hands, my dreams, my heart
手を夢を心を
Te wo yume wo kokoro wo

Countless times before
数々前の
Kazukazu mae no
Even friends can turn to foes
友さえも敵に変わる
tomo sae mo teki ni kawaru
Like the waves that ebb and flow
寄せて返す波の如く
yosete kaesu nami no gotoku
I move forward, then back, that's my path
進んでは戻りて我行く
susunde wa modorite ware yuku

The proof of lives colliding
命と命をぶつけた証が
Inochi to inochi wo butsuketa akashi ga
The scars are foolishly dear to me
傷跡が馬鹿に愛しい
kizuato ga baka ni itoshī

One flower, one grain, this world is endless
花一匁 この世は果て無き
Hana ichimonme kono yo wa hate naki
One flower, one grain, can I take this cut?
花一匁 斬られて堪るか
Hana ichimonme kirarete tamaru ka
Now it's a serious fight, don’t talk about dreams
いざ真剣勝負 夢夢話すな
Iza shinken shōbu yume hanasu na
My hands, my dreams, my heart
その手を夢を心を
Sono te wo yume wo kokoro wo

Everyone now
誰もが今
Daremo ga ima
Hides their desires no more
欲望を隠しもせず
yokubō wo kakushi mo sezu
I want love, I want glory
愛が欲しい 栄光が欲しい
ai ga hoshii eikō ga hoshii
Just offering it up to the void
虚空へとただ味けに上げ
kokuu e to tada aji ke ni age

Sparking flames in my dry heart
渇いた心に火花を散らして
Kawaita kokoro ni hibana wo chirashite
Burning out, waking up
燃え尽きる醒がしい
moetsukiru samashii

One flower, one grain, this world is endless

Winning feels great, one flower, one grain
勝って嬉しい花一匁
Katatte ureshii hana ichimonme
Losing feels awful, one flower, one grain
負けて悔しい花一匁

Winning feels great, one flower, one grain
勝って嬉しい花一匁

After all, it’s a hellish isolated fairy tale
所詮は地獄の孤島御伽絵土
Shosen wa jigoku no kotō otogi edo
Like a tengu, I want to feel proud
お天狗様に胸晴れるような
otengu-sama ni mune hareru yōna
I want rules, I want beliefs
ルールが欲しい 信念が欲しい
RUURU ga hoshii shinnen ga hoshii
Let’s establish them, yes, let’s do it
制定しましょう そうしましょう

Chasing, can I take this cut?
追うむざむざ 斬られて堪るか

Is the clash alright?
角合はいいか?
