七日前
クダンが枕元
「明日は地獄」と
でも
クダンはとうに逝ったよ

あたしは
あんたに焦がれ
まないたの鯉
はねるまもなく
出汁にされ
とろ火で

だけどね
どうせみんな
明日までもたない
酔って　惚けて
底なし沼の
夢にしずむ

あったかい春
まったく寝てばかり
ねえ、あんたと
煮凝りぐらししたい

煮凝りくらししたい
浮かびも沈みも
ないままの
底なし沼

Such a warm spring,
All we do is sleep away the days.
Hey, darling,
I just want a life
Like nikogori with you.
A life like nikogori,
Neither floating nor sinking,
Just suspended,
In this bottomless swamp.

Translation
-------------------------------------------
[Verse 1]
Seven nights ago,
A Kudan* whispered by my pillow,
Foretelling doom:
"Tomorrow will be hell."
But
That Kudan is long gone now.

*Kudan is a creature from Japanese folklore, said to have the body of a cow and the face of a human, and is known for delivering ominous prophecies before dying shortly .Its presence foreshadows disaster.

As for me,
I burned for you,
Like a carp on the chopping board—
No chance to leap,
Just tossed into the broth,
Simmered slow,
Boiling down to nothing.

[Verse 2]
Tonight again,
Rumors of plague
Swirl in the streets,
While Kudan prints
Sell like hotcakes.

But you know,
None of them will last till morning.
They'll drink, they'll melt away,
Sinking into bottomless dreams,
Like a swamp with no end.

[Chorus]
Such a warm spring,
All we do is sleep away the days.
Hey, darling,
I just want a life
Like nikogori* with you.
A life like nikogori,
Neither floating nor sinking,
Just suspended,
In this bottomless swamp.

*Nikogori is a savory jelly made from fish broth, which solidifies when cooled.
