Genius English Translations
Shibayan - タイニーリトル・アジアンタム (Tiny Little Adiantum) (English Translation)
In the fairy tale mama read to me yesterday
The princess and the prince
Shared a kiss of love, but
I still don’t understand sweet romance
I had a dream. I’m dreaming
Of beloved gingerbread
That man quickly bowed his head, and asked me:
“Where are you going?” “What are you doing?”
I couldn’t say anything, and I cried
The one who started rap-tap-tapping on my downcast brow…
Was it you, I wonder? Am I wrong, I wonder?
I want to open my eyes, but I’m still scared
Sunset… somehow, it’s sad
Please, wait for me
Because I’ll call for you lots and lots very soon…
Stop saying things that seem so ordinary!
After all, I just want your true feelings
You say I’m still just a child, right?
I know that! I want to change, though
Please teach me, softly, softly…
Turn the key to a new world
I want to hug you from behind, or something like that
I know I’m just a bit immature
A candy pot floats in the fluffy sky
Let’s dance in the castle in the clouds!
If I cast just a little magic
I can meet my prince
