Hinageshi (Red Poppy)
"Ranma 1/2 Nettouhen" ending theme (1991)
kyou, Today,
ame ga furi-dashita no dakara because it started to rain,
yakusoku yabutte ie ni ita no Mm breaking my promise, I was at home, mm.
gomen, Sorry,
kirai ni natta no ja nakute it's not that I hate you,
nantonaku sou shitakatta I don't know why I wanted to do that.
hana wo ichirin kazatte-mita no
POTARI to shizuku namida mitai ni
I tried decorating with a single blossom,
which a tear-like drop quietly trickled down.
* hinageshi no hana de nakute yokatta
mujaki ni saku ki ni wa narenai
na mo nai sono hana wa watashi mitai ne
hissori hitori inoru no
I'm glad I'm not a red poppy;
I don't feel like blooming innocently.
That insignificant flower is like me.
Silently, I pray alone.
nee, You know,
ryoute awaseta toki ni dake when we just join [both] hands,
kami-sama omou no wagamama yo ne Mm it's selfish to think of God, mm.
demo, But,
kono setsunasa no wake-gurai He should explain to me
oshiete-kurete mo ii desho at least the reason for this misery.
umare-kawatte hana ni naru nara If I were reborn a flower,
KANARIYA-iro no hanabira ga ii I'd prefer canary yellow petals.
hinageshi ni natte oka no ue kara
kaze wo nagame oshaberi-suru no
sono hi no tameiki mo hoshi ni makasete
kodomo no you ni sakitai
Being a red poppy up on the hill,
I'd gaze at the wind and chat.
Leaving even my sigh that day to the stars,
like a child, I want to bloom.
* Repeat
