僕は知っている (Boku wa shitteiru) – I know

from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

When I look at the clear blue sky
Why is it
That I’ll always
Think of you?

Are you drenched in sorrow?
Those cloudy troubles
Have they disappeared for you?

Near (your dreams)
The wind (is strong)
It’s not always sunny days

I know
How hard you strive…
The obstacles you’ve overcome…
But the upward slope
Still continues on
You won’t admit defeat
As I watch over you from here

The backs of those seniors
Who are running
Ahead of you
You’ll be able to see them soon

Do you talk to your comrades?
When you’re feeling bitter
Do you let them know?

The goal (of your dreams)
You can’t (go at it alone)
Let’s share the joy!

I know
That regret you feel…
Even the tears you hide…
So someday
I hope you will be rewarded
Your future smile
I’ll pray for it here

I wonder again and again
Just what can I do
For you?

I know
How hard you strive…
The obstacles you’ve overcome…
But the upward slope
Still continues on
You and your comrades’
Dreams will come true
And you will smile. Until that day comes
We will wait

コケティッシュ渋滞中 (Koketisshu juutaijuu) – In a coquettish jam

from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

Those new clothes suit you so well
Maybe it’s because you’d let down your hair
Street corner runway, you wave your hand
At the pedestrian crossing

April’s wind (If it blows)
Girls (every single one)
Will be reborn (as adults)
As if spring’s magic had been wrought
They somehow appear more dazzling than yesterday

Coquettish
Caught in your jam
Everyone is charmed
(Rooted to the spot)
You’re cute
My heart is stolen
His and mine
Our feet halt
For you, pheromone girl

Green man, people mill back and forth
Every time you turn to me
Even though you’re not my girlfriend
I feel so proud

Since long ago (I know you well)
We were childhood pals (like siblings)
I was surprised (thought I was mistaken)
It’s been so long since I saw you
And before I knew it, I’m in love

Coquettish
I’m caught in a jam
Can’t move now
(From here)
You’re beautiful
But I can’t say that
Even though I’m by your side
I make no progress
Just your friend, a boy

Coquettish
Caught in your jam
Everyone is charmed
(Rooted to the spot)
You’re cute
My heart is stolen
His and mine
Our feet halt
For you, pheromone girl
