ネオン未練

(English & Korean translations follow) Lyrics by Claude ―――――――――――――――― 冷えた肴に 灯る赤提灯 空いたグラスに ネオンがにじむ 拭く手に合わせ 夜がうねるわ あなたの席に 今夜も 紅をひく 柱時計が 静かに鳴いて 「今日も来ない」と わかってるのに それでも一杯 また注ぐの ネオン未練 消せない灯り 泣いてるくせに きらきら光る 赤提灯が ネオンみたいに ちかちか点滅 シンセに溶けて ネオン未練 あなたを待つわ 振られた夜も ふふっと鼻歌 ねえ また来るって 言ったでしょう 朝までずっと 灯しておくの 「また来る」なんて 軽い口づけ 残して消えた 場末の路地裏 刻んだ声が 霧笛に変わる 去ってくものほど よく響くのね 鏡の中で 滲んだ紅を そっと直して 笑ってみせる 震える手でも また注ぐの 終わってるって 知ってるのよ それでも消せない この灯り もう一杯だけ もう一杯だけ あなたの分まで 注いでいる 雨も いいわね… ふふ ネオン… 滲んで… らんらん… ネオン未練 消せない灯り 泣いてるくせに きらきら光る 港の夜が 白んでいっても 未練を抱いて まだ灯してる ネオン未練 あなたを待つわ 明けてく空も ふっと笑って ねえ また来るって 嘘でもいいの 朝が来たって 消さないでいる 三味線ひとつ 遠い霧笛 消せないままで 朝が来て ネオンはひとり… 静かに落ちる …おやすみ ―――――――――――――――― # Neon Longing (Neon Miren) Cold snacks left untouched, the red lantern flickers on Neon bleeds into the glass you emptied The night sways along with the hand that wipes it clean At your seat, again tonight, I paint my lips The old wall clock lets out a quiet cry "Not coming today either" — I know it, and still one more glass, I pour again Neon longing — a light I can't turn off Crying its eyes out, and still it glitters The red lantern, just like neon, blinks on and off, melting into the synth Neon longing — I'll be waiting for you Even the night you left me, a little laugh, a hummed tune Hey, you said you'd come again, didn't you I'll keep it burning all the way to morning "I'll come again" — a kiss as light as the words you left behind, then vanished down a back alley on the edge of town The voice you carved in me turns into a foghorn Funny how the things that leave ring out the loudest In the mirror, the rouge has run I fix it softly, and make myself smile Even with shaking hands, I pour again It's over — believe me, I know And still I can't turn off this light Just one more glass, just one more glass I'm pouring yours as well The rain's kind of nice too… hee hee Neon… running… la-la-la… Neon longing — a light I can't turn off Crying its eyes out, and still it glitters Even as the harbor night goes pale, I hold my longing close and keep it burning Neon longing — I'll be waiting for you At the breaking sky, too, I let out a small laugh Hey, "I'll come again" — I don't mind if it was a lie Even when morning comes, I'm leaving it on One shamisen note, a foghorn far away Morning comes, and still it isn't out The neon, all alone… quietly goes dark …good night ―――――――――――――――― # 네온 미련 (네온 미렌) 식은 안주에 빨간 초롱이 켜지고 빈 잔에 네온이 번져 잔 닦는 손길 따라 밤이 일렁여 당신 자리에, 오늘 밤도 연지를 발라 괘종시계가 조용히 울리고 '오늘도 안 오겠지' 알면서도 그래도 한 잔, 또 따라 네온 미련, 끌 수 없는 불빛 울고 있으면서 반짝반짝 빛나 빨간 초롱이 네온처럼 깜빡깜빡 점멸하다 신스에 녹아들어 네온 미련, 당신을 기다려 차인 밤에도 후훗, 콧노래 있잖아, 또 온다고 했잖아 아침까지 계속 켜둘 거야 '또 올게'라던 가벼운 입맞춤 남기고 사라진 변두리 뒷골목 새겨진 목소리가 뱃고동으로 변해 떠나가는 것일수록 더 잘 울리네 거울 속에 번진 연지를 살며시 고치고 웃어 보여 떨리는 손으로도, 또 따라 끝났다는 거, 알고 있어 그래도 끌 수 없는 이 불빛 딱 한 잔만 더, 딱 한 잔만 더 당신 몫까지 따르고 있어 비도 좋네… 후후 네온… 번져서… 랄랄라… 네온 미련, 끌 수 없는 불빛 울고 있으면서 반짝반짝 빛나 항구의 밤이 밝아 와도 미련을 안은 채 아직 켜두고 있어 네온 미련, 당신을 기다려 밝아오는 하늘에도, 픽 웃으며 있잖아, 또 온다던 거 거짓이어도 좋아 아침이 와도, 끄지 않을래 샤미센 한 가락, 먼 뱃고동 끄지 못한 채 아침이 오고 네온은 홀로… 조용히 꺼져 …잘 자요
