I threw together a quick English translation for anyone who needs it: “Are you still alive out there?” “Does the song continue on?” In this corner of this world are you Still thinking those trivial thoughts? "Are you still alive out there?” “Does the song continue on?” In this corner of this world are you Still thinking those trivial thoughts?

If love has stopped loving Then let’s somehow leave our egos behind In the end, everyone truly wished For that world to continue on a little longer Is there some meaning in that?

Even if I am already gone Please keep singing as you are In this corner of the world …I’m still thinking those trivial thoughts
