Taniyama Hiroko/ lyrics: Taniyama Hiroko
Sing for me Coocoo with your pretty voice
Tell me you love me
My beloved bird, you belong to only me
So always sing by my side
Your silently mumering voice
I can still hear it even now?certainly, but
That's just a sound the wind carried from the sea
An illusion of a person who can't be found
A long, long lonely time
I wait for a person who can't come home
It was I who trapped myself in here
In a cage woven from willow branches
And even though there is no one
who will turn the screws in my back for me...
Sing for me Coocoo with your pretty voice
Say you love me
If I can I want to put you in this birdcage
Lock it up and trap you there.
No matter what your wishes may have been
I wanted to grant them all for you
But now only wishes remain here
You went away - forever - on a journey far away
In a house on the hill overlooking the sea
Only dust gathers silently
It was I who trapped myself in here
In a cage woven from willow branches
While waiting for the day
I can return to the arms that made me
