ビキニの空の消えない火
(The fire that won’t disappear in the sky of Bikini)

words by Kyoko Fukuyama

西の空に　偽りの太陽　現れて
いつも側にいた幸せ　奪い逃げ行く

白い珊瑚　命もがれて　灰になり
人間の手は死をもてあそび　時を消してゆく

悲しくて　そしてまた悲しくて
青い海の静けさが　たまらない

遠すぎて　それはただ遠すぎて
風に思いたくしても　届かない

そして今も　偽りの太陽　抱えてる
だけど海の流した涙を　僕は忘れない

僕は忘れない 		A false sun appearing in the western sky
Stealing away the happiness we have always had

The living white coral reefs becomes ash
As the hands of men play with death, the progress of time disappears

There is sadness… and again more sadness
The blue sea’s silence is unbearable…

Too far   That is just too far
Even if our feelings are on the wind, they do not reach

And even now, the false suns are in the hands of men
But I will not forget the tears that flowed from the sea

I will not forget
