English:
These poems written of my love for you,
I’ve been sending them for 15 years straight
And there’s still no reply,
And there’s still no reply
The first year, I was reckless
I wrote each and every day without fail
I licked stamps with insistence,
Sending you my heart’s spit
The second year, I was still reckless
My house setting ablaze wouldn’t even catch my attention
In fact, my clothes caught fire from below,
And by the time I noticed, only the collar was left
In the third year, I calmed down
I’d already reached the limits of literature
I publicized my mixi journal,
And my MyMixis were maxed out
In the fourth year, I wrote for a magazine,
And I branched out into social issues
I decided to release a poem compilation,
And I quit being a salaryman
These poems written of my love for you,
I’ve been sending them for 15 years straight
And there’s still no reply,
And there’s still no reply
By the fifth year, I was a pro poet
I captivated women 20 to 34
But since I was so earnest,
I saw other girls as inexperienced pansies
By the sixth year, my body was ruined
I’d already passed 2,000 poems
Not a bone hadn’t been broken,
Not an organ hadn’t been damaged
In the seventh year, I was in perfect form
So today, I’ll compare you to something
Perhaps you’re like extreme ironing
Perhaps you’re like a compound inner product space
Even in the eighth year, I didn’t change
So today, I’ll compare you to something
Perhaps you’re like winning every match in 16 sumo tournaments
Perhaps you’re like an AMPA glutamine receptor
These poems written of my love for you,
I’ve been sending them for 15 years straight
And there’s still no reply,
And there’s still no reply
On the ninth year, I had an accident
Apparently I suffered quite a blow to the head
And though I’d forgotten my own name,
I remembered only that I loved you
Through the tenth year, through the eleventh year,
My memories didn’t return
And yet, I loved you
All I could want was your reply
Through the twelfth year, through the thirteenth year,
My memories didn’t return
But I still loved you;
That was all I had
Even by the fourteenth year, they still hadn’t come back
Every day was frightening and uneasy
I just wanted a glimpse at you
I just wanted a word to you
In the fifteenth year, my memories returned
I remembered everything, and burst into tears,
Because I remembered…
That you died 15 years ago
These poems written of my love for you,
If they kept piling up, would they someday reach you?
In your former room,
Every day, they stacked upward
I couldn’t see you anymore,
And I kept loving you
But I thought we’d meet again,
And you disappeared again
These poems written of my love for you,
I’ve been sending them for 16 years straight
And there’s still no reply,
And there’s still no reply
Kanji:
君への愛を綴ったポエムを
送り続けて１５年
返事はまだ来ない
返事はまだ来ない
１年目はがむしゃらだった
毎日毎日欠かさず書いた
執拗に切手を舐めた
君に届け僕の唾液
２年目もがむしゃらだった
家が燃えても気づかぬ程
服が下から燃えていき
気づけば襟しか残ってない
３年目にはこなれてきた
もはや文学の域に達した
ｍｉｘｉの日記で公開した
マイミクがカンストした
４年目に雑誌に投稿した
社会問題にまで発展した
ポエム集の出番が決まった
僕はサラリーマンを辞めた
君への愛を綴ったポエムを
送り続けて１５年
返事はまだ来ない
返事はまだ来ない
５年目にはプロポエマーだ
Ｆ１層に持にうけた
だけど僕は一途だから
他の子はひじきが生えた大根に見える
６年目に体を壊した
すでにポエムは２千を越えた
折れたことない骨がない
壊していない内蔵がない
７年目に完調した
今日は君を何に例えよう
エクストリーム・アイロンがけかな
複葉内積空間かな
８年目も僕は変わらない
今日は君を何に例えよう
幕下１６枚目の全勝優勝かな
ＡＭＰＡ型グルタミン受容体かな
君への愛を綴ったポエムを
送り続けて１５年
返事はまだ来ない
返事はまだ来ない
９年目僕は事故にあった
ひどく頭を打ったらしい
自分の名前も忘れた僕だったが
君が好きな事だけは覚えた
１０年目も１１年目も
記憶は戻って来なかった
それでも君が好きだった
ただただ返事が欲しかった
１２年目も１３年目も
記憶は戻って来なかった
まだまだ君が好きだった
それしか持っていなかった
１４年目にもまだ戻らない
毎日が怖くて不安で
君を一目見たかった
君に一言言たかった
１５年目に記憶が戻った
全部分かって泣き出した
僕は思い出してしまった
１５年前君が死んだことを
君への愛を綴ったポエムを
重ねいけばいつか届くかな
君のだった部屋に
毎日放り込んだ
君がもう見えなくたって
愛し続けてやるんだ でも
また会えると思ったよ
君はまたいなくなった
君への愛を綴ったポエムを
送り続けて１６年
返事はまだ来ない
返事はまだ来ない
