English translation

I don't say how I love you,
I don't think you'll ever know,
it's better to forget,
so please let me play the piano.

Yesterday I caught sight of you
in front of the cake shop.
You smiled nicely
at the man who followed you out.

While I was there speechless,
you walked right in front of me.
Looking like you were having a good time,
your smiling face was not aimed at me.

When I came to know you,
everyday was happy.
Now it's your turn
to be happy, right?

I don't say how I love you,
I don't think you'll ever know,
it's better to forget,
so please let me play the piano.

The pieces I wrote for you,
the songs I sang for you,
I happily think of them being discarded
without you knowing about them.

Though I think of snapping in two
the pen-holder that the fingers I have left on me
have become accustomed to,
I can't do it and put it back on the music stand.

Happy as you are,
he's the guy walking next to you.
But really it was I
who wanted to be there.

If I put it in words it'd be a lie,
it's not something I can remember,
I prefer you didn't hear it,
so please let me play the piano.

A serenade for you,
a requiem offered to me,
the obbligato is the sound of rain.

"I …"

"… love you" — I can't say it,
so even if you were to forget me,
so that this song may last forever,
let me play the piano.

Let me play the piano.
