東京事変 (Tokyo Jihen):林檎の唄

私の名前をお知りになりたいのでしょう
でも今思い出せなくて哀しいのです

働く私に名付けて下さい
お呼びになってどうぞお好きな様に
五月に花を咲かす私に似合いの名を

木通が開いたのは秋色の合図でしょう
季節が黙って去るのは淋しいですか

泪を拭いて顔を上げて下さい
ほらもうじき私も実を造ります
冬には蜜を淹れて貴方にお届けします

私が憧れているのは人間なのです 啼いたり笑ったり出来ることが素敵

たった今私の名が分かりました
貴方が仰る通りの｢林檎｣です
美味しく出来た実から毎年お届けします

召しませ!　罪の果実

You must want to know my name
But sadly, I don't remember it.

Please give me a working name,
Call me as you please
With a name that suits me when I'm blooming in May

The flowers of Akebi are open, is that a sign of the forthcoming Autumn?
Isn't it sad that the seasons leave in silence?

Please, wipe your tears and raise your head
Look, I will try to create a fruit myself
I will add honey to the flavor of Winter and deliver it to you.

What I long to be is a human being.
It must be lovely to do things like crying and laughing

But I see that now you have found a name for me
You are really right, it will be "Apple"
I have created a delicious fruit and i will deliver it to you every year
Please appreciate
My sinful fruit.
