Lightbulb Words and poetry

I think that Hyde is a poet and one of his masterpieces is Evergreen; but I don't know the words of this song: everyone have the text in japanese of this song? Arigato gozaimasu!

Here are the Japanese lyrics:

窓の中の僕は
グラスの水に
差した花のよう

淡い日差しに揺れて
まどろみの底
気づく夏の気配

無情な時計の針を
痛みの分だけ
戻せたなら

あぁ、おかしな君との日々を
あふれるくらい
眺めるのに

This scenery is evergreen
緑の葉が色づきゆく
木漏れ日の下で
君が泣いている

優しい季節を呼ぶ
可憐な君は
無邪気になついて

そっと身体に流れる
薬みたいに
溶けていったね

This scenery is evergreen
儚いほど途切れそうな
その手をつないで
離さないように

This scenery is evergreen
可哀想にうつむいてる
悲しい瞳を
ぬぐってあげたいのに

近づく終わりに
言葉ひとつ言いだせない
This scenery is evergreen
愛しい人よ

Hyde

Think most of the people here have heard this single from hyde in 2001.
I like this song very much, so touching, although I dont really what's the meaning of the lyrics, is there anyone who can kindly summarize the meaning? doumo arigatou!!

Japanese Lyrics - Hyde

mado no naka no boku wa, gurasu no mizu ni, sashita hana no you,
awai hisashi ni yurete, madoromi no soko, kizuku natsu no kehai,
mujou na tokei no hari wo, itami no bun dake, modoseta nara,
aa, okashi na kimi to no hibi wo, afureru kurai, nagamerunoni,
This scenery is evergreen, midori no ha ga irozukiyuku,
komorebi no shita de, kimi ga naiteiru,

yasashii kisetsu wo yobu, karen na kimi wa, mujaki ni natsu ite,
sotto karada ni nagareru, kusuri mitai ni, toketeitta ne,
This scenery is evergreen, hakanai hodo togiresou na,
sono te wo tsunaide, hanasanai you ni,

This scenery is evergreen, kawaisou ni utsumuiteru,
kanashii hitomi wo, nugette agetainoni,
chikazuku owari ni, kotoba hitotsu iidasenai,
This scenery is evergreen, itoshii hito yo.

(ahh....such a beautifully written song. Hyde is such a romantic at heart.) The words are sad, but beautiful. It's so emotional. I could cry.
(Also I apologize now, if I have made any errors in spelling or whatever.It's 3:30AM, so I am tired.)

English Lyrics - (Translation by Lynne Hobday - I think)

I lie awake beside the window sill,
like a flower in a vase, a moment caught in glass,
The rays of Sunlight come and beckon me,
To a sleepy dreamy haze, a sense of Summer days,
If only I could stop the flow of time,
Turn the clock to yesterday, erasing all the pain,
I've only memories of happiness,
Such pleasure we have shared, I'd do it all again,

This scenery is evergreen,
as buds turn into leaves, the colors live and breathe,
This scenery is evergreen, your tears are falling silently,

So full of joy you are a child of Spring,
With a beauty that is pure, an innocence endures,
You flow right through me like a medicine,
Bringing quiet to my soul, Without you I'm not whole,

This scenery is evergreen,
I need you far too much, I need to feel your touch,
This scenery is evergreen, You've always been so dear to me,

This scenery is evergreen,
It sorrows at the sight, of seeing you so sad,
This scenery is evergreen, I wish that I could dry your tears,
The bells have rung, the time has come,
I cannot find the words, to say my last goodbye,
This scenery is evergreen, you've always been so dear to me.

*sniff*

Dang...didn't know that song. Nice imagery.
I just heard '666'-kinda heavy to listen to, but still it has that 'Glay'-ish melodic ring..

Cool.

Hey...
Look for 'After Forever' if you like Within Temptation.
They are even better!

Heart Evergreen videoclip

In Evergreen videoclip, Hyde is in the cage of a big bird: is he a big bird in a gold cage? I don't know. But the very interesting thing, is in the end of the song, when the camera zoom-out in the hall, there is down the stair a dead man! Who was he? Perhaps Hyde is the angel spirit of a dead man... very sad.

From what Hyde has said about Evergreen, he said he had a friend whose wife had passed away, so he wrote the song as if someone he loved had died.... You know, like putting yourself in someone elses place. He's never really discussed the video concept [or at least I don't think so]

But if you listen to the lyrics... I think you might be right. I think it's a sort of I can't live without you thing. Which would mean that man had taken his life. Of which would explain the whole ghost-like image Hyde is presenting in Evergreen.

Yes, Evergreen is currently my favorite Hyde song as well (this isn't counting any of his work with L'Arc~en~Ciel though)...I'm even listening to it right now! I like both versions, they're both very calming, although the English one might be considered by some to be a bit on the boring side...it's a bit more draggy and lacks the extra strings and woodwind instruments in the background...the saxophones in the Japanese version are just so nice...and of course Hyde's voice is absolutely wonderful too!

In "L'Arc en ciel.com" a girl says that Hyde is like a camaleont, for his continuous changes of dress, hair color&eyes; but in Laruku songs too, his sadness and his romanticism are... evergreen!
