Medaka's Dream
Lyrics & Music by MARTH
Medaka's dream is to become nobody
she is happy just to live naturally
Embraced by the beautiful land and the water
She is happy just to know everything is one and united.
Not to become strong, not to be great
She is beautiful as she is
Why is a medaka so pretty?
Because she has no name, no national boundaries,
she is nobody, and she is nothing
only swimming in the brook
together with everything else.
Nobody knows how old a medaka is.
We don't care. We don't know.
She doesn't know her name,
her family or where she belongs.
She is neither bad nor good
Shining as she was born
Why is she so happy?
Not separate from everything
Not knowing when, not knowing where
She doesn't care what, nor who
as the tremendously wonderful and shining world,
Not deciding anything, not giving a name
Just to live naturally,
that is a medaka's dream.
There's no national boundaries, no race,
no ethnicity, no religion.
There's no politics, no philosophy,
no family and no self.
Just beyond a human creation
Therefore no war, no separation
That is what exists in reality.
The world of oneness, without any separation.
That is the truth
Like minnows, every being is united.
That is the truth, and is a dream of minnows.
Suffering is a human dream.
Home is the whole, and a family is the whole,
and self is the whole.
めだかの夢
作詞/作曲 MARTH
めだかの夢は 何にもならぬこと
自然なままに 暮らせるだけでうれし
美しき大地と 水にいだかれて
すべてがひとつな ことだけで うれしい
強くもならず 偉くもならず
生まれたまんまの 美しさ
めだかが可愛いのはなぜだろう めだかが美しいのは
名前もなく 国境もない 誰でもなく 何でもない
ただ小川をゆく すべてとひとつに
めだかの歳は だれにもわからない
そんなことは気にしない そんなことわからない
めだかの名前は 自分で知らない
どこの家だとか どこに属するとか
だめにもならず よくもならず
生まれたまんまで 輝いて
めだかが幸せなのはなぜだろう すべてからはなれてない
いつだか知れず どこかも知らず 何かも気にせず 誰かもない
とてつもなく すばらしい 輝く世界のまま
決めることなく 名づけもせず ただ自然なまま それがめだの夢
国境もなく 人種もなく 民族もない 宗教もなく
政治もなく 思想もない 家族もなく 自分もない
ただ 人がつくったものをこえて
ゆえに戦争もなく ゆえにわかたることなく
それが本当にあるもの
隔たりなき ひとつの世界
それが本当のこと めだかたちのように
すべてのもの つながっている それが本当のこと
それがめだの夢 苦しみは人の夢
ふるさとはすべてで 家族はすべてで 自分はすべてで
