사과 하나를 그려 – 소란 (SORAN)

When will I be able to finish?
Not knowing if I’m doing well
I became afraid
And couldn't even bring myself to start

Countless notes and rhythms
So vast they make me feel distant
With these trembling hands
The sound won't come out the way I want

Even if the end seems nowhere in sight
Just for starting, you’ve done a good job
Don’t rush, you know you can make it—
Draw an apple

When I stop my hands
I hear other sounds
"How can they be so good?"
I start to feel anxious

As many as there are keys
My head is filled with worries
Is it okay to go on like this?
Or is it already too late?

Even if the end seems nowhere in sight
Just for starting, you’ve done a good job
Don’t rush, you know you can make it—
Draw an apple

Surely, at first
I believed in myself
I heard that melody

I want to keep drawing it out
Even if it takes longer than I thought

Even if the end seems nowhere in sight
To the place at the top of the stairs
I know I can’t jump across in a single step
Finally

When the performance is over and I open my eyes
With the people who cheered for me
So I can smile and hug them, saying "Thank you"—
Draw an apple
