There exists no official translation for the lyrics to this song. The translation below was made by fans.
I was crying, a candied apple in one hand…
into the darkness of dead time.
"Mama, where are you Mama?" imprint your details in my eyes,
and hold you.
Gion Hill in August when the bugs chirp noisilly
and the store that sells folding paper fans.
The smiling Month of May this child wished for never comes.
I let the paper balloon fly high into the sky,
At that point the tears well up,
the red candy melts away with my memories until there's nothing.
I awake around 4 in the morning, to her tiny cries echoing,
I put her to bed with a reading of her favorite picture book.
in the darkness… goodbye.
I let the paper balloon fly high into the sky,
At that point the tears well up,
the red candy melts away with my memories until there's nothing.
how many more years will it be before these tears end?
the sun sank to the dead bottom and there lies the truth and…
At one o'clock in the afternoon on a windless day,
there now she lies silently, still underneath the tatami.
ringo ame katate ni naiteita tsuki yomi sō no yami e

You were crying with an apple candy in one hand…,walking into the twilight
「Where's Mommy?」 your eyes shape of the moon burn inside my head and I hold you.
It's August, when the insects start to cry at the sensu shop on the Gion Hill.
The happy month of May that this child is looking forward to will not come.
Paper balloons fly high in the sky.
There the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy ball as it melts together until it's gone.
I wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning by the sound of a small cry.
I put the child to sleep by reading the child's favorite book. Good Bye.
Paper baloons fly high in the sky.
There the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy ball as it melts together until it's gone.
How many more years will it take for the tears to be all gone?
The sun sets, underneath the burial is the truth and.....
13 o'clock in the afternoon, not a single sound of the wind can be heard.
Her body, still to this day, lie very quiet, underneath the tatami

The child with an apple candy in one hand was crying… into the darkness of the burial under the moon
「Where's Mommy?」
As I hold you in my arms, I burn your appearance into memory
In August you can hear the insects cry at the Sensu shop on Gion Hill
The happy month of May that the child wishes for will not come
Paper balloons fly into the sky
There, the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy as it melts together until it's gone
About 4 o'clock in the morning, the sound of a small cry wakes me up
I read the child's favorite bedtime story to put the child to sleep
And in the darkness
Good Bye
Paper balloons fly high into the sky
There, the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy as it melts together until it's gone
How many more years will it take for the tears to dry?
Underneath the rotten burial lies the truth and…
1 o'clock in the afternoon, without a single breath of wind
Her body, still to this very day, lies quietly underneath the tatami
