่็ ้ขจ literally means โthe wind of cowardice,โ but it is a vivid Japanese idiom for suddenly losing courage or being overcome by fear. In the song, ่็ ้ขจใซๅนใใใฆ means โbeing buffeted by fear,โ creating a memorable image of trying to love a turbulent world despite one's doubts.
"Hanabi" opens with a tired question: how much is this world I'm living in actually worth? The narrator admits everything feels meaningless, then shrugs it off with a very human excuse, ใกใใฃใจ็ฒใใฆใใฎใใชใ (maybe I'm just a bit tired). That casual tsukareten is spoken Japanese, the clipped form of tsukarete iru, and it makes the whole song feel like someone thinking out loud late at night rather than giving a speech.
The title means fireworks (่ฑ็ซ, literally "fire flowers"), and the central image is the light of a firework, something you can never catch. He knows that, and still the chorus keeps repeating ใใไธๅ ใใไธๅ (one more time, one more time) until he says ๅใฏใใฎๆใไผธใฐใใใ (I want to reach out this hand). Later the same chant turns into wanting to see "you" again, over and over, even though he knew from the start that goodbye would come for him. My favourite bit is the honesty in the middle: he hates how clumsy he is with words, but hates the version of himself that acts smoothly and cleverly even more. The phrase ่็ ้ขจใซๅนใใใฆ (blown by the wind of cowardice) is a fun idiom to learn: in Japanese you get "caught by a cowardly wind" when you lose your nerve. The song never fixes anything. It just asks how much he can love a world full of rough waves, and then grabs for that firework light one more time.
