膝の音

私のバンドには、10年ぐらいの年上のメンバーがいます。リハーサルの時に、そのメンバーはずっと座ったままでギターを弾きます。膝に何かがかかってるみたいで、長く立ててギターを弾くのが少し辛そうです。でもライブの時は立って弾きます。そのメンバーは膝を曲がると、バキバキの音が出ます。少し怖いです。だからそのメンバーはいつも後輩の私たちに「体を大事にしろ」を言います。私の体に何かが痛くなると、そのご注意の言葉を思い出します。10年の後、私の膝もああいう音がするのかな。そうならないように頑張るしかないですね。

In my band, we have one member who's around 10 years older than us. Whenever we rehearse, that member always plays his guitar while sitting down. There seems to be something wrong with his knees, so it's hard for him to stand up and play guitar for a long time. But when we perform live, he stands up to play. Whenever that member bends his knee, you can hear a cracking sound. It's a little scary. That's why that member always tells us to take care of our bodies. Whenever I feel pain in my body, I remember his words of warning. In 10 years, I wonder if my knees will also make that sort of sound. I have to work hard to stop that from happening.
