Dir en grey Translation

A translation of Lareine’s “Dir en grey” from their album “Reine de fleur II”. I haven’t been able to find an explanation for the title of this song (or for the band who is said to have taken their name from this song (don’t quote me on that no one knows for sure)), though the “grey” part is evident in the lyrics.

花を千切る僕を見た君は怯える
Hana wo chigiru boku wo mita kimi ha obieru
Looking at me who tore the flowers into pieces, you are afraid.

思い出の中で自然に絡まる恐怖
詰め込んで蓋を閉じて二人で踊るのずっと。。。
Omoide no naka de shizen ni karamaru kyoufu
Tsumekonda futa wo tojite futari de odoru no zutto...
The fear naturally twined into the memories,
And jamming the lid shut, we'll dance forever.

想いはいつも儚くて虹と重なる
Omoi ha itsumo hakanakute niji to kasanaru
Memories always overlap with the transient rainbows.
思い出の中で自然に絡まる恐怖
甘えた声で誘う。。。悪戯な
Omoide no naka de shizen ni karamaru kyoufu
Amaeta koe de sasou... itazura na
The fear naturally twined into the memories
Invites me with a sweet voice... how mischievous.

泣いてた悲劇を"あなた"を確かめた僕は
いつかの言葉は無にしよう
幼すぎた約束
Naiteta higeki wo "anata" wo tashikameta boku ha
Itsuka no kotoba ha mu ni shiyou
Osanasugita yakusoku
Surely the tragedy that was cried, and you will
Leave me with no words.
What a childish promise.

自然に絡まる恐怖
甘えた声で誘う。。。悪戯な"あなた"
Omoide no naka de jizen ni karamaru kyoufu
Amaeta koe de sasou... Itazura na "anata"
Naturally twined into the memories,
Invites me with a sweet voice... you’re so mischievous!

泣いてた悲劇を"あなた"を確かめた僕は
いつかの言葉は無にしよう
幼すぎた約束
Naiteta higeki wo "anata" wo tashikameta boku ha
Itsuka no kotoba ha mu ni shiyou
Osanasugita yakusoku
Surely the tragedy that was cried, and you will
Leave me with no words.
What a childish promise.

もう灰色の"わたし"には何も見えなくて
優しく包み込む
腕は僕じゃない
僕じゃない
Mou haiiro no "watashi" ni ha nani mo mienakute
Yasashiku tsutsumikomu
Ude ha boku ja nai
Boku ja nai
You can no longer see anything in the ashen-grey me.
Gently, you wrap me up.
I'm not the one in your arms.
It isn't me...

曇った朝の静かな溜息...
無言の空に吹きかけ
Kumotta asa no shizuka na tameiki...
Mugon no sora ni fukikake
A sigh in the quiet, cloudy morning...
I let it out towards the silent sky.

 

人は寂しささえ押さえてただ言葉だけ
もう笑えないよこんなに苦しめたのに
Hito ha sabishisa sae osaete tada kotoba dake
Mou waraenai yo konna ni kurushimeta no ni
People hold back even their sadness with words alone.
I can't laugh anymore, because I'm suffering like this.

 

どしゃぶりの雨の中ずっと待ってる
ふと見上げて貴女が来たなら
Doshaburi no ame no naka zutto matteru
Fu to miagete anata ga kita nara
I'll always be waiting in the pouring rain
To suddenly look up and see you've come.

 

必ず来ると思った貴女が来ないなら
Kanarazu kuru to omotta anata ga konai nara
I thought that you'd definitely come, but you didn't.

 

もう分かったよこのまま来ないならば
今までの言葉を全て忘れてあげるよ
Mou wakatta yo kono mama konai naraba
Ima made no kotoba wo subete wasureteageru yo
I understand it now, that you won't come like this.
Forget everything I've said up until now.

 

"もう逢えない" だなんて... まさか本気だったの?
いつもの強がりじゃなくて確かに聞こえた
まだ降り続く雨はまるでヒロインのように描かれ
絵を溶かしていく無意味な感情
"Mou aenai" da nante... masaka honki datta no?
Itsumo no tsuyogari ja nakute tashika ni kikoeta
Mada furitsuzuku ame ha marude heroine no you ni egakare
E wo tokashiteiku muimi na kanjou
"I can't see you anymore"... is it possible that you were serious?
I definitely heard you weren't as strong as usual.
The rain that continues to fall seems to paint out a heroine.
That picture will melt away in meaningless emotion.

 

Ah... 運命なんて僕は信じたくない
Ah... unmei nante boku ha shinjitaku nai
Ah... I don't want to believe in anything like destiny.

 

どしゃぶりの雨の中ずっと待ってる
太陽を探して
Doshaburi no ame no naka zutto matteru
Taiyou wo sagashite
I'm always waiting in the pouring rain,
Searching for the sun.

 

貴女との思い出が今にもぼれて
下を見ても水溜りに記憶の波紋が
Anata to no omoide ga ima ni mo borete
Shita wo mite mo mizutamari ni kioku no hamon ga
My memories with you are even now too highly priced.
If I look down, ripples of memory cross the water's surface.

 

全てに縛られたままで貴女も夢もくずれてく
こんなに苦しいのはナゼ? 貴女に逢いたい
Subete ni shibarareta mama de anata mo yume mo kuzureteku
Konna ni kurushii no ha naze? Anata ni aitai
Tied by everything like this, even you and my dreams will crumble.
Why do I suffer like this? I want to see you.

 

貴女の声が聞きたくて
貴女の指に触れたくて
貴女の声が聞きたかった
貴女に逢いたい
Anata no koe ga kikitakute
Anata no yubi ni furetakute
Anata no koe ga kikitakatta
Anata ni aitai
I want to hear your voice
I want to touch your fingers.
I wanted to hear your voice.
I want to see you.

 

こんなに想いは募るのに
"もう逢えない" と... "もう逢えない"と...
Konna ni omoi ha tsunoru no ni
"Mou aenai" to... "Mou aenai" to...
Even though like this, my feelings are getting stronger,
You say "I can't see you anymore"... "I can't see you anymore"...

 

運命なんて...
Unmei nante...
Something like destiny is...

床の上にばらまかれた絵を眺める
あの頃に少しも変わらない君が微笑む
流れてくる歌声に溺れながら
今も少しも変われない僕がたたずむ
Yuka no ue ni baramakareta e wo nagameru
Ano koro ni sukoshi mo kawaranai kimi ga hohoemu
Nagaretekuru utagoe ni oborenagara
Ima mo sukoshi mo kawaranai boku ga tadazumu
Gazing at the pictures strewn on the ground,
You, who haven't changed a single bit since that time, are smiling.
While drowning in your flowing, singing voice,
Now, I, who haven't changed a bit either, stand still for awhile.

 

空が青くなく 夜が黒くなく 赤の鼓動が止めば
君を忘れることが出来るのに
Sora ga aokunaku Yoru ga kurokunaku Aka no kodou ga yameba
Kimi wo wasureru koto ga dekiru no ni
The sky is not blue. The night is not black. If the red palpitations will stop,
I could maybe forget you.

 

seraph serenade
何処へ往くの? 連れて行って 独りになれない
迎えに来た君の手をとる
seraph serenade
Doko he yuku no? Tsureteitte Hitori ni narenai
Mukae ni kita kimi no te wo toru
seraph serenade
Where are you going? Take me with you so that I won't be alone.
You turn to me, and I take your hand.

 

この瞬間で幕を閉じる運命を 永遠に光る輝きの中 感謝する
Kono shunkan de maku wo tojiru unmei wo Eien ni hikaru kagayaki no naka Kansha suru
In this moment, the fate closes the curtains. In the brilliance shining in eternity, I'm grateful.

 

胸に残る体温 天使と舞う姿
Mune ni nokoru taion Tenshi to mau sugata
The body heat left in my chest dances with an angel.

 

銀色の翼が今 永い悪魔を越えて 君を待つ僕のもとへ
思い通りにして さぁ殺しておくれ 僕を待つ君の腕で
再会の今を抱き締めるこの僕を さぁ殺しておくれ…
Giniro no hane¹ ga ima Nagai akuma wo koete Kimi wo matsu boku no moto he
Omoidoori ni shite Saa koroshiteokure Boku wo matsu kimi no ude de
Saikai no ima wo dakishimeru kono boku wo Saa koroshiteokure...
Now, with silver-coloured wings, you pass the eternal demons and come to me
who waits for you.
If it pleases you, now, kill me with your waiting arms.
Now, embracing me in our reunion, please, kill me...

Notes
1. “Tsubasa” (“wings”) is written, but Tetsu sings “hane” (“wings”).

二人戸惑い 彷徨いながら 歩き続けてる
鐘の音と 静寂だけが 追いかけて来る
Futari tomadoi Samayoinagara Arukitsuzuketeru
Kane no oto to Seijaku dake ga Oikaketekuru
The two of us are continuing to walk, confused, wandering,
Pursuing the bell-sounds and the silence.

 

突然一筋の奇跡色の閃光 包まれる様に吸い込まれていく
そこは無色の理由もない空間
今だけの為にある 君だけ在れば全て無限
Totsuzen hitosuji no kisekiiro no senkou Tsutsumareru you ni suikomareteiku
Soko ha mushoku no wake¹ mo nai kuukan
Ima dake no tame ni aru Kimi dake areba subete mugen
I drink up the sudden flash of miracle-coloured light that seems to envelop me.
In that place is an empty space with no colour or reason.
Just for now, if you alone are here, everything is infinite.

 

same guilt same crime
makin' me dance around for killing time
ときめきに操られ
same guilt same crime
makin' me dance around for killing time
Tokimeki ni ayatsurare
same guilt same crime
makin' me dance around for killing time
Controlled by my pulse.

 

centenly
瞳閉じて指先と舌で 盲目の愛
いつかきっと 愛しあう言葉 途切れ途切れ
centenly
Me tojite yubisaki to shita de Moumoku no ai
Itsuka kitto Aishiau kotoba togiretogire
centenly
Close your eyes. Blind love is on your fingertips and tongue.
Someday, surely, the words of mutual love will break.

 

sometime somewhere
once again kiss around for our ties
ときめきに身を任せ
sometime sometime
once again kiss around for our ties
Tokimeki ni mi wo makase
sometime somewhere
once again kiss around for our ties
Give your body to the palpitations.

狂っちゃいない 正常まともさ そろそろ
死んだフリは やめてよ
狂ってるのは お前達の方さ
ささやかな愛を あげただけ
Kurucchainai Seijou matomo sa Sorosoro
Shinda furi ha yamete yo
Kurutteru no ha Omaera no you sa
Sasayaka na ai wo Ageta dake
I'm not mad. I'm just plain normal. It's time.
Stop pretending to be dead.
You're the ones that are mad!
Just give me a meagre love!

 

声を聞かせて 微笑みかけて
優しく そう いつもの様に
震える頬を そっと なでておくれ
優しく そう いつもの様に
Koe wo kikasete Hohoemi kakete
Yasashiku Sou Itsumo no you ni
Furueru hoho wo Sotto Nadete okure
Yasashiku Sou Itsumo no you ni
Let me hear your voice. Smile at me.
You're just as gentle as ever...
Please gently stroke my trembling cheeks.
You're just as gentle as ever...

 

冷たい口から溢れ出す生温い想い舐めまわせば
蜃気楼の様にはかない恋はもう永遠より永く遠く
Tsumetai kuchi kara afuredasu namanurui omoi namemawaseba
Shinkirou no you ni hakanai koi ha mou eien yori nagaku tooku
I lick up the lukewarm emotions that spill from your cold mouth.
Like a mirage, this transient love is further away than eternity now.

 

Holy moment & Silent moment
Shine with Brilliant colors
and I stay up to Brilliant Vacant

 

Sweet corpse
僕の中のこの愛をおもりにして
暗い底まで沈んでいこう
これでもう彼女は離れない
僕はもう彼女を離さない
Sweet corpse
Boku no naka no kono ai wo omori ni shite
Kurai soko made shizundeikou
Kore de mou kanojo ha hanarenai
Boku ha mou kanajo wo hanasanai
Sweet corpse
This love sinks within me,
Sinking down into the dark depths.
With this, I won't part from her again.
I won't let her go now.

 

『あなたの吐息を溜息も この手で止めたから』
"Anata no toki wo tameiki mo Kono te de tometa kara"
"Because I stopped your breath and your sighs with my own hand."
