Behind the mask
その仮面の中君が泣いてるなら
夢の世界導いて抱きしめてあげる
Behind the mask
Sono kamen no naka kimi ga naiteru nara
Yume no sekai michibiite dakishimete ageru

Behind the mask
If you are crying behind that mask, then 
I’ll lead you to the world of dreams and hold you tightly.

同じときを生きる悲しい prima donna
僕を見て君は独りじゃない
今宵踊ろうか?
Onaji toki wo ikiru kanashii prima donna
Boku wo mite kimi ha hitori ja nai
Koyou odorou ka?

O sad prima donna living as my contemporary,
Look at me. You’re no longer alone.
Shall we dance tonight?

泣きたい時に君は瞳に蓋をして
暗闇になか愛を探してさまよっている
Nakitai toki ni kimi ha hitomi ni futa wo shite
Kurayami ni naka ai wo sagashite samayotteiru

Each time you want to cry, you close your eyes
And wander in darkness, searching for love.

空を見上げ眩しい光に包まれた薔薇のように
君には君の世界がある
Sora wo miage mabushii hikari ni tsutsumareta bara no you ni
Kimi ni ha kimi no sekai ga aru

For you, there is a world
Like a rose engulfed in dazzling light that looks up to the sky.

Behind the mask
その仮面の中君が悲しいなら
夢の世界導いて抱きしめて痛い
Behind the mask
Sono kamen no naka kimi ga kanashii nara
Yume no sekai michibiite daksihimete itai

Behind the mask. 
If you’re sad behind that mask,
I’ll guide you to the world of dreams and embrace you painfully.

除き込んだ世界にうつしだされるのは人のよはさと
心の醜さだけ愚かさだけ浮き彫りになってゆく
Nozokikonda sekai ni utsushidasareru no ha hito no yowasa to
Kokoro no minikusa dake orokasa dake ukibori ni natte yuku

Only the ugliness of humans’ hearts and their foolishness stands out
With the weakness that they reflected onto the eradicated world.

いつもと変わらないよるをながめているだけで
なぜ涙は流れ出すの消えてしまいたくなる
Itsumo to kawaranai yoru wo nagameteiru dake de
Naze namida ha nagaredasu no kieteshimaitaku naru

You’re just gazing at the night that never changes.
“Why am I crying? I want to disappear.”

Behind the mask
誰にも言えない心を寄せ合えば音も立てず砕け散る仮面
涙… behind the mask
Behind the mask
Dare ni mo ienai kokoro wo yoseaeba oto mo tatezu kudakechiru kamen
Namida… behind the mask

Behind the mask
Pressing your mask against the heart that couldn’t be spoken of to anyone,
it shatters silently.
Tears… behind the mask

Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
流れるときの中で    夢の世界求めだ指先が迷い込む現実
Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
悲しい夜に解けて     いつも君の心に寄り添って
踊る… behind the mask
踊る… behind the mask
Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
Nagareru toki no naka de   Yume no sekai motome da yubisaki ga mayoikomu genjitsu
Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
Kanashii yoru ni tokete   Itsumo kimi no kokoro ni yorisotte
Odoru… behind the mask
Odoru… behind the mask

Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
In the passing time is the reality in which the fingertips that sought for a dream world
lost their way.
Everyone knows, they are crying behind the mask
As you come undone in the sorrowful night, I’ll always be there in your heart.
Dancing… behind the mask
Dancing… behind the mask

VORTEX Translation

A translation of the GazettE’s “VORTEX” from their single of the same name. I haven’t read the interviews about it yet, but it seems it is yet another successor to songs like “LEECH” and “VERMIN”, hurling anger and disgust at corporate suits. Ruki uses very strong language in these lyrics.

Please do not steal this translation or use it without my permission. All rights belong to the GazettE and their label, PS Company/Sony Music Japan.

VORTEX

 

 

 

 


Nido to kesenai kurai ni kizu wo fukameteiku Malice
Ikisugita atama wo eguritobikau Bug ni Noise wo
The malice deepens this scar that will never disappear again.
The noise forces a bug into the head that breathes too much.

 

Tsukaisute no ai to shitte urareta karakuri
"Tanjunmeikai Buzama na asu da" tte
Rikai shiteru jiten de owatteru
I know the disposable love and the mechanisms you sell.
You say "Plain and simple, tomorrow is unpresentable."
Right then, my understanding of you was done.

 

Yugamimawaru Vortex of beats
Hakike no naka de odoru
Right before my eyes
The world that decayed
Right before my eyes
You murder somebody
I'm strained and twisted in a vortex of beats,
Dancing in nausea.
Right before my eyes
The world that decayed
Right before my eyes
You murder somebody

 

Too tragic to stay with you

 

Guruguru to mawaru Loop no naka de
Kikaijikake no sora ni kieteyuku
[COUNTLESS BUG]
Zaraitsuita shita de yoku wo nazotte
Stolid na Dummy ni yume wo misereba
Ku darou ga etsu ni kawaru sa
I don't wanna become the fuckin' garbage like you
In the loop that twists and turns,
I disappear into a mechanised sky.
[COUNTLESS BUG]
Tracing over your greed with your roughened tongue,
You show off your dream to a stolid dummy.
It's disappointing, but you change that out for self-satisfaction.
I don't wanna become the fuckin' garbage like you

 

Vortex of industry

 

Shut the fuck up
Jack off

 

The only thing you really know about me is...
You can't take my soul away from me
The only thing you really know about me is...
I can't answer your silly wish

 

Kurai kurai yami ni ochiteyuku
[COUNTLESS BUG]
Kegarenaki koe mo doro ni mamire
Ima ja sono uso ni mi wo nageru
[COUNTLESS BUG]
Scrap ni nareba kachi ha kieru
Sungeki no namida ha sono mune ni todokanai
I fall into black, black darkness
[COUNTLESS BUG]
And even my pure voice is smeared with mud.
So now, I throw my body away into that lie.
[COUNTLESS BUG]
When it turns to scrap, the value will disappear,
And the tears of such a short play will never reach your heart.

 

I don't wanna become the fuckin' garbage like you

crystal scherzo Announcement #16.1

 Hello all,

Thank you for the support on my announcement.

It appears that a music association is claiming rights to the actual kanji lyrics used in a good amount of my posts and says that reproducing these lyrics is unlawful.

I'm debating what to do from here on out. I'll keep you guys updated.



Update 23/6/7:

Hi all!

I have decided to try removing the kanji lyrics from all claimed posts to see if that fixes the problem. When I start posting translations again (hopefully soon!), I've decided to tentatively just try posting one song translation at a time, paying special attention to the artists that were claimed, and monitor what happens. 

If things get immediately claimed, then I'll have to look at either changing hosts to see if that solves the problem (since I would no longer be on Google's platform, which might solve the problem of getting noticed "commercially"), or just eliminating posting kanji lyrics altogether.

We'll take things one step at a time.

In the meantime I'm working on some things behind the scenes and getting organised to start translating again. I know I'm not steady and reliable, but I still appreciate every single one of you that has stuck with me or that comes to visit. You all make my day.


♡ Hana

crystal scherzo announcement #16

 Hi guys.


I know that I've been pretty spotty on updating this blog and doing translations over the last ten or so years. The motivation comes and goes along with whatever's going on in life. I was just prepping to get started again when I got hit with nearly 20 copyright notices just a couple weeks ago.

No real explanation as for why, and no real pattern to them either.

As of right now I'm trying to decide what to do. I may be migrating the blog to a different host, or if I can figure out what I need to do to avoid copyright here on blogger I may have to change the way I post. I'll post an update again when I make a decision.

Regardless, I'm hoping I'll get things up and going again really soon.


Thanks to everyone who has stuck with me and supported me all these years. I truly appreciate each and every person that comes by to see what I work on.


Much love ♡
Hana

~.oOOo.~ 








Anata ga {soba he} to utaeba
Tooi sora mo koerareru

When you sing “Come to my side”,
I can cross even through the faraway sky.




Mamorareteiru   Mamorareru hodo
Tarinai chikara ga kuyashii
Kono mi wo sasagete   Kono te wo karamete inotta
EtErnAl lIfE…
Saisho de saigo da kara wagamama wo sukoshi iwasete…
{*Sono hitomi ga utsusu no ha   Dare no hitomi to*}
 
This strength to protect is insufficient
And I end up being protected. It’s so frustrating.
Offering up my body, I prayed with my hands clasped together.
EtErnAl lIfE…
Because the end is the beginning, let me speak a little selfishly…
{*Whose eyes are reflected in yours?*}



Yasashisa no soba ni yorisotte watashi ha
Sekai wo shitta
Nagashita namida mo obie mo tsutsumikomi nagara
Yasashisa ha tsune ni   Hitori ja umarenai
Subete no mono ni ha imi ga aru to
Oshiete kureta no mo anata datta kara

I, who have leaned on kindness,
Understood the world.
While enveloped in cried tears and fears,
Kindness is never born alone.
The one that taught me that all things have meaning
Was you.



Itsuka ha   Itsuka ha   Kono kimochi mo kieru no?
Itsu no hi ni ka   Kokoro ha   Kawaridashite shimau no?

Someday, someday, will this feeling disappear too?
One of these days, will my heart change?



Mamotteitai   Mamori tsuzukeru
Hisoka ni umareta kanjou
Kono mi wo furuwase   Kono te wo sukunde chikatta
EtErnAl lIfE…
Saisho kara kawaranai omoi ha zutto mune no naka…
{*Sono hitomi ga utsusu no ha   Dare no hitomi to*}

I want to protect the feeling that was born in secret.
I’ll keep protecting it!
Rousing my body and clasping my hands, I pledged it.
EtErnAl lIfE…
The feelings that have never changed since the beginning are in my heart…
{*Whose eyes are reflected in yours?*}



Yasashisa no soba wo itoshinde watashi ha
Tsuyoku naru kara
Hitori no jikan mo kokoro ha hitorikiri ja nai
Yasashisa ha tsune ni   Dareka no tame ni aru
Subete wo ushinau toki ga kite mo
Dare mo ubaenai yo   Yasashisa no soba wo

Because I, who cherished being near kindness,
Am becoming strong,
Even in the times where I’m alone, my heart is not lonely.
Kindness is always for someone else’s sake.
Even if the time comes where I lose everything,
I won’t be taken away from kindness by anyone.



{*Boku ha owaranai sekai de hitomi wo tojiru*}
{*Kimi ha sono soba de zutto mitsumete…*}

{*I close my eyes in this neverending world.*}
{*I’m always gazing at you beside me…*}



Yasashisa no soba ni yorisotte watashi ha
Sekai wo shitta
Nagashita namida mo obie mo tsutsumikomi nagara
Yasashisa ha tsune ni   Hitori ja umarenai
Subete no mono ni ha imi ga aru to
Oshiete kureta yo ne

I, who have leaned on kindness,
Understood the world.
While enveloped in cried tears and fears,
Kindness is never born alone.
The one that taught me that all things have meaning
Was you.



Yasashisa no soba wo itoshinde watashi ha
Tsuyoku naru kara
Hitori no jikan mo kokoro ha hitorikiri ja nai
Yasashisa ha tsune ni   Anata no tame ni aru
Subete wo ushinau toki ga kite mo
Daremo ubaenai kara   Hitomi no chikara wo

Because I, who cherished being near kindness,
Am becoming strong,
Even in the times where I’m alone, my heart is not lonely.
Kindness is always for someone else’s sake.
Even if the time comes where I lose everything,
No one will steal away the strength of these eyes.

Creation






永遠の時の中で選ばれた
与え賜う    この光の命を
Tokoshie1 no toki no naka de erabareta
Ataetamou   Kono hikari no inochi wo

In this eternal time, I chose
To receive the light of this life.



抱いたままに降りる階段で
未知なる印された未来へ向かえば
Daita mama ni oriru kaidan de
Michinaru shirusareta mirai he mukaeba

As I embraced it, I descended the stairs
To face a future marked “unknown”.



幾万の聴こえる産声が…
遥か遠くへと響く予兆を
Ikuman no kikoeru ubugoe ga…
Haruka tooku he to hibiku yochou wo

I can hear so many birth cries…
The omen echoes far away in the distance.



抱いたままに降りる階段で
未知なる印された未来へと
Daita mama ni oriru kaidan de
Michinaru shirusareta mirai he to

As I embraced it, I descended the stairs
To face a future marked “unknown”.



Don't you cry    夜が明けていく
Don't you cry    照らされる
Don't you cry    瞼を開けて
Don't you cry    吸い込んで
Don’t you cry   Yo ga aketeiku
Don’t you cry   Terasareru
Don’t you cry   Mabuta wo akete
Don’t you cry   Suikonde

Don’t you cry   The night will grow lighter
Don’t you cry   And you’ll be illuminated.
Don’t you cry   Open your eyes
Don’t you cry   And breathe.



物語の序章が息吹いて
穹蒼と地が創造られた
Monogatari no joshou ga ibuite
Oozora2 to chi ga tsukurareta3

With a breath, the legend's prologue
Created the wide sky and the earth.



Don't look back    前だけを見て
Don't look back    踏み出して
Don't look back    太陽に手が
Don't look back    届くように
Don’t look back   Mae dake wo mite
Don’t look back   Fumidashite
Don’t look back   Taiyou ni te ga
Don’t look back   Todoku you ni

Don’t look back   Just look forward
Don’t look back   And go forth
Don’t look back   So that your hands
Don’t look back   Will reach the sun.



死線越えては    昇る階段
行き交うものは    幾億の夜
摘まれた蕾も    いつかは散りゆく
幾度、深く    愛されて
Shisen koete ha   Noboru kaidan
Ikikau mono ha   Ikuoku no yoru
Tsumareta hana4 mo   Itsuka ha chiriyuku
Ikutabi, fukaku   Ai sarete

The ascending stairs cross the line between life and death.
That which comes and goes are the innumerable nights.
Someday, even the flower you picked will scatter to pieces.   
You'll be deeply loved over and over again. 













Notes
1. "Eien" ("eternity") is written, while Rami sings "tokoshie", which means the same thing
2. The kanji compound here is made of "kyou" ("sky") and "ao" ("blue"). Together they would probably be pronounced "kyousou", but Rami sings "oozora" ("vast sky, heavens") instead.
3. The compound written is "souzou" ("creation"), while Rami sings it as "tsukurareta" ("made, created"). The second kanji in the compound can be ready as "tsukuru", so it goes with the "tsukurareta".
4. "Tsubomi" ("flower bud") is written, but Rami sings "hana" ("flower").

もう見えない
Watashi ga watashi de aru tame ni tsukuridasu1 hikari
Samayotta kako no michi nante

With the light I created so I could be myself,
I can no longer see
The path of the past I wandered in.



私が私であるために切り拓いた未来
この先で彷徨ったとしても
独りじゃない
Watashi ga watashi de aru tame ni kirihiraita mirai
Kono saki de samayotta to shite mo

I cut through the future so I could be myself.
Even if I get lost beyond this point,
I’m not alone.

Jama wo shita no ha kokoro no yowasa de
Tsuyosa ni kaete kakenukete ikitai

The weakness of my heart gets in my way.
I want to change it to strength and run on through.

Ah, these feelings that I can’t hold back are overflowing.
Ah, I start to run, and my ideals spread before me.

Believing in the power that I was born with,
There is nothing that is impossible.

Ah, take away the haze that rends my heart
Ah, and hide it within the wilderness taken over by water.

The innumerable memories are
Overflowing in that smiling face…
The two of us will overcome the numerous chains,
Untangling them and shaking them off.

If my heart awakens,
Even if it’s in the wounded night,
Even if it wounds the night, 
It will whisper softly:
“Let’s live on, cuddling even closer than we are now.”

The words I received from you
Lead me with a smile.
No matter what difficult things may come,
We’ll overcome it together.

「変わらずに寄り添い、生きていこう」
Nugui kirenai fuan no hibi mo
Yagate kieyuku to, shinjiteiru
Ikunen no saki mo zutto
“Kawarazu ni yorisoi, ikiteikou”

I believe that even the days where we couldn’t dispel our worries
Will finally disappear.
Forever, no matter how many years are before us,

Notes
1. This compound is usually read as "takaba", but Ryouga pronounces the second kanji as "eki" instead.
2. "Ai" ("love") is written, but Ryouga pronounces in English as "rabu".
3. As far as I can tell, there is no way to read this kanji as "shi" or "shitsu", however that is how Ryouga pronounces it. If either of those are a way to read the kanji, please let me know as I cannot find it!
4. "Jiga" ("ego") is written, but Ryouga sings "yo" (which I'm interpreting to mean "world").

The 16:9 dummy
Reflected in my eyes

I became familiar with the sense of discomfort.
The Normal crown themselves with their world view.
That which is correct will shoot off.

Swarming in sweet honey.

I’m alone in the mire I can’t conceal again today,
But it’s not hard to see that that’s characteristic of me.
Public opinion doesn’t matter to me.













Notes:
1. "Kutouten" is a subset of punctuation marks (such as "senten" for ellipses and "touten" for comma). A colon is just "koron", though it is a type of kutouten mark. I could have left this out of the transliteration, but I thought it was interesting that Ruki verbally marks the punctuation with "ten" (which can just mean "dot" or "mark") as this isn't usually done.

NINTH ODD SMELL Translation

NINTH






This soul can never die



第一「混沌」は無知の刃
異端は反逆の中指立て
Daiichi “konton” ha muchi no yaiba
Itan ha hangyaku no nakayubi tate

The first “Disorder” is the blade of ignorance.
Heresy raises a treacherous middle finger.



共鳴と駆け上がり
向かう九段の欲
第二の「無」
闇を裂いた未来
Kyoumei to kakeagari
Mukau kyuudan no yoku
Daini no “mu”
Yami wo saita mirai

Rushing up with the resonance,
We’ll face the ninth desire.
The second “Null”
Is a future tearing up the darkness.



積み重なり蠢くRubbish
やがて来る酷の前触れ
Tsumikasanari ugomeku Rubbish
Yagate kuru koku no maebure

The Rubbish wriggles and accumulates.
The severe harbinger has finally arrived.



紅蓮纏う絶望 仄暗い底を這い
疑心暗鬼の塔 見下ろす世界
Guren matou zetsubou   Honogurai soko wo oi
Gishin anki no tou   Miorosu sekai

Clad in crimson lotuses, despair crawls in the gloomy depths.
The tower of paranoia stares down at the world.



毒を喉に絡ませ渦巻いた日々
千切れていく心が痛い
衰退に浮き立つ感情は
歪んだ異形の中で
13階に辿りつく
そう 黒い黒い黒い闇を抱いて
Doku wo nodo ni karamase uzumaita hibi
Chigireteiku kokoro ga itai
Suitai ni ukitatsu kanjou ha
Yuganda igyou no naka de
Juusankai ni tadoritsuku
Sou Kuroi kuroi kuroi yami wo daite

The poison tangles in my throat and the days jumble together.
My heart that’s torn to pieces is aching.
The emotions exhilarated by decay
Struggle their way towards the 13th stair
In the warped heteromorphy.
Yes, embrace the black, black, black darkness.



We fucking never die 
This soul can never die 
We fucking never die 
Can't never die



両手広げ 指一つ引いて
向かう終わりに
生を吊るし弾け飛ぶ
Ryoute hiroge   Yubi hitotsu hiite
Mukau owari ni
Sei wo tsurushi hajiketobu

Spreading both my hands, I raise one finger
And facing the end,
I hang up my life and burst open.



現在 此処に混ざり合い
形成された姿
第九「生きていた証明」
Genzai   Koku ni mazariai
Keisei sareta sugata
Daikyuu “Ikiteita shoumei”

Everything is mixing together here in the present time
Its form moulded,
The ninth is “Proof that we lived.”



解けて散るまで
錆びついた心を溶かし
ただ壊れたように理想描く
犇めく声と有限の中で
止まぬ不祥さえ
そう 喰らえ喰らえ喰らえ喰らえ
Hodokete chiru made
Sabitsuita kokoro wo tokashi
Tada kowareta you ni risou egaku
Hishimeku koe to yuugen no naka de
Yamanu fushou sae
Sou   Kurae kurae kurae kurae

Until we come undone and die,
We’ll melt the rusted hearts.
I picture ideals that seem like they’re about to break.
Even in the midst of the limits of clamouring voices,
The disgrace won’t stop.
Yes, take it, take it, take it, take it!



We fucking never die 
This soul can never die 
We fucking never die 
Can't ever LIE 
We fucking never die 
This soul can never die 
We fucking never die 
I won't ever lie



偶像崇拝Inside me
Guuzou suihai Inside me

Tesaguri sagashiteta   Jibun no ibasho wo

There are lots of 'me's that have lived out their parts.
I’ve been fumbling and searching for someplace where I can be myself.

このままじゃ もう誰かわからなくなる
仮面を外しても また仮面が現れる
Kono mama ja   Mou dareka wakaranaku naru
Kamen wo hazushite mo   Mata kamen ga arawareru

No one knows me like this anymore.
Even if I take off the mask, the mask will materialise again.



どれだけ才能ある役者なんだ 自分役から抜け出せない
Dore dake sainou aru yakusha nanda   Jibunyaku kara nukedasenai
No matter how they try, a talented actor cannot break free of their own role.



従うべき言葉は今 お前の中にある 持ち続けた居場所をなくすな

Shitagaubeki kotoba ha ima   Omae no naka ni aru   Mochitsuzuketa ibasho wo nakusu na
Sainamarete mitsukeru mono   Mitsukecha ikenai mono   Manabu dake ga seikai ja nai

The words I'm meant to obey are within you now. Don’t lose sight of the place
you held onto for so long.
Just studying the things that I found while tortured, the things that you mustn’t
get used to, isn’t the right answer.

get used to, isn’t the right answer.



誰かの為に生きられる勇気を 自分の為に生きられる勇気を
僕はもう疑わない 少年の顔を
Dareka no tame ni ikirareru yuuki wo   Jibun no tame ni ikirareru yuuki wo
Boku ha mou utagawanai   Shounen no kao wo

I won't doubt a youthful face again, or the courage to be able to live for someone else,
The courage to be able to live for myself.

交わる吐露の中で塞がれていくのか
Wasurenagara ikiru soushun ni kaeru kizu ha
Majiwaru toro no naka de fusagareteiku no ka

Living while forgetting, will the scars that return to the spring of emotion
Be closed off in the mingling expressions?

まるで番いのように重ね合って
Mou tadashisa mo muimi da to rikai shiteiru
Onaji itami wo shiru   Doko ka nita futari ha
Marude tsugai no you ni kasaneatte

I realise now that something like “righteousness” is meaningless.
We who are so similar in some ways, who know the same pain,
Repeat things over and over so we can become as one.



手の中にはどこまでも

Onaji itami wo shiru   Doko ka nita futari ha
Marude tsugai no you ni kasaneatte

You’re the reason for this samsara, this unique light.
We who are so similar in some ways, who know the same pain,
Repeat things over and over so we can become as one.

There’s no need to prostrate yourself.
Go out into the world, because you yourself are free.

抱きしめるまで気づけなかった
Shihai no naka de iki ga dekinai fallin angel

Will you part with your future and your civilisation?
O God, the people are betraying your angels.
Will they part with their future and their civilisation?
Oh...

Plunder Translation

Reloaded








「私の貴方」を手に入れるためには
淫靡な態度で攻め込み落としていく
“Watashi no anata” wo te ni ireru tame ni ha
Inbi na taido de semekomi otoshiteiku

In order to possess “you who are mine”,
I’ll attack with impure behaviour and force a surrender.



どうせ男は
人肌に弱い
生き物なのでしょう?
Douse otoko ha
Hitohada ni yowai
Ikimono na no deshou

After all, men
Are weak for body warmth.
They’re living things, aren’t they?



奪って
白い心、染め上げられたら
Ubatte
Shiroi kokoro, someageraretara

When I finish dying
The white heart I’ve stolen away,



私のものなのだと
見せびらかしたい
Watashi no mono na no da to
Misebirakashitai

I want to flaunt
That which is mine.



貴方の鎖骨に
証が付けられて
Anata no sakotsu ni
Akashi ga tsukerarete

I’ll fasten the proof of it
On your collarbone.



瞳を閉じても
まだ焼き付いたまま
Hitomi wo tojite mo
Mada yakitsuita mama

Even if you close your eyes,
It’s still burned into your memory.



締め付けられる
この傷みさえも
何故か愉しすぎて
Shimetsukerareru
Kono itami sae mo
Naze ka tanoshisugite

Even the pain of it tightening
Is somehow
So enjoyable.



奪って
白い心、染め上げられたら
Ubatte
Shiroi kokoro, someageraretara

When I finish dying
The white heart I’ve stolen away,



私が その上へと
唇乗せて
Watashi ga   Sono ue he to
Kuchibiru nosete

I’ll place my lips
Upon it.



ようこそ
愛くるしい「私だけの貴方」
他では味わえない
素敵な世界へ
Youkoso
Aikurushii “watashi dake no anata”
Hoka de ha ajiwaenai
Suteki na sekai he

Welcome,
My sweet “you who are mine alone”.
I won’t be able to appreciate anything else
In the brilliant world we’re going towards.



奪えた
その心を、染め上げてみれば
Ubaeta
Sono kokoro wo, someagete mireba

Once I try to finish dying
That heart I stole away,



昂る胸の鼓動
何処かに消えて…
Takaburu mune no kodou
Dokoka ni kiete...

The palpitations in my haughty breast
Will slightly fade away...

愛した人 Translation

PHOENIX RISING









最後に見た君の香りは もう 僕の知らない人みたいで
別れ話したような気もするけど 覚えちゃいない
Saigo ni mita kimi no kaori ha   Mou   Boku no shiranai hito mitai de
Wakarebanashi shita you na ki mo suru kedo   Oboechainai

The scent of the you that I saw in the end was like that of someone I don't even know.
It feels like we were talking about separating, but I don’t really remember.



君がいただけで 幸せがあったのに
Kimi ga ita dake de   Shiawase ga atta no ni
Even though I was just glad that you were there,



どうしてこんなこと思い出したんだ 少し今に疲れたかな
逃げるように君を思い出した自分が 嫌になるね
Doushite konna koto omoide shita n da   Sukoshi ima ni tsukareta ka na
Nigeru you ni kimi wo omoidashita jibun ga   Iya ni naru ne

Why is it that in thinking about it a bit even now, it tires me?
Now I’m disgusted for remembering you who seemed about to flee.



今はどうしてる? 考えたけれど もう眠ろう
Ima ha dou shiteru?   Kangaeta keredo   Mou nemurou
I’ve thought about what I should do now, but I’m just idling.



愛した人 今も僕のことを 勇気づける
もう会えない 会わないからいいんだ 二人はもう
Ai shita hito   Ima mo boku no koto wo   Yuukizukeru
Mou aenai   Awanai kara ii n da   Futari ha mou

The person I loved is encouraging me even now.
I can't see you anymore, but it’s fine because I wouldn’t go anyway.
The two of us are already...



変わらないでいる? 都合の良い想像ばかり
どんな暮らしでも ああ 笑っていてほしい
Kawaranai de iru?   Tsugou no ii souzou bakari
Donna kurashi de mo   Aa   Waratteite hoshii

Are things the same? That’s a convenient thought.
No matter how I end up living, ah, I just want to smile.



愛した人 今も僕のことを 勇気づける
もう会えない 会わないからいいんだ 二人は
Ai shita hito   Ima mo boku no koto wo   Yuukizukeru
Mou aenai   Awanai kara ii n da   Futari ha

The person I loved is encouraging me even now.
I can't see you anymore, but it’s fine because I wouldn’t go anyway.
The two of us are…



愛した人 今も僕のことを 勇気づける
もう会えない 会わないから 二人幸せ掴んでいく
Ai shita hito   Ima mo boku no koto wo   Yuukizukeru
Mou aenai   Awanai kara   Futari shiawase tsukandeiku

The person I loved is encouraging me even now.
We can't meet anymore. Because we won't see each other, we're
grasping our happiness tightly.
