刹那のMisty | setsuna no Misty | A Misty Moment

Request by Primity. Looks like I couldn’t sleep until I did at least a little bit more editing to this.  Today was supposed to be a day to catch up on my to-do list, but I ended up doing nothing on it. _| ̄|○

Notes: During the line “もうそれしか聞こえないとナイテタ,” due to “naiteta” being in katakana, it’s a vague meaning. It could mean “cried” or “sang.” It could be interpreted either as the person being driven mad by the song crying that they can’t hear anything but it anymore, or the meaning I currently have in place. I chose this because the rest of the stanza also comes from the perspective of the singer.

闇に揺らめく歌が聞こえた
狂ってゆくもどちらでもない
足は止まらず通り過ぎては
行き交う音にキミはいなくて

yami ni yurameku uta ga kikoeta
kurutte yuku mo dochira demo nai
ashi wa tomarazu toori sugite wa
yuki kau oto ni kimi wa inakute

My song wavering in the darkness could be heard
Even if you turn mad, there’s no other way
Without stopping your feet, passing on through
you’re no longer here for my sound

“hello,my dear friend” 私にコタエテホシイノ

“hello, my dear friend” watashi ni kotaete hoshii no”

“Hello, my dear friend” I want to hear you respond to me

ah,こっちを向いてよ気付いてるでしょ?
ありのままでいいの・・・
もう、歌しか聞こえなくていいよ
キミを狂わせたのはダレナノ?

ah, kocchi o muite yo kidzuiteru desho?
ari no mama de ii no…
mou, uta shika kikoenakute ii yo
kimi o kuruwaseta no wa dare nano?

Ah, face right this way, you notice don’t you?
You’re fine as you are…
It’s alright if you’re deaf to all but the song
Who’s the one that’s driven you mad?

足元にある無数の刹那でさえ ほらキエテク
月は輝くことさえ忘れてく
私の歌があればそれだけでいい
もうそれしか聞こえないとナイテタ

ashimoto ni aru musuu no setsuna de sae hora kiete ku
tsuki wa kagayaku koto sae wasurete ku
watashi no uta ga areba sore dake de ii
mou sore shika kikoenai to naiteta

Everything down at your feet, look, it’ll vanish before you can start to count
You’ll even forget that the moon shines
As long as you have my song, that alone’s enough
“You won’t hear anything but that anymore” I sang

見上げた空に願いの数だけあるユメ
そこには二人で見るユメなんてないことを
知ってたんだよ ずっと前から私
ねえ一度でいいから振り向いてよ

mi ageta sora ni negai no kazu dake aru yume
soko ni wa futari de miru yume nante nai koto o
shittetan da yo zutto mae kara watashi
nee ichido de ii kara furi muite yo

You have a dream for every time you pray up to the sky
Those are not the kinds of dreams that I share with you
I’ve known that, all along I have
Hey, just this once I’ll let you take a look back

終わらないでと思えば思うほどに
今、夜明けがキミを優しく包み込んでゆくの
足は止まらず通り過ぎてゆくキミ
もうこの歌聞こえなくなったから

owaranai de to omoeba omou hodo ni
ima, yoake ga kimi o yasashiku tsutsumi konde yuku no
ashi wa tomarazu toori sugite yuku kimi
mou kono uta kikoenaku natta kara

The more I give it though, the more I think “Never end”
but now, the dawn comes to tenderly embrace you
Without stopping your feet, you pass on through
you’ve become unable to hear my song, after all

水と機械の国から | mizu to kikai no kuni kara | From a Country of Water and Machines

I think I went in a bit over my head here with this one, so many new words.. Usually in song translations I only come across a small handful. The Mamizou arrange in this album looks like it’s going to be tough too.

Notes: The pororoca is a tidal bore, with waves up to 4 metres high that travel as much as 800 km inland upstream on the Amazon River and adjacent rivers.

遥かな山の麓 光が照らす水面
人間との距離はそっと 平和の雫 潤している

haruka na yama no fumoto hikari ga terasu minamo
hito to no kyori wa sotto heiwa no shizuku uruoshiteiru

Far off at the base of the mountain, where the light shines on the water’s surface
our distance from humans is secretly moistened with drops of harmony

光学迷彩 妖怪弾道 水棲技師
河童よ 人間よ 友情の架け橋は何処?

kougaku meisai youkai dandou suisei gishi
kappa yo hito yo yuujou no kake hashi wa doko?

Optical camouflage – youkai ballistics – aquatic engineers
Where is the suspension bridge for the friendship between kappa and humans?

ゆっくりと じっくりと 見続けて来た
光輝く水底の国からね

yukkuri to jikkuri to mi tsudzukete kita
hikari kagayaku mizuzoko no kuni kara ne

Slowly and carefully I came to take a gaze
from the shining country under the river

しっかりと キューカンバー 見立てているの
光り輝く銀色の自慢の兵器

shikkari to kyuukanbaa mi tateteiru no
hikari kagayaku gin iro no jiman heiki

Looking completely like cucumbers
weapons of my pride shine silver

冷たい水の流れ 冷たい鉄の硬さ
人間との仲をずっと 育む息吹 現している

tsumetai mizu no nagare tsumetai tetsu no katasa
hito to no naka o zutto hagukumu ibuki arawashiteiru

The stream of freezing water, the toughness of cold iron
Always showing signs that our we raise our relationship with humans

幻想幕府 分水境界 伸びる腕
河童よ 人間よ 生命の故郷は其処

gensou bakufu bun sui kyoukai nobiru ude
kappa yo hito yo seimei no furusato wa soko

Illusion shogunates – part water boundaries – our arms are outstretched
Kappa and humans, where we came into existence is over there

大逆流 ポロロッカ 大涙浴びて
水は輪廻と循環の象徴ね

dai gyakuryuu pororokka oonamida abite
mizu wa rinne to junkan no shouchou ne

The giant tidal bore, the pororoca, bathe in that giant wave
Water is the symbol of samsara and cycles

きっちりと 寸分の誤りもなく
物理計算 観測する幻想郷

kicchiri to sunbun no ayamari mo naku
butsuri keisan kansoku suru gensoukyou

Without fail, without the slightest mistake
Gensokyo is observing the calculations of physics

ゆっくりと じっくりと 見続けて来た
光輝く水底の国からね

yukkuri to jikkuri to mi tsudzukete kita
hikari kagayaku mizuzoko kuni kara ne

Slowly and carefully I came to take a gaze
from the shining country under the river

しっかりと キューカンバー 見立てているの
光り輝く銀色の自慢の兵器

shikkari to kyuukanbaa mi tateteiru no
hikari kagayaku gin iro no jiman no heiki

Looking completely like cucumbers
weapons of my pride shine silver

澄んだ心 水の世界 乾き癒す波紋よ
好奇心を満たす力 「橋」の鍵をあげるわ

sunda kokoro mizu no sekai kawaki iyasu hamon yo
koukishin o mitasu chikara 「hashi」 no kagi o ageru wa

Our hearts are clear in this world of water, the ripples will cure dryness
We’ll give you the key to our “bridge” with the power to satisfy our curious hearts

春風のアンブレラ | harukaze no anburera | Spring Breeze Umbrella

This was a cute one! I was tied between doing this song, or the Mamizou or Nitori ones today. Taking requests really is a great way to discover new music. Appears there’s no video on youtube for this song either, I know what I’ll be working on tonight or tomorrow.

桜色の春風に乗せて
きっと ずっと 待ち続けて

sakura iro no haru kaze ni nosete
kitto zutto machi tsudzukete

Sending out on a pink spring breeze
surely, always, I’ll keep on waiting

曇り空を見上げて ふいに
キミの横顔がよぎった そんな日

kumori zora o mi agete fui ni
kimi no yokogao ga yogitta sonna hi

On that day, when I looked to the cloudy sky
suddenly, your face passed by me

通り雨 傘広げ 影落ちて
踊る雨露 跳ねるリズムがやさしいの

tooriame kasa hiroge kage ochite
odoru amatsuyu haneru rizumu ga yasashii no

The rain showered, umbrellas opened, and their shadows fell
It’s easy to jump to the rhythm of the dancing rain

雨が音色奏でるアンブレラ
私一人だけのために

ame ga neiro kanaderu anburera
watashi hitori dake no tame ni

The rain makes a performance on my umbrella
for my sake, and mine alone

やがて空は晴れ渡り
春の空に虹を架けてよ さあ

yagate sora wa hare watari
haru no sora ni niji o kakete yo saa

Before long, the skies clear up
and a rainbow is formed in the spring sky, see

水溜りに映った顔は
そっと ゆらゆらと揺れてる キラキラ

mizutamari ni utsutta kao wa
sotto yurayura to yureteru kirakira

My face reflected in the puddle
gently sways from side to side, sparkling

春の雨通り過ぎ 陽が射して
やわらかな風 季節の息吹 感じるの

haru no ame toori sugi hi ga sashite
yawaraka na kaze kisetsu no ibuki kanjiru no

After the spring rain passes, the sun shines
I can feel the breath of the season, a soft wind

光浴びて うららかな弥生
そっと この想いに重ね

hikari abite uraraka na yayoi
sotto kono omoi ni kasane

Bathing in the light – It’s a beautiful March
Quietly, adding to my feelings

春の香り 風に乗せて届け
いつか キミに伝わるまで

haru no kaori kaze ni nosete todoke
itsuka kimi ni tsutawaru made

I’ll send a scent of spring riding on the wind
until someday it’s flown to you

重なった丸い影 並んでる
ホントはひとつ それが良いよねアンブレラ

kasanatta marui kage naranderu
honto wa hitotsu sore ga ii yo ne anburera

Alongside piles of other round shadows
only one is real, that’s fine isn’t it? One umbrella

春の風が 新しい出会い予感させて
風見鶏はキミの方に向いてるの わかる?
きっと ずっと これからもね

haru no kaze ga atarashii de ai yokan sasete
kazamidori wa kimi no hou ni muiteru no wakaru
kitto zutto kore kara mo ne

The spring wind gives me a hunch that I’ll meet new people
The rooster on the weather vane is facing you, don’t you know?
Surely, from here on out and forever

泡沫 | utakata | Transience

Or it could be pronounced houmatsu. Requested by Maria. I like IZNA’s lyrics, they tend to flow rather well.

This one’s about someone who seems to be deserted. What could the “Vaguely I continue to show off” and “Somehow, oh would you please display this body of mine, even if I sigh, even if I sigh, so that I won’t be rewarded again” mean, I wonder? The first idea I get from this song is one of a stripper, but hey, it’s all up for your own interpretation.

だれかおねがい
このみをひきさいて
あばれても、もがいても
にげだせぬように
おとをたてて
いのちはくずれおち
おまえさえいなければ
いいきかせ、あ やめて

dareka onegai
kono mi o hiki saite
abaretemo, mogaitemo
nige dasenu you ni
oto o tatete
inochi wa kuzure ochi
omae sae inakereba
ii kikase, a yamete

Somebody, oh would you please
tear this body of mine to shreds
even if I fight back, even if I struggle
so that I can’t run away
I make a sound
“My life is falling apart”
As long as I don’t have you
I’m warning you, ah, give it up

群れを成す 背中が嫌い
彼の色まで淡く見える
飛ぶ鳥 葯を担え
あの人まで運んでおくれ

mure o nasu senaka ga kirai
kano iro made awaku mieru
tobu tori yaku o ninae
ano hito made hakondeokure

I hate it when people turn their backs and form groups
I can faintly see that far colour of his
The flying birds carry pollen
spreading it as far as that person

曖昧に振り回し続け
揺れるあんた方何処さ
生まれたからには
咲いて朽ち果てるの

aimai ni furi mawashi tsuzuke
yureru anta gata doko sa
umareta kara ni wa
saite kuchi hateru no

Vaguely I continue to show off
Where have you all swayed off to?
Now that we’ve been born
we must bloom, then rot and decay

何度も同じ痛みを味わえど
感覚は他人事
ねぇ今何してるの?
宙に描く 「私」は「私」を
どこまでも追いかけて
知らぬ顔で嗤う

nando mo onaji itami o ajiwaedo
kankaku wa taningoto
nee ima nani shiteru no?
chuu ni egaku 「watashi」 wa 「watashi」 o
dokomade mo oikakete
shiranu kao de warau

No matter how many times I taste this same pain
I can’t mind my own business
Hey, what are you doing right now?
I write it in space that “I” am “me”
No matter how far, I’ll chase after you
and I’ll laugh while pretending not to know

吐き捨ててまた繰り返して
色も判らなくなった
欺く群青
遠く見えて消えた

haki sutete mata kurikaeshite
iro mo wakaranaku natta
azamuku gunjou
tooku miete kieta

I spit out, and repeat it again
I can’t understand what colour you even are anymore
A deceiving ultramarine far away
could be seen, until it disappeared

どうかお願い
この身を差し出して
嘆いても嘆いても
二度と報われぬような
痕をつけて私の証明を
世知辛いこの浮世
知らぬ顔で嗤う

douka onegai
kono mi o sashidashite
nageite mo nageite mo
nido to mukuwarenu you na
ato o tsukete watashi no shoumei o
sechigarai kono ukiyo
shiranu kao de warau

Somehow, oh would you please
display this body of mine
even if I sigh, even if I sigh
so that I won’t be rewarded again
I leave behind my tracks as proof I was here
It’s a tough life, this transient life
and I’ll laugh while pretending not to know
