小さく枯れた 砂上の花のように
小さく笑って 消えてしまえたら
寂しさ 隠して 数えた 星の数
伸ばした指先 ただ 震えている

chiisaku kareta sajou no hana no you ni
chiisaku waratte kiete shimaetara
samishisa kakushite kazoeta hoshi no kazu
nobashita yubisaki tada furueteiru

Like a small withered flower atop sand
if I could just give a small smile and completely disappear
I would have hid my loneliness and counted the stars
but my extended fingers are merely trembling

輝く数多の星 僕を照らすけど
僕の瞳に 映る星はひとつだけ

kagayaku amata no hoshi boku o terasu kedo
boku no hitomi ni utsuru hoshi wa hitotsu dake

Though tons of sparkling stars shine upon me
in my eyes, there’s only one star I see

笑いあって 信じあって 時に泣いたりした
想い出は 粉々に 砕け散ってゆくのに
触れたら もう崩れてしまうこと わかっていた
それでも たった一人 君に 君に触れてほしい

warai atte shinji atte toki ni naitari shita
omoide wa konagona ni kudake chitte yuku noni
furetara mou kuzurete shimau koto wakatteita
sore demo tatta hitori kimi ni kimi ni furete hoshii

We laughed together, had faith in each other, sometimes cried together and more
though our memories will be crushed into little bits
I understood that it’d all come crumbling down with just a touch
but even so, all alone, I want, I want to feel your touch

小さく揺れた 沈黙の夢のように
儚い歌だと 笑ってくれたなら
哀しさ 許して 見上げた 星の数
視えない旅路に ただ 震えている

chiisaku yureta shijima no yume no you ni
hakanai uta da to waratte kureta nara
kanashisa yurushite mi ageta hoshi no kazu
mienai tabiji ni tada furueteiru

If you gave me a smile because it’s a brief song
like a silent dream that had a small shake
I would have allowed the grief and looked up at the number of stars
but I’m merely trembling on a journey I can not see

小さな星で 遠く 君を照らすけど
君の瞳に 映る星はひとつだけ

chiisa na hoshi de tooku kimi o terasu kedo
kimi no hitomi ni utsuru hoshi wa hitotsu dake

Although I shine on you from afar on a small planet,
in your eyes, there’s only one star you see

寂しくて 哀しくて どこにも行けなかった
思い出は 灰になって 色あせてしまうのに
触れたら もう壊れてしまうこと わかっていた
それなら たった一人 君に 君に触れてほしい

samishikute kanashikute doko ni mo ikenakatta
omoide wa hai ni natte iro asete shimau noni
furetara mou jkowarete shimau koto wakatteita
sore nara tatta hitori kimi ni kimi ni furete hoshii

Being lonely and feeling sad, I couldn’t go anywhere
despite my memories turning to ash and losing their colour
I understood that it’d all fall apart with just a touch
If that’s the case, all alone, I want, I want to feel your touch

奪いあって 傷つけあって どこへ行けるのだろう
月も星も見えない静かなこんな夜は
笑いあった 信じあった 時に泣いたりした
優しい思い出が たった一つの星になる

ubai atte kizutsuke atte doko e yukeru no darou
tsuki mo hoshi mo mienai shizuka na konna yoru wa
warai atta shinji atta toki ni naitari shita
yasashii omoide ga tatta hitotsu ni naru

Stealing from each other, hurting each other, just where can we go?
On quiet nights like these when the moon and stars are hidden
We laughed together, had faith in each other, sometimes cried together and more
These tender memories will become just a single star

笑いあって 信じあって 時に泣いたりした
想い出は 粉々に 砕け散ってゆくのに
触れたら もう崩れてしまうこと わかっていた
それでも たった一人 君に 君に触れてほしい

warai atte shinji atte toki ni naitari shita
omoide wa konagona ni kudake chitte yuku noni
furetara mou kuzurete shimau koto wakatteita
sore demo tatta hitori kimi ni kimi ni furete hoshii

We laughed together, had faith in each other, sometimes cried together and more
though our memories will be crushed into little bits
I understood that it’d all come crumbling down with just a touch
but even so, all alone, I want, I want to feel your touch

Blue Skies

It’s a calm and peaceful song, I’ll give it that. Those strums are really nice.

☆ Title: Blue Skies
★ Album: POP | CULTURE 4
☆ Album Artist: Alstroemeria Records
★ Vocals: mican*
☆ Arrangement: Masayoshi Minoshima
★ Lyrics: Haruka
☆ Original Title: Eastern Blue Sky (東方の青い空)

透き通る 青い空 見ていたら 眠くなる
あとでいい だめなのに 明日から やればいい
そんな気に なるぐらい 穏やかで 優しくて
青い空 見ていると 焦りさえ なくなるね

suki tooru aoi sora miteitara nemuku naru
ato de ii dame nanoni ashita kara yareba ii
sonna ki ni naru gurai odayaka de yasashikute
aoi sora miteiru to aseri sae naku naru yo

When looking at the clear blue skies you get sleepy
It’ll be fine later, though this is no good, it’ll be fine if I start tomorrow
It’s so calm and gentle that I feel like that
When looking at the blue skies, even impatience goes away

透き通る 青い空 見続けて サボり癖
だめだけど これでいい 明日なら できるはず
大変な 日常も 忘れてた 気にせずに
青い空 見ていると 気持ちほら 落ち着くね

suki tooru aoi sora mi tsudzukete saboriguse
dame dakedo kore de ii ashita nara dekiru hazu
taihen na nichijou mo wasureteta ki ni sezu ni
aoi sora miteiru to kimochi hora ochi tsuku no

Continuing to look at the clear blue skies, procrastination
It’s no good, but I’m fine with this, I should be able to do it tomorrow
Without giving a second thought, I had forgotten troubling daily life
When looking at the blue skies, your feelings, look, calm down

Last Remain

I didn’t really want to post this one yet. This was the by-ear transcription I was most unsure of this album, which was a shame, because it was probably my favourite song.

☆ Title: Last Remain
★ Album: POP | CULTURE 4
☆ Album Artist: Alstroemeria Records
★ Vocals: Nachi Sakaue (坂上なち)
☆ Arrangement: Nhato
★ Lyrics: Haruka
☆ Original Title: Last Remote (ラストリモート)
★ Website: http://alst.net/


夢のよう 何もない 苦しさも忘れられる
夢からは 覚めなくて 独りきりでいられるから
いつからか 忘れてた 君のこと好きなことも
いつまでも 目覚めない 自分だけのこの世界で

yume no you nani mo nai kurushisa mo wasurerareru
yume kara wa samenakute hitori kiri de irareru kara
itsu kara ka wasureteta kimi no koto suki na koto mo
itsu made mo mezamenai jibun dake no kono sekai de

Like a dream, there’s nothing, I can even forget suffering
I can be all alone without waking from this dream after all
Sometime or another, I had forgotten about you, even what I liked
Never will I open my eyes in this world of mine alone

あの場所から逃げて まだ見えてないままで
消えたくて 目を伏せた
あの時から残る まだ消えてない傷は
言えなくて
癒えなくて
居れなくて

ano basho kara nigete mada mietenai mama de
kietakute me o fuseta
ano toki kara nokoru mada kietenai kizu wa
ienakute
ienakute
irenakute

Running away from that place, remaining unseen,
wanting to disappear, I lowered my eyes

The scars remaining from that time, yet to fade away,
I can’t speak of,
won’t heal,
I can’t be like this

いつか消えてゆく傷なら まだ辛くないけれど
消えなくて 残されて

itsu ka kiete yuku kizu nara mada tsurakunai keredo

kienakute nokosarete

If it were a scar to someday disappear, it wouldn’t still be so painful, however
it won’t disappear, left behind

ここは 何もない
あるのは終わりだけ
今も なにもない
終わりだけの場所ね

koko wa nani mo nai aru no wa owari dake
ima mo nani mo nai owari dake no basho ne

There’s nothing here
A
ll there is the end
Even now, there’s nothing
It’s just a place of endings

今もあの時から残る まだ消えてない傷は
言えなくて
癒えなくて
居れなくて

ima mo ano toki kara nokoru mada kietenai kizu wa
ienakute
ienakute
irenakute

Even now, the scars remaining from that time, yet to fade away,
I can’t speak of,
won’t heal,
I can’t be like this

いつか消えてゆけるのなら 君のこと忘れたい
言えなくて 消せなくて 泣いたまま

itsu ka kiete yukeru no nara kimi no koto wasuretai
ienakute kesenakute naita mama

If they can disappear someday, I want to forget about you
Unable to speak, nor erase it, I remained crying

Exstricate

What’s with Mei’s songs lately? Her lyrics are getting shorter and shorter. It’s a bit of a shame, given her great voice.

☆ Title: Exstricate
★ Album: POP | CULTURE 4

☆ Arrangement: Masayoshi Minoshima

絶望も悲しみも 私には関係ない
自分が良ければいい
淡くても 紅くても 色づくものはないから
静寂はまだ続く 
時の中で

zetsubou mo kanashimi mo watashi ni wa kankei nai
jibun ga yokereba ii
awakutemo akakutemo irodzuku mono wa nai kara
seijaku wa mada tsudzuku
toki no naka de

Despair and sorrow, I have nothing to do with either
It’s fine if I’m acceptable
Thought pale, though red, there’s nothing changing colours
so the silence will still continue
in the midst of time

見えてない 自分だけ 周りのことは見えない
自分が分からなくて
常識も 非常識 私だけが正しいと
暗闇はまだ続く 
胸の中で

mietenai jibun dake mawari no koto wa mienai
jibun ga wakaranakute
joushiki mo hijoushiki watashi dake ga tadashii to
kurayami wa mada tsudzuku
mune no naka de

I can’t see, just myself, and nothing else
I don’t understand myself
Common sense and the lack thereof, if I’m the only one correct
the darkness will still continue
within my heart

時の中で

toki no naka de

In the midst of time
