あの空の彼方へ 飛んで行ける日を夢見て

ano sora no kanata e tonde yukeru hi o yumemite

I dream of the day that I can fly far beyond the sky

あの宇宙の彼方の月を

ano sora no kanata no tsuki o

over that moon far beyond the sky

あの空の彼方は 今もまだあの日と同じ

ano sora no kanata wa ima mo mada ano hi to onaji

The other side of the sky is even now the same as the old days

あの宇宙の彼方の月に焦がれる

ano sora no kanata no tsuki ni kogareru

I yearn for the moon far beyond the sky

月の見えない夜に独り空を見上げて
悲しく歌う故郷は闇夜が包んでいる

tsuki no mienai yoru ni hitori sora o mi agete
kanashiku utau furusato wa yamiyo ga tsutsundeiru

During nights when you can’t see the moon, alone I look up to the sky
My old home that sadly sings their song is wrapped up by the dark night

月の明るい夜は連れ立ち空を見上げ
帰ることなき故郷の幸せを祈るだけ

tsuki no akarui yoru wa tsuretachi sora o miage
kaeru koto naki furusato no shiawase o inoru dake

During nights when the moon is shining bright, I look up to the sky it’s with
Being unable to go back to my home, I can only wish for their happiness

菜の花を一つだけ手折り
夕暮れの空に翳して
日は沈み月が顔を覗かせ夜が来る

na no hana o hitotsu dake taori
yuugure no sora ni kazashite
hi wa shizumi tsuki ga kao o nozokase yoru ga kuru

I break off just a single canola flower
and hold it up to the evening sky
The sun sets, the moon gives a glimpse of my face, night approaches

あの空の彼方へ 飛んで行ける日を夢見て

ano sora no kanata e tonde yukeru hi o yumemite

I dream of the day that I can fly far beyond the sky

あの宇宙の彼方の月へ

ano sora no kanata no tsuki e

far beyond the sky, to the moon

いつかは

itsuka wa

eventually

帰る日を想って 涙に暮れる夜明けには

kaeru hi o omotte namida ni kureru yoake ni wa

During nights that are spent in tears, I think about the day that I will return home

沈んでゆく月にただ手を伸ばす

shizunde yuku tsuki ni tada te o nobasu

When the moon starts to set, I just extend out my arm

届かない故郷 今宵は空に輝いて

todokanai furusato koyoi wa sora ni kagayaite

My old home that I can not reach, tonight it’s shining in the sky

ただ見上げる私 ずっと想っている

tada miageru watashi zutto omotteiru

I just look up to the sky, always thinking

いつまでも

itsu made mo

eternally

あの空の彼方へ 飛んで行ける日はいつだろう?

ano sora no kanata e tonde yukeru hi wa itsu darou?

The day that I can fly far beyond the sky, I wonder when that’ll be?

この願い叶うのなら輝く月へ

kono negai kanau no nara kagayaku tsuki e

If this wish will ever come true, off to the shining moon!

ありがとう | Arigatou | Thank You

Someday you’ll turn into an adult
and when all our times turn into memories
one more time, let’s meet up here again
after all, I’ll be waiting

When we first met each other
with your face, burst into a smile

During our usual evenings
we just joined our hands
I had wanted to be spoiled by you
I lightly pulled on your dress

Every day we faced each other was simply
each and every moment, precious

Saint

After translating Dolls, I wondered how many other Alstroemeria songs I liked that were untranslated (even though this was actually arranged by Syrufit), and was surprised to find this one. I spent way longer than I should have, working on this one. I think I may have put a little too many tags onto this one.

★ Title: Saint
☆ Album: Fragment Reactions
Love best
★ Album Artists: Syrufit (Studio “Syrup Comfiture”)
Alstroemeria Records
☆ Vocals and lyrics: Mei Ayakura (綾倉盟)
★ Arrangement: Syrufit (Studio “Syrup Comfiture”)
☆ Original Title: Reincarnation

 

渇きを潤すぬるい風
あと幾つ数えるの
切なさが思い出になるまで
少し夢見させて

kawaki o uruosu nurui kaze
ato ikutsu kazoeru no
setsunasa ga omoide ni naru made
sukoshi yume misasete

A lukewarm, damp air that quenches thirst
How many more will you count?
Until my memories become painful
let me dream a little more

もし生まれ変われるなら
想いは届かない場所へ

moshi umare kawareru nara
omoi wa todokanai basho e

If I were to be able to be born again
then off, out to the place where my thoughts don’t reach

記憶 紐を解いて
ひとつずつ辿ってみるの
吸い込まれそうなほど
透き通った時間彷徨う
引き換えに出来るのは
瞳と心と囁き
願い叶うのなら
あなたのキスで溶かして

kioku himo o toite
hitotsu zutsu tadotte miru no
sui komaresou na hodo
suki tootta jikan samayou
hikikae ni dekiru no wa
hitomi to kokoro to sasayaki
nagai kanau no nara
anata no kisu de tokashite

Untying strings of my memories
one by one I try to follow up
It seems I’ve done it enough for them to be sucked in
To wander about a time that’s become transparent

For this, I can exchange
my eyes, heart and whispers
If my wish comes true
then melt with your kiss

見上げる事を躊躇ってた
星空が包み込む
優しく浮かぶは朧月夜
どうして泣いてるの。。。?

mi ageru koto o tameratteta
hoshizora ga tsutsumi komu
yasashiku ukabu wa oborodzukiyo
doushite naiteru no…?

I had hesitated to look on up
The starry sky is wrapped up
by a gently floating misty, moonlit night
Why am I crying now…?

もし生まれ変われるなら
私は私でいさせて

moshi umare kawareru nara
watashi wa watashi de isasete

If I were to be able to be born again
let me stay as myself

もう振り返らない
焦がれる幸せ犠牲に
この手を刃にして
壊す事なんてできない
零れ落ちる涙は
流れ星にならなかった
いっそ消えるのなら
あなたのキスで溶かして

mou furi kaeranai
kogareru shiawase gisei ni
kono te o yabai ni shite
kowasu koto nante dekinai
kobare ochiru namida wa
nagareboshi ni naranakatta
isso kieru no nara
anata no kisu de tokashite

I won’t look back anymore
at the sacrifice it took for this longed for happiness
I turn my arm into a blade
but I can’t destroy anything
My tears that spill and fall
haven’t turned into shooting stars
If they’d sooner disappear
then melt me with your kiss

Without words I melt into moon
I still love you No reason, it’s my fate

I still love you I melt into moon
I still love you No reason, it’s my fate…

Without words I melt into moon
I still love you No reason, it’s my fate

I still love you I melt into moon
I still love you No reason, it’s my fate…

Requested by Kii, an Alstroemeria original! I love that great feeling when you read over a song and you just know the translation’s gonna turn out perfect. This song somewhat reminds me of the Higurashi opening.

Continuing to love and believe in you, waiting for the time when you come to pick me up

貴方の胸にやっと触れた そこに温かさはなかった
開くことない貴方の目を そっと愛おしくて触れる
業火の中で朽ち果てても ずっと貴方の傍いられる
貴方のために此処にいるわ

anata no tame ni koko ni iru wa

Finally I’ve been hugged close your chest, but there was no warmth there
Softly and lovingly I feel you, whose eyes are never to open again
Even when I’m burned to ash in the hellfire, I’ll always be by your side
I’m right here, for your sake alone

I’m a Doll ずっと貴方の物

I’m a Doll zutto anata no mono

I’m a doll, forever belonging to you
