ラストフレーズ | Last Phrase

Really been enjoying this song, though the whole album is pretty solid. Best vocal performance I’ve heard from Mamemi yet, for sure.

Notes: Usually it’s supposed to be だから when following a noun, but in some stanzas here it’s just から, which would normally mean “through,” “from,” etc when used like that. This hardly fits the context, so I took it to mean だから anyways.

あの歌の続き 聴かせて欲しいよ
不自由な言葉じゃ 紡げやしない
キミだけの歌を世界にヒビカセ
変わらないで欲しい 願いは夜空溶けてく

ano uta no tsudzuki kikasete hoshii yo
fujiyuu na kotoba ja tsumuge ya shinai
kimi dake no uta o sekai ni hibikase
kawaranai de hoshii negai wa yozora tokete ku

I want you to let me listen to the rest of your song
You can’t weave anything with words that aren’t free
Make your song alone resonate throughout the world
I never want it to change, my wish fades into the night sky

幾つ夜を越えて辿り着ける?
イメージだけが巡るだけ
私の願い ただ一つで
まだ届かない夢の中

ikutsu yoru o koete tadori tsukeru?
imeeji dake ga meguru dake
watashi no negai tada hitotsu de
mada todokanai yume no naka

How many nights will it take to make it and reach?
Your image alone just revolves around my head
I only have but a single wish
It still won’t reach, lost in a dream

ココロ奥まで ah…
リフレインしてるキミのフレーズから

kokoro oku made ah…
rifurein shiteru kimi no fureezu kara

To the depths of my heart ah…
Refraining, it’s your phrase after all

あの歌の続き 聴かせて欲しいよ
思い出せないまま 時は流れて
変わりゆく夜に 私とキミだけ
あともう一度だけ 二人で過ごした時を

ano uta no tsudzuki kikasete hoshii yo
omoi dasenai mama toki wa nagarete
kawari yuku yoru ni watashi to kimi dake
ato mou ichido dake futari de sugoshita toki o

I want you to let me listen to the rest of your song
As I remain unable to recall it, time just drains away
In the everchanging night, it was you and I alone
Just one more time, I want that time we spent together

永遠に紡げるなら 幸せだと
哀しげな瞳でキミは言う
その意味がまだ分からぬまま
闇の奥へと消えてゆく

towa ni tsumugeru nara shiawase da to
kanashige na me de kimi wa iu
sono imi ga mada wakaranu mama
yami no oku e to kiete yuku

If I weave could forever, that’d be bliss
you say with eyes full of anguish
I still remain clueless what you meant
disappearing into the abyss of night

二人寄り添う ah…
終わらない歌がキミのメロディから

futari yori sou ah…
owaranai uta ga kimi no merodi kara

You and I grow close ah…
The unending song is your melody after all

拙い歌でもキミだけの歌で
不器用な想いが見つめ合ってる
触れ合うことさえ許されなくても
ただ側にいたくて キミを一人にしないよ

tsutanai uta demo kimi dake no uta de
bukiyou na omoi ga mitsume atteru
fure au koto sae yurusarenakutemo
tada soba ni itakute kimi o hitori ni shinai yo

Even if it’s a shabby song, because it’s yours alone
awkward feelings are looking at each other head-on
Even if it’s forbidden to even feel each other
I just want to be by your side, I won’t leave you all alone

あの歌の続き 聴かせて欲しいよ
不自由な言葉じゃ 紡げやしない
キミだけの歌を世界にヒビカセ
変わらないで欲しい 願いは夜空溶けてく

ano uta no tsudzuki kikasete hoshii yo
fujiyuu na kotoba ja tsumuge ya shinai
kimi dake no uta o sekai ni hibikase
kawaranai de hoshii negai wa yozora tokete ku

I want you to let me listen to the rest of your song
You can’t weave anything with words that aren’t free
Make your song alone resonate throughout the world
I never want it to change, my wish fades into the night sky

ヒトすら遊ぶ 騙しと云う歓迎を
差し出して 転がし手の中で踊らせる

hito sura asobu damashi to iu kangei wo
sashi dashite korogashi te no naka de odoraseru

I even play with humans, presenting a welcome known as deception
Turning them over, I have them dance in the palm of my hands

キミが残した 魔除けの合図

kimi ga nokoshita mayoke no aizu

You had left behind a sign warding evil

いつからか握る
その指 心 刺さる
叶わぬ願いなのに
繰り返して罠をかける

itsu kara ka nigiru
sono yubi kokoro sasaru
kanawanu negai nanoni
kuri kaeshite wana o kakeru

Grasping from some time past
Those fingers pierce my heart
Though my wish can’t come true
I repeatedly set traps

ヒトから見える 不確かな存在を
差し出して転がせよう
閃きの あいであ

hito kara mieru futashika na sonzai o
sashi dashite korogaseyou
hirameki no aidea

Viewed by humans, presenting an unreliable existence
Shall I be able to turn them over?
An idea flashes

キミが忘れてしまわないように

kimi ga wasurete shimawanai you ni

It’s so that you won’t accidentally forget

流れる星なら 解ってくれるだろうと
掴まえた数 数え
100を越えてキミを変える

nagareru hoshi nara wakatte kureru darou to
tsukamaeta kazu kazoe
100 o koete kimi o kaeru

Being a shooting star, I thought you would probably understand
Counting the number I caught,
exceeding 100, I’ll change you

あの日残った 魔除けの合図

ano hi nokotta mayoke no aizu

That day you had left behind a sign warding evil

いつからか握る その指 心 刺さる
叶わぬ願いなのに 繰り返して罠をかける

itsukaraka nigiru sono yubi kokoro sasaru
kanawanu negai nanoni kurikaeshite wana o kakeru

Grasping from some time past, those fingers pierce my heart
Though my wish can’t come true, I repeatedly set traps

この形変えて そのまま 全て触れる
叶わぬ願い無いと 罠をかけた 嘘だらけ

kono katachi kaete sono mama subete fureru
kanawanu negai naito wana o kaketa uso darake

I’ll change my shape and make contact with everything like that
Believing there’s no wish that can’t come true, I had set up traps, riddled with lies

空に流れる星なら 笑ってくれるだろうと・・・
そう キミが泣く事だって
気付きながら 抑えれない

sora ni nagareru hoshi kara waratte kureru darou to…
sou kimi ga naku koto datte
kidzuki nagara osaerenai

Being a star shooting through the sky, I thought you’d probably give me a smile…
Yes, because you cry
I couldn’t hold back while I realized

・・・許して。

…yurushite.

…Forgive me.

Wake up! 眩しくても構わない
Stand up! 早くこの手を引いてよ
まだ知らない世界まで

Wake up! mabushikutemo kamawanai
Stand up! hayaku kono te o hiite yo
mada shiranai sekai made

Wake up! It doesn’t matter if it’s bright
Stand up! Hurry and take my hand
We’re off to a yet unknown world

見知らぬ誰かの 窓に映る横顔
爪を噛む癖 どこかで見たことあるかもね
保存した 過去と未来の断片
気怠い個室の中から 弄び今日も月が出る

mi shiranu dare ka no mado ni utsuru yokogao
tsume o kamu kuse doko ka de mita koto aru kamo ne
hozon shita kako to mirai no danpen
kedarui koshitsu no naka kara moteasobi kyou mo tsuki ga deru

That face reflected in a strangers window
I might have seen that fingernail-biting habit somewhere before
The fragments of the past and future are preserved
Out from within its languid private room, dallying, today too, the moon exits

日常の片手間で
すぐに次から次へ
古くなるトラブルは
蹴飛ばして 空へ駆け出そう

nichijou no katatema de
sugu ni tsugi kara tsugi e
furuku naru toraburu wa
ke tobashite sora e kake dasou

With my everyday leisure time
I go right from one to another
Kick away all old troubles
and let’s take off to the sky

絶対 負けない 負けたくないの
ちょっと 本気にさせてみせてよ
きっと イマドキの退屈な自由はいらない
Wake up! 眩しくても構わない
Stand up! 早くこの手を引いてよ
まだ知らない世界の先へ

zettai makenai maketakunai no
chotto honki ni sasete misete yo
kitto imadoki no taikutsu na jiyuu wa iranai
Wake up! mabushikutemo kamawanai
Stand up! hayaku kono te o hiite yo
mada shiranai sekai no saki e

I absolutely won’t lose, I don’t want to
Show me you’ll take it a little bit serious
We don’t need the boring freedom of these days, I’m sure
Wake up! It doesn’t matter if it’s bright
Stand up! Hurry and take my hand
We’re off to the end of a yet unknown world

間違いだらけの リテラシーに興味ゼロ
星占いで信じてみるのもいいかもね
想像した理想像は曖昧で
口では美徳語るけど 結局はいつも流される

machigai darake no riterashii ni kyoumi zero
hoshiuranai de shinjite miru no mo ii kamo ne
souzou shita risouzou wa aimai de
kuchi de wa bitoku kataru kedo kekkyoku wa itsu mo nagasareru

My interest in illiteracy is zero
Placing your faith on a horoscope might be fine
The ideal image I pictured is vague
Though I’m all talk of virtues, it’s all swept away in the end

居心地のイイ場所が
錯綜する時代で
認めたい価値観は
誰でもない 私が決める

igokochi no ii basho ga
sakusou suru jidai de
mitometai kachikan wa
dare demo nai watashi ga kimeru

In an era where it’s complicated
to find a pleasant place to live,
the set of values that I want to assess
nobody decides except me

絶対 負けない 諦めないの
本当? それとも嘘でもいいの
一旦火の点いた プライドに理由はいらない
Make up! 眩しいのがたまらない
Speed up! 一足先に待ってるわ
遥か遠い地平の先で

zettai makenai akiramenai no
hontou? sore tomo uso demo ii no
ittan hi no tsuita puraido ni riyuu wa iranai
Make up! mabushii no ga tamaranai
Speed up! hitoashi saki ni matteru wa
haruka tooi chihei no saki de

“I absolutely won’t lose, and I won’t give up”
Really? Otherwise, it’s fine if that’s a lie
There’s no need for a reason for a moment of fiery pride
Make up! The brightness is addicting
Speed up! I’ll be waiting one step ahead
at the end of a far, distant horizon

無個性をばらまく
つまらないルールなんか
デタラメに 刺激的に
私が壊してあげる

mukosei o baramaku
tsumaranai ruuru nanka
detarame ni shigekiteki ni
watashi ga kowashite ageru

Boring rules and such
that scatter death of individuality;
nonsensically, thrillingly
I’ll destroy for you

絶対 負けない 負けられないの
真実以外に興味は無いの
今この時に 誰よりも必死になれる
Hurry up! 風の疾きを追い越して
Fly high! 早く「最高」見せてよ
まだ知らない世界の果てで
同じ夢を抱いて 笑い合おう

zettai makenai makerarenai no
hontou igai ni kyoumi wa nai no
ima kono toki ni dare yori mo hisshi ni nareru
Hurry up! kaze no toki o oi koshite
Fly high! hayaku 「saikou」 misete yo
mada shiranai sekai no hate de
onaji yume o daite warai aou

I absolutely won’t lose, I can’t lose
I have interest in nothing but the truth
Right now, at this moment, I can become more frantic than anyone
Hurry up! Surpass the wind’s velocity
Fly high! Hurry and show me “the best”
At the ends of a yet unknown world,
embracing the same dream, let’s smile in unison

Day dreamers

Requested by Alice, the lyrics don’t exactly suggest the characters whose themes this song is based off, if you ask me. I don’t know if there was a message somewhere (perhaps a tweet?) by the one of the artists explicitly saying who it’s about, or if the lyrics are completely generalized (not Touhou related), but, for the time being, Renko x Merry is a good assumption to make.

月を巡る星の数だけ
ワタシは夢を見る
二人は出会うまでの全てを捨てて
どこまでいけるの?

tsuki o meguru hoshi no kazu dake
watashi wa yume o miru
futari wa de au made no subete o sutete
doko made ikeru no?

For each star revolving around the moon
I have a dream
Throwing away everything until we meet,
how far can we go?

花びら舞い散る桜の下で
夜闇を照らした夢物語
いまから始めよう もう一度だけ
見果てぬ あの星掴むまで

hanabira mai chiru sakura no shita de
yo yami o terashita yume monogatari
ima kara hajimeyou mou ichido dake
mi hatenu ano hoshi tsukamu made

Under the cherry blossom tree with petals dancing down
is a story of a dream that lit up the dark night
Let’s begin, starting now, just one more time
until we catch the furthest stars

この瞳が宿す幻想に導かれ
きっと何度でも何度でも繰り返す
魅知の世界を見つけるまで

kono me ga yadosu yume ni michibikare
kitto nando demo nando demo kuri kaesu
michi no sekai o mitsukeru made

Guided by the fantasies and dreams housed in my eyes
I’m sure, time and time again, we’ll keep trying
until we find a mysterious, unknown world

星を探して さぁ夜の街へ
今日も 運命の徒に身を委ね
私たちだけの夢を現に変える

hoshi o sagashite saa yoru no machi e
kyou mo unmei no itazura ni mi o yudane
watashitachi dake no yume o utsutsu ni kaeru

Searching for the stars, let’s go, into the night city
Today too, we’ll leave ourselves to the whims of destiny
and change our dreams alone into reality

深く暗い闇の其処から
あなたが呼ぶ声が
いまでも思い出せず胸を引き裂く
あなたはだれなの?

fukaku kurai yami no soko kara
anata ga yobu koe ga
ima demo omoi dasezu mune o hiki saku
anata wa dare nano?

From the depths of a deep darkness,
your calling voice,
unable to be recalled even now, rips out my heart
Just who are you?

心を渦巻く二つの色が
ワタシの最後の夢物語
今から始めよう もう一度だけ
二人の想い出残す為

kokoro o uzu maku futatsu no iro ga
watashi no saigo no yume monogatari
ima kara hajimeyou mou ichido dake
futari no omoide nokosu tame

The two colours sweeping our hearts
make up the end of my dream story
Let’s begin, starting now, just one more time
for the sake of leaving memories of us together

この瞳を奪う現実に導かれ
きっと何でも何でも繰り返す
魅知の世界を見つけるまで

kono me o ubau yume ni michibikare
kitto nando demo nando demo kuri kaesu
michi no sekai o mitsukeru made

Guided by the reality and dreams stealing away my eyes
I’m sure, time and time again, we’ll keep trying
until we find a mysterious, unknown world

星の流れる この夜の街に
今日も運命の徒が微笑んで
私たちだけの幻想が現実に変わる

hoshi no nagareru kono yoru no machi ni
kyou mo unmei no itazura ga hohoende
watashitachi dake no yume ga utsutsu ni kawaru

In the night city, with the stars shooting,
today too, with the whims of destiny smiling,
our dreams and fantasies alone are going to transform into reality

ふと耳を澄ませば
嗚呼、懐かしいあの声
世界の全てを暴く声
また出会えると信じて
溢れた涙

futo mimi o sumaseba
aa, natsukashii ano koe
sekai no subete o abaku koe
mata de aeru to shinjite
afureta namida

If you happen to clear your ears
ah, you’ll hear that nostalgic voice
The voice revealing everything about the world
Believing that we’ll be able to meet again
the tears flooded out

心に残る記憶に導かれ
きっと何でも何でも繰り返す
魅知の世界を見つけるまで

kokoro ni nokoru kioku ni michibikare
kitto nando demo nando demo kuri kaesu
michi no sekai o mitsukeru made

Guided by the memories remaining in my heart,
I’m sure, time and time again, we’ll keep trying
until we find a mysterious, unknown world

君を探して また夜の街へ
今日は運命の徒を乗り越えて
私たちだけの明日を未来に変える

kimi o sagashite mata yoru no machi e
kyou wa unmei no itazura o nori koete
watashitachi dake no yume o utsutsu ni kaeru

Searching for you, to the night city again,
today we’ll overcome the whims of destiny
and turn our dreams of tomorrow alone into the reality of the future
