Visions

Taking Nachi’s original song spot, this is a really cute song. Normally I like my Ayame with as sad lyrics as possible, but this time it’s okay. I imagine this as a prequel to Days.
I’m also a sucker for when songs have introductions / outroductions.

STILL NO LYRICS ANYWHERE.
This seems to be a relatively slow Comiket (Reitaisai speed).

いつの間に日差しが強くなって
降り注ぐ光の中にいるね
じめじめと沈んでた心なら
サヨナラ
サヨナラ

itsu no ma ni hizashi ga tsuyoku natte
furi sosogu hikari no naka ni iru ne
jimejime to shizundeta kokoro nara
sayonara
sayonara

Just when did the sunshine get so strong
and we be left in a downpour of light?
Now to my sodden and sunken heart:
Goodbye
Goodbye

たくさんの知らないこと 見つける旅出てみよう
JUMPして前向いて 胸を張り顔を上げて
たくさんの知らないこと 出会えたなら素敵だね
ほんの少しある 勇気を大きくして

takusan no shiranai koto mitsukeru tabi dete miyou
JUMP shite mae muite mune o hari kae agete
takusan no shiranai koto de aeta nara suteki da ne
hon no sukoshi aru yuuki o ookiku shite

Let’s try going on a trip to find lots of new things
Jumping and looking forward, chest out and face raised
Wouldn’t it be lovely if we found lots of new things
Turning just a little courage into something big

君から少しもらった 夢ならここにあるよ
ひとつが大切だからね 負けないよう育てよう
今ならわかるからね 出逢いは意味があるって
いつかは君に届けたい 私からの「ありがとう」

kimi kara sukoshi moratta yume nara koko ni aru yo
hitotsu ga taisetsu dakara ne makenai you sodateyou
ima nara wakaru kara ne deai wa imi ga aru tte
itsu ka wa kimi ni todoketai watashi kara no 「arigatou」

Those few dreams you gave me? They’re right here
One is special, so hey, let’s raise it so it won’t lose
Because I can understand now, that meetings have meaning
I want to send you someday a thanks from me

降りしきる強い雨の中でも
すぐやむと笑顔で君に言える
あの頃の自分はもういないよ
サヨナラ
サヨナラ

furi shikiru tsuyoi ame no naka demo
sugu yamu to egao de kimi ni ieru
ano koro no jibun wa mou inai yo
sayonara
sayonara

Even in a strong torrent of rain
I can tell you with a smile it’ll stop soon
My old self is no longer here
Goodbye
Goodbye

たくさんの知らないこと 見つけにさぁ出かけよう
JUMPして前向いて 胸を張り顔を上げて
たくさんの知らないこと 怖くない怖くないよ
ほんの少しある 勇気を大きくして

takusan no shiranai koto mitsuke ni saa de kakeyou
JUMP shite mae muite mune o hari kao agete
takusan no shiranai koto kowakunai kowakunai yo
hon no sukoshi aru yuuki o ookiku shite

Let’s go out to find lots of new things, come on
Jumping and looking forward, chest out and face raised
There are lots of new things, it’s not scary, it really isn’t
Turning just a little courage into something big

君から少しもらった 勇気がここにあるよ
今なら自然に言えるよ「こんにちは」と「ありがとう」
君から少しもらった 希望と夢の続き
今なら君に届くかな 私からの「ありがとう」

kimi kara sukoshi moratta yuuki ga koko ni aru yo
ima nara shisen ni ieru yo 「konnichiwa」 to 「arigatou」
kimi kara sukoshi moratta kibou to yume no tsudzuki
ima nara kimi ni todoku kana watashi kara no arigatou

The little courage you gave me is right here
Now I can say them naturally, “good day” and “thank you”
Carrying on the few dreams and hopes you gave me
I wonder if now it’ll reach you, a “thanks” from me

Back Down

I’m glad nomico’s starting to make regular appearances in Alst again, but I’m not sure I want another Pop Culture album.
Comiket comes around again! Once I get the scans for this and the Zytokine albums, you can expect a marathon.

日は沈んで 光薄れて
砕け散る願い事を 残さず 集めて
光の裏の 影の私と
出会えずにいままでもまだ 二人は背を向けて

hi wa shizunde hikari usurete
kudake chiru negaigoto o nokosazu atsumete
hikari no ura no kage no watashi to
de aezu ni ima demo mada futari wa se o mukete

The sun sets, the light fades away
gathering up shattered wishes, none left behind
Unable to meet my shadow self behind the light
even now, we still have our backs to each other

離れられず まだ傍にいる
それが答え 変えられないの
光と影 二人で一人
揃うならば 苦しみも乗り越えられる

hanarerarezu mada soba ni iru
sore ga kotae kaerarenai no
hikari to kage futari de hitori
sorou naraba kurushimi mo nori koerareru

Remaining unable to separate, still close together
That’s the answer, it can’t be changed
Light and shadow, together we’re one
When both present, we can even overcome grief

貴方は一人だけ 誰にも変わることない
想いは一つだけ 叶うならばそれでいい
貴方はそこにいる それが事実変わらない
願いと想いなら 必ずひとつになる

anata wa hitori dake dare ni mo kawaru koto nai
omoi wa hitotsu dake kanau naraba sore de ii
anata wa soko ni iru sore ga jijitsu kawaranai
negai to omoi nara kanarazu hitotsu ni naru

You’re only one person, there’s no becoming anyone else
You only have one feeling, if it gets fulfilled, I’m fine with that
You’re right there, that’s a fact, it won’t change
When it comes to our feelings and wishes, they will certainly become one

光あれば 私もそこに
貴方から離れずいる いまでも いつでも
光の影の 想いと願い
出会えずにいまでもまだ 二人は背を向ける

hikari areba watashi mo soko ni
anata kara hanarezu ni iru ima demo itsu demo
hikari no kage no omoi to negai de aezu ni
ima demo mada futari wa se o mukeru

As long as there’s light, I’m also there
existing unseparated from you, now and forever on
Unable to see the wishes and feelings of light’s shadow
even now, we still have our backs to each other

離れられず まだ出会えずに
砕け散る願い事を 残さず集めて
見えなくなる 貴方の影は
想い続け 光あるうち
光と影 二人で一人
揃うならば 悲しみは安らぎになる

hanarerarezu mada de aezu ni
kudake chiru negaigoto o nokosazu atsumete
mienaku naru anata no kage wa
omoi tsudzuke hikari aru uchi
hikari to kage futari de hitori
sorou naraba kanashimi wa yasuragi ni naru

Unable to separate, still without being able to meet
gathering up shattered wishes, none left behind
Your shadow, becoming invisible,
will continue to feel, as long as there’s light

Light and shadow, together we’re one
When both present, sorrow will become peaceful

私は一人だけ 他の誰にもなれない
想いは一つだけ 叶うならばそれでいい
私はここにいる 気づくことが出来るなら
貴方と私なら ひとつの答えになる

watashi wa hitori dake hoka no dare ni mo narenai
omoi wa hitotsu dake kanau naraba sore de ii
watashi wa koko ni iru kidzuku koto ga dekiru nara
anata to watashi nara hitotsu no kotae ni naru

I’m only one person, I can’t become anybody else
I only have one feeling, if it gets fulfilled, I’m fine with that
I am right here, if you can notice that,
when it comes to you and I, the answer will become just one

藍ノ光 | Indigo Light

Ah, this one is from my Bhavaagra phase years ago. I originally found the song uploaded by one of those annoying “(Song) Arrange #54” type of uploaders so I never knew the title or album and only found all that and the lyrics recently.

★ Title: 藍ノ光
☆ Album: 桜華結界 -Perfect Cherry Blossom-
★ Album Artist: =NeutraL=
☆ Arrangement: nazz-can
★ Vocals and lyrics: Souwer
☆ Original Title: Bhavaagra As SeenThrough a Child’s Mind (幼心地の有頂天)


流れる刻は静かに 揺蕩うは心のみ
信じる者のない いつかの御伽噺

nagareru toki wa shizuka ni tayutau wa kokoro nomi
shinjiru mono no nai itsu ka no otogibanashi

Time flows on silently, only my heart drifts about
It’s a fairy tail of another time with no believers

目覚めた小さき鳥は 囀りさえ知らずに
答えを探して 故郷に背を向ける

sameta chiisaki tori wa saezuri sae shirazu ni
kotae o sagashite furusato ni se o mukeru

Small birds who have awoken, without even knowing how to chirp
turn their backs on their home in search of an answer

嵐に吹かれる夜は はばたく羽根を休め
雨 子守唄に 彼の地へと夢を見る

arashi ni fukareru yoru wa habataku hane o yasume
ame komoriuta ni ka no chi e to yume o miru

Resting their flapping wings on nights when blown by storms
to the rain’s lullaby, they dream, heading towards that place

果てない藍を纏うは この身を射抜く光
終わりはいらない あの空へ届くまで

hate nai ai o matou wa kono mi o inuku hikari
owari wa iranai ano sora e todoku made

Clad in an endless indigo is the light piercing my body
I don’t need an ending, until I reach that far sky

LIGHTS in the BABEL

No, “haert” is not a typo. That is how it is written in the booklet.
We try to be as close to the original as possible here at Amen Translations.
Anyway, with a remix of this song showing up in the new “Little Wheel Euclase” album, I figured I’d post this.

I’ve been looking for another chances
There is no place for understand each other

How do you remember such an old surrender?
Then, I just realized “I can’t be your help…”

Everything I just lost in the babel
Everything you can find in the babel
Everything A-B-C to the babel
Everyone… Everyday… losing something

Why not grab it?
I can see the Light on you
You can see the Right on me

Hey…I said don’t let it go, oh…
Jump up the imagination
What you waiting for?

But, I can’t stop my heart still beatin’
What I still waitin’ for?
Even if the night is goin’ on…
I can’t stop my haert still wishin’
But, there is no reason

Everything is gonna be …down!

I’ve been waiting for another call
There is no place for understand each other

How do I remember? Memory breaker
Then, I just realized “You can’t be my help…”

Everything you just lost in the babel
Everything I can find in the babel
Everything A-B-C to the babel
Everyone… Everyday… wishing something

Why not grab it?
I can see the Light on you
You can see the Right on me

Hey…I said don’t let it go, oh…
Jump up the imagination
What you waiting for?

But, I can’t stop my heart still beatin’
What I still waitin’ for?
Even if the night is goin’ on…
I can’t stop my haert still wishin’
But, there is no reason

Everything is gonna be …down!

Paradise in the crowd, can you hear me now?
Give me the sign before I forget you
Give me shine to find everything in the babel
everything in your mind
I know… I can’t do it. Even so…

Why not grab it?
I can see the Light on you
You can see the Right on me

Hey…I said don’t let it go, oh…
Jump up the imagination
What you waiting for?

But, I can’t stop my heart still beatin’
What I still waitin’ for?
Even if the night is goin’ on…
I can’t stop my haert still wishin’
But, there is no reason

Everything is gonna be …down!
