It’s funny, there are two types of songs: Ones that are easy to translate, and ones that simply aren’t. This would fall under the former, it’s a surprise how fast I could get it done.

tsukai furusareteta kotoba o hirotte
kono kimochi ni ima namae o tsuketai

I’ve become worn out, I gather up words
To this feeling now, I want to give a name

願うだけでは駄目　祈るだけでも駄目
信じるだけでは　もう赦せない

negau dake de wa dame inoru dake de mo dame
shinjiru dake de wa mou yurusenai

It’s no good just to wish, it’s no good to pray either
Just having faith alone can’t be allowed anymore

僕の　この手では　何一つ　つかめないままなら
何を　抱きしめて　眠りにつけばいいんだろう

boku no kono te de wa nani hitotsu tsukamenai mama nara
nani o daki shimete nemuri ni tsukeba ii n darou

With these hands of mine, if every single thing remains out of reach
what will I embrace close? I should just go to sleep shouldn’t I?

全ては終わる　もう　おやすみなさい
また会う日まで　さあ　おやすみなさい
いくつも　時を超えて
映す未来の希望への歌が　聴こえるまで

subete wa owaru mou oyasuminasai
mata au hi made saa oyasuminasai
ikutsu mo toki o koete
utsusu mirai no kibou e no uta ga kikoeru made

Everything comes to an end, it’s good night already
Until the day we meet again, it’s good night see
I’ll cross over countless times
until I can listen to the song towards hope for this projecting future

もし　このまま　目が　覚めないままなら
何に祈ればいい　夢の中で

moshi kono mama me ga samenai mama nara
nani ni inoreba ii yume no naka de

If my eyes were to remain shut like this, unable to open,
what should I pray to? Inside this dream

僕の　この手では　何もかも　壊してしまうなら
何を　思い出し　眠りにつけばいいんだろう

boku no kono te de wa nani mo kamo kowashite shimau nara
nani o omoi dashi nemuri ni tsukeba ii n darou

With these hands of mine, if I just utterly destroy anything and everything
what will I remember? I should just go to sleep shouldn’t I?

信じていいよ　もう　おやすみなさい
悲しまないで　さあ　おやすみなさい
長い長い　夜を超えて
優しく”おはよう”と告げる　声が　聴こえるまで

shinjite ii yo mou oyasuminasai
kanashimanai de saa oyasuminasai
nagai nagai yoru o koete
yasashiku “ohayou” to tsugeru koe ga kikoeru made

It’s alright to believe, it’s good night already
Don’t grieve for me, it’s good night see
I’ll pass, I’ll pass, through these long nights
until I can listen to a voice kindly telling me “good morning”

全ては終わる　もう　おやすみなさい
また会う日まで　さあ　おやすみなさい
いくつも　時を超えて
映す未来の希望への歌が　聴こえるまで

subete wa owaru mou oyasuminasai
mata au hi made saa oyasuminasai
ikutsu mo toki o koete
utsusu mirai no kibou e no uta ga kikoeru made

Everything comes to an end, it’s good night already
Until the day we meet again, it’s good night see
I’ll cross over countless time
until I can listen to the song towards hope for this projecting future

Phew, been caught up on doing a lot of study recently. Now it’s time to catch up on translating. To begin with, I have plans to cover some more from this album, and next up, more Dancing Dollz maybe.

夕暮れ時　探していた　一番星
寄り添う月　引き合う星　君のそばに

yuugure doki sagashiteita ichiban boshi
yori sou tsuki hikik au hoshi kimi no soba ni

During evening, I had searched for the first star to appear
The moon snuggles up and the stars pull close, close to you

明けない夜があったならいいのにね
呟く君の目に光る紅い星

akenai yoru ga atta nara ii noni ne
tsubuyaku kimi no me ni hikaru akai hoshi

If the night would never end that’d be nice wouldn’t it
There are scarlet stars shining in your eyes as you murmur

さあ　手を　伸ばしてみたら
さあ　目を　開いてみたら
今でも　手が届くはず　心に　手が届くはず

saa te o nobashitemitara
saa me o hiraitemitara
ima demo te ga todoku hazu kokoro ni te ga todoku hazu

Come on, if I just try and reach out my hand
Come on, if I just try and open up my eyes
Even now, I should be able to reach, to your heart, I should be able to reach

夕暮れ時　探していた　一番星
思い出せば　この心は　揺れるばかり

yuugure doki sagashiteita ichiban boshi
omoi daseba kono kokoro wa yureru bakari

During evening, I had searched for the first star to appear
If you recall, this heart does nothing but shake

夜明け前を　照らす青に　染まる世界
空と君を　分ける意味を　失う世界
さあ　手を　伸ばしてみたら
さあ　目を　開いてみたら

yoake mae o terasu ao ni somaru sekai
sora to kimi o wakeru imi o ushinau sekai
saa te o nobashitemitara
saa me o hiraitemitara

It’s a world dyed in a blue which shines before dawn
It’s a world that loses the meanings which divide you and the sky
Come on, if I just try and reach out my hand
Come on, if I just try and open up my eyes

無くしたもの　探しに行けるよ

nakushita mono sagashi ni ikeru yo

I should be able to go and search for what was lost

君が奏でてた　歌を探してた
忘れないように　何度も何度も手を振って

kimi ga kanadeteta uta o sagashiteta
wasurenai you ni nando mo nando mo te o futte

I had searched for the song that you had played
So that I’ll never forget, over and over I wave my hand

僕はここにいて　君もここにいる
だけど知っていた　この瞬間　もう二度とない事

boku wa koko ni ite kimi mo koko ni iru
dakedo shitteita kono shunkan mou nido to nai koto

I’m right here, you’re right here as well
However I had come to know, this moment, that things will never be again

雲一つない　夜空を見て　微笑んでる
君が君で　ある理由を　失う世界
今でも手が届くはず　心に　手が届くはず
大事なもの　探しに行こうよ

kumo hitotsu nai yozora o mite hohoenderu
kimi ga kimi de aru riyuu o ushinau sekai
ima demo te ga todoku hazu kokoro ni te ga todoku hazu
daiji na mono sagashi ni ikou yo

Seeing the cloudless night and smiling
It’s a world which loses the reason that you’re you
Even now, I should be able to reach, your heart, I should be able to reach
Lets go and search for important things

優しさの意味を　誰より知っていた
傷つける事を　何度も何度も諦めて

yasashisa no imi o dare yori shitteita
kizutsukeru koto o nando mo nando mo akiramete

You had known more than anyone else the meaning of kindness
Over and over I give up on hurting

僕はここにいて　君もここにいる
だけど分かってた　この声は　もう届かない事

boku wa koko ni ite kimi mo koko ni iru
dakedo wakatteita kono koe wa mou todokanai koto

I’m right here, you’re right here as well
However I had understood, that this voice would never reach anymore

夕暮れ時　探していた　一番星
寄り添う月　引き合う星　君のそばに

yuugure doki sagashiteita ichiban boshi
yori sou tsuki hikik au hoshi kimi no soba ni

During evening, I had searched for the first star to appear
The moon draws close, the stars pull together, to your side

君が奏でてた　歌を探してた
忘れないように　何度も何度も手を振って

kimi ga kanadeteta uta o sagashiteta
wasurenai you ni nando mo nando mo te o futte

I had searched for the song that you had played
So that I’ll never forget, over and over I wave my hand

僕はここにいて　君もここにいる
だけど知っていた　この瞬間　もう二度とない事

boku wa koko ni ite kimi mo koko ni iru
dakedo shitteita kono shunkan mou nido to nai koto

I’m right here, you’re right here as well
However I had come to know, this moment, that things will never be again
