Totally not a request. Haruka’s lyrics are real easy it seems. I appreciate clear lyrics like that. Good song too, I enjoyed Dominated Dancehall greatly, I just wish the final track, FIX, was a bit longer, it ends so suddenly, they could have done a lot with it I feel. Translating that makes me really anticipate Cloud 9 even more. If the lyrics are going to be as clear and easy as this, it’ll be boatloads of fun!

闇の中で　聞こえてくる
君はいつも　そこにいるね
鳴いていても　誰も来ない
いつも君は　なぜ独りきりなの？
闇の中に　いつもいると
呼んだような　感じしてた
君の歌は　歌にならず
悲しそうに　泣く様に見えた

yami no naka de kikoete kuru
kimi wa itsu mo soko ni iru ne
naiteitemo dare mo konai
itsu mo kimi wa naze hitori kiri nano?
yami no naka ni itsu mo iru to
yonda you na kanji shiteta
kimi no uta wa uta ni narazu
kanashisou ni naku you ni mieta

Within the darkness, I began to hear it
you’re always around there aren’t you?
Even though you sing, nobody comes
Why is it that you are always all alone?
I get the feeling that you called out to me
“I’m always here inside the darkness”
Your song didn’t sound like a song
It seemed as if you were sadly crying

なぜいるの？　なぜ鳴くの？　悲しいの？　切ないの？
その声は　いつまでも　続いてた　闇の中
呼んでるの？　なぜ鳴くの？　悲しいの？切ないの?
その声は　いつまでも　続いてた　闇の中

naze iru no? naze naku no? kanashii no? setsunai no?
sono koe wa itsu made mo tsudzuiteta yami no naka
yonderu no? naze naku no? kanashii no? setsunai no?
sono koe wa itsu made mo tsudzuiteta yami no naka

Why are you here? Why do you sing? Because you’re sad? Because you’re in pain?
That voice of yours has continued forever inside the darkness
Are you calling out? Why do you sing?  Because you’re sad? Because you’re in pain?
That voice of yours has continued forever inside the darkness

夜に鳴く鳥が　今夜もその場に
恋しくて今も　何度も何度でも
暗闇の中に　温もり求めて
ここに来てほしい　歌にもできないまま

yoru ni naku tori ga konya mo sono ba ni
koishikute ima mo nando mo nando demo
kurayami no naka ni nukumori motomete
koko ni kite hoshii uta ni mo dekinai mama

Tonight too the bird sings to the night in that place
yearning, even now, again and again, over and over
Seeking warmth within the pitch black
unable to say in her song “I want you to come here” either

闇の中は　独りきりの
君は声が　聞こえてくる
鳴いていても　誰も来ない
いつも君は　なぜ独りいるの?
闇の中で　なにを探す?
問えばすぐに　飛んで消える
君の歌は　歌にならず
悲しそうに　泣く様に見えた

yami no naka wa hitori kiri no
kimi wa koe ga kikoete kuru
naiteitemo dare mo konai
itsu mo kimi wa naze hitori iru no?
yami no naka de nani o sagasu?
toeba sugu ni tonde kieru
kimi no uta wa uta ni narazu
kanashisou ni naku you ni mieta

In the midst of the darkness, she’s all on her own
I began to hear the voice of yours
Even though you sing, nobody comes
Why is it that you are always all alone?
What do you search for within the darkness?
If I were to question you, you’d fly and disappear right away
Your song didn’t sound like a song
It seemed as if you were sadly crying

なぜいるの？　なぜ鳴くの？　悲しいの？　切ないの？
その声は　いつまでも　続いてた　闇の中
どうしたの？　なぜ君は　独りきり　鳴いてるの？
その声は　いつまでも　続いてた　闇の中

naze iru no? naze naku no? kanashii no? setsunai no?
sono koe wa itsu made mo tsudzuiteta yami no naka
doushita no? naze kimi wa hitori kiri naiteru no?
sono koe wa itsu made mo tsudzuiteta yami no naka

Why are you here? Why do you sing? Because you’re sad? Because you’re in pain?
That voice of yours has continued forever inside the darkness
What’s wrong? Why are you singing all by yourself?
That voice of yours has continued forever inside the darkness

夜に鳴く鳥は　何も見えなくて
悲しくて今も　何度も　何度でも
暗闇の中に　温もり求めて
ここに来てほしい　歌にもできなくて
夜に鳴く鳥は　群れることもなく
求めてたもの　なにかもわからずに
暗闇の中に　なにを求めてた？
夜に鳴く鳥が　ただ群れることもなく

yoru ni naku tori wa nani mo mienakute
kanashikute ima mo nando mo nando demo
kurayami no naka ni nukumori motomete
koko ni kite hoshii uta ni mo dekinakute
yoru ni naku tori wa mureru koto mo naku
motometeta mono ga nani ka mo wakarazu ni
kurayami no naka ni nani o motometeta?
yoru ni naku tori ga tada mureru koto mo naku

The bird singing to the night is unable to see anything
becoming sad, even now, again and again, over and over
Seeking warmth within the pitch black
unable to say in her song “I want you to come here” either
The bird singing to the night doesn’t even join a flock
What she’s been seeking she doesn’t even know herself
Within the pitch black what have you been seeking?
The bird singing to the night just won’t join a flock

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.

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.

暗い闇の中 そうよ I’m your believer
貴方忘れても ずっと Love Forever

Within the pitch black darkness, that’s right, I’m your believer
Even if you forget me, I’ll always love you forever
Believing while in the darkness, that’s right, I’m your believer
I want to dance someday, forever I’m your doll

埃被っても そうよ I’m your believer
貴方愛してる いつも doll for you
闇で信じてる ずっと I’m your believer
いつか踊れたら 夢が叶うかな？

hokori kabuttemo sou yo I’m your believer
anata aishiteru itsumo doll for you

itsuka odoretara yume ga kanau kana?

Even though I’m covered in dust, that’s right, I’m your believer
I’ll always love you forever, I’ll always be your doll
Believing while in the darkness, forever, I’m your believer
If I can dance someday then will my dreams come true?

Ah 闇の中で眠る 人形は 夢見続け待つの
悲しみは 積もる時の中で 独りきり いつか触れる日まで

Ah yami no naka de nemuru ningyou yume mi tsudzuke matsu no
kanashimi wa tsumoru toki no naka de hitorikiri itsuka fureru hi made

Ah, sleeping within the darkness, dolls continue to dream and wait
During a time when sorrow keeps on adding up, all alone, until the day they’re picked up

悲しみの中暗闇でも いつか踊れる日を夢見て
貴方を愛し信じ続け 触れ合うその時を待って

kanashimi no naka kurayami demo itsuka fureru hi o yume mite
anata o aishi shinji tsudzuke fure au sono toki o matte

Even surrounded by the dark cloud of sadness, I dream of the day I can dance
Continuing to love and believe in you, waiting for the time when you come to pick me up

貴方しかいないこの私 ずっと私のこと愛して！
寂しさ続く暗闇でも　いつか抱かれるのを待つわ

anata shika inai kono watashi zutto watashi no koto aishite!
sabishisa tsudzuku kurayami demo itsuka dakareru no o matsu wa

I’m not here for anyone else but you, forever and always love me!
Even in the darkness where loneliness persists, I wait to someday be embraced

闇で震えても そうよ I’m your believer
私忘れずに ずっと Love Forever
闇で信じてる そうよ I’m your believer
貴方信じてる ずっと I’m your dolls！

yami de furuetemo sou yo I’m your believer
watashi wasurezu ni zutto Love Forever
yami de shinjiteru sou yo I’m your believer
anata shinjiteru zutto I’m your dolls!

Even shaking in the darkness, that’s right, I’m your believer
Without forgetting me, always love me forever
Believing while in the darkness, that’s right, I’m your believer
Believing in you, forever I’m your doll!

Ah 夢の中で触れる 温もりは 今も光くれる
悲しみは 積もる愛の中で 独りきり いつか触れる日まで

Ah yume no naka de fureru nukumori wa ima mo hikaru kureru
kanashimi wa tsumoru ai no naka de hitorikiri itsuka fureru hi made

Ah, the warmth I feel in this dream even now provides me light
In the midst of love where sorrow accumulates, all alone, until the day I am picked up

悲しみの中暗闇でも いつか踊れる日を夢見て
貴方を愛し信じ続け 触れ合うその時を待って
貴方しかいないこの私 ずっと私のこと愛して！
寂しさ続く暗闇でも いつか抱かれるのを待つわ

Even surrounded by the dark cloud of sadness, I dream of the day I can dance
Continuing to love and believe in you, waiting for the time when you come to pick me up
I’m not here for anyone else but you, forever and always love me!
Even in the darkness where loneliness persists, I wait to someday be embraced

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 mune ni yatto fureta soko ni atatakasa wa nakatta
hiraku koto nai anata no me wo sotto itooshikute fureru
gouka no naka de kuchihatetemo zutto anata no soba irareru
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

I never would have guessed this song had prostitution related implications until it was pointed out. Made more mistakes in this my first time around than I’d like to admit, but hey, it’s all good practice!

願い事が叶う　嫌な売り言葉
口だけのものなら　今はいりません
貴方が望むもの　中身のない「愛」？
それに意味ないなら　お引取りください

negaigoto ga kanau iya na urikotoba
kuchi dake no mono nara ima wa irimasen
anata ga nozomu mono nakami no nai 「ai」?
sore ni imi nai nara ohiki tori kudasai

They say that wishes tend to come true, those are some provoking words
If it’s just word of mouth then that’s not really needed now
Is all that you desire just a “love” without substance?
On top of that, if it’s pointless, oh please, take your leave

願い事言えれば　願いは叶うの？
愛を語るならば　そこに愛はある？
言葉並べてても　中身空っぽよ
夢を語るならば　寝言だけにしてね

negaigoto iereba negai wa kanau no?
ai o kataru naraba soko ni ai wa aru?
kotoba narabetetemo nakami karappo yo
yume o kataru naraba negoto dake ni shite ne

If I can speak of my wish then will it possibly come true?
If I were to talk about love would love then be there?
Despite setting up my words their contents are still empty
If I talk about my dreams then all it sounds like is sleep talk

束縛され　時間もなく　動けなくて　苦しいまま
何も出来ず　奪われてる　私の今一つ自由
逃げられずに　繰り返した　同じ作業　進まぬ時
束縛から　逃げ出したい　現実から　逃げ出したい

sokubaku sare jikan mo naku ugokenakute kurushii mama
nani mo dekizu ubawareteru watashi no ima hitotsu jiyuu
nigerarezu ni kuri kaeshita onaji sagyou susumanu toki
sokubaku kara nige dashitai genjitsu kara nige dashitai

Restrained in these shackles, time is non-existent, unable to move, remaining in pain
Without being able to do anything, it has been snatched away, my now one and only precious freedom
Without being able to run, it has just repeated, this same operation in this unmoving time
Away from these shackles I want to run away, from this reality I want to escape

溢れ出す想いは　行く当てもなくて
掴んでた物さえ　嘘に見えてる
夢を追う者は　夢に食われる
欲しいのはただの「自由」
溢れ出す想いは　行く当てもなくて
掴んでた物さえ　嘘に見えている
今は自由さえ　買わないとダメ？
欲しいものは「自由」

afure dasu omoi wa yuku ate mo nakute
tsukandeta mono sae uso ni mieteru
yume o ou mono wa yume ni kuwareru
hoshii no wa tada no 「jiyuu」
afure dasu omoi wa yuku ate mo nakute
tsukandeta mono sae uso ni mieteiru
ima wa jiyuu sae kawanai to dame?
hoshii mono wa 「jiyuu」

These overflowing feelings are flooding out aimlessly
The things I had caught hold of are all appearing to be lies
People who live for their dreams just get eaten up by them
All that I want is simply just “freedom”
These overflowing feelings are flooding out aimlessly
The things I had caught hold of are all appearing to be lies
Right now, I just need freedom, is it something I must buy?
What I want is “freedom”

幸せ手に入れる　無駄な売り言葉
口だけのものなら　全ていりません
私が望むもの　中身ある言葉
それに意味ないなら　お引取りください

shiawase te ni ireru muda na urikotoba
kuchi dake no mono nara subete irimasen
watashi ga nozomu mono nakami aru kotoba
sore ni imi nai nara ohiki tori kudasai

“You can obtain happiness” just useless, rousing words
If it’s just word of mouth then it’s completely unneeded
The kind of thing that I desire are words with substance
On top of that, if it’s just pointless, oh please, take your leave

願い事唱えて　そのまま寝てれば？
人を愛すのなら　そこに愛はある？
言葉並べてても　中身空っぽね
夢を語るならば　寝言だけにしてね

negaigoto tonaete sono mama netereba?
hito o aisu no nara soko ni ai wa aru?
kotoba narabetetemo nakami karappo ne
yume o kataru naraba negoto dake ni shite ne

If I pray up my wish then what will happen when I wake up?
If I were to love people, would love then exist there?
Despite setting up my words their contents are still empty
If I talk about my dreams then all it sounds like is sleep talk

束縛さえ　抵抗せず　変わらなくて　流れるまま
同じことを　繰り返して　ひとつ消えた　私自身
逃げ出せずに従うだけ　同じ作業同じ時間
現実から　抜け出したい　この場所から抜け出したい

sokubaku sae teikou sezu kawaranakute nagareru mama
onaji koto o kuri kaeshite hitotsu kieta watashi jishin
nige dasezu ni shitagau dake onaji sagyou onaji jikan
genjitsu kara nuke dashitai kono basho kara nuke dashitai

Restrained in these shackles without resistance. forever unchanging, remaining flowing
The same thing as before, repeating it again. one thing has vanished, me, myself, and I
Without being able to run I can only obey. this same operation in this same time
Away from reality I want to slip away. from this place I want to break away

溢れ出す想いは　行く先も見えず
掴んでた物なら　全て嘘だよ
夢を追うものは　夢に躓く
欲しいのがただの「自由」
溢れ出す涙は　いずれは枯れ果て
掴んでた物なら　ここにはないのよ
お金がないなら　期限は切れた
消えたものは「自由」

afuredasu omoi wa yuku saki mo miezu
tsukandeta mono nara subete uso da yo
yume o ou mono wa yume ni tsumadzuku
hoshii no ga tada no 「jiyuu」
afure dasu namida wa izure wa kare hate
tsukandeta mono nara koko ni wa nai no yo
okane ga nai nara kigen wa kireta
kieta mono wa 「jiyuu」

These overflowing feelings, where they’re going is yet unseen
The things I had caught hold of are all completely lies
People who live for their dreams just trip up all over them
All that I want is simply that “freedom”
These overflowing tears will eventually come to dry up
The things I had caught of are nowhere to be found here
If you have run out of money then that’s all, your time is up
What has disappeared is “freedom”
