Exstricate

What’s with Mei’s songs lately? Her lyrics are getting shorter and shorter. It’s a bit of a shame, given her great voice.

絶望も悲しみも 私には関係ない
自分が良ければいい
淡くても 紅くても 色づくものはないから
静寂はまだ続く 
時の中で

zetsubou mo kanashimi mo watashi ni wa kankei nai
jibun ga yokereba ii
awakutemo akakutemo irodzuku mono wa nai kara
seijaku wa mada tsudzuku
toki no naka de

Despair and sorrow, I have nothing to do with either
It’s fine if I’m acceptable
Thought pale, though red, there’s nothing changing colours
so the silence will still continue
in the midst of time

見えてない 自分だけ 周りのことは見えない
自分が分からなくて
常識も 非常識 私だけが正しいと
暗闇はまだ続く 
胸の中で

mietenai jibun dake mawari no koto wa mienai
jibun ga wakaranakute
joushiki mo hijoushiki watashi dake ga tadashii to
kurayami wa mada tsudzuku
mune no naka de

I can’t see, just myself, and nothing else
I don’t understand myself
Common sense and the lack thereof, if I’m the only one correct
the darkness will still continue
within my heart

時の中で

toki no naka de

In the midst of time

recollection

Requested by Niniva chan. Sorry for the wait! orz
I have a bit of a history of having trouble understanding Syrufit lyrics. Trying to piece them together can still be a pain sometimes.
I wish all lyrics read as properly as books do.

空から舞い落ちて  降り積もる点は
いつか線を結び一面  繋ぐ銀の世界
止む事を知らない  砂時計の音
ずっと一緒にいられるよって拙い嘘

sora kara mai ochite furi tsumoru ten wa
itsu ka sen o musubi ichimen tsunagu gin no sekai
yamu koto o shiranai sunadokei no oto
zutto isshoni irareru yo tte tsutanai uso

The dots dancing down from the sky and piling up
will someday form a line, a surface, joining a silver world
The sound of the hourglass doesn’t know what it means to stop
That we can always be together was a crude lie

月夜  照らす雪道  瞬く星も
今だけの  幸せ  シアワセ
綺麗  呟く笑顔  寄り添う重さ
今だけの  幸せ  シアワセ

tsukiyo terasu yukimichi matataku hoshi mo
ima dake no shiawase shiawase
kirei tsubuyaku egao yorisou omosa
ima dake no shiawase shiawase

The moonlit night, the glowing snowy path, and the twinkling stars
are, for now, my happiness, my happiness
The weight of getting close to your smiling face murmuring pretty
is, for now, my happiness, happiness

涙  零れる音も  渇いた痕も
その先を  知らない  シラナイ
甘く  香る事無く  佇む草木
その先を  知らない  シラナイ

namida koboreru oto mo kawaita ato mo
sono saki o shiranai shiranai
amaku kaoru koto naku tatazumu kusaki
sono saki o shiranai shiranai

The sound of tears dripping, and parched scars, as well as
what’s beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know
The plants stop moving, without any sweet smells
What’s beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know

宙に手を  そう伸ばしても  ただ
空を切る  ような空しさだけ
遠過ぎて  もう遠過ぎて  いつも
見詰めても  白く漂うだけ
掴んでも  そう掴んでも  ただ
残るのは  少しの雪の結晶(ほし)
手の中で  手の中で
そのままで  オモイ  カケラ

sora ni te o sou nobashitemo tada
kuu o kiru youna munashisa dake
toosugite mou toosugite itsu mo
mi tsumetemo shiroku tadayou dake
tsukandemo sou tsukandemo tada
nokoru no wa sukoshi no yuki no hoshi
te no naka de te no naka de
sono mama de omoi kakera

Even if I, yes, reach to the sky, there’s just
an emptiness that could cut the air
It’s too far, it’s already too far, and even
if I always stare, it just drifts looking white
Even if I grasp, yes, even if I grasp, all that
remains is just a few snow crystal stars
In my hands, in my hands
as they are, fragments of my feelings

今も降り続ける  砂時計の音
踏み固めた足跡もまた  ふわり風で消える
境目の見えない  空と地平線
眩しく映るのは  僅かな時間のせい

ima mo furi tsudzukeru sunadokei no oto
fumi katameta ashioto mo mata fuwari kaze de kieru
sakaime no mienai sora to chiheisen
mabushiku utsuru no wa wazuka na jikan no sei

The sound of the hourglass still now continues to pile up
The footprints I made again gently disappear in the wind
The border between the sky and horizon, I can’t see
What brightly reflects is the fault of the little time

手と手繋いだ距離は二人の秘密
今だけの  幸せ  シアワセ

te to te tsunaida kyori wa futari no himitsu
ima dake no shiawase shiawase

The distance between our joined hands is our secret
It’s, for now, my happiness, my happiness

風と零れる時間泣き声響く
その先を  知らない  シラナイ

kaze to koboreru jikan naki koe hibiku
sono saki o shiranai shiranai

In the wind and the escaping time, my cry echoes
What’s beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know

宙に手を  そう伸ばしても  ただ
空を切る  ような空しさだけ
遠過ぎて  もう遠過ぎて  いつも
見詰めても  白く漂うだけ
掴んでも  そう掴んでも  ただ
残るのは  少しの雪の結晶(ほし)
手の中で  手の中で
そのままで  オモイ  カケラ

sora ni te o sou nobashitemo tada

tsukandemo sou tsukandemo tada
nokoru no wa sukoshi no yuki no hoshi
te no naka de te no naka de
sono mama de omoi kakera

Even if I, yes, reach to the sky, there’s just
an emptiness that could cut the air
It’s too far, it’s already too far, and even
if I always stare, it just drifts looking white
Even if I grasp, yes, even if I grasp, all that
remains is just a few snow crystal stars
In my hands, in my hands

Deeper Than Your Eyes, Farther Than Platinum Moon

Requested by Eiki. Camellia lyrics usually seem like a pain, so I tend to skip them, but they were pretty nice this time, I think.

日付を一つ超えて 薄く靄が滲んだ夜の
静けさに触れられて 君も動きを止めるのだろう
月の輪 見詰めて
(温度をなくして)

hidzuke o hitotsu koete usuku moya ga nijinda yoru no
shizukesa ni furerarete kimi mo ugoki o tomeru no darou
tsuki no wa mitsumete
(ondo o nakushite)

Passing a single date, being touched by the stillness
of the night thinly blotted with mist, you’ll also stop moving won’t you
Gazing at the the circular moon
(Losing temperature)

まだ深まる夜の海に 白金の球が浮かぶ
まだ解けない目線 絡まったまま 星を探しだす

mada fukamaru yoru no umi ni hakkin no kyuu ga ukabu
mada hodokenai mesen karamatta mama hoshi o sagashi dasu

In the yet deepening sea of night, the platinum sphere floats
My gaze, yet unbroken, remaining tied, searches for stars

明日の朝が眠る 朱色の空は遥か遠い
藍が幽かに爆ぜて 音もなくあたりを満たしていく
木の影が遮って 斑雲の群が覆っても
怖いほどの閑寂に 君も光を漏らすのだろう
月の輪 透かして

ashita no asa ga nemuru shu iro no sora wa haruka tooi
ai ga kasuka ni hazete oto mo naku atari o mitashite iku
ki no kage ga saegitte madara kumo no mura ga oottemo
kowai hodo no kanjaku ni kimi mo hikari o morasu no darou
tsuki no wa sukashite

Tomorrow’s morning sleeps, the vermillion sky stretches long and far
Filling the vicinity without a sound, indigo faintly bursts and spreads
Even if the trees’ shadows obstruct and groups of speckled clouds conceal,
in the scarily tranquil stillness, you’ll also let out your light, won’t you
The circular moon shines through

日付を一つ超えて 薄く靄が滲んだ夜の
静けさに触れられて 君も動きを止めるのだろう
月の輪 見詰めて

hidzuke o hitotsu koete usuku moya ga nijinda yoru no
shizukesa ni furerarete kimi mo ugoki o tomeru no darou
tsuki no wa mitsumete
(ondo o nakushite)

Passing a single date, being touched by the stillness
of the night thinly blotted with mist, you’ll also stop moving won’t you
Gazing at the the circular moon
(Losing temperature)

まだ深まる夜の海に 白金の球が浮かぶ
まだ解けない目線 絡まったまま 星を探しだす

mada fukamaru yoru no umi ni hakkin no kyuu ga ukabu
mada hodokenai mesen karamatta mama hoshi o sagashi dasu

In the yet deepening sea of night, the platinum sphere floats
My gaze, yet unbroken, remaining tied, searches for stars

露がその肌伝う 落ちて消えればまた滴る
どれだけこの夜明けが 近づいても逃げてしまいたい
振り撒かれた光る砂 一つずつ辿って繋いで
道のない夜空では 君も独りじゃ寂しいだろう

tsuyu ga sono hada tsutau ochite kiereba mata shitataru
dore dake kono yoake ga chikadzuitemo nigete shimaitai
furi makareta hikaru suna hitotsu zutsu tadotte tsunaide
michi no nai yozora de wa kimi mo hitori ja samishii darou

The dew follows down your skin, another trickling if it falls and disappears
No matter how close the dawn comes, I just want to run away for good
Following the scattered sparkling sand, I connect them one by one
In the roadless night sky, I’ll bet it’s lonely being by yourself

月の輪 追いかけ 瞳に 映して

tsuki no wa oi kake hitomi ni utsushite

Chasing after the circular moon, casting into our eyes

Temper

To quote Nate A.M. on his music review site, “did Minoshima genuinely think ‘DROP DAT FUCKIN’ KAZOO BRUH’ was a good stylistic choice?” I’m not a fan of it, parody or not, but the lyrics were short enough that I thought I might as well translate them. Not planning on doing “Regret” or the star platinum moon one though.

追いつけないままに 時が刻んで
私一人だけが 見えないようで
追いつけずにいるの 今もまだ
何もできないままいる

oi tsukenai mama ni toki ga kizande
watashi hitori dake ga mienai you de
oi tsukezu ni iru no ima mo mada
nani mo dekinai mama iru

Time ticks on as I’m unable to keep up
It feels as if I’m invisible, and me alone
I’m here unable to catch up, even now, still
Here unable to do anything

報いることさえ儚い夢なんだから
夢の中でしか 貴方を追い越せないけど
いつか越えてみせる そう言い聞かせて
願いは今でも 叶わないままで

mukuiru koto sae hakanai yume nan dakara
yume no naka de shika anata o oi kosenai kedo
itsu ka koete miseru sou ii kikasete
negai wa ima demo kanawanai mama de

Rewards are just faint dreams after all
Only in my dreams can I surpass you
but “one day, I’ll show you,” so I say, warning you
as my wish still remains unfulfilled even now

追いこせないままじゃ なにも変わらず
私のことなんか 誰も見てない
勇気すらないのよ この私
手を伸ばしもがいたまま

oi kosenai mama ja nani mo kawarazu
watashi no koto nanka dare mo mitenai
yuuki sura nai no yo kono watashi
te o nobashi mogaita mama

Nothing will change if I never pass you
Nobody is paying any attention to me
I don’t even have the courage needed,
as I remained struggling, reaching out my hand

貴方の背中も まだ見えていないから
夢の中でしか 強気に物も言えなくて
いつか越えてみたい そう思いながら
私は今でも 変わらないままで

anata no senaka mo mada mieteinai kara
yume no naka de shika tsuyoki ni mono mo ienakute
itsu ka koete mitai sou omoinagara
watashi wa ima demo kawaranai mama de

I still can’t even see your back yet, so
I can only say things with confidence in my dreams
“Someday I want to try going beyond,” so I thought
while I still remain my same old self without a change
