Beyond Time and Space

“The world I see, isn’t a dream world” seems to have real significance in this song, that’s for sure. Look at how the speaker focuses on the importance of her dreaming, but then think, if the world you’re in isn’t a world of dreams, what good will dreaming do?

君の面影 探して
夢を越えてゆく 知らないまま
今を置き去りにしてゆく
一人 世界を旅して

kimi no omokage sagashite
yume o koete yuku shiranai mama
ima o oki zari ni shite yuku
hitori sekai o tabi shite

I search for traces of you
and cross over dreams, remaining clueless
Leaving behind the present and moving on
all alone, I travel the world

逢いたくても 逢えない
諦めればいいよ
でもどうして泣いてるの? 今も

aitakutemo aenai
akirameba ii yo
demo doushite naiteru no? ima mo

Though I want to see you, I can’t do so
I should just give up
But why do the tears keep coming? Even now

こんなに夢を見ても逢えない
手を伸ばせば消えた
見てる世界 嘘吐きな世界
知らないフリ 何時でも
目の前には一人
見える世界 夢じゃない世界

konna ni yume o mitemo aenai
te o nobaseba kieta
miteru sekai usotsuki na sekai
shiranai furi itsu demo
me no mae ni wa hitori
mieru sekai yume janai sekai

Even dreaming this much, I can’t see you
If I reach out for you, you’ll be gone
The world I see – a world that lies
Acting clueless, at all times
Before my eyes is a single person
The world I see, isn’t a dream world

誰かの為の優しさ
時を越えてゆく信じてるよ
追いかけていた 何時かの二人の思い出
消えてしまったのは ねぇ、何故なの?

dare ka no tame no yasashisa
toki o koete yuku shinjiteru yo
oi kaketeita itsu ka no futari no omoide
kiete shimatta no wa nee, naze nano?

Kindness for the sake of someone
transcending over time, I have faith
I had pursued memories of us someday being together
The thing that ended up disappearing, hey, why’d it do so?

焦がれてても 逢えない
泣いてばかりいたの
夢の夢を夢見ても ダメで…

kogaretetemo aenai
naite bakari ita no
yume no yume o yume mitemo dame de…

Though I yearn for you, I can’t see you
I was here only crying
Even though I dream a dream of dreams, it’s no good…

こんなに夢を見ても逢えない
手を伸ばせば消えた
見てる世界 嘘吐きな世界
知らないフリ 何時でも
目の前には一人
見える世界 夢じゃない世界

konna ni yume o mitemo aenai
te o nobaseba kieta
miteru sekai usotsuki na sekai
shiranai furi itsu demo
me no mae ni wa hitori
mieru sekai yume janai sekai

Even dreaming this much, I can’t see you
If I reach out for you, you’ll be gone
The world I see – a world that lies
Acting clueless, at all times
Before my eyes is a single person
The world I see, isn’t a dream world

 

Truth

This song stood out the most in this album, that background melody going on really just hooked me. A song about self-dependance.

迷った時は
いつも貴方が傍で
ただ何も言わずに
見守っていてくれた so

mayotta toki wa
itsu mo anata ga soba de
tada nani mo iwazu ni
mi mamotteite kureta so

Moments of being lost
are always when you’re close by
Without saying a single word
you’ve just watched over me, so

understand 結局は
自分で答え出さなくちゃ
納得できない

understand kekkyoku wa
jibun de kotae dasanakucha
nattoku dekinai

understand that in the end
if I don’t get answers for myself
I won’t find understanding

ねぇ What’s right in fact?
何が悪くて何が良いか
私だけ解ればいい

nee What’s right in fact?
nani ga warukute nani ga ii ka
watashi dake wakareba ii

Hey, what’s right in fact?
What is wrong and what is right?
All you need to do is comprehend me

もう I can’t but move!
後悔なんてしたくないの
明日へと駆け抜けたい
振り返らない

mou I can’t but move!
koukai nante shitakunai no
ashita e to kake nuketai
furi kaeranai

I can’t do anything but move anymore!
I don’t want to have any regrets
so I want to run towards tomorrow
without looking behind

他人に何か
言われても関係ない

tanin ni nani ka
iwaretemo kankei nai

Even if someone else were to
say something to me, I don’t care

It’s just そう
真実は自分の中に
信念は力になるわ

It’s just sou
shinjitsu wa jibun no naka ni
shinnen wa chikara ni naru wa

It’s just that
truth is inside of myself
Faith will become my power

ねぇ What’s right in fact?
常識なんて誰が決めた?
迷わずに自分信じて

nee What’s right in fact?
joushiki nante dare ga kimeta?
mayowazu ni jibun shinjite

Hey, what’s right in fact?
Who decided what’s common sense anyways?
Without hesitating I’ll believe in myself

もう I can’t but move!
やりたいこともやれないなら
意味がない
生きてるなら前に進もう

mou I can’t but move!
yaritai koto mo yarenai nara
imi ga nai
ikiteru nara mae ni susumou

I can’t do anything but move anymore!
If I can’t do what I want to do then
there’s just no point
As long as I’m living, I’ll try to advance forward

ねぇ What’s right in fact?
何が悪くて何が良いか
私だけ解ればいい

nee What’s right in fact?
nani ga warukute nani ga ii ka
watashi dake wakareba ii

Hey, what’s right in fact?
What is wrong and what is right?
All you need to do is comprehend me

もう I can’t but move!
後悔なんてしたくないの
明日へと駆け抜けたい
振り返らない

mou I can’t but move!
koukai nante shitakunai no
ashita e to kake nuketai

I can’t do anything but move anymore!
I don’t want to have any regrets
so I want to run towards tomorrow

九十九の世界 | tsukumo no sekai | Tsukumo World

It feels slightly clunky, but I think it turned out alright. More confidence with it than “bEAT GATHER” at least. The lyrics are pretty great and full of hype here, but “Maze” is still my favourite from the album I think.

Notes: SO apparently the kanji for the name Tsukumo is actually 九十九, while I had thought that it literally translated to mean Ninety-nine this whole time. Yup, that means this post had to go fixed right up a bunch.

ああ 暗黒の魔力で 熱き覚醒を
瞬間 奏でよ
契は血より強く
二人の夢を重ねた

aa yami no chikara de atsuki mezame o
ima kanadeyo
chikiri wa chi yori tsuyoku
futari no yume o kasaneta

Ah, with the magic of darkness, in a moment
play the feverous awakening
Fate is stronger than blood
Both of our dreams have overlapped together

ああ 永遠に等しき 時間の旋律を
刹那 奏でよ
光の弦を弾き
艶やかな音を重ねた 幾重も

aa towa ni hitoshiki toki no shirabe o
ima kanadeyo
hikari no tsuru o hajiki
adeyaka na ne o kasaneta ikue mo

Ah, the melody of time is forever similar,
for a moment play it now

Plucking the strings of light
a glorious sound overlapped, overtoned

そう 使役の理
運命を覆せ 今こそ

sou shieki no kotowari
sadame o kutsugaese ima koso

Yes, it’s the way of cause and effect
overthrow fate, now is the time

張り裂けるほどに
九十九の願望が甦る夜に
憧れの世界を 描く歌を 紡ぐ歌を
何時迄も 唄い続けて
二つの願望が宿る歌を
ただ 繰り返すだけさ

hari sakeru hodo ni
tsukumo no negai ga yomigaeru yoru ni
akogare no sekai o egaku uta o tsumugu uta o
itsu made mo utai tsudzukete
futatsu no negai ga yadoru uta o
tada kurikaesu dake sa

To the point of bursting open
during the night when the desires of the Tsukumo resurrect
Forever continue to sing the song that designs, that weaves
the world that we yearn for
We’ll only just repeat and repeat
the song that our wishes live in

ああ 透ける陰影に その眼凝らして
現在 奏でよ
祈祷を虚空に放ち
厳かな音を重ねた 幾度も

aa sukeru katachi ni sono me korashite
ima kanadeyo
inori o sora ni hanachi
ogosoka na ne o kasaneta ikudo mo

Ah, focus those eyes of yours at the transparent shadows
and now play the music
Firing off our wishes into the clear sky
a majestic sound overlapped, with frequency

そう 奇跡の矛先
生命を取り戻せ 今こそ

sou kiseki no hokosaki
inochi o tori modose ima koso

Yes, it’s a spearheard of miracles
take back and regain life, now is the time

駆り立てるほどに
九十九の野心が燃え上がる夜に
憧れの未来を 描く歌を 紡ぐ歌を
何処迄も 唄い続けて
二つの野心が宿る歌を
ただ 響かせるだけさ

kari tateru hodo ni
tsukumo no negai ga moe agaru yoru ni
akogare no mirai o egaku uta o tsumugu uta o
doko made mo utai tsudzukete
futatsu no negai ga yadoru uta o
tada hibikaseru dake sa

To the point of impelling
during the night when aspirations of the Tsukumo flare up
No matter where, continue to sing the song that designs, that weaves
the future that we yearn for
We’ll only just make it resound
the song our ambitions reside in
