planet breaker

This has to be about getting revenge on Jouga. While translating this, I had a picture in my head of an advertisement for Junko and Hecatia featuring Koro-sensei saying “Lunarians hate him!” “One simple trick to destroy the moon.”

長い夢の果てに　命の花が咲く
満たす涙のように
溢れる不浄の罠

nagai yume no hate ni inochi no hana ga saku
mitasu namida no you ni
afureru fujou no wana

At the edge of a long dream, the flowers of life blossom
Overflowing like fulfilling tears
are impure traps

何もかも　壊して
自分らしく　いられるなら
この身体　焼かれても　怖くない

nani mo kamo kowashite
jibun rashiku irareru nara
kono karada yakaretemo kowakunai

If I can be myself
and destroy everything,
I’m not scared even if my body’s burned

心までも　美しく　跡形なく　壊せたら
君が生きた　証ごと
鮮やかに　砕いて　忘れて　あげるから

kokoro made mo utsukushiku atokata naku kowasetara
kimi ga ikita akashi goto
azayaka ni kudaite wasurete ageru kara

If I can destroy you without a trace beautifully all the way to the heart,
together with the proof that you were alive
I’ll vibrantly break and then forget about you

長い夢の終わり　月は曖昧なまま
照らされる事に
慣れすぎた不浄の罪

nagai yume no owari tsuki wa aimai na mama
terasareru koto ni
nare sugita fujou no tsumi

At the end of a long dream, the moon remains vague
The impure sin
of becoming too used to being shined on

曖昧に　壊して
ありのままじゃ　意味がないね
壊すなら　君と　その　全てを

aimai ni kowashite
ari no mama ja imi ga nai ne
kowasu nara kimi to sono subete o

There’s no meaning
in vaguely destroying it as it is
If I’m to destroy, I’ll destroy you and your everything

涙が今　美しく　砕け散って　光るけど
君が望む　世界ごと
残酷に　砕いて　消して　あげるから

namida ga imi utsukushiku kudake chitte hikaru kedo
kimi ga nozomu sekai goto
zankoku ni kudaite keshite ageru kara

Though the tears now beautifully shatter and shine,
together with the world you desire
I’ll cruelly break you and then erase you

その命は　舞い上がり　花火のように　華やいで
僕が望む　世界には
君がいない　僕もいない　誰もいない　なら
砕いて　消して　しまえばいい

sono inochi wa mai agari hanabi no you ni hanayaide
boku ga nozomu sekai ni wa
kimi ga inai boku mo inai dare mo inai nara
kudaite keshite shimaeba ii

Your life soars high, brilliant like fireworks
In the world I desire
you’re not there, nor am I, nor is anyone there,
in which case I just have to break and erase everything

million lights, wondering star

Happy New Year. Normally, I start an event with Alstroemeria albums, but I’m loving the Zytokine one more than usual this time.

★ Title: million lights, wondering star
☆ Album: BEAUTIFUL KILLER
★ Album Artist: ZYTOKINE
☆ Vocals: aki

☆ Original Title: The Sea Where the Home Planet is Reflected (故郷の星が映る海 )
★ Website: http://zytokine-web.com/

この手を　零れ落ちる　寂しさ　涙の音
響いて　また　星の海へと　沈むから

kono te o kobore ochiru samishisa namida no oto
hibiite mata hoshi no umi e to shizumu kara

The loneliness spilling through my hands and the sound of tears resonate
I’ll sink into the sea of stars again after all

その　光を　ずっと　見ていたかった

sono hikari o zutto miteitakatta

I wanted to look at the lights forever

星の下　彷徨い続けて　夜の波間に　浮かんでいたいのに
ささやかな　願いさえ　沈んでゆく
星の海の底で眺める　滲んだままの　哀しい光たち
今は未だ何も知らない　子どものように　跳ねて

hoshi no shita samayoi tsudzukete yoru no namima ni ukandeitai noni
sasayaka na negai sae shizunde yuku
hoshi no umi no soko de nagameru nijinda mama no kanashii hikari tachi
ima wa mada nani mo shiranai kodomo no you ni hanete

Continuing to wander below the stars, I want to keep on floating in the rift of night
but even the most meager of wishes sink away
From the depths of the sea of stars I gaze, as the sad lights, remaining blurred,
prance like children who, for now, still know nothing

夢から醒めるときに　聴こえた　気がしていた
何かが　少しずつ　崩れてゆく音を

yume kara sameru toki ni kikoeta ki ga shiteita
nani ka ga sukoshi zutsu kuzurete yuku oto o

I have a feeling I heard it before I woke up from my dream
The sound of something crumbling bit by bit

その　答えを　きっと　探し出せずに

sono kotae o kitto sagashi dasezu ni

I’m sure I’ll never be able to find the answer

何もかも　溶けて消えてゆく　星の波間に　浮かぶ淡い夢
眩しさに　隠しては　沈んでゆく
星の海の底で揺れてる　滲んだままの　哀しい光たち
全てを失うこと　受け入れてるように　見えて

nani mo kamo tokete kiete yuku hoshi no namima ni ukabu awai yume
mabushisa ni kakushite wa shizunde yuku
hoshi no umi no soko de yureteru nijinda mama no kanashii hikari tachi
subete o ushinau koto o uke ireteru you ni miete

Everything melts and fades away, and the faint dreams that float in the rifts between the stars
hide in the brightness and then sink away
In the depths of the sea of stars, I sway, as the sad lights, remaining blurred,
appear as if they fully accept losing everything

また会う日まで　さよなら

mata au hi made sayonara

Until we meet again, goodbye

星の下　歌い続けてる　届かない事　わかっているのに
昏い輝きを　哀しく　放って
星の海の底で眺める　終わったはずの　優しい光たち
照らしてる　幸せな終わり方を

hoshi no shita utai tsudzuketeru todokanai koto wakatteiru noni
kurai kagayaki o kanashiku hanatte
hoshi no umi no soko de nagameru owatta hazu no yasashii hikari tachi
terashiteru shiawase na owarikata o

Beneath the stars, I continue to sing, even though I know that it won’t reach
sadly sending out a dim shine
From the depths of the sea of stars, I gaze, as the gentle lights that should have ended,
dream and again hide

夢をみては　また隠して

yume o mite wa mata kakushita

a happy way to finish shining

Battle Against Mother Nature

Requested by Andrew. I think this album is completely done now. I’ll never forget how easy it was to format all the posts for this one, since the information was mostly the same each song.

★ Title: BATTLE AGAINST MOTHER NATURE
☆ Album: >>>>
★ Album Artist: ZYTOKINE
☆ Vocals: cold kiss (Nana Takahashi (高橋 菜々))
★ Arrangement and lyrics: Linjin (隣人)
☆ Original Title: The Lost Emotion (亡失のエモーション)

いつか忘れていく　一瞬の輝き
大きな流れに　置いてけぼりの夢
希望の果ての愛

itsu ka wasurete iku isshun no kagayaku
ooki na nagare ni oitekebori no yume
kibou no hate no ai

Someday I’ll forget, that moment of shining
The dream left behind in a great current
Love at the end of hope

巡る世界の理の鎖から
抜け出すための力
希望という儚い夢

meguru sekai no kotowari no kusari kara
nuke dasu tame no chikara
kibou to iu hakanai yume

The power to escape from the chains
of the ways of the revolving world
A fleeting dream called hope

闘う意思を　胸に刻んで　未来を描いて
独りきりで　願った希望の価値は
闘う意味を　求めすぎて　また見失って
通り過ぎた　世界の嘘に焼かれたまま　僕は

tatakau ishi o mune ni kizande mirai o egaite
hitorikiri de negatta kibou no kachi wa
tatakau imi o motome sugite mata mi ushinatte
toori sugita sekai no uso ni yakareta mama boku wa

Carving the will to fight in my heart, I pictured the future
The value of the hope I wished for all alone
Seeking the meaning of fighting too much, I lost sight of it again
Remaining burned by the lies of the world, I passed through

いつか解けていく　一瞬の過ち
静かな流れに　逆らえない矛盾
無情の果ての愛

itsu ka hodokete iku isshun no ayamachi
shizuka na nagare ni sakaraenai mujun
mujou no hate no ai

Someday it’ll come undone, the momentary mistake
The paradox of being unable to fight the calm current
The love at the end being emotionless

笑う世界の理の呪縛から
逃れるための力
希望という儚い嘘

warau sekai no kotowari no jubaku kara
nogareru tame no chikara
kibou to iu hakanai uso

The power to escape from the curses
of the ways of the laughing world
A fleeting lie called hope

闘う意思を　力に変えて　軌跡を描いて
独りきりで　祈った希望の果てに
闘う意味も　知らないまま　ただ灰になった
凍り付いた　世界の嘘を信じたまま　君は

tatakau ishi o chikara ni kaete kiseki o egaite
hitorikiri de inotta kibou no hate ni
tatakau imi mo shiranai mama tada hai ni natta
koori tsuita sekai no uso o shinjita mama kimi wa

I’ll turn my will to fight into power and draw my path
at the end of the hope I prayed for all alone
Not even knowing what it means to fight, I just turned to ash
As you believed in the world’s lies, you were frozen

闘う意思の　果てに消えた　命が凪いで
独りきりで　走る意味　問いかけた
闘う意味を　ごまかしたまま　また灰になった
独りきりで　この世界と闘うとしても　僕

tatakau ishi no hate ni kieta inochi ga naide
hitorikiri de hashiru imi toi kaketa
tatakau imi o gomakashita mama mata hai ni natta
hitorikiri de kono sekai to tatakau toshitemo boku wa

At the end of the will to fight I faded, my life calmed
All alone, I questioned the meaning of running
Misrepresenting the meaning of fighting, I turned to ash again
Even if I fight against this world, I’m all alone

double-edged love

Another semester over, another year over. It’s been a wild ride.
Now that break has started, I plan to translate a lot more and hopefully catch up on all these requests orz.
I mainly did this one because it’s the only song from the new Zytokine remix album coming out that I haven’t already translated.

★ Title: double-edged love
☆ Album: hundred hundred
★ Album Artist: ZYTOKINE
☆ Vocals: cold kiss (Nana Takahashi (高橋 菜々))
★ Arrangement and lyrics: Linjin (隣人)
☆ Original Title: The Positive and Negative

どこから　どこまでが　自分なのかも　曖昧な　この闇
何度目かの夢に　微睡む心を　抱いて眠るばかり

doko kara doko made ga jibun nano kamo aimai na kono yami
nandome ka no yume ni madoromu kokoro o daite nemuru bakari

Where do I begin and where do I end? It’s a vague kind of darkness
All I do is sleep clutching my heart, as it slumbers in its something’th dream

痛みを　忘れていた　暗闇は　ひび割れ始める

itami o wasureteita kurayami wa hibi ware hajimeru

I forgot the pain, and the darkness begins to fissure

瞳を射る　眩しさに浮かんだ
僕という　黒い影　隠れていたはずの
知らなかった　世界が動き出す
それだけで　僕はまた　僕らしく　いられる
君という名の　光に揺られて

hitomi o iru mabushisa ni ukanda
boku to iu kuroi kage kakureteita hazu no
shiranakatta sekai ga ugoki dasu
sore dake de boku wa mata boku rashiku irareru
kimi to iu na no hikari ni yurarete

I floated in the brightness piercing my eyes
The dark shadow called “me” was supposed to be hidden
A world I never knew about begins to move
Just from that alone, I can be myself again
being shaken by the light named “you”

何から　何まで　隠していられた　曖昧な　この闇
照らされなければ　ずっと有象無象で　いられたはずなのに

nani kara nani made kakushite irareta aimai na kono yami
terasarenakereba zutto uzoumuzou de irareta hazu nanoni

How much could I have kept hidden? It’s a vague kind of darkness
If it wasn’t for the spotlight, I would’ve always been able to remain part of the crowd

近づくほどに　醜い世界が暴かれ　始める

chikadzuku hodo ni minikui sekai ga abakare hajimeru

The closer I get, the more an ugly world begins to be unveiled

瞳を射る　眩しさに焦がれた
僕という　黒い影　隠していたはずの
知らなかった　世界が色付いて
それなのに　僕はまた　僕らしく　いられる
君という名の　光を求めて

hitomi o iru mabushisa ni kogareta
boku to iu kuroi kage kakushiteita hazu no
shiranakatta sekai ga irodzuite
sore nano ni boku wa mata boku rashiku irareru
kimi to iu na no hikari o motomete

I fell in love with the brightness piercing my eyes
It was supposed to have hidden the dark shadow called “me”
A world I never knew about begins to change colour,
but even so, I can be myself again
seeking the light named “you”

瞳を射る　眩しさは歪んで
僕という　黒い影　隠れていたはずの
暴かれたくないよ　これ以上は
それなのに　僕はまた　この手を　伸ばしてる
君という名の　光に焼かれて

hitomi o iru mabushisa wa yugande
boku to iu kuroi kage kakureteita hazu no
abakaretakunai yo kore ijou wa
sore nanoni boku wa mata kono te o nobashiteru
kimi to iu na no hikari ni yakarete

The brightness piercing my eyes distorts
The dark shadow called “me” was supposed to be hidden
I don’t want any more than this to be exposed,
but even so, I’m reaching out my hand again
being scorched by the light named “you”
