The Words You Gave Me

Even tears spilt turn into memories.
In a short while, dawn will illuminate this heart.
Even sad eyes give way to smiling.
In fragments, I see the scenery connecting.
 
Time flows, taking everything along with it.
The past transforms alongside feelings.
 
“It’s fine to go walking, just looking ahead,”
the words you gave me, I’ll never forget.
Even if this shape someday disappears -
it’ll be right here, unfading. Because its imprint remains.
 
Even memories I wish to forget dissolve into the ocean.
Warm light engulfs this heart.
Even days regretted form a gentle surface of water.
Whilst being led, I slowly let go.
 
Stars flow, sending everything along with them.
Let’s transform this sky alongside the light.
 
“I love the face you make when you’re often laughing,”
the words you gave me, I’ll never grow apart from them.
Even if the seasons spin round, informing me of the end -
I’ll be right here, forever. Because I’m living.
 
Let me see it in the final moment. That smiling face of yours,
even now, greatly lends courage to this heart.
 
“It’s fine to go walking, just looking ahead,”
the words you gave me, I’ll never forget.
Even if the seasons spin round, informing me of the end -
I’ll be right here, forever. Because I’m living.
I’m walking, looking only forward...
 

Moonlight

When I was going to bed alone I dreamed impossible dreams
One drop of moonlight can't stop my uneasiness
 
The crescent moon is a sign of a night of dangerous virgins
The girl's feelings know romance with a kiss
 
Because when someone tried to hurt me
I understood love
 
Hold me moonlight, if I'm glad to be a woman
Hold me moonlight, tell me who I am
 
I'm dying for meeting you
If I were the wind, I'd kidnap you
In my gaze, in my fingertips
Moonlight, stay full tonight
 
The full moon paints my nails
I reborn as a black cat
My soft skin honestly
Hits the tides, I'm a classy prostitute
 
When someone left me alone
I remembered his words of love
 
Hold me moonlight, till inside my heart
Hold me moonlight, teach me your favorite gestures
 
Even if I'm born again
I prefer to be a beautiful woman
I want to play tenderness
Moonlight, stay full
 
I'm dying for meeting you
If I were the wind, I'd kidnap you
In my gaze, in my fingertips
Moonlight, stay full tonight
 

Gathering Clouds Behind The Moon, Flowers in The Wind

Gathering clouds behind the moon, flowers in the wind
Impatience hiding under uncertainty
 
The face with clear eyelids
Even proof of patrons
 
It instantly filled up the gaps between tedium
Leaving my heart stagnant, giving birth to insecurities
 
Happening upon a relief where blindness disappeared
I learned of love that I would never yield
 
Gathering clouds behind the moon, flowers in the wind
If I can’t build the bridge from here forever and ever
Break through the clouds and slash the wind
Lead me into ageless vacillation
 
Entangle your fingers with mine
Make loneliness wither away
 
The bias of earnest emotions
Vital to the connection of our intentions
 
The tie looks as though it were poison
But it doesn’t come off in a subtle premonition of finis
 
Gathering clouds behind the moon, flowers in the wind
Even if the song of love weren’t to be forever within reach
I should be waiting for time to reincarnate
This I swear by my benignant heart
 
Happening upon a relief where blindness disappeared
I learned of love that I would never yield
 
Gathering clouds behind the moon, flowers in the wind
If I can’t build the bridge from here forever and ever
Break through the clouds and slash the wind
Lead me into ageless vacillation
 
Gathering clouds behind the moon, flowers in the wind
Even if the song of love weren’t to be forever within reach
I should be waiting for time to reincarnate
This I swear by my benignant heart
 

Forbidden Moonsong

'The fireflies, the passing night'..sings the shadow within the riff
'The stars and moon, staring down'.. sings the wolf atop the cliff.
The pale prince, the lonesome tune.. looking for someone to share the moon!
The moonlit girl, the painful truth... he has paid when I could not!
 
The pretty lie, the ugly truth. Spare the prince and take the wolf.
Take my voice and make things right. The stepping stone to-wards...
 
Be...
...ing!
 
Your light!
 
Follow my lead, don't stray from my hand!
The moonlit concert, is not to be heard!
I'll lead you through the storm or through snow!
Hold onto my hand, don't flinch or I'll roar!
Nothing to fear, with the song in your heart!
I won't let go, without your hand!
Remember our shortest time together!
The pretty lies... the ugly truth...
 
The beautiful guise...
The ugly...
 
Truth...
 

August, A Certain Person, Moonlight

I don’t need anything.
 
My heart was noisy, my breath caught whenever I walked
I ran from my first part time job
In my music and my life, whatever it was
Unpleasant things just kept increasing
 
A certain august, moonlight, I took off on my bike
The bridge at Higashi-Fushimi Station, Kodaira, Fujimi Street, and the shopping district
The night wind tickled at my nose, this pain in my heart must have been just my imagination
I understood that, I pretended to understand.
 
The worst, it’s the worst
Everything about me is the worst
I wanted that shape of you to remain
I suppose I’ll have to do something about these memories
 
The worst, it’s the worst
I can’t help that I felt good
It’s the worst but these lyrics themselves are
 
If my life would have ended at twenty seven then rock and roll saved me
I’m done thinking about it! I would have died any case
You don’t need anything either
 
My heart was noisy
My throat was laughably dry.
I sold my heart for the first time
Because of a heart attack or my pride, whatever it was
Maybe even because of those unpleasant things I lowered my head.
 
A certain august, I rode down that scene,
Stockholm’s open air stalls, Kiruna, Gamla Stan
Only you closed off your heart
The blueness of this sky must have been just my imagination
Smiling, with that smiling face remaining
 
It’s the worst, it’s so arrogant, the greed that you and everyone else has.
Dramatic songs and love, hey, it can’t be helped that they’re absurd.
I understood, I understood
Your life, it’s yours
This is the worst but I’ll still shout it
 
It has to be, it surely has to be
That they play rock and roll over in the that world
And not hymns
After all there is no god
None of them care, neither crimes nor errors nor criminals nor suicides nor wars or minorities
 
It’s the worst, it’s the worst, this separation is just arrogance
I’d like to bow to you
That’s the same as deception, Elma!
 
The worst, the worst it was lovely there was no way around it
I want to grieve on this dramatic night
 
The worst, it’s the worst, words are so tedious
Your life was my moonlight
Isn’t that something people commonly say?
 
The worst, it’s the worst, I couldn’t help but laugh
It’s the worst, lyrics for the sake of their sound
 
If my life would have ended at twenty seven then rock and roll saved me
I’m done thinking about it! I would have died in any case
 
The present, love, the past, dreams, memories, humming, thin eyes, night mist,
Gentleness, suffering, bouquets of flowers, melancholy, that summer, this song,
Hypocrisy, night wind, lies, you, me, blue skies, i don’t need them or anything at all.
 

Honeymoon

There is ferris wheel and the buildings that stand in a row
I always watching you from behind
Choosing the words as time goes by
My lies are reflected from water’s surface
 
I wish you remember it, like a moon that we see at that time
I’ll sing a song, so my voice can reach you
I hope you remember it, like a snow that fall at that time
I’ll sing a song, so this song can reach you
 
Like a wind, like a honey, like a bird, mm
 
The sleeper train and the bend canned beer
Recently, the smell of your cigarette has been different
In the night station that covered by the snow, so it become pure white
I always see the sea of winter that very dark
 
I wish you remember it, like a smell of the flower at that time
I’ll sing a song, so this voice can reach you
I wish you remember it, like the sound of the sea at that time
I’ll sing a sing, so this song can reach you
 
Like a seed, like a light, like the scent, mm
 
I wish you remember it, like a moon that we see at that time
I sing a song, so my voice can reach you
I hope you remember it, like a snow that fall at that time
I’ll sing a song, so this song can reach you
 
Like a wind, like a honey, like a bird, mm
 

Fantasy Rumba

Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
 
Wandering around looks just like the rumba
Staggering around in a mess, like the rumba
It may be shaky but I'm still living the rumba
From the side it looks like a dance, rumba
 
If it's alright would you like to dance with me?
No way, you can't dance
But it's lonely by myself, let's dance the rumba
Get away from me, do a one-man rumba
 
Who decided my worth?
Tigers and leopards lurk in our minds
They don't know that the beasts are lurking
So they undervalue us
Release!
 
Now, when they run about
We are going to dance the rumba
Smiling lightly along with you
Will that day ever come?
I don't know
 
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
 
Midnight report-selling lecture, rumba
If you watch you too can dance the rumba
That looks expensive, how much is it, rumba?
If you buy it in a set, it's a discount, rumba
 
If that is so, shall I buy one in a set?
No way, I don't want to share a set with you
If you lose, it's a raging life rumba
It's a feet-stamping life rumba
 
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
 
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
Rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba, rumba
 
Who decided my worth?
Stars and flowers hide within our hearts
They don't know that we shine
So they give us a cheap price and laugh
They don't know about our sharp teeth and nails
So they put us on sale
Tear them apart!
 
Now, when they run about
Let us dance a true rumba
Smiling lightly along with you
For a day like that to come
I'm still believing, rumba
 
If there is a value for humans
Who decides those things?
Shall I decide my own worth?
I can't even decide
Your worth
I just don't know
 

As a Human, I'm Quite Warped

Warped, warped, warped, warped
Warped, warped, warped, warped
Warped, warped, warped, warped
Warped, warped, warped, warped
 
I was watching the TV late at night
I had nothing to do so I was just watching it absent-mindedly
Flipping through channels, successful people were getting recognition
That person isn't warped at all... how wonderful*
 
'How boring,' I thought and turned it off
Better go to sleep, I have work from tomorrow on
 
Unable to go to sleep, I flipped through some comics
A gravure idol was smiling at me**
That athlete is just my type.
Those sorts aren't warped at all... how wonderful
 
I get it, the reason I'm not rewarded
Is because, as a person, I'm quite warped
 
So sit up properly! Already,
I'm warping, warping, warping away
Make it so I can't tell why I'm trembling!
Slipping away! I'm already a warped human
But if you are here, I can change?
Just realize that I am here
 
Think of the warping as a surge
Won't this warping change the world as well?
I feel people can't help but notice me
Even if now they can only see me trembling
 
Alright, I get it, the reason I'm not rewarded
Is because, as a person, I'm quite warped
 
Ah, I get it, the reason I'm trembling
Is because I don't have anyone to support me
 
I'm sitting up! Already,
We're warping, warping, warping away
Make it so I can't tell why I'm trembling!
Slipping away! I'm already a warped human
But if I meet you, I can change?
Just realize that I am here
 

White flower ~White garden~

The falling white flowers flutter and dance
My tears and scars turn into strength, like a wake up
 
Over my shoulder, someday I was looking at that scenery
I was hearing about that small period like a fairy tale
 
I wandered into the deep forest of my memories
Trying with no result to find the signposts towards you
 
The falling white flowers flutter and overlap
My feelings stood still and dyed white
I sent back towards this sky the words I couldn't say
My pain and scars turn into strength, like a wake up
 
Had I not been touched by those hands, I wouldn’t have met warmth and loneliness
I’d probably continue sleeping
 
I've kept on waiting for the light
I've spent a long time frozen, carrying my weakness
 
The falling white flowers flutter and overlap
It's like filling the time's blank space alone
Eternity doesn't return to this sky
My tears and scars turn into strength, like a wake up
 
While drinking the red lie that you left
I went back to that place
 
The falling white flowers flutter and overlap
My feelings stood still and dyed white
I sent back towards this sky the words I couldn't say
My pain and scars turn into strength, like a wake up
 

Sake alone

Is the sake that a face drinks
or is the sake the throws the regrets away?
Though I turned my back coldly on purpose
My male instincts are choked by the midnight
Ah, falling in love, someone else's flowers are painful
 
Why an illusion boat undergoes great hardships
Flowing by the river of dark pains?
The lipstick is sad, the the straggling hair cries
'Take me with you' implores a woman
Ah, a woman who doesn't want to worry me
 
It's sad, surely hateful
Wanting to meet becomes worse, I have no confidence
I fill myself of sake, alone and cold
If it was a game, I'd embrace you
Ah, a silhouette makes my dreams stumble

Mr.Fake

That day, I thought of seeking refuge under the moonlight
An illusion for a friend
In a show without an audience, I gulp down the Joker
I put on the mask like a pierrot
 
I look around, and laugh again today
My self-worth rots away
 
Even if I know now the limits of my own body,
I wouldn’t be able to change this unchanging game
Even if I went back and read the chapters of my life,
I can’t seem to find where I went wrong
 
I can’t find it
 
Hey, if it’s just a bit too unbearable
Isn’t choosing to give up better than wasting your strength?
Colorless, transparent sins will only pile up
Only sins accumulate in this game of life
 
Believing only to be betrayed, I can only smile
Did you really think I was fine?
 
Society is nothing special,
but somehow, it feels like an indescribable mess
Even if I spoke words of friendship,
the distorted falsehood of this would only be further exposed
 
That person is too hiding something
creating a shell of some kind
At some point, I knew I became this way
Yet, I can’t breathe a word to anyone, right? Right?
 
Even if I know now the limits of my own body,
I wouldn’t be able to change this unchanging game
Even if I went back and read the chapters of my life,
You who has been betrayed -
- I found you.
 
Society is nothing special,
but somehow, it feels like an indescribable mess
Even if I spoke words of friendship,
the distorted falsehood of this would only be further exposed
 
It’s fun like this - who’s next?
Who’s next?
 
The feathers on my back
I thought there was meaning to them, and yet
I couldn’t notice them today either
So I’ll reset and start a new game
 

The moon is beautiful

I talk some words to you, and you answer me with some words
It is suery words that has shortened the distance between you and me
Just what I thought while I lay on the ground and look up to the stary sky
is the words I'm going to talk
 
We are always straying as dust in the universe
Since we all are tied to the ground,
it's our instinct that we try to protest the gravity
 
Why do tears drops to the ground? It's because they have certain weight
The joy and agony for our lives are like satelites for planets
I wanted to grasp only joy. But since I got too close, I crashed to the ground
I felt it was messed, and cried. By the way, the moon is beautiful today
 
I measure time with words. I throw away the past which is 1000 words away
He is 10000 words far from me, so I went for a drink with him to get closer
As a result, I walked with an unsteady gait heading for my home. I had no idea whether I was going north or south
I surrendered and laid on the road. If I was supposed to go to the sky, I could go without losing myseld
 
Do not criticize others in order to save your pride
Sew up as soon as it gets some rents in it
It looks ragged, with many patching. But it's what beliefs are usually like
 
Since we can't fly, I could see the scenary. Trivial beauties are suitable for us
The joy and agony for our lives are like satelites for planets
I wanted to keep away from onry sorrow. But since I got too far, I was released
It was so dark that I couldn't help crying. By the way, the moon is beautiful today
 
How many words do I have to spend to reach that planet?
It's natural that I get stubborn, because it's my life
I pile up so many, and they collapse. The higher it gets, the less stable yourmy foothold gets
Resist. Resist. Resist the gravity.
I'm not interested in suceeding anything with that
I'm just going against. I'm just going against.
 
The blank of losing and lacking. I chose something to fill it.
The joy and agony for our lives are like satelites for planets
The words for us, tied by the gravity, to reach that star
We lie on the road. By the way, the moon is beautiful today
 

Blue moon filled

In cold nights, the blue moon illuminates this scar
The sky becomes clouded whenever I make a wish
 
Even if my tears are shed
in exchange of a lie,
repeating the excuses,
I'm living in the darkness
 
The future that lies at the end of this sadness
just dyes in blue
this frightened heart
In this beautiful world that was smeared with lies
I reached out
for the radiance growing hazy and looked up at the moon
 
Within the painted lies, lies asleep a faint song
The distorted thoughts oozes out
 
Reality was exchanged
by the enchanting illusions
The mistakes pile up
sinking me deep
 
This pain entangles me with a chain
that won't cease this ache
It'll bind me forever
What I want to protect is this ephemeral warmth
I stop to embrace
the silence that was broken
 
As the moon waxes
my fleeting words are swallowed up again
before I express them
 
The future that lies at the end of this sadness
just dyes in blue
this frightened heart
In this beautiful world that was smeared with lies
I reached out
for the radiance growing hazy and looked up at the moon
 

Chariot of Dawn (Akatsuki no Kuruma)

Calling out to the wind under the shade of the trees, weeping with my head hung low
The me I see is someone I can't seem to recognize
A guitar plays the melody of those who have already passed away
As the stars fall in grief of those who will never return again
 
Don't leave me, how I screamed
But it brings me only the silence of the orange blossom petals* swaying in the wind
These memories from ages ago still remain
Of my tender forehead under your caress
Strum to the tune of an eternal farewell
 
This innocent's heart was still relying on, clinging to your gentle hand
But the blazing wheels of war cast it aside and charged on
The guitar melody rings out in lamentation for the dead
And stridently are my heartstrings plucked, along to that desolate tune
 
Unstained by sorrow in their pure white
These orange blossom petals now sway in the shadow of summer
So even if that tender forehead is lost
This unending desert sand dyed blood-red I'll traverse
The rhythms of goodbye**
 
With our memories ravaged through this holocaust, we advance to a new world
And there, after missing it for so long, will we see sprouts of new life?
 
Sending away the chariot of dawn
Those orange blossom petals, somewhere they are still swaying
Until the day comes when a peaceful sunrise can be had again
Don’t let this flame die
The wheels of the chariot churns on…
 
I tried to convey the emotions in the original lyrics while maintaining the correct meanings, without translating word for word.

Cherry blossom​s, dancing in the moonlight

The voice that anxiously waits for the spring quietly resounds in the darkness
The song of the passing seasons slowly starts to awaken
 
On the water illuminated by the moonlight lightly float the cherry blossoms
With a faint smile I excitedly reach my hand to the crimson scenery
 
As the spring wind blows through the west the rustling breeze carries my feelings and I offer my prayers to the distant sky
 
As the flower buds unravel, beautifully fluttering, flower petals swoop down and dance clad in the moonlight
Wearing a fancy kimono, I watch the glimmer of impermanent worldly things as the third lunar month is enveloped in a pink scenery that begins to overflow
Dancing in this fleeting reddening world
 
I suddenly let out a sigh ​and dye my concealed anxiety
As I gracefully fold the sleeves of my garments
 
Now blooming to their fullest, the cherry blossom​s light up the night
'Is it a dream or reality' I faintly whisper, being entranced by the flowers
 
Hearing the silent voice regretting the time's passage, I rest my eyes on the view and bid it farewell as the season changes again
 
The dancing storm of falling cherry blossoms​ under the moonlight are like a flickering illusion
Glamorously fluttering, continuing to dye this transient world
The flowers in the wind accept the sadness that they will obscurely wear out and through the tears I see a hazy moon dyed in a tender pink
They keep blooming and falling, unable to escape their fate
 
Inviting me into a dream, beautifully fluttering the flower petals swoop down into disorder clad in the moonlight
Wearing a fancy kimono, I watch the short lived things burn up as the third lunar month is enveloped in a pink scenery that begins to overflow
Dancing in this fleeting reddening world
 

Mountains and rivers

All the people are born in the mountains and rivers, embracing and challenging
All the people believe in the mountains and rivers, calming down and loving
There, connected to life, we carve life
And then in the end, we return to the mountains and rivers
 
Looking back, there are no regrets
I ought to have left my footprints in the mountain
The eternal light of the water surface increase the dreams
They ought to have floaten on the river
In the eyes of the lovers, In the eyes of the lovers
My mountains and rivers are beautiful? are beautiful?
 
The heart loads the time projecting mountains
The heart spills the time painting rivers
There, one piles up and flows with time
All the people house mountains and rivers
 
Thinking suddenly, I don't have a single regret
I ought to have built the mountain of joy
Wrinkled, I cry with happiness
I ought to have harbored a sorrowless river
In the eyes of the lovers, In the eyes of the lovers
My mountains and rivers are beautiful? are beautiful?
 
Looking back, there are no regrets
I ought to have left my footprints in the mountain
The eternal light of the water surface increase the dreams
They ought to have floaten on the river
In the eyes of the lovers, In the eyes of the lovers
My mountains and rivers are beautiful? are beautiful?

Pledge

Are you making a pledge with someone?
Are you bonding an eternal heart?
 
The swell of waves reaches the coast
Loading a song of the past
Violent emotions break
Like tears
 
Now the greenery is fresh?
Girls ae beautiful?
The heart of people like a gull
Is probably pure white?
Beautiful lover
Vigorous lover
 
The morning light dyes the sea
Loaded with living dreams
Dazzling desires shine
Like life
 
Now the flow is probably clean?
Children are joyful?
People always like a cherry blossom
probably smile?
Beautiful lover
Vigorous lover
 
Beautiful lover
Vigorous lover

Marvel-of-Peru

A marvel-of-Peru blooming in the rain
Suits your lonely profile
Used to cry and be sad
Resignation always takes precedence
I a new casual meeting happens
I'll never part from you
 
'Because I love you, it's fine' I said and you broke down in this arm
Your warmth in the thinness of my nape
Moles of crying in my white fingers
In your long eyelashes, tears remain
'At the entrance of happiness there is no crying?'
Says the bittersweetness of the worried alcohol
 
You carry the sadness of the men's world with you
Despite that time you could start again
Used to cry and be sad
Do you live alone now too?
The lights of the city turning around get blur in the distance
Until the end of the road there are smelling flowers

A couple with you

A woman who doesn't leave says 'I'm used to be sad'
To this heart draws its thin hand near
Ah, a sobbing person
Let's forget the past
If you're here now, it's good
Happiness, happiness
From today I'll have it with you
 
A haggard ring finger gave me troubles
I'll never split from you
Ah, drying your tears
The habit of crying wetting my eyelids
Hasn't changed that time
Happiness, happiness
From today I'll have it with you
 
Since you could once go to the road of the sunny hill
Like this, blindfolded
Ah, I want to take you
You still have the same ache in your heart
We're fellows
Happiness, happiness
From today I'll have it with you

Life's hide and seek

Because saying 'I was in love with you only'
Is stupid, I don't say any word
The wind pierces, my heart is cold
Playing hide and seek with life for a moment
Picking up the lights I walk staggering
 
Don't you understand? In the sweetness
Can't live a man's bitterness
You fool. Turn your back
Playing hide and seek with life for a moment
By being stubborn, I'm alone
 
If time elapses, the world will change
What won't change is my heart
Sake, tonight I want you to get me drunk
Playing hide and seek with life for a moment
I live crying and laughing

Night sky

I don't know where is that girl
Is she on that town where the starry sky continues?
A whistle of fine wind
Pierces me after a love wound
Ah, becuase it's an abandoned love
Even more, I want to see it, I want to see it
Once more
The night is always loneliness
 
That girl said she was going home
Riding on a falling star I seemed to call her
Nobody replied me
Only white flowers fall
Ah, Because it's an unfulfilled dream
Even more, is sad, is sad
My heart
The night sky is distand and infinite

Chikuma river

On the water stream, a crying man
Makes float softly some petals
A travel to Shinano makes a forget-me-not remember,
a first love that won't return
 
Where tomorrow are drifting clouds
The smoke will hover avobe the Asama mount
Far away the capital calls in the distance
The autumn wind stands in the zebra grass road
 
If I follow all alone the reed pipe timbre
Chikuma river looks sad
A little wave coming near will wane on the coast
The village lights are lit on the road to Shinano

Yokohama Twilight

Yokohama Twilight, a small room of an hotel
The scent of a kiss, tobacco smoke
Blues whistle, woman tears
That person is gone
That person is gone
And won't return
 
Backstreet snack bars, sake that doesn't get drunk
Casual liars, whimsical men
Love songs without address, sinking guitars
That person is gone
That person is gone
He's somewhere else
 
Memories of the cold wintry wind, grey coats
Blue light resignation, cold dawn
Oceanic noise, lighthouses, a gull
That person is gone
That person is gone
It's the end

A flower of dreams

If to the amulet of your heart
I could get used at least
Just for burying my loneliness
I could meet you secretly
If you drink sake somewhere
Call me softly
I can't stay away from the phone until late at night
Because I always wait for you
I understand that I'm someone who can't love
But my feelings get worse
Even if it's for a short time
And then sadness comes
Could you make bloom a flower of dreams?
 
On the corner of your heart
Let me live at least
Because I like it to the extent that I want to cry
It's fine even if I only meet you
'If tomorrow is useless, the day after
Surely will be a good day'
I say to myself in the mirror
Loading my chest with tears
Everybody says I'm someone who can't love
But they don't understand the pain of my heart
Someday, the crying day might come
Even if the farewell season comes
Could you make bloom a flower of spring?
Could you make bloom a flower of dreams?

Flatboat

The snow, the cherry trees and the light of the fireflies
Seem drawn if I see them with you
After half year, more than happiness
It's a good example of the sin of a night
Hold me please with all your strength
Tonight I'm leaving on a flatboat
 
Without noticing the ambush of a sad farewell
I tied an obi of flowers
I'm in love with you until death and yet
Pretending to be drunk and disordered
I lie to you saying that I ran out of friendliness
My shallow dreams are on a flatboat
 
What is sad in this world?
Only to have fallen in love with you
Even if I call you, you'll never come back
The destiny of men consumes me
Tomorrow, wherever I go
I'll cry for a woman on a flatboat

Light snowfall

Crying I threw at your back
A snowball full of hate
Now this hand and my tired chest
Yearn for the lies of a man
Hold me again please
There's a light snowfall outside
 
The sequence of sorrows suits a woman
As I have the fading snow close
I look for back to back warmth
If you were here, I could live
The remainders of dreams seem to fade
There's a light snowfall outside
 
You said to me 'Get drunk'
Red is the sad waterflower
'If the spring comes, I want a fresh start'
Decides in my heart, an unseen sake
Give me a bit more of sake
There's a light snowfall outside

Dawn

Tears spill for the days you cannot return to
The sky above burns crimson
 
If you realize your own strength, weakness, then now
 
You, don't fear
Cut through the winds as your heart wills
The dawn will shine upon your journey
 
Gather
The ferocious arm, the eyes that see a thousand leagues
The legs that run through the skies, the eternal shield
 
Here, fulfill the ancient vow
O night, break
 
A single blossom falls upon the water's surface, far away, far away it drifts
Who knows the heart of the king, clouded yet
 
As if piercing a passing doubt
Nock your arrow to your bow, release it far, far away
 
Your crimson hair flutters
You've decided you will live on
Your torn nails and scars
Will become tomorrows strength
 
You, don't forget
Your dream of seeing the burning end of the skies
Those fragments will surely awaken, waiting
 
You, don't fear
Cut through the winds as your heart wills
Do not stop, push forward as you do
 
Exchange white bonds
Offers your prayers to the azure night
Sow seeds of green
And embrace the golden fruit
 

Surely, This is Love

Love isn't self-righteous
The things that dwell within you are more important than myself
 
Ah, if we were
The protagonist and heroine of that movie
Then, the finale of our Kishoutenketsu*
Would be a dramatic kiss
 
No matter how I say it, it's not very smooth
It's a tough world, but
I'm already prepared for it
'If it's for your sake, I would die!'
These words aren't lies
 
Love isn't self-righteous
The things that dwell within you are more important than myself
Love isn't visible to the naked eye
When I think of you, my heartbeat seems to waver
Forever and ever, it won't change
I just want to see your smile
 
I just want to see your smile
 
No matter what words I use, it's not enough to convey my feelings, ah
'What words should I use to reach you?'
Even if falling in love is a big fuss, I'll always do it again and again
'What do you think?'
 
Adam and Eve didn't know any better, so
Let's ascertain the outcome of our love!
 
If, tomorrow, the world
would end, then let's
Turn away from the important things
'cause we have no space for them!
 
Love isn't self-righteous
The things that dwell within you are more important than myself
Love isn't visible to the naked eye
A heart that thinks of and senses you
 
Love isn't something that can be forced
The things I think of you are more important than myself
Love isn't something you need to overstretch yourself for
My heart will never ever change
Forever and ever, it won't change
These feelings, which I've never been more certain of (together with happiness)
Won't you accept them?
 
Always love'n you
I'm in love with you
 
I wonder if this song, which I offer to you
Is able to bring forth my love...?
 

If I Leapt through Time

In the still closed diary
I left some pages half-written
 
Back when I was dreaming myself
Even now, it doesn't seem for me to get a little closer
 
Gather it up one by one
Even if it's a long way around
There's nothing to do in vain
Because I believe that it reaches there someday
 
If I leapt through time
I wonder what I'd tell to the past
I'm still confused but it's alright
The path is leading ahead even now
 
The hourglass that you gave me
Looks like a dream I saw one day
 
The traveler who dropped in on me
From the other side of far-off time
 
I can't get there on my own
Beyond the lofty wall
Let's go over it, hand in hand
Because I will be by your side forever
 
If I leapt through time
I wonder what I'd bring to the future
A memory that remains within my chest
Or a melody that brightens your smile
 
It doesn't change, never will
Holding on to my dreams
More and more, I want to change
That's why I like it, even more
 
Faraway era, a remote country
Echoes of the several melodies
The shine that bridges the sky
Will leap through time
 
An endlessly continuing story
On each stage of ours that we never see again
I wonder what will ever happen
On the other side of the open door
 

The fourteenth moon

In the day after the night of the full moon the bell crickets spend their short lives in trail of the bush clover
A pale thing glitters on your cheek
A thing that falls along
 
I love the moon of the fourteenth day
since I can still hope for it to become full tomorrow
In the end of it we will tightly embrace each other in the empty train station
 
No matter how many times it repeats its waxing and waning
we shall always be under today's moon
No matter how many times you and me will miss each other
we shall always meet under today's moon
 
Is this noisy summer a dream or an illusion I wonder as the wind blows on the grass
Both being tied together and the severing of life
were not to be allowed
 
The two of us shall pray to the moon of the fourteenth day
and then embrace the unwaning of our memories
even if the night train will carry you far away
 
Please please I want to live happily
No matter with who I will watch today's moon
 
No matter how many times it repeats its waxing and waning
we shall always be under today's moon
 
We shall always meet under today's moon
 

Moon

We are dust after all like stardust, so I tell you frankly
No escape, Now or never
The root never changes, the reason for singing
Is it for someone else, not me? No…
I just want to sing to feel good and die, it’s a hybrid of self-satisfaction and egoism
For those who still listen to me, here’s my genuine 'thank you'
I’m happy because my voice reaches somewhere at least although it’s not too loud
I don’t have the confidence to be the sun to shed light on everyone
But maybe I can be the moon that eases your twisted heart?
You may be hiding and listening to me secretly, hesitant to take the first step
Whenever you feel you want to, I’ll be waiting under the mirror ball
 
Why are you squeezing yourself there?
Don’t be afraid, come closer (You & I, session)
I’ll wait for you (All we gotta do is to connect the melodies)
It may not be your ideal, but come to me any time, you know
There may be sad, miserable days. If your heart is having a lingering shower,
Listen to me, like taking shelter. It’s a temporary showcase
Mixing the sound instead of liquor. Even a child can immerse
It’s foolish to alternate joy and sorrow all the time, but I can’t help but love it
Using my awkward kindness that sometimes hurts myself as an excuse for not saying that word
Tangled up in a twisted negative loop
I can only find a place to live by this clumsy way
When no one understands you, rather than being depressed take a look at the fake moon*
 
Why are you squeezing yourself there?
Don’t be afraid, come closer (You & I, session)
I’ll wait for you (All we gotta do to connect the melodies)
It may not be your ideal, but come to me any time, you know
 
Like a bird in a cage, feeling deadly and smothered
You can’t just stare at the candle melting down
That flame is time, or a life. If you can spread your wings,
even that fake moon in a tiny planetarium is fine
 
Say yeah! Singin’ in the moonlight...
 
It’s not guaranteed to be there all the time
So please let me listen to you before I lose it
In your own voice, say my name, under the moonlight
 
Why are you squeezing yourself there?
Don’t be afraid, come closer (You & I, session)
I’ll wait for you (All we gotta do to connect the melodies)
It may not be your ideal, but come to me any time, you know
 
Say yeah! Singin’ in the moonlight…
 

Lesser Beast

Going to feed my hunger
I saw myself full of opportunities
As I approach carelessly
I end up being swallowed
 
This cutting-edge tech devil
Goes beyond intuition
And even if it doesn't feel like waking up
I think it's powerful
 
Although she has frail fangs
She doesn't seem to want to bite me
Although I look after this girl, somehow
She is a lesser beast
 
Even if those with their failing instincts
Don't notice it
All together with their curved backs
She is sharping her claws, making scratching sounds
 
Even with mere smiles
And light blue tears
She can't keep her camouflage
It smells like danger
 
Although she has frail fangs
She doesn't seem to want to bite me
Although I look after this girl, somehow
She is a lesser beast
 
Before I end up being sniffed
I have to escape immediately
Although I look after this girl, somehow
We're just the same
Lesser beasts
