LUNA SEA - inside you

夢を捧げよう君と二人　永遠に 君の未来だけ閉じ込めたい　永遠に 今　僕だけを見詰めてよ　離さないから 会えない夜は景色さえも　滲む 胸を打つ様に雨の音も　滲む 何故 君だけがこんなにも この心を奪う 全てを忘れて絡み合う様に 生まれ変わった 光の中に 淋しい時程君を感じてる 時空を超えて 結ばれている Don’t be afraid 頬つたう涙拭いさるよ 全て 嬉しい涙に変えて行ける 全て そう 僕だけを照らしてよ その微笑で 神様の庭で繋がれた二人 戸惑いながら 歩き始める 傷ついた時は僕がそばにいる 満たされていた 君を探しに Don’t be afraid 今 僕だけを 見詰めてよ 離さないから

You who holds this dreams of you being with me forever I want only your future to be like that forever [1] Now, look at only me because I won’t let you go The scenery blurs on the nights we don’t meet, And as the sound of the rain hits my heart, it becomes muffled Why, even if you are like this, you’ve stolen my heart? In the light, we were reborn and changed as we forgot everything[2] If you’re lonely, let the cosmos you feel inside you out, tying the both of us together[2] I’ll wipe the all tears falling down your cheeks And turn all of them to tears of joy Yeah With that smile, smother only me In God’s garden, we who were bound together walked on despite the chaos If you’re hurt, I’ll be with you, I’ll find you Don’t be afraid Now, look at only me for I won’t let you go

IMPORTANT

I don’t mean any disrespect to the band and lyrics. I want to understand them that’s why I’m still awake at 3:46AM PHT.

I don’t know what this song is about. I’ll read about it when I find an interview talking about it. (+130920) I have ideas now I’ve read some texts in the Bible. lol And couple stuff which I’m too reluctant to tackle.

Now, let me angst and explore the song in peace. Not that anyone’s bothering me, anyway.

Looking forward to the day I'll regain my memories and become better in Japanese. And overcome these translator blues as I'm not a poet. lol I can translate it any way I want but I'd rather be responsible -- even just a teeny-tiny bit. fufufu

生沢佑一 - 人、神、機-Man God Machine-

In the forgotten center of the world, the outer beings summoned by the deranged Wreaks havoc like a plague in the menacing air Worse than death? So shall it be... Still, few hope against those who bargain their soul Hope that they will one day fall That the clamour of light will end it all And only in true light, shall we see darkness fall 其れはまるで御伽噺 ゆるき眠り蝕んでゆく 純潔で醜悪な儀式が蘇る 胸に深く刻まれる聖約 黒く重き憎に命は煌いて 昏き明日に消ゆる夢　Man God Machine Trespassing the boundaries of mortality In the city, where chaos is the only known rule We shall inherit the key, ancient, and immortal Man God Machine, all for one A clamour for light, slaying the evil inside Clamour for life's light, Igniting the skies For only in that light, we shall see darkness' downfall 走り出した御伽噺 世界燃やす浄化の焔 現と夢喰らう　悪夢が蘇る 胸に巣くい叫んでる怨讐 黒く重き枷に涙は煌いて 光と闇　掌る　Man God Machine Beyond the twilight embracing the light, now we will fly Beneath the stormy clouds, the city waits Our destined place Burning our faith Slaying the evil inside Fire in our eyes We are one 純潔で醜悪な儀式が蘇る 胸に深く刻まれる聖約 黒く重き憎に命は煌いて 昏き明日に消ゆる夢　Man God Machine 終わりのない螺旋 原罪の涯は続く 淡くもろくまたたくは聖約 善と悪の狭間　命を煌かせ 不変と愛　胸に抱く　Man God Machine

In the forgotten center of the world, the outer beings summoned by the deranged Wreaks havoc like a plague in the menacing air Worse than death? So shall it be... Still, few hope against those who bargain their soul Hope that they will one day fall That the clamour of light will end it all And only in true light, shall we see darkness fall It's just like a fairytale Our gentle sleep being eaten by worms Through purity, defiling rites are brought back, Being deeply engraved in our hearts is the holy covenant, In the heavy dark hate, life is gleaming In the dark tomorrow are vanishing fantasies Man God Machine Trespassing the boundaries of mortality In the city, where chaos is the only known rule We shall inherit the key, ancient, and immortal Man God Machine, all for one A clamour for light, slaying the evil inside Clamour for life's light, Igniting the skies For only in that light, we shall see darkness' downfall That fairytale began to break out and run Purifying flames burn the world Nightmares that devour reality and dreams are revived Screaming are the grudge and revenge haunting our hearts Tears on the black, heavy shackles are glistening Light and darkness rule Man God Machine Beyond the twilight embracing the light, now we will fly Beneath the stormy clouds, the city waits Our destined place Burning our faith Slaying the evil inside Fire in our eyes We are one Through purity, defiling rituals are brought back The holy covenant is being deeply engraved in our hearts Life is gleaming in the heavy, dark hate In the dark tomorrow are vanishing fantasies Man God Machine In the unending helix, Original sin's horizon goes on Faint, fragile, and wavering is the holy covenant In the valley of good and evil, make life gleam And hold in our hearts "eternal" love Man God Machine

Still considering other things. There's also the translator blues. (_ _)
I need to know with how the lyrics are "supposed" to be viewed as there's a set audience and stuff.

Review, review, review ga hajimaru.
(I think should just create another site/page for these stuff as I think these are like unwanted DRM... (_ _) )

あなたの手紙には読めない字だけ
会ってその口から聞かせて欲しい

There are only unreadable words in your letter
Face me, I want to hear them personally

慣れない白は苦手 吐息さえ響く
空の色さえ知れたら救われるのに
上手く出来ぬ呼吸もいつか忘れたい
そう願える強さも干涸びそうで

The white I can't get used to makes me weak, Only my breaths resound
although I may be saved if I know just the sky's color
Someday, I want to forget the breaths I can't properly make
It seems even the strength that I'm really wishing for is drying up

「うつ伏せの明日」歌えば 棘を伝う睡眠
身体に絡ませられたRestraint
Even the mind seems to sleep
頬に触れた熱はとても懐かしく優しい
朦朧の狭間で見た影 暖色の夢

If you sing of a "face-down tomorrow", it's like I sleep with thorns [*1]
Restraint bound my body
Even the mind seems to sleep
The warmth that touched my cheek is the gentle one I greatly long for
The silhouette I saw in the dim intervals
A warm-colored dream

あなたに映る私の目が
あなたを見失う日が来ても
この目に焼き付いてくれている
木洩れひ陽の日々とあなたは
連れて行かないで

My eyes that reflect you,
even if the day that they lose sight of you comes,
You'll be etched on my eyes
On the day the sunlight filters through the trees,
Please be with me and don't go

滲む白が揺れる
言葉も忘れそう
涙は流れて何処へ行くの
私の名前を呼んで
砕けるくらい抱いて
これ以上失うのは怖い

The blurred white is shaking
It seems even words are forgotten
Tears flow, Where did you go?
Call my name, Hold me til I break [*2]
Parting like this is scary

あなたは何処で私の事歌っているの
耳をすましても響くのは不安定な鼓動
Even the mind seems to sleep
頬に残ってたはずの熱が思い出ない
朦朧の狭間で見たのは 寒色の現実

Where are you singing about me?
Even if I strain my ears, what I hear is an unstable pulsation
Even the mind seems to sleep
I can't remember the warmth that supposedly left on my cheeks
What I saw in the dim space was
Cold-colored reality [*3]

千羽のとても小さな
あなたの願いに寄り添って

Let these one thousand very small  birds
Bring you close to your wish

笑顔も返せずにただ 吐息を数えていた
記億の最期に。。。
あなたの声が聞こえて
全てを無くした朝

「一つになれぬ二人」

Without being given a mere smile, my breaths were counted
In my last moments...
Let me hear your voice
In the morning everything was lost

"The two who won't become one" [*4]

NOTES:
*1 : think "bed of nails"
*2 : "daite" (embrace/hold/make love)
*3 : "genjitsu" (reality) is sung "ima" (the present / now)
*4 : or "we won't become one" but I think it's just a closing line as in some poems

歪みよこのまま何処へ
Do you take me away?
無意味に刻む時に目を閉じ
空回る本能を見た
欲しがる五感が蜜を啜り
苦も楽も抜け殻のようで
鮮やか過ぎた理想に崩れて瓦礫の海へ
そこに転がる自分に気付く
欲に溺れ戻れない
見上げれば満ち過ぎていた時
この空は濁り果てていた
瓦礫に咲いた花も枯れてしまうね
この目を離せばいつか消えて行く
歪んでゆく景色が俺を笑うよ
まだ見ぬ未来 そこに在るのは「創造」の成れの
果てか?
衰退したまま 何も出来ずに
奇形な現実を泳ぐ
流れに任せ右に倣えば
濁る空も澄んで見えるか?
目の前に映る触れられぬ思い
いつの間にか心は矛盾で濡れていた
この目を離せばいつか消えて行く
僅かなその「想像」もやがて無に落ちる
時が満ちてゆく
ただ 歪んだまま…
まだ見ぬ未来 そこに在るのは「創造」の成れの
果てか?
それとも俺の矛盾か?

Posted via m.livejournal.com.

乾いた足音 肌を染めてく月光
冷たいあなたの手
剥がれぬように引けた暁に
その躊躇いを捨ててくれる?

明日を信じてゆける意味を求め
どこかで壊れてしまった
何もかもが歪んで見えた
ねぇ まだ笑えてる?

抱きしめていて 忘れぬように
声もいつか届かなくなる
舞い散る雨に消え入りそうな
二人の足音が重なり
途切れるまで

強く手を握って
今はそれだけでいい
それがあなたを信じてゆく唯一の光で

抱きしめていて 忘れぬように
声もいつか届かなくなる
舞い散る雨に傘も差せない
そんな自分が悲しい

愛していてね
こんなに脆くなってしまった心も
光を見つめ落ちてゆく二人
やっと重なった
あなたの影と

忘れないでね これが終わりじゃない事

Translation

鏡の奥
歪んだ愛情は
無意識に自我を溶かして
不自由なわたしを飾りたてる
侵食する道徳

Warped in the mirror
The self* unconsciously disappears
I'm displayed as an impaired ornament
Morals are being eroded

あなたの笑顔は私の涙
永久に抜け出せないこの迷宮は
運命？

Your smile are my tears
I can never escape this labyrinth
Is this my fate?

Please take me out here!
息苦しい世界に鍵をかけて
You confine me in the dollhouse!
ガラス製の瞳は悲しくても涙を流せない
夕暮れを知らせる鐘が鳴る

Please take me out here!
Destroy the lock of this suffocating world
You confine me in the dollhouse!
Although my glass eyes are sad, they can't cry
The ringing of the bells say that the night is coming

言葉の幕
暗転の感情は
飽和する痛みと弾けて
不自由なわたしを彩っていく
麻痺する背徳

Words from an act in a play
Saturating emotions from the darkness of a theater *
Bursts of pain
Painting the broken me
Paralyzing corruption

あなたの指はわたしのギプス
上下左右もないこのステージは
絶対絶命？

Your fingers are my plaster cast
There are no ups, downs, lefts, or rights on this stage
Stalemate?

Please take me out here!
息苦しい世界に縛り付けて
Why you keep me in the dollhouse?
Please take me out here!
ほつれた唇は悲鳴を上げても声にならなくて零れて溢れる
ブリキの愛
Please take me out here!
息苦しい世界に鍵をかけて
Why you keep me in the dollhouse?
Please take me out here!
ガラス製の瞳は悲しくても涙を流せない
飲み干すは遊戯のカンタレラ

Please take me out here!
This world is choking me
Why you keep me in the dollhouse?
Please take me out here!
Even if I scream, my voice does not come out
Tin's love *
Please take me out here!
Although my glass eyes are sad, they can't cry


NOTE:
* 自我 (jika) - ego self

It is, when you become so afraid of believing people, to the point that you can't even see the important things anymore. - RUKI, the GazettE


Lyrics.

Is a literal approach better? Is this phrase applicable to the culture? Do these words reflect the lyricist's thoughts or is it just reflecting my interpretation? I've been bugged by these. I want the translations to be close to the Japanese feel but cultural differences and experiences are an issue. I didn't experience these things, I do not have a complete understanding regarding the theme, and I do not know the what the writers want to convey when they are working on these. Though I badly want to understand and for others to understand them too, I'll probably provide a lame interpretation and destroy the things that these people have worked for. It's similar to localization of manga, isn't it?

I've decided that I will not be posting any more lyrics translation. This will be my on-line backup of the lyrics, in case my 邪人 (my notebook's name) fails, and only I can view them.

Some posts will remain public but this journal will mainly be for my Japanese practice. I don't know if they will be of any use to anyone else and, perhaps, I don't care.

Cheers.

-H.

H: Regarding copyright, I don't want to get into trouble so I'm planning on privatizing all the posts (a.k.a. "members only"). But who will correct/provide ideas for the translations if only I can see them? I don't accept membership... I created this journal (yeah, I know it's supposedly a "community") because I don't want my "projects" mixed with my personal stuff. I'm having OCD attacks lately. Heh.

G: How about moderated membership?
H: I'm too lazy. Too lazy. And not all people have LiveJournal accounts. (Anyway, setting this to moderated membership but the posts will still be public.)

G: Why not create another personal journal instead?
H: I am too lazy to create another one. It's easier to organize things like this. Plus, I can't cheat by doing this. (← I don't want to explain. You know, anyway.) Also, what's the difference? I (badly) want to improve my Japanese so I don't have to wait for translations anymore. Regarding lyrics, I don't want others mislead by faulty lyrics. I mean, sometimes, even sites with JASRAC license have posts like that. (Correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, I'm about to read these articles by JASRAC. I think they're about fees... Ah. WTH. I wish I hadn't read.)
