Unblock - Yoru o koete (english translation)

I'm not very confident about this one - especially the second half. I put asterisks at the end of a few lines that might be very wrong.



夜を越えて / Pass Through the Night

Each day of my life, I’m picturing my ideal scene
That’s right, I’ve started competing with others*
Most of the time, I can keep going pretending not to see my failures

I say “Finally, I’ve hit a high”**
But, as always, I’m just being stupid
It’s like I don’t have any talent

“Your songs have no heart”
How does pretentious criticism like that feel?

Time has passed
Of course it has
The world has changed
What have we become?

Even if my voice withers away, my breath is still here
Gaining speed and flowing out
So we can laugh together again one day,***
Now, I reach my hand out to the fish I’ve set free

The night will give way to dawn
I want to cry, but until the day my heart turns to ash as well,
I'll watch what I've pictured disappear, and****
Imagine what the future will hold

The night will give way to dawn
I want to cry, but until the day my heart turns to ash as well,
I'll watch what I've pictured disappear, and****
Imagine what the future will hold

The night will give way to dawn
I want to cry, but until the day my heart turns to ash as well,
I'll watch what I've pictured disappear, and****
Imagine what the future will hold

Imagine

LIPHLICH - Nekome no hakushaku Wendy ni koi o suru (english translation)

Was sorting through some of the half-finished translations on my computer and I found this.

The romaji for the parts in ~~ might not be accurate because those lines are not written in the kanji I was working from - I did them by ear from the video. I think they were added when they re-recorded the song, and the kanji is for the original version. If you think I heard it wrong, please don't hesitate to let me know. My listening comprehension is not so good. ^^;

I'm assuming that the setting is a circus like the one in Something Wicked This Way Comes, where normal people from town are somehow tricked into becoming the performers in the show.



猫目の伯爵ウェンディに恋をする / The Cat-Eyed Earl Falls in Love with Wendy

Lyrics: Shingo Kuga
Music: LIPHLICH

~In this bizarre world reflected in his cat eyes
What will your eyes witness from now on?~

The cat-eyed earl sticks out his tongue inquisitively from under those eyes
The circus tent has come to town from an eastern city
Won’t you take your feathered hat off for the beautiful Wendy?*
For today’s special feature, the IT president will jump through a ring of fire

Circus is coming soon
Circus is coming soon
Come with me

Catman walks on the street
Well then, won’t you come over here?
Catman walks on the street
Tonight as well, they’re going crazy

Take a look, Wendy
The celebrity who cherishes nothing but her face has fallen from the ball
And look up above, the artist has lost his footing on the tightrope
This looks like it’s gonna hurt
That shut-in kid has thrown a knife right into his teacher
He’s gotten good at that, hasn’t he?
The IT president that loves danger passes through the ring of fire

Circus is going on
Circus is going on
Come with me

Catman walks on the street
Please stop doing dangerous things!**
Catman walks on the street
When you look at it through my eyes, it’s ridiculous***
Catman walks on the street
If there are good things, there’ve gotta be bad things too
Catman walks on the street
Tonight as well, they’re going crazy

~Wendy, I wonder what kind of eyes you’re looking at me with now
Even if you’re already looking at me like that, it’s fine****
Wendy, I wonder what kind of eyes I’m looking at you with now
I can already only look at you like this~*****

Catman walks on the street
Wendy, where are you going?
Catman walks on the street
Why are you looking at me with those eyes?
Catman walks on the street
Are you really going to leave without saying anything?
Catman walks on the street
I guess it can’t be helped, since you’re just a human too…

Notes:
*, ***, ****, ***** Not too confident about these lines
**With a playful tone, like “Come oooon guys, cut it out! *wink*”

NOA - Nayuta (romaji only)

So I realized that I still suck at recognizing kanji while I was working on this... I did the romaji from a sort of blurry booklet scan, and it was an absolute nightmare trying to find some of the words. I had to play the song 2~3x slower to try to pick up the sounds. ^^;

なゆた / Nayuta

04 Limited Sazabys - Me? (english translation)

I'm not very confident about this one. It's a fairly simple song, but I feel like I'm missing the mark with at least a few of these lines.

Me?

Music and Lyrics: GEN

Oni-san, follow the sound of my clapping*
All the people around me are acting too familiar
Where are you from?**
I found you
All the people around me are confusing

It’d be nice to go to your city
After all, it’s not too far away
Undo your shackles
Shine a light down by your feet***
Thanks for giving me peace of mind

It’s hard to believe, isn’t it?
That I could be with you forever
But, but, but…

“Wo ai ni”**** wow
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
The two seconds when your eyes meet mine
They’re a huge challenge for me
I already can’t go back to how I was

“Wo ai ni” wow
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Your eyes meet mine for two seconds
But I immediately start feeling insecure
I can’t believe it

“Wo ai ni” wow
I need you
This is all your fault

Notes:
*”Oni-san kochira te no naru hou e” is a song that kids sing while playing blindfolded tag. The person who is “it” is blindfolded and the other kids clap their hands to try to lead them in the right direction
**Apparently “anta-gata doko sa” is also a song kids sing while playing. I’m not familiar with this game, but here’s a description of it: http://www.rabbitdays.com/#!anta-gata-doko-sa/cveq
***To light their way so the person doesn’t trip while walking in the dark
****Mandarin Chinese for “I love you”

Me?

Oni-san kochira te no naru hou e
Narenareshii hito bakkari da
Anta-gata doko sa
Kimi o mitsuketa
Magirawashii hito bakkari da

Iketara ii na kimi no machi made
Taishita kyori demo nai kara ne
Ashikase hazushi
Ashimoto o terashi
Anshin kurete arigato ne

Kantan ni shinjirarenai naa
Eien ni kimi to
Demo demo demo demo demo

Wo ai ni WOW
EENY, MEENY, MINY, MOE
Kimi no me ni me ga attara ni-byou da
Korya nandai mou modorenai

Wo ai ni WOW
EENY, MEENY, MINY, MOE
Kimi no me ni me ga attara ni-byou da
Demo totan ni fuan shinjirarenai

Wo ai ni WOW
I NEED YOU
Kimi no sei da yo
