Beautiful

Lyrics: Kj
Music: Dragon Ash

Hitotsu to shite muda na itami na do nai sa
Futatsu to shite ima aru hikari wa konai sa
BEAUTIFUL

Sanzan na mezame okinuke hiraita me hare
Heya wa kansan samezame sodateta hane kaere hate
Tasogare ta jikan yousha nai akogareta mirai kou ja nai
Mado aketa mukou BOODAARAIN
Ikeru you na ikenai you na sonna LIFE
bokura waratte itai dake na no ni nazeka sasatte itai

Demo sukoshi ganbarou tte kimochi ga jyuujitsu wo
THAT’S A BEAUTIFUL

Saa kanadeyou hitori-hitori no MUSIC o
Saa sakaseyou itoshiki toki no jyuujitsu o

Donna ni korondatte ii kono sora ga yodonda tte ii sa

Hitotsu to shite muda na itami na do nai sa
Futatsu to shite ima aru hikari wa konai sa

blog translation: Takano Tetsu - April 24, 2012

For anyone who doesn't know, Ikuzo Baba = the bassist from Dragon Ash.
R.I.P. IKUZONE.

April 24, 2012

I suddenly heard the news that someone passed away.
But I guess hearing of someone’s death is always sudden.
Shit.

I often used to drink with Ikuzo Baba.
Even though he was an older guy, he was a loveable, kind, eccentric man.
When we met up in a bar after a few years, he suddenly hugged me from behind and surprised me.
I remember being happy that he knew about my work.
After that, we met up at the same place to drink often.
Now that I think about it, when Kashimoto and Moro left nil, the first call I made was to Baba-san’s cell.
And he said “I have Dragon Ash, so I can’t help you out, but if I find a good guy, I’ll let you know.”
I’m remembering things like that steadily.
I wonder if the last place we drank together at was 井の頭通り沿い.*
Or maybe it was when he called me at around four in the morning and, when I thought “What the hell does he want to talk about?”, it ended up being a silly conversation.
Ah, did we go drinking in Ikebukuro after that?
I wonder which one was the last one?
Which one. Was the last moment we spent together?

That’s so lonely, isn’t it?

Baba-san,
I’m planning to keep you waiting for about 40 years, but,
Because we’ll definitely go there too, wait for us, okay?
Let’s drink together again.

Takano Tetsu.

Notes:
*I don't know how to read this, but it's just the name of a place, so I don't think it really matters.

Dragon Ash - AMBITIOUS (romaji only)

I'd do more Dragon Ash, but rap lyrics are always so long. Luckily, this one is half English already.



AMBITIOUS

Lyrics: Kj
Music: Dragon Ash

YOU FEEL IT
SO VIVID
BELIEVE IT
THE WORLD IS YOURS NOW
YOU FEEL IT
SO VIVID
BELIEVE IT
THE WORLD IS IN YOUR HANDS
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
THERE’S A FIRE INSIDE YOUR EYES
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
THERE’S A FIGHTER INSIDE YOUR MIND

SO AMBITIOUS…

Nanimo motazu karappo na ryoute
Subete tsukande sonzai no shoumei

YOU FEEL IT
SO VIVID
BELIEVE IT
THE WORLD IS YOURS NOW
YOU FEEL IT
SO VIVID
BELIEVE IT
THE WORLD IS IN YOUR HANDS
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
THERE’S A FIRE INSIDE YOUR EYES
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
THERE’S A FIGHTER INSIDE YOUR MIND

SO AMBITIOUS…

Nanimo dekizu sukunde ita ashi de
Fumishime mae e susunde ike asu e

Yamikumo ni daiteta mirai o
Kono shunkan ima ni nurikaero
Sarakedashi
Azayaka de nashi
Aza darake de egaite koso kachi

AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!

HOWEVER DARK THIS NIGHT
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
EVEN IF IT’S WEAK LIGHT
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
THE DAYBREAK CAME INSIDE
NOW, DON’T GIVE UP THE FIGHT

SO AMBITIOUS

Nuguisare mune no hokorobi o
Tsumugi-dase mugen no yorokobi o
Itanda sono te
Kishinda sono ashi de
Egaita ima o nigirishime hashire

SO AMBITIOUS…

Nanimo miezu ni nijinde ita ryoume
Mitsumeru saki wa senmei na koukei

Yariba naku daiteta omoi o
Kono shunkan kono basho ni komero
Kurushindari ha o kuishibari
Jibun jishin de kachitotte koso sachi

AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!

HOWEVER DARK THIS NIGHT
AMBITIOUS!
SO AMBITIOUS!
EVEN IF IT’S WEAK LIGHT
