Original / Romaji Lyrics | English Translation |
---|---|
shounen yo shinwa ni nare [2] | young boy, become the legend! [2] |
mune no DOA wo tataite mo watashi dake wo tada mitsumete hohoende'ru anata | knocking at the door to your heart, and yet you are merely gazing at me and smiling. |
motomeru koto ni muchuu de unmei sae mada shiranai itaike na hitomi | you're so intent on seeking it out, that you can't even see your fate yet, with such innocent eyes. |
sono senaka ni wa haruka mirai mezasu tame no hane ga aru koto | that what's on your back are wings that are for heading for the far-off future. |
madobe kara yagate tobitatsu hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de [3] omoide wo uragiru nara kono sora wo daite kagayaku [4] shounen yo shinwa ni nare | will soon take flight through the window, with surging, hot pathos, [3] if you betray your memories. Embracing this sky [universe] and shining, [4] young boy, become the legend! |
watashi no ai no yurikago anata dake ga yume no shisha ni yobareru asa ga kuru | in the cradle of my love The morning is coming when you alone will be called by a messenger of dreams. |
tsukiakari ga utsushite'ru sekai-juu no toki wo tomete tojikometai kedo | the nape of your slender neck. Stopping time all throughout the world I want to confine them, but... |
imi ga aru nara [6] watashi wa sou jiyuu wo shiru tame no BAIBURU [7] | has any meaning, [6] I think that it is a "bible" for learning freedom. [7] |
kanashimi ga soshite hajimaru dakishimeta inochi no katachi sono yume ni mezameta toki dare yori mo hikari wo hanatsu shounen yo shinwa ni nare | The sorrow then begins. You held tight to the form of life when you woke up from that dream. You shine brighter than anyone else. Young boy, become the legend! |
rekishi wo tsukuru megami nante narenai mama watashi wa ikiru | while weaving love. Even knowing I'll never be a goddess or anything like that, I live on. |
madobe kara yagate tobitatsu hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de omoide wo uragiru nara kono sora wo daite kagayaku shounen yo shinwa ni nare | will soon take flight through the window, with surging, hot pathos, if you betray your memories. Embracing this sky and shining, young boy, become the legend! |
[1] | "TE-ZE" is the Japanese spelling/pronunciation of "these," which is German for "thesis." |
[2] | The word "shinwa" actually means "myth" ("legend" would be "densetsu"), but I think it sounds better as "legend." |
[3] | "Atsui" (hot) can also mean "intense, passionate." "Pathos" is "the quality or power in life or art of evoking a feeling of pity or compassion; pity; suffering; sorrow." |
[4] | "Sora" (sky) is the reading given for the kanji for "uchuu" (universe). |
[5] | In some versions of this song, there is singing in this part. Unfortunately, I can't tell what they're singing (there's too much overlap). I think the last thing they sing could be "ai ga fusei," which can be roughly translated into "Love is a sin (wrongdoing)." If you have any idea what they're singing, please e-mail me. Arigatou! |
[6] | The kanji used for the "a" in "aeta" is not the normal kanji used in "au" (to meet). It's the first kanji in "ouse" (encounter, tryst) and has more of a connotation of meeting by fate or being brought together by fate, not just meeting. (Interestingly, a dictionary I have gives the meaning of "au," when written with this kanji, as "to meet (with drama or pathos)") |
[7] | The "watashi wa sou" is probably "watashi wa sou omou." And "bible" in this case isn't referring to *the* Bible. "Bible" can also mean "guide book, how-to book, a book valued for its use as a reference," like in "a handyman's bible," or "a bird-watcher's bible." |
