Translation of the song 月ノ唄 artist Kishow Taniyama
月ノ唄
The song of the Moon
僕にしか歌えないこの銀河中で一番
I’ll send you the “song that’s most like me” in the entire Milky Way
「僕らしい歌」をあなたへ
That no one but I can sing
人と何かが違う…?気づいたあの日
“Am I somewhat different from others…?” On the day I noticed that,
どうしようもない不安…飲み込んだ
I swallowed an overwhelming… Uneasiness
逃げこむように本音を言えなくて
In order to run away, I couldn’t say my real feelings
「大切なこと」さえも隠そう…と
And decided to hide even what’s ‘important’ to me
(Endless...Endless...Endless...)
(Endless…Endless…Endless…)
「僕ハ何者ナノ?」
“What exactly am I?”
(Endless...Endless...Endless...)
(Endless…Endless…Endless…)
自分に問いかけた日々
I asked myself day after day
運命はいつも
Fate is always
一人ぼっちの心へと残酷を与えて
Being cruel to my lonely heart
満月の綺麗な夜ふと気になったんだ
That beautiful night of full moon incidentally stayed in my mind
輝きがない裏側の
Darkness supports me
光を魅せようと支える闇
By enchanting me with the light of that shadowy other side
(With darkness)存在し合って
(With darkness) We can stay as one
(With lightness)一つでいられる
(With lightness) By existing together
愛も憎しみも 包めるような
I want the strength to embrace this weakness
弱さを抱ける 強さが欲しい
That lumps love and hatred together
「泣かせたくない」という一心で生まれ
Being born with an “I don’t want to make you cry” resolution,
いつも僕の後ろで守る影
That shadow always protects me from behind
「そのままずっと…らしく居ればいい」と
“You should just always be… yourself like that”
そんなふうに聴こえた…月の声
That’s what I heard… the voice of the moon saying
(Moonlight...Moonlight...Moonlight...)
(Moonlight…Moonlight…Moonlight…)
二度とは戻れない
It’s okay to cry over
(Moonlight...Moonlight...Moonlight...)
(Moonlight…Moonlight…Moonlight…)
過去に涙してもいい
A past that you can never return to
だからこそわかる
That’s why I know
煌めいてたあの日々の温もりが力に
That the warmth of those sparkling days will become my strength
失ったからわかるんだ…前へ進むこと
I know because I lost something… Both going forward
振り返ることの両方が
And looking back will
僕の人生への歌に変わる
Change into a song for my life
(With darkness)下を向いても
(With darkness) Even if I look down,
(With lightness)上を向けばいい
(With lightness) I should simply look up
未来の方へと 少しづつでも
If I can walk towards the future,
歩いてるなら それでいいんだ
Even if little by little, that’s enough
(I sing...I sing...)
(I sing…I sing…)
「もう大丈夫だよ」
“It’s all right now”
(We sing...We sing...We sing...)
(We sing…We sing…We sing…)
みんなが待ってくれてる
Everybody’s waiting for me
そしていつだって
And there are always
胸の中で咲き続け花開く想い出
Memories blooming and flowering inside my heart
僕にしか歌えないこの銀河中で一番
I’ll send you the “song that’s most like me” in the entire Milky Way
「僕らしい歌」をあなたへ
That no one but me can sing
全てを受け止めて強くなるよ
I’ll accept everything and become stronger
(With darkness)存在し合って
(With darkness) We can stay as one
(With lightness)一つでいられる
(With lightness) By existing together
砂のように消えた あの日が僕の
That day that disappeared like sand
中で生きてる 強さに変わる
Lives inside me and will turn into strength
月が見守る空を一緒に見上げて
Looking up together at the sky watched over by the moon,
あなたを愛すことを歌わせて…
Let me sing that I love you…
