ARASHI - truth/Kaze no Mukou e single lyrics translations
rofl I messed up and accidentally posted OVER this entry. Here's "truth" with its coupling song "Kaze no Mukou e" (Beyond the Wind) and "SMILE"!!!!!!!
"truth" is an absolutely beautifully structured song. There's no way my English translation compares to it but I tried my best O_OV
Please do not post this elsewhere without my permission. Thank you.

ARASHI
yurari yureru hikari hitotsu itami iyasu koto naku kieru
“I take your life forever, you take my life forever”
hirari ochiru namida hitotsu omoi todoku koto naku kieru
“I take your life forever, you take my life”
--
One light, slowly wavering disappears without healing any pain
“I take your life forever, you take my life forever”
One tear, lightly falling disappears without reaching this feeling to you
"I take your life forever, you take my life"
tomaranai toki ni hisomu ai wa kitto furisosogu ame no you ni
(kobore ochita namida no ato kogoesouna namida no iro)
modorenai kioku meguru subete ubawareta kono yo no hate ni
--
Lurking in unstoppable times, love will surely pour like the rain
(the traces of the tears that spilled over and fell, the colour of the tears that seem to be freezing)
Irreturnable memories return to the ends of the world where everything was snatched away
kanashimi...
tatoe donna owari wo egaite mo kokoro wa nazomeite
sore wa maru de yami no you ni semaru shinjitsu
tatoe donna sekai wo egaite mo ashita wa mienakute
sore wa maru de yuri no you ni kegare wo shiranai
negai wa toumei na mama de
--
Sorrow...
Say no matter what kind of end I imagine, my heart is still wrapped in mysteries
like the darkness, that is just like the truth closing in
Say no matter what kind of world I imagine, I cannot see tomorrow
like the lily, it knows no impurity,
my wish remains true
shiroku somaru hana ni hitori nanimo kawaru koto naku chikau
“I take your life forever, you take my life”
--
I vowed to the flower dyed white without anything changing
“I take your life forever, you take my life”
todokanai koe ni nokoru ai wa sotto fukinukeru kaze no you ni
(kobore ochita namida no ato kakushikirenu futatsu no kao)
owaranai yoru ni nemuru yume no kizuato ni nokoshita itami
--
Left behind in my voice that won't reach you, love will softly skim along like the wind
(the traces of the tears that spilled over and fell, my two faces that I cannot hide)
Sleeping in this endless night The pain left behind in the scars of my dreams
kanashimi...
tatoe wazukana hikari umarete mo nageki wa kurikaesu
sore wa maru de uso no you ni kieru shinjitsu
tatoe saigo no hane wo hiraite mo sadame wa kaerarezu (1)
yuri no hana wa hakanage ni itami wa kienai
yume nara aishita mama de
--
Sorrow...
Say if even a small light is born my grief repeats
like a lie, that is just like the disappearing truth
Say if even my last wings spread open I am unable to change my fate
The lily flower is a fleeting pain that won't disappear
If this is a dream then I will still love you
kanashimi...
tatoe donna owari wo egaite mo kokoro wa nazomeite
sore wa maru de yami no you ni semaru shinjitsu
tatoe donna sekai wo egaite mo ashita wa mienakute
sore wa maru de yuri no you ni kegare wo shiranai

When the time comes when you'll look back somewhere
When the morning comes when I'll talk to you

There is a journey spreading out before my eyes (2)

--
For this self that I've always believed in
For everyone who has put together their dreams
For gratitude for my family
"I believe"
With simply all my worth
That impatience too will someday become nourishments
That pain too will become nourishments
Without losing to the rain, the wind, that pain or impatience
For this day
anata no bun no omoi mo daite
kaidan noboru you ue mukatte
tsurakute kurushikutatte taete
kansei abiru sugata egaite...

I embrace the feelings in your part too
As though climbing the stairs, heading up
It's painful It's difficult We put up with it
Imagine yourself bathing in cheers of joy

(1) This phrase sounds a little awkward in English but they mean the road (a metaphor for one's journey through life) that you have traveled up until now.
(2) So this image continues from the image in (1). Imagine yourself in the abandoned West where behind you is a long stretching road and before you is another road where you can continue your journey.
