This is actually the first BT song i've ever translated, but since it holds such a sentimental value for me - this was the song that introduced me to BT world - i've kept on polishing and polishing the translation.
Without managing to make it any better -_-'.
Very recently pseudoasphyxia has posted a stunning video of Abingdon Boys School performing live their ( Read more... )

Peaceful and painful, a glass-like frail perfect moment is about to be shattered.

螺旋虫
ガラス遊園地 二人花を摘む
紫空天鵝絨 一輪また一輪

回る観覧車 それは 螺旋虫
天国行きの列車 凍えた手をつなぐ

下弦の月 照らされた君の目の中
星が浮かぶ ガラス玉 笑ってた

嵐が来る予感に 胸は狂おしく
夜に迷う螺旋の 観覧車が揺れる

静かの海 滑り出す 君の目の中
星の消えた ガラス玉 笑ってた

嵐が来る予感に 胸は狂おしく
夜に迷う螺旋の 観覧車が揺れる
誰もいない辺りは 音の無い世界
夜に迷う螺旋の 観覧車が揺れる

ガラス遊園地 回る観覧車

I've been willing to translate this song ever since i heard it the first time...it turned out to be delisciously dirty.  Unfortunately it's still impossible to find any live footage of it on the Tube...

スズメバチ
ミリオンナイト 大衆の夜
カサノヴァ 女王蜂 Hip Hip Shake
アレは オマエのための行為
オレタチは ソレのタダのドレイ

逃げられない ほら やめられない
オレの体中 支配する
手玉だぜ Baby 真っ昼間
オレの耳 かすめる スズメバチ

Here's another translation I made some time ago. The insanity of its actual meaning crawled up to my brain and planted its seed there. Atsushi's haunting vibrato and the intense close up in the video made the rest.

I guess i'll just let myself drown in this dreamy imagery of sideral spaces and buddhist allusions...

ヒロイン
(おまえとひとつだ)
天国を探そう　天使達の星を
純白のヒロイン　限りない旅に出よう

(おまえとひとつだ)
何処までも飛べる　白い影を引いて
純白のヒロイン　終わらない旅に出よう

目を閉じて 目を閉じて 目を閉じて 目を閉じて

あなたの瞼に光る銀のしぶき
サソリと十字を抱いて夜の果てへ

(おまえとひとつだ)
蓮華の花びら　君が咲いた彼岸

サヨウナラ夢よ　ふたりなら飛べるはずさ
目を閉じて 目を閉じて 目を閉じて 目を閉じて

カルマの雲裂き走る銀のしぶき
流れるアクエリアス抱いて夜の果てへ

I remember that movie, "The Princess Bride", when the hero says something like "masks are really comfortable, everyone's gonna use them in the future". Mind you, he was a mysterious pirate and a charachter in a fantasy movie - therefore he was kind of bound to wear a mask - but there's still some wisdom in those words.
Maybe it's because only behind ( Read more... )

I've been longing to see live footage of this song ever since i heard it for the first time. Vampy one, i think, and kinda metal too. Let's be dyed in crimson!

真っ赤な夜
このまま 俺は夜になる 何も無い 夜と言う名前さ
このまま 俺は深くなる 果てしない 夜と愛し合うさ

お前の肌に触れるのさ 永遠が指を掠める

それでもいい 夜ならいい
俺にはそう, お似合いだろう
さあ真っ赤に染まるんだ

このまま 俺は雨になる 音も無い 雨と言う名前さ
このまま 俺は降り続く 終わらない 雨と愛し合うさ

お前の肌を濡らすのさ 永遠が零れ落ちてゆく

"Muchi" is literally "lack of knowledge", "ignorance". I chose to translate it as "innocence" since, sometimes, knowledge can cause one's fall from grace. I don't mean to quote the Bible here, but it's rather obvious that children who use weapons instead of toys will be robbed of their innocence a little too early.
A celluloid slow dance? I just ( Read more... )

Haven't been sleeping last night, and this song is stuck in my head  as my thoughts are once again flying around as a short lifed insect...

蜉蝣
薄紅乱れて真夏の夜の夢々飛び立つ蜉蝣恋焦がれる

眼に映るのが悪い夢なら目をつぶるのは悪い癖なの
ただ今だけは酔いしれていたラム酒の海に沈む太陽

狂おしい誰かの名前口ずさむ
なんて素敵だこの世は夢だあなたと夢で会える

薄紅乱れて真夏の夜の夢々飛び立つ蜉蝣恋焦がれる
あなたを想えば夢に夢に夢見る溢れる悦び永久に永久に

燃え尽きてゆく夢のかがり火波に煌めく命の残滓

狂おしい誰かの面影揺れている

The song that made it all begin. Usually i don't pay attention to animes' opening theme, especially when i watch more episodes in a row i skip it. But this song... i couldn't get rid of it, actually i didn't even try to get rid of it, it had been years since a voice could make me vibrate in unison.
