Bored on the way to work and loving listening to this soundtrack, I decided to try and transcribe/translate 5th cast's ballad, Destiny. I really was iffy about this song the first time I heard it, but having a lot of memories associated with it now, it really is something special and I've come to really enjoy listening to it. Behind the cut are the lyrics and translation. Not for people without a tissue box at hand ;_;
Also, fyi GEEZ IT SOUNDS REALLY SLASHY. Like, seriously. come on, only SOME of them are sleeping together; the whole team isn't involved in one big orgy! Also also, I did this by ear XD; Because I didn't have the lyrics book with me. So, apologies for any mistakes :P
Maru de chigau tokoro de umareta orera ga
Kono basho de kyoudai no you ni
Hitotsu ni nareta
Omae wa omae de
Ore wa ore no mama
Tomadoinagara mo nakama ni natta
It's like we, who were born in different places,
Have managed to come together as one here, like brothers.
You're you, and I'm the same old me.
We became friends even while wandering confused.
[NOTE: This is as far as 1st cast sang in Dream Live 7th. The next verse was the first taken over by 5th cast ;____; Also, I completely didn't notice this for some reason, but Mitsuru reminded me: When 1st cast is singing their verse, they're walking across the stage and pause after taking up certain positions. A few words into 1st cast's singing this verse, 5th cast walk on...and take up the exact same positions, just on the upper platform, a perfect backdrop to 1st cast. Then the middle stairs part to reveal a doorway through which 1st cast falls back, and 5th cast come down the stairs to continue the song ;___;]
Onaji toki wo sugoshite
Amae ga sekinin to nari
Otagai wo tasukeau koto ya
Sasaeau koto wo mananda
Shukumei unmei soretomo hitsuzen
Omae no namida wa ore no kuyashisa
Omae ga ite kurete yokatta
Sharing the same time,
Our neediness became responsibility
And we learned things like helping each other along
And supporting one another.
Perhaps it was fate, or destiny--or maybe just inevitable.
Your tears became my own frustration.
I'm so glad you were there.
Ki ni iranai tokoro mo tsukiau aida ni
Kakegae no nai kosei to shite
Mitomete ita ne
Omae no ii toko warui toko subete
Wakatte iru no sa tomodachi dakara
While we were together,
I came to accept the parts of you that annoyed me
As an irreplaceable aspect of your individuality.
I understand all your good and bad points
Because we're friends
Tsunagaru yo kokoro ga musubiatteku omoi
Tabaneta omoide no kazu dake
Dekaku natteku musubime
Shukumei unmei soretomo hitsuzen
Omae no egao wa ore no yuuki sa
Omae to shiriaete saikou
We're all connected
Our hearts are emotions bound together.
And the sheer number of memories bundled together
Grows huge and forms a knot.
Perhaps it was fate, or destiny--or maybe just inevitable.
Your smile is my courage
It's great, having gotten to know you.
Ashita kara ore wa jibun no mezasu michi e
Omae ni hajimete senaka wo misete arukidasu
Kore kara mou tonari ni omae no sugata wa nai
Kagayaku egao wa shashin ni nokoseru kedo
Afureru omoi wa ima koko de
Omae ni tsutaeru shika nai
Sore wa arigatou arigatou arigatou
Starting tomorrow, I'll be on my own way
Walking for the first time with my back to you.
I won't have you beside me anymore.
And while your shining smile will remain in photos
I have to let you know my overflowing feelings
Right here and now.
And that is: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Onaji toki wo sugoshita kibishisa ni arigatou
Onaji toki wo sugoshita yasashisa ni arigatou
Onaji toki wo sugoshita kibishisa ni arigatou
Onaji toki wo sugoshita yasashisa ni arigatou
Arigatou x 7
Thank you for the harshness of sharing the same time together.
Thank you for the gentleness of sharing the same time together.
Thank you for the harshness of sharing the same time together.
Thank you for the gentleness of sharing the same time together.
Thank you (x 7)
I MEAN COME ON. "Walking for the first time with my back to you.
I won't have you beside me anymore.
And while your shining smile will remain in photos
I have to let you know my overflowing feelings"
?!?! IN WHAT CRAZY UNIVERSE IS THAT NOT ONE OF THE GAYEST THINGS YOU'VE EVER HEARD?? :PPPPPP
