Memories of Last Winter

The breeze of winter wind last year, I remember,
With discord and calamity they come to my front.
Through weep and woe, beside me they leave me never,
Even within the hail, the power I have to move on.

The cold of winter storm this year I must face,
Should be not as cold as last year it might be.
Crushing my heart, they leave me being alone,
Now being alone, even tiny breeze seems a freeze.

The Lament of Old Minister

O great man,
the one whom I see as king candidate,
you are in your way to build your own empire.

O great man,
my beloved acquaintance, friend, and family,
to walk through dangers, I give you my shoulders.

O great man,
who beloved and hailed by many people,
have you forgotten the days we walk together?

Forgot and being forgotten,
memories would decay after all.
The most important things,
constantly changing over time.

Intoxicated with woman, you forgot how to stand up for people.
Intoxicated with fame, you forgot how to not excluding people.
Intoxicated with money, you don't know anymore what is right or wrong.

O great man,
the one who is in the way to build an empire,
don't I have any value left in your eyes?

If I stay long enough,
could I prove that I'm wrong?
If I ever could turn back on time,
could I make everything to be alright?

The only comfort I could have right now,
is through this words of lamentation.

Memories of the Sky

The sky that embrace all things,
yet it support nothing,
neither supported by anything.

When I yearn for support,
I look into that vastness.
It let me fall and down,
yet it gives me room to support myself.

When I need to scream away,
I scream within that vastness.
It never gives me reply,
Yet it embraces my pain within echoing sound.

This taste, we taste it alone.
This feels, we feel it alone.
We're alone since our birth after all.
We're all alone under this sky.

Yet within this vast loneliness,
there is peace, there is bliss, there is love.

Zutto Kimi ni Soba de

Zutto Kimi ni Soba de
Throughout and Close to You
By : Masuda Yuki

From the waters of our love
Feelings we cannot express rise up
It suddenly becomes painful
When I hear your ever-present voice

In order not to make sadness bloom
In order not to kill love

Run away, run away, wherever you may go
Shaking, shaking, let your heart shake as it is
No matter what suffering comes
If I'm with you, I can overcome it

Wind the key of dreams
And see a person's sadness and strength
I'd give up anything to be
The person who can be with you that much

In order not to get lost in tomorrow
In order not to forget today

I cannot see the dark, dark path
Shine, shine, someday the light will shine brightly
I won't be afraid of anything
With you today, I'll smile

Run away, run away, wherever you may go
Shaking, shaking, let your heart shake as it is
No matter what suffering comes
If I'm with you, I can overcome it

Ichibyo no Refrain

Ichibyo no refrain
One Second of Refrainment
By : Otoha

There's glass art in my heart, that remains untangled
I only believe in you, the refrainment I feel

Used to walking to the station along that path
Taking out my umbrella on a rainy day
I gathered with my usual friends
Can't go back Can't go back, to the vending machine I leaned on

I can't find it anywhere, my heart can't be honest
I will keep looking for you, wherever you are in this world

There's glass art in my heart, that remains untangled
There's still no one who knows the true me
Lying and laughing, it was always lonely somewhere
I only believe in you, the refrainment I feel

A face I yearned for long ago
Someone who's trembling with sadness
Someday my friends will leave
I want to see you I want to see you, the person I admire

My precious feelings are already hidden deep in my heart
I will keep looking for you more than anyone else in this world

There's glass art in my heart, that remains untangled
I want to show you everything about the true me
Can you hear me? Can you not? My voice from far away
I only believe in you, the refrainment I feel

Friends and Enemies

You don't know who I used to be,
I don't know who you used to be.

Yet we met, we talk, and we walk.
Together, we known by others as friends.

Later, a little fault I found in you.

I wonder,
will we become friends, if we met on other time?
Meeting in the right time is a blessing...

You don't know who I used to be,
I don't know who you used to be.

Yet we met, we harm, we hurt.
Together, we known by others as enemies.

Later, a little kindness I found in you.

I wonder,
will we become friends, if we met on other time?
Meeting in the right time is a blessing...
