[Masterlist] Existing Translations of Official髭男dism (Official Hige Dandism) Songs

Hi! Gomen this took a long time, but it’s finally here! :))

This might not be *that* comprehensive yet; if I missed some, please do tell me so I can add it to this list. :)

Will add to the list if I find/know of other translations :)

Disclaimer: I don’t claim the translations linked here (unless the translation literally comes from this account/profile). Credits for the translations go to the respective owners of the links. I just compiled the links so we can have a centralized list of links to existing translations. :)

Also, if you do want to contribute to the collection of translations by making your own, please do so! The fandom will really appreciate them! Please don’t be shy - you can reach out to me here on Tumblr if you want me to include your translations here on this masterlist. :)

*Note: I know there are sooooooo many existing translations for Pretender, as well as for Higedan’s other famous songs, but I didn’t include links to those translations as there’s an official translation/English subs on Higedan’s YouTube page. Gomen! Or just tell me if you want me to include them here - I’m open to suggestions and comments! :)) Also, most translations linked here are in English; I’ll specify if there are translations in other languages. :D

It's my 5 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

5 years??!?! Crazy! How time flies 🥹

Thank you, everyone, for all your support for this blog 🫶 despite the very irregular updates, you're all still here (really surprised that people are actually following this account huhu i cry 🥹)

And most of all, thank you, Official Hige Dandism, for making awesome music and very thought-provoking lyrics. You are the real GOAT. 💖 ヒゲダン大好き！これからも応援し続きます！ 💖

#5 year tumblrversary #tumblr milestone

Hey there! I just wanted to say I recently found your blog and I'm super thankful for your masterlist of translations and your translation work. Thank you for all your efforts!

I was really happy to see people translating the non-single Rejoice songs. Get Back To Jinsei is one of my favorites from that album, and thank you for your tl of the lyrics. I just love how Finder smoothly transitions into it.

But yeah, I hope this isn't too random of an ask 😅

Hiiiii! Thank you so much for your kind words 🥹 it's not random at all! This made my day so much 🥺

I'm glad the blog is helpful in some way 🥹 that's the main reason this blog exists - it was to (try to) provide translations to Higedan songs, hoping that it'll reach people and make them appreciate their songs more. I really believe in Higedan's music and lyrics - they're such good storytellers. Also, they're very very relatable 🥹

Get Back to Jinsei also is my favorite from the album, that's why I really wanted to translate the song. I really want to translate the other Rejoice songs (and other untranslated songs) as well, but I can't find the time as I work during the day and too tired in the evenings most of the time 😭 but i'll try my best to finish them this year... or in the next... 🤣😭

Get Back to 人生 / Get Back to Jinsei / Get Back to Life

UGH THIS SONG WAS SO HARD TO TRANSLATE for realz T_T Aside from the many, many unfamiliar vocabs, I had to do a little bit of unlearning and learning, as well as reflecting (especially since this song is asking us to let loose and enjoy life without thinking of anything else). But with the many, many unfortunate events in my life recently, I really had a hard time getting into the "rejoice" mood.

Also so many comparisons made in this song which made it harder (and easier…in a way??) for me to translate (and understand the context) T_T

Anyhoo, as usual, may contain mistakes/inaccuracies.

セーブの効かないデータが消し飛びそうな脳を思いやったとこで別に大した容量もないみたいだシートで隠してヒートしそうな暗記の日々我慢の後で染みついた「答え」症気にしない方が難しいみたいだ

丁寧に修正ヘイトを浴びないように態度を正し過ぎてしまって「愛」も「嬌」も落っことしたみたいでもフェイスを上げてつんとした鼻の奥で世界は色付くミスりながら生きよう恥をかいてでもって思えるもの抱きしめて

ガールズビーがないとか揚げ足取りじゃ博識風情も貧相だ退けてメタな賛同の中で好きにだけ囲まれていて

躊躇ってたくない危機管理の悪いプレイヤーみたいな感じでOK フルコンプじゃなくたってノーダメージじゃなくたってもうクリア星やランクより欲しかったものはぶっ壊れそうなこの瞬間 Ah

Like a (computer that) deletes any unsaved data, My mind does the same with any unnecessary feelings, as if there's no more space for it After perservering through days of memorization, hidden behind sheets of papers (up until we overheat with exhaustion) It's now harder to ignore those answers that have been ingrained in us

(The inspirational phrase) "Boys, be ambitious!" has somewhat ended up with the mass production of robots* I can no longer endure this (robotic suffering); will I be (well) compensated for this? I just want to do what I want, even just for today

Like a complainant (at a bank, etc) making unreasonable and nonstop complaints, I feel unsatisfied, ok If someone's gonna pour grease on my painful neck and shoulders, as well as on my creaking and overworked heart, now's a good time The excitement that has been taken away from me, though immediately returned, was already way past its expiration date, right? Oh, yeah** For now, even for just a little while, even if it makes (some) people annoyed Let's release these voices from the deepest depths of our hearts and let it ring so loud (til it reaches 100 decibels) Let's get back to living life Up until the very end, in our own pace, (let's) get, get back, back to living Let's get back to living life

So as not to suffer from hatred, I tried my hardest to be careful and correct my attitude But it seems I've become too focused on being right, that I lost feelings of love and attraction But lift your face up - beyond such arrogance***, you'll see that the world's much more colorful Let's live life as we make mistakes, and fully embrace the shame (and other consequences that these mistakes) will bring to us

When one say that there's no such saying as "girls, be (ambitious)", it's just them nitpicking; it just shows their shallow understanding of things Don't listen to them - we only need approval from ourselves, so let's just surround ourselves with the things we like

I no longer want to hesitate, it's ok even if we seem like players who are bad at resolving a crisis Even if (the game's) not fully completed, nor we didn't achieve a flawless game More than wanting to clear this stage and ranking among the top players, what I really want to have Is this moment when we can break free

The dopamine makes me cry with happiness It also makes my whole being feel like wanting to leap with joy with you Without caring about what others may say Let's do whatever we want, please rejoice, let's get back to living life

The dopamine makes us cry with so much happiness, as if we've been (greatly) rewarded We can stop and do away with the formalities Let's just do whatever we want, please rejoice, let's get back to living life Up until the very end, in our own pace, (let's) get, get back, back to living Let's do whatever we want, please rejoice, let's get back to living life

T/N: *My interpretation for this line would be the slogan has been ~ruined~ because "robot-like people" has become the norm (for example: japanese salaryman, corporate slaves (*ehem*like me*ehem*), and the like), thus it seems that people are no longer aiming higher/ambitious with their dreams.

Additional context for the phrase:

Boys, be (ambitious) - a famous slogan in Japan (usually found in textbooks and posted around schools); said to have been shouted by William S. Clark to his students when he left Sapporo. The real origins of the quote are unclear, but it is said that the slogan/quote came from a longer message that reads: "Boys, be ambitious! Be ambitious not for money or for selfish aggrandizement, not for that evanescent thing which men call fame. Be ambitious for the attainment of all that a man ought to be.”

For more information about this, you may go and read the article on this link.

**Picture this - you have been looking forward for a trip (peak of excitement), but due to some circumstances, it was cancelled/postponed (excitement stolen). When the postponed date came, you no longer feel as excited as the previous time - it no longer feels the same (way past its expiration date)."

Huhu. I don't want all these to be over.

*Will probably be filled with mistakes. I tried my best, but my best just wasn't good enough for Satoshi's god-like lyrics. T_T

夕飯を食べきって　少し固いアイスを頬張って何が面白かったんだっけ? 思い出せもしない事の方が多いって月並みの悩みを手に入れたりなんかして虚しさなんてもう似合わないね

話題なんて過ぎ去ってしまうくらいが実は丁度良くて笑い合っていられた日々の向こうでまた笑おう

通り過ぎた日々を束ねながら眺めた写真の中変な顔ばっかしてたきっともう少し長居したらたらればばっかまた溢してしまうなまたほら浸り出してしまうな

世間は忙しくて次の何かを掘って建て出して何が昔はあったんだっけ？思い馳せもしなくなるならば歳などとりたくないそんな叫び声さえ残したままでいたい音も景色も味も匂いもちゃんとせめて心の中だけは

通り過ぎた日々を抱えたまま生きてく僕らはただ変な顔ばっかしてはちゃんと移ろう社会の最中たらればばっかまだ溢してしまうんだそんな面倒な心が宝物だったりするんだ

分厚い世界がやがて保存期限いつか迎え僕らを追い出してしまったとしても多分大抵困らないくらいでいいよ大抵忘れられるくらいがいいの

通り過ぎた日々を愛しながら生きてく僕らはただ変な顔ばっかしてはきっと振り返った時にまたバカばっかだったなぁそう言えりゃいいんだ今日からほらまたふざけ合ってきゃいいんだ失くしちゃなんないものはただ「続き」だけなんだ

As I finished eating and stuffing my face with an ice cream that's a little bit hard I tell myself "What was that funny thing again? There are (probably) more things that I can't remember" The emptiness I feel in saying things like "we all gain mundane problems" It no longer suits me

Just like how topic conversations comes and goes, reality passes by the same pace Beyond those days when we were able to laugh together, we will still continue to laugh

As the days pass by, the weird and funny faces we made remain in these pictures that we gazed at Surely, if we stay a little bit longer, we'll think and complain about the "what ifs" again Once again, we'll become too absorbed in them

This world is too busy digging and building the next new thing As I ask myself "what was this (place/building) before?", I immediately thought of what has been lost and what could have been Screaming "I don't want to grow old," hoping that it'll be enough for things to remain the same The sounds, the sceneries, the taste, the smell - surely, at the very least, these all will remain inside my heart

As we (desperately try to) hold on to the days that pass us by, we continue to live and make weird and funny faces Because in the midst of this ever-changing world, we'll still complain about the "what ifs" That's how such a troubled heart becomes a treasure

This massive world will end; someday, it'll reach its expiration date Even if, by then, we're driven out (of this world) Probably, it'll be ok, as long as it doesn't bother us as much; it'll be ok, as long as we can forget as much

As we continuously love each day that goes by, we continue to live and make weird and funny faces Surely, it would be nice if when we look back, we can only say how foolish we were again From now on, we can start doing foolish things together again The only thing that we must never lose is the "continuation" of our story

No words or long explanations for this. Just imagine this: Higedan and us in a concert venue. Them, giving their all in performing; us, clapping along, shouting, singing along to their songs. Yes, it's really time to rejoice. Okaeri, Higedan.

例えようのない震えと高揚渇いた唇が砂漠に降る雨の要領で潤う孤独と我慢の日々は終わった僕らの未来がまたここから始まる

再び出会えた呼吸の証を見せて比べるまでもないほど隔たる物のない世界で再びの先には何が待ってるんだろうか？そんな事今はもう知ろうとしなくて良い

待ち受け合って手を打ち合って歌い出す時溶かす問い悲しみも戸惑いも掻き消える時癒える時沈黙の向こう側部屋を発つ時放つと良いざわめき出し渦巻き出した現在地 It's time to "Rejoice"

Tatoe you no nai furue to kouyou Kawaita kuchibiru ga sabaku ni furu ame no youryou de uruou Kodoku to gaman no hibi wa owatta Bokura no mirai ga mata koko kara hajimaru

Futatabi deaeta kokyuu no akashi wo misete Kuraberu made mo nai hodo hedataru mono no nai sekai de Futatabi no saki ni wa nani ga matterundarou ka? Sonna koto ima wa mou shirou to shinakute ii

Machiukeatte te wo uchiatte utaidasu toki tokasu toi Kanashimi mo tomadoi mo kakikieru toki ieru toki Chinmoku no mukougawa heya wo tatsu toki hanatsu to ii Zawamekidashi uzumakidashita genzaichi It's time to rejoice

An excitement that makes you tremble beyond compare These dry lips moistened like pouring rain in the desert Those days of darkness and restraint are (finally) over From now on, our future starts again

When we meet again in the future, show me proof that you lived In a world where you don't need to compare, or distances doesn't exist I wonder what awaits us in the future It'll be fine, we don't have to know right now

As we wait, clap our hands, and sing out, the questions (slowly) disappear When the sadness and confusion fade away, it's become a time of healing Beyond the silence, as we're leaving our rooms, it's ok to let go The buzzes and whirs have started, everyone's now here It's time to rejoice

Rolling

Woooo finally all songs in the Report album are finally translated! :))

ねえミッドナイト、憂鬱を晴らしたいんだ暴力ばっかの幼稚な行為はもう要らないんだ少しは察してよ

ねえミッドナイト、随分と我慢したもんさ面と向かって文句ひとつ言えないままで落ちて落ちて落ちて落ちていくんだよ

もうキャパオーバー！

ああ皆Rolling and shout in the midnight 振り切れない片目のヘッドライトうだる暗闇のど真ん中で Rolling and shout in the midnight 知らんふりでどこ吹く風のミッドナイトミッドナイト

Rolling and shout in the midnight 振り切れない片目のヘッドライトうだる暗闇のど真ん中で Rolling and shout in the midnight 逃げられない　待つしかない Rolling and shout in the midnight

学園通りの街灯　酔いどれのサーチライト浮かぶ逃走劇とその焦燥感の残像と涙まじりのタイムラインにも静かな狂気が　不条理が　溢れている Rolling and shout in the midnight 誰もが待ち焦がれるヒッタイト夜明けをもたらし得るヒーロー Help me Help me Help me Help me

Rolling and shout in the midnight 振り切れない片目のヘッドライトうだる暗闇のど真ん中で Rolling and shout in the midnight 逃げられない　待つしかないバチ振り回すミッドナイト逃げられない　待つしかない Rolling and shout in the midnight

Hey, midnight, I want this sadness to disappear I no longer need (more of) this violence-filled childish behavior Have some sympathy for me, even for just a bit

Hey, midnight, I really really tried my best To not complain and say even one thing when I'm face to face with someone (But I feel like) I'm struggling, I'm failing, I'm falling down

I can't take it anymore/I'm over my limit!

Aa everyone's rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight An unavoidable one-eyed headlight (That light) burns through the darkness Rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight Pretending not to know where the midnight wind blows Midnight

Rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight An unavoidable one-eyed headlight (That light) burns through the darkness Rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight I can't run away, all I can do is wait Rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight

The streetlights along the campus (acts like a) searchlight for the drunk people Feeling so frustrated as if they're (being chased) in a escape drama A timeline mixed with lots of tears A silent madness, the absurdity of it all - they all overflow Rolling and shout(ing) in the midnight (like) A Hittite longing for someone* A hero that can bring in the dawn Help me Help me Help me Help me

T/N *This concept is hard to explain - suddenly needed to read historical articles just to get the context for this :)) But I guess in simple terms, these two lines just pertains to a person seeking help from a higher being during their most trying times (i.e. God/s). Just read this if you want additional context.

恋の去り際 / Koi no Sarigiwa / When the Love is Gone

OH GOD WHY DID I TRANSLATE THIS I AM NOW SAD AGAIN :((((((((( IT SHOULD BE A CRIME FOR UPBEAT SONGS TO HAVE SAD LYRICS I DID NOT EXPECT THIS AT ALL :((((((((( (also SATOCCHAN WHO HURT YOU THIS MUCH)

I don't want to say anything just... read the lyrics... and then let's cry together :((((((

思い悩み真夜中に飛び出した冷たい風に吹かれながら点滅信号を見上げた

耳を澄ましても君の声は聞こえない車から漏れたヒップホップがサイレンみたいに過ぎてく

もう忘れたいんだあの瞬間真っ白な光に照らし出されたねえあの時君はどんな思いで傍にいたの

あんなに好きだと言い合って頬をくっつけ笑って撮った写真にもこっそり写り込んでいた悲しい恋の去り際君から貰った幸せの全てが目から心から音も無く消えたまだ信じられないまま

遠くでぼやけた赤黄色の光思い出だらけのこの街は眩しすぎて目を閉じた

認めたくないんだ辛いんだ報われることのない脇役のようにただ傷つくこと以外に何一つ出来ずに

壊れてしまった最愛の毎日は欠片が刺さって本当に痛かったもう二度と戻らない終わりなんだと知った貰った手紙は読み返せないくせに大事にしまって捨てられないままいつかは忘れられたら

あんなに好きだと言い合って頬をくっつけ笑って撮った写真にもこっそり映り込んでいた悲しい恋の去り際君から貰った幸せをいつかは全部消して忘れてそれ以上の幸せをきっと見つけるから

Omoi nayami mayonaka ni tobidashita Tsumetai kaze ni fukare nagara tenmetsu shingou wo miageta

Mimi wo sumashitemo kimi no koe wa kikoenai Kuruma kara moreta hippuhoppu ga sairen mitai ni sugiteku

Anna ni suki da to ii atte Hoho wo kuttsuke waratte totta shashin ni mo Kossori utsuri kondeita kanashii koi no sarigiwa Kimi kara moratta shiawase no subete ga Me kara kokoro kara oto mo naku kieta Mada shinjirarenai mama

Tooku de boyaketa aka kiiro no hikari Omoide darake no kono machi wa mabushi sugite me wo tojita

Mitometakunainda tsurainda Mukuwareru koto no nai wakiyaku no you ni Tada kizutsuku koto igai ni nani hitotsu dekizu ni

With troubled thoughts, I ran out in the middle of the night As the cold wind blows, I looked up at the blinking traffic lights

Even though I've been listening carefully, I can't hear your voice The hiphop sound coming from a car passes by like a siren

I just want to forget that moment That one moment illuminated by a bright white light Hey, during those times, what kind of feeling did you have while I was beside you?

Suddenly the sadness (caused by) love leaving appeared, as if it's been there hidden for a long time Even in that picture we took where we told each other "I love you this much" While we were cheek to cheek, happily laughing All the happiness you gave me Disappeared from my eyes and my heart without any sound Until now, I still can't believe it

The red and yellow lights blur at a distance This town, filled with memories of you, shines too bright - I closed my eyes

I don't want to accept it, it hurts I feel like I'm just a supporting character who can't take revenge I can't do anything more but to just feel the pain

It really hurts so much to be pierced by (the reality of) each day that you're not here, my beloved

I can no longer go back to it one more time, I know this is the end Although I will no longer reread the letters you gave me I'll just keep them away - I won't be able to throw them just like that Someday, I will be able to forget

Even in that picture we took where we told each other "I love you this much" While we were cheek to cheek, happily laughing That (picture) secretly reflects the sadness caused by our love leaving Someday, all the happiness that you gave me will disappear and will be forgotten Because surely, I'll be able to find even more happiness than what we had

破顔 / Hagan / A Wide Smile

*reposted because I hated the formatting in the previous version of this post HAHA

Ahhhhh this was really tricky to translate as this song was full of metaphors (classic Satocchan). But even though it hurt my brain so much, I pushed through as I believe this is one of their best songs - I feel like it’s a love letter of some sort to their fans/supporters for being their light, and because they received so much love and support (light) from them, they will do their best to pass on that light to others through their music.

Anyway, hope this post and this song will make you smile widely, too :)

帰り道のライト　何らかの合図を　無機質に放つビルたちの名前は知らんよ　でもありがとう　開いてく心の搬入口

暖かな窓　カーテンの奥を　推し量ることは野暮だけど幸せ願うよ　暮らしのサインを　くれた顔も知らぬ仲間たち

あなたが居るなら人生は今日も平和だ

到底僕じゃ払えもしないような　深い闇さえもぼやかしてしまう街の誰そ彼の人生の　無数の美しさに途方に暮れる

ため息をつくと　止めてよってちょっと　叱ってくるおかしな奴がいる言葉ではないよ　点滅のレッド　泳ぐ四輪二輪魚の群れ

眺めてた僕の荷物は笑みへと変わった

到底ひとりじゃ作れもしないような　愛着の湧くシワのひとつひとつ君のあなたのお前たちの　その頼もしさに途方に暮れる

消えてくライト　静けさと共に　灯り出すライト　代わる代わる訪れる夜を　生き抜くための大事な光を宿してる誰も　届いてるちゃんと　ちゃんと　ちゃんと

到底僕じゃ払えもしないような　深い闇さえもぼやかしてしまう街の誰そ彼の人生の　無数の美しさに途方に暮れる

きっと僕らは受け取ってしまう　色んな恐怖も色んな悲しみもそれを背負ったもの同士だからこそ　互いを照らし合っては笑う

全てのライト　おやすみありがとう　届いてるちゃんと　ちゃんと

The lights on the way home, being emitted by those cold, lifeless buildings, serves as some sort of signal I may not know their names, but I'm thankful, (since) they opened up the (service) entrance to their hearts

Although it's dumb to guess who or what’s behind these curtains and warm windows I wish these friends, who have been giving me signs to live, happiness, even though I don't know their faces

As long as you're here, this life, as well as the present, will be peaceful

I am in awe of the beauty of the countless stars (scattered across) the vast twilight sky in this city* A darkness so deep that it's impossible to clear it up no matter how much I try - even if I do try, it'll just be blurry at best

As I breathed a sigh, I stopped for a while; a weird guy scolds at someone Without any words, the red lights blinked; the four-wheeled and two wheeled vehicles moving like a school of fishes (also begin to stop)

I watched as my baggages turned into smiles

I am left in awe of the kindness of each and every one of you** That even if one doesn't make an effort to make connections, one by one, those feelings (of affection) eventually reach me, like a ripple

The lights come on and then disappear with the silence, they change, one after the other That precious light that keeps us alive during the nights that (always) come I'll carry it with me and make sure it reaches someone, for sure, I'll make sure of that

I am in awe of the beauty of the countless stars (scattered across) the vast twilight sky in this city A darkness so deep that it's impossible to clear it up no matter how much I try - even if I do try, it'll just be blurry at best

Surely, we'll have to accept everything - even the (various) fears and sadness It is exactly because we go through all these things together that we can shine and laugh at these together

The lights, as well as the good night and thank you's - I'll make sure they reach someone, for sure

T/N

"*OH GOD HOW DO I EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN THESE TWO LINES IT WAS SO HARD TO TRANSLATE BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE WHATEVER TRANSLATION I MAKE IT WILL NOT DO THE LINES JUSTICE :(( I WILL ALWAYS BE AMAZED OF HOW SATOCCHAN IS A GENIUS WITH WORDS. Tasogare, with the kanji he used in the lyrics, would mean "who is that?". This is actually an old adage/old way of referring to unknown people. In recent times, ""tasogare"" (with the kanji 黄昏) means "twilight", which, actually comes from the old meaning of tasogare. If you look at the lyrics, you will see that both meanings of tasogare work with the context of the song = it may mean that he is completely overwhelmed by the beauty of the lives of the immeasurable number of people he's never known in town (as immeasurable as the stars in the twilight sky). The people interpretation will also work with the song as it can be used as reference for the second chorus (kimi no anata no omaetachi no)."

"**Kimi no, anata no, omaetachi no - kimi, anata, and omae all mean ""you"" when translated into english, but the differences in these lie in the degree of closeness the speaker has with the other party being pertained to. Kimi is more casual and can refer to friends, family, and loved ones, anata to other people one knows (acquaintances, etc; but can also be used with people you have a very close relationship with, especially since anata is sometimes used between husband and wife), and omaetachi to those you don't have a personal relationship with."

愛なんだが。。。/ Ai nanda ga... / It's Love, but...

鳥がさえずるE♭くらいのトーンが心地よい朝月曜のメランコリが注ぐコーヒーがそそるコントラスト

無機質なアラームが響けば整った文字の裏に隠れた不機嫌そうな顔をしてる君が思っても見なかった言葉を僕にぶつけたんだ

「どうせ愛なんか　信じられたもんじゃないから熱したら焦げて不味くなってしまうから苦しい思いなんかしたって得しないからもう愛なんて要らない、一人で生きてたい」　って

歩みの早い君に合わせて走ってなんとかついてきたけど「疲れた？」なんて気を遣わせていたことに気付かなくてでも、「バイバイ」なんてこう面と向かって言われるなんて思ってなくて「最愛」なんて　堅い難い言葉で　縛ってなんとか　繋ぎ留めた気でいただけそんな頭の固い僕に　あと一度だけ悪あがきをさせて

どうせ愛なんてさ　言わなくても通じてるからそう信じて今まで歩いてきたんだが不安にさせていたんなら　不満が溜まってたなら僕が変わっていくから　もう一度だけだって　二人の間から　生まれてきた愛だからそれが続くことが生きがいになっていたから悲しい思いなんか　もう絶対にさせないから「もう愛なんて要らない　一人でいい」なんて言わせないと誓うよ「バイバイ」なんてもう言わせない

A morning filled with the pleasant, warm tunes of love sung by birds* In contrast, I'm having a melancholy-filled Monday, being energized by coffee

As the robotic alarm rings Hiding behind characters strategically placed (beside each other) Is your face, seemingly displeased Just with your words (though unseen and only felt), you hit me

You said "I don't believe in love anyway (Because) if things heat up, it burns and becomes completely unpleasant (Because) there's no benefit in feeling pain I no longer need love, I want to live by myself"

I run and do everything I can just to try to keep up with your fast-paced walk, but You didn't even realize I was asking you "are you tired?" However, I never thought someone could tell me "goodbye" so directly to my face (or that) I could be bound by such difficult but honest words such as "beloved" Somehow, I thought I managed to hold it all together With this hard-headedness of mine, please let me try (to resist) one more time

After all, because even if I don't declare my love out loud, it's already a given That's what I've belived in until today when I came here If I made you feel anxious, or if you feel unhappy with me I'll change, so please, just one more Because the love that was born between us That's the thing that kept me going, because it has become my life's purpose I swear I won't let you feel sad again "I no longer need love, I'm fine alone" I swear, I won't let you say that again Please don't say "goodbye" again

T/N

*lmao initially translated this line word for word BUT thought of searching for "E flat mood music" and actually found that E♭ is usually associated with or is referred to as the key (signature) of love (warm, mellow) so worded the line this way :))

It's my 4 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

Say what now? Hahahaha

Can't believe this blog actually reached its 4th year 🤣 there were moments (actually so many moments H A H A) I did contemplate on deleting this blog together with my Twitter account - I was getting tired of so many things, started losing interest for a time, and got more anxious and unconfident of what TF I'm doing (thinking I shouldn't be doing this kind of thing as I'm not qualified, i.e. i dont study the language consistently, don't have a proper level of knowledge of the language, etc.). Well the twt account's gone, but this blog still remained. Idk why I didn't actually delete this but well, maybe it's still serving its purpose (maybe... hopefully... 🤣)

But well,

To all I've met and interacted with,

To all who're still here waiting for updates (I'm so sorry for the lack of updates work's such a jealous beech it doesnt let me do hobbies 😭),

To all who've come and gone,

To all who believes/believed in me,

To all who helped me, may it be big or small,

Thank you so much 💖

And of course, this blog won't even exist if not for our best boys, whom I love so much and so dearly- thank you, Official Hige Dandism. Thank you for the wonderful music, for the songs that have saved me countless times from so many things. You're not only one, but the most important reason I wanted to become better (especially at relearning Japanese). Words will never be enough to express my gratitude to you, my dear Higedan. 💖

(Hopefully) to more years! 🥳

Trailer

In today's episode of "I have so many work-related things to do but I chose to do another task that's outside of work" aka Rain's Procrastination Diaries (lmao) (can also be known as "Rain's excuse to not open her textbooks and study for the upcoming JLPT"), I decided to translate this song.

Idk if it's just me (yes Rain it's definitely just you) but this feels... morbid af. While I was translating this, I got the feeling that the speaker was just waiting for *his time*, the end of his life (as referenced by "the last page", and also the last line of the song, "Tonight, (if) I can close my eyes."

But well, I also realized that it doesn't have to be that morbid. It could be a song for a point in time before someone moves forward, like closing another chapter of one's life. But idk I still go back to my first feeling HAHA. If you wanna share your thoughts about the song please do!!

God this album really is such a trip. This is definitely one of the many reasons why I love Report so much as it made me think so much while I translated the songs in this album (Hajimari no Asa, Inu ka Kyatto ka, Equal (GAH EQUAL I LOVE EQUAL SO MUCH IT HURTS), Trailer; planning to translate Rolling next...probably next year HAHA jk) ;__;

Anyhoo, as usual, this may not be that accurate as I am *still* studying Japanese (whew when will this ever end??? NEVER). Translation may contain mistakes and inconsistencies, so I apologize in advance.

僕は待ってる　僕は待ってる　滑り台の上、腰掛けて待ってる月が笑ってる　街は眠ってる　払えば飛んで行く埃みたいな風景僕は待ってる　僕は待ってる　そこはかとない暮らしで暇を潰して待ってる何もないなら　異論はないかな　それでも気付けば運命を憂えてる

最後のページを読み終えたら次はどこに行こうかな？間違って間違って間違って間違ってもいいどんな孤独よりもマシさ

僕は待ってる　僕は待ってる　2号館の屋上で酔いを回して待ってる紺碧のカーテンが　鉄塔の向こうから　ゆっくりぼんやり開くのを見ている

ここで待ってる

最後のページを読み終えたら次はどこに行こうかな？間違って間違って間違って間違ってもいい　どんな孤独よりもマシ

I wait and wait - while sitting on top of the slide, I wait The moon smiles, the town sleeps, a scenery that seems like dust flying away (while cleaning) I wait and wait, with this vague lifestyle, I kill time and wait If there's nothing more, will there be no objections? And yet when I realize it, I worry about my destiny

When I finish reading the last page, where do I go next? Even if I get it wrong again and again, it's fine It's much better than any kind of loneliness

I wait and wait - on the rooftop of Bldg. no. 2, I wait as intoxication surrounds me I watch as the deep blue curtains slowly and fainly opens from behind the steel tower

I'll wait here

When I finish reading the last page, where do I go next? Even if I get it wrong again and again, that's fine; that's so much better than any kind of loneliness

This last page's reached so far; next time, I'll make the next (book) thicker It'll be fine - even if I get it wrong again and again; tonight, I can close my eyes Tonight, I can close my eyes

Thought of translating this because it's currently raining where I am right now. Also, because I need an excuse that I did my exercises today. HAHA.

優しい風が連れてきた蒸し暑くて騒がしい季節道路のくぼんだとこ溜まった雨がざわめく

君はまるで子供みたいだ踏んづけて散らかす水溜まりこの靴は濡れないので嬉しそうにこっち向くんだ

曇った天気は嫌いなんて言いながらまんざらでも無さそうな顔をしてるけどそれが好き

出かける時はいつも BGMに雨音嬉しそうにリズムをとる繋いだ手と手この曲が終わるまで 2人は1つ傘の下リズムに合わせて行き先も決めず歩こう雨が奏でた僕らの歌いつまでも

曇った天気の中に光りがさすだけど傘は閉じないでこのままひっついて歩こう

出かける時はいつもその靴でいてほしいんだよとても似合ってるそんな顔せず笑ってみせてこの曲が終わるまで 2人は1つ傘の下リズムに合わせて行き先も決めず歩こう雨が奏でた僕らの歌いつまでも

Yasashii kaze ga tsuretekita Mushi atsukute sawagashii kisetsu Dooro no kubonda toko Tamatta ame ga zawameku

Kimi wa maru de kodomo mitai da Fundzukete chirakasu mizutamari Kono kutsu wa nurenai node Ureshisou ni kocchi mukunda

Kumotta tenki wa Kirai nante iinagara Manzara demo nasasou na kao wo shiteru kedo Sore ga suki

Dekakeru toki wa itsumo BGM ni ameoto Ureshisou ni rizumu wo toru Tsunaida te to te Kono kyoku ga owaru made Futari wa hitotsu kasa no shita Rizumu ni awasete Iki saki mo kimezu arukou Ame ga kanadeta bokura no uta Itsumademo

Kumotta tenki no naka ni akari ga sasu Dakedo kasa wa tojinai de Kono mama hittsuite arukou

Dekakeru toki wa itsumo Sono kutsu de ite hoshiinda yo Totemo niatteru Sonna kao sezu Waratte misete Kono kyoku ga owaru made Futari wa hitotsu kasa no shita Rizumu ni awasete Iki saki mo kimezu arukou Ame ga kanadeta bokura no uta Itsumademo

Along with the gentle breeze Comes a humid and noisy season Along the curved highway The rain that gathered noisily rustles

Just like a child, You jump into the puddle and make a mess You happily turn to me (and say) "These shoes don't get wet"

Even while you say "I don't like the cloudy weather" Your face shows that you're not much bothered by it I love that (from you)

Whenever we go outside The sound of the rain becomes our background music We take in its happy rhythm As we held hands Until this song ends Let's stay under (this) one umbrella Together with the rhythm Let's walk without deciding where to go As the rain plays our song Forever

A ray of light shines through the cloudy weather But please, don't close the umbrella yet Let's continue to walk closely together like this

Whenever we go out, I want you to always wear those shoes Those really suit you Please don't make that face Please show me your smile Until this song ends Let's stay under (this) one umbrella Together with the rhythm Let's walk without deciding where to go As the rain (continues to) plays our song Forever

Raise your hands and clap clap the negative thoughts away Let's put an end to it Let's clap clap to the best moments of our lives Don't judge things without basis, come on, just clap clap There's still more to come, right?

We just can't keep only picking up the pebbles that makes us trip (Because) sooner or later we won't be able to hold it all, right? So let's open our hands and leave them all here As well as all the tough traumas that we have - let's drive them all away

Clap clap clap, put your hands together! Clap away the sadness! Don't just stand there while saying things like "there's no reward in this" Clap clap clap, wake up! (Let's) get out of this boredom! Open your eyes and (you'll) surely see how beautiful this world is

Raise your hands (and) clap clap the inferiority complex away Let's put an end to it, too To the perfectionists, clap along to the sound of your footsteps There's still more to come, right?

As we continue searching and saying "This is not enough!" Even if you lose against your ideal self, it'll be fine

Clap clap clap, put your hands together! Clap away the sadness! Don't just stand there while say "there's no reward in this" Clap clap clap, wake up! (Let's) get out of this boredom! Don't dampen the sounds around you - let it ring!

Clap clap clap, put your hands together! Clap away the sadness! Don't just stand there while saying things like "there's no reward in this" Clap clap clap, wake up! (Let's) get out of this boredom! It's because you're always here beside me like this that I can be full of pride

Clap clap clap, put your hands together! Clap away the sadness!

笑顔の待つ場所 / Egao no Matsu Basho / The place Where a Smile Waits

*Not officially released. This song was used as the theme song for Sanin Chuo TV's 45th Anniversary.

I still wish we got an official release for this song huhu one of their songs that I really like because it's so cute :')

As usual, I don't claim that this is a very accurate translation (I might have lost my touch as well as my knowledge... I haven't translated anything in the past few months... haaaay adulting so hard ;__; also just started translating this last night so... HAHA). But I tried my best :))

ありがとう変わらない　あなたの笑顔が僕の背中押すから　これからも歩いていけるんだ

いつまで経っても消えない思い出夕日と雨雲とそれを眺めるシルエットどれが欠けてもつまらない味気ないあなたとこの空が　合わさって街を彩る

水は絶え間なく流れ歴史は上書きされるその中でも残るもの明日の自分もそうあれたら

ありがとう変わらない　あなたの笑顔がここで待っていること　当たり前ではないからいくつ歳をとっても繋がった心が僕の背中押すからこ　れからも歩いていけるんだ

いつまで経っても消えない温もりあなたとこの空が今もこの胸に宿ってる

時は淡泊に流れ　恋しさに涙が溢れ居場所をなくしてしまっても帰れる場所はここにあるから

ありがとう変わらない　あなたの笑顔がここで待っていること　たまらなく嬉しいよいくつ歳をとっても繋がった心が僕に自信をくれるから　顔をあげ新しい明日へ

（さあドアを開いて　新しい明日へ　飛び出そう　今すぐ）

Arigatou kawaranai anata no egao ga Boku no senaka osu kara kore kara mo aruite ikerunda

Itsumade tattemo kienai omoide Yuuhi to amagumo to sore wo nagameru shiruetto Dore ga kaketemo tsumaranai ajikenai Anata to kono sora ga awasatte machi wo irodoru

Thank you for your never-changing smile I can continue to walk forward because (I know) you have my back

No matter how much time passes, these memories won't disappear The setting sun, the rain clouds, and those silhouettes we've seen If any of those is missing, (those memories) become boring and meaningless Those skies (days) with you - all of these combine together and paint up this town

As the waters flows constantly, and as history keeps on changing In the midst of it all, something remains; it seems that our future is in there

Thank you for your never-changing smile Because you're there waiting, I won't take it for granted No matter how old we get, our hearts are always connected I can continue to walk forward because I know you have my back

No matter how much time passes, this warmth won't disappear Even now, those skies (days) with you remain in this heart of mine

As time flows indifferently, the longing turns into overflowing tears Even if our place in this world suddenly disappears (It's okay) Because we have this place we can return to

Thank you for your never-changing smile I'm tremendously happy (because) you're waiting here No matter how old we get, our hearts are always connected I can proudly face a new tomorrow because of the confidence you've given me

(Well, let's open the door and leap towards a new tomorrow, right away)

されど日々は / Saredo Hibi wa / (However) The Days are

A long overdue translation. Someone requested me to do this translation a long time ago but idk why it took me this long to actually publish this (well, actually one major reason is because the first file where my translations were became corrupted and I became lazy to retranslate HAHA).

Again, not claiming that this is an accurate translation. There may be errors/inconsistencies/mistranslations in this. If there is any mistake, please do tell me so I can learn from them too and can make the necessary corrections.

昨日から続く両足の痛みを笑ってられるのは壊れて元通りになることを知ってるから欠かさず持っていた小さなガラスを割ってしまっても不機嫌になりながら代わりを頼めばいいだけなんだ

これから先失うものばかり増えて行くんだろう体の軋んだその音さえ愛していけたら

されど日々は今日も僕をまたひとつ疲れさせて生きてく意味　愛の形　少しずつ壊していく

心が食べきれずに残した不安はいつの間にか膨れて希望も何もかも飲み込んでしまってた　Ah

これから先悲しい事ばかり増えていくとしても感情のネジは錆び付いてて涙も流れない

だけど僕はまだ少しだけ時計に抗って生きてる

されど日々は今日も僕を　またひとつ疲れさせて生きてく意味　愛の形　少しずつ壊していく

Kinou kara tsudzuku ryouashi no itami wo waratterareru no wa Kowarete motodoori ni naru koto wo shitteru kara Kakasazu motteita chiisana garasu wo watte shimattemo Fukigen ni narinagara kawari wo tanomeba ii dake nanda

Kore kara saki ushinau mono bakari fuete ikundarou Karada no kishinda sono oto sae aishite iketara

Saredo hibi wa kyou mo boku wo mata hitotsu tsukare sasete Ikiteku imi ai no katachi sukoshi zutsu kowashiteiku

Kokoro ga tabekirezu ni nokoshita fuan wa itsu no ma ni ka Fukurete kibou mo nanimo kamo nomikonde shimatteta ah

Kore kara saki kanashii koto bakari fueteiku toshitemo Kanjou no neji wa sabitsuitete namida mo nagarenai

Dakedo boku wa mada sukoshi dake tokei ni aragatte ikiteru

Saredo hibi wa kyou mo boku wo mata hitotsu tsukare sasete Ikiteku imi ai no katachi sukoshi zutsu kowashiteiku

The reason why I'm able to laugh at the continuous pain I feel in my legs since yesterday Is because I know for a fact that (the body) breaks and will eventually come back to how it was If, without fail, the little glass I've always had becomes completely broken I can just begrudgingly ask for a replacement

A lot more will only continue to disappear from now on If only I could learn to love the sounds my body makes as it creaks

But the passing days - even this day has made me tired once more The meaning of living, the form of love - little by little, they all get destroyed

All of a sudden, the worries that my heart once was not able to completely consume and was left on the side, I was able to swallow them all - together with a swelling hope

If only the sad things continue to grow from now on The key to my feelings may become rusty, and the tears may no longer flow

But I'll still go against the clock - even just a little bit

But the passing days - even this day has made me tired once more The meaning of living, the form of love - little by little, they all get destroyed
