[Translation] AAA - Yell

A AAA translation? In THIS day and age? It's more likely than you think!

A loooong time ago I set myself a goal of translating their entire discography. That... will probably not happen, but I did at least want to finish the songs from Way of Glory. So... here's Yell.

*

When it was too far to reach When I felt like giving up on moving forward I could always hear your voice It felt as if you were there with me forever

The fragments of an uncountable number of dreams The road I chose, full of determined resolution There's no choice but go until I get there, right? Since I haven't even seen the boundary yet

Using the strength to not give up Can I share my courage with you?

The place where our dreams bloom is right here There are no regrets, because our hearts are dancing Wave the flag of your convinction And let's dive into our fate again and again All throughout the world, we swallow back our fears* While waiting for the glow of sunrise It's the pride of those of us believing With our fists held high in the air

Those times I overcame myself The times I could seize the stars I looked up at I could hear your tearful voice And these feelings linked us together, didn't they?

There are so many times I've had to hang my head In the middle of fumbling around without an answer But there was always someone's yell Lighting the fire in my heart

Will I ever get used to the shining light Of having a person so important to me?

The sky where our smiles shine is right here Let's look for the rainbow that comes after the rain Our happiness will overflow more than ever When we see the view from over that barrier We can paint this world again and again Though we may be small We'll set forth bravely with these legs And go on a journey we believe in

My heart quivers with each step I take I press down on the accelerator to head out If I can just get over my fear I can surely reach you, waiting down this road I don't fear, I'm taking it seriously The frontier that I promised myself My burning fighting spirit is what keeps me going

With my roots in the earth and a little patience That bitterness is just a hint at my future success It's a chance, see, so let's put our hands in the air Aiming for the sun, let's sprout up right now

Follow me, follow me The goal is far Which road will let me continue to victory? It's okay! For you, the fighter, There will be a trophy that shines brilliantly someday

The place where our dreams bloom is right here There are no regrets, because our hearts are dancing Wave the flag of your conviction And let's dive into our fate again and again All throughout the world, we swallow back our fears* While waiting for the glow of sunrise It's the pride of those of us believing With our fists held high in the air

[Translation] AAA - BAD LOVE

So sorry this took so long!! Work has been crazy for me and has left very little time for fun things @_@ I hope you guys like it; it was an interesting challenge to tackle for a translation.

A-ha, it's all full of discord A-ha, the turbulent rise of the curtain A-ha, so jump right into it Could you feel my "Bad Love"!? A-ha, carried away on instinct A-ha, in the interval between love and hate They're calmly waving, this excited cast

We challenge each other with this lover's game So lay down your traps, overjoyed If it shows for even an instant You can't escape When no one's looking, change your side A mesmerizing sort of cunning Dance all night in the sea of this error code

Jealous show, can't stop! Our gazes tangle, so hot Is this "Bad Love"!? You can't resist "Bad Love" Sweetly, baby She screams "Jealousy!" We love without crushing each other Is this "Bad Love"!? It's not bad, yeah? "Bad Love"

Come to me right now Uno, dos, tres, cuatro Until this flavor melts

Mixed in a distortion A-ha, a prisoner of envy A-ha, that passion that won't sink-- Don't you seek it!? Don't you feel it, baby!? A-ha, a paradox til we show our real selves A-ha, drowning in a sense of deja vu Disguised as cold-blooded, caressing wildly

Switch between black or white It's exposed, your naked soul It's best if only the chosen one gets to leave

Jealous show, can't stop! You teased me just as much, so hot Is this "Bad Love"!? Until you're struggling "Bad Love" It suits you, baby He screams "Jealousy!" Amidst the scent of cigarettes Is this "Bad Love"!? We'll fight it out "Bad Love" Passionately crazy

Come to me right now Uno, dos, tres, cuatro Until this flavor melts

Hey baby, it's improper But I don't hate it either When our eyes meet We don't hear the call to wait We'll aim straight for the throat A game where our hot breath mingles One by one, we'll draw it out No matter how many times I try to say it "It's impossible now"

Oh, this desire calmly burns Surely we can't stop! Our gazes tangle, so hot Is this "Bad Love"!? You can't resist "Bad Love" Sweetly, baby She screams "Jealousy!" We love without crushing each other Is this "Bad Love"!? It's not bad, yeah? "Bad Love"

Come to me right now Uno, dos, tres, cuatro Until this flavor melts

[Translation] AAA - Namida no Nai Sekai

Ooh thing song has grown on me. I wasn’t super fond of it when it was released but the lyrics really are quite beautiful. I’m also pretty proud of this translation; it took a bit of work to get the imagery to translate correctly but I’m fairly happy with the end result.

Next up is either Yell or Bad Love, if the official lyrics drop before I finish Yell.

Enjoy!

Hey, we were people who tended to falter Our hands hovering in the air Like that, at the moment we touched We knew the beginning of our love

Hey, it can be so vague The boundary between right and wrong Like that, surely no one we would know If we crossed over them

Even if I strain my ears for your voice Even if I try to search for your smile Even if I try to touch your heart I can't seem to reach you

If a world without tears exists Guide me there immediately In a future without you, all on my own I search for a love That I can never again find

Hey, just like footprints Carving through snow Like that, the things we love Also disappear over time

Hey, the memories of every day That we imagined together Like that, I fooled myself Thinking they'd go on forever

My shout disappears into the wind I try to touch you, but all I feel is cold I'll scream your name again and again Until it finally reaches you

If a world without tears exists I want to go there with you, even now It's okay if it's an illusion, or just a dream Just once more, I want to smile with you As you were on that day

I could see it there, naturally The scene disappearing into the falling snow Tens of thousands of times I held these words close But the warmth from that day is already gone The color, the taste, the scent, everything As if I've lost this world entirely

I'll be there Forever Like a wind wrapping tight around you

If I'm to go to a world without laughter Then I want be close to you, as you are It's okay if it's an illusion, or just a dream Just once more, I want to smile with you As you were on that day

A meager bouquet of flowers Petals dancing in the wind A scent that reminds me of you All in a fleeting thought
