Nishino Kana - Girls (ENG Translation)

I tried translating Nishino Kana’s new song “Girls” which is also the theme song for Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy.

It’s a really nice song and will likely go into my favs list. I wanted to translate it so I can share it because the lyrics are very meaningful, especially when you’re going through rough times (like me maybe). It’s encouraging and comforting at the same time, please support the artist and perhaps try your hand at the puzzles in the new Layton game!

西野カナ

作曲：Giorgio Cancemi 作詞︰Kana Nishino・GIORGIO 13

歌詞 / Lyrics

[ Kanji ]

花のように強く 風のように優しく 雨の日も美しく それが女の子なの

たまに人知れず泣いたりしても 自分で決めた道 諦めたりしない

I’m gonna live until I die I’m gonna laugh instead of cry いつまでもこのまま 負けてられないよ 信じてる夢を この手にするまで Keep on fighting Fighting, fighting, fighting

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, さぁ声あげて oh oh oh oh oh oh 輝ける 明日はきっと

悲しいことは忘れるの 甘い甘い夢を見て それでもやる時はやるの それが私たちでしょ

たまにもう全部投げ出したくても 自分で歩いた道 後悔なんてない

I’m gonna live until I die I’m gonna laugh instead of cry 迷わずにこのまま 進んでいくだけ 運命も未来も この手にあるから Keep on fighting Fighting, fighting, fighting

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, さぁ声あげて oh oh oh oh oh oh 輝ける 明日はもっと

胸の奥に秘める Fire 何度でも立ち向かう Fighter 怖くても大丈夫 You can be stronger You can try, you can shine, you can fly

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, さぁ声あげて oh oh oh oh oh oh Make it louder, make it louder Hey girls!

[ Romaji ]

[ English Translation ]

Strong like a flower As gentle as the breeze Beautiful even on a rainy day That is what you call a girl

Even if at times I cry hidden from prying eyes I will never give up on the path I chose

I’m gonna live until I die I’m gonna laugh instead of cry I won’t let myself keep losing like this Until I achieve the dream I believe in

Keep on fighting Fighting, fighting, fighting

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, let your voices be heard oh oh oh oh oh oh  Radiant days are waiting ahead

Let’s forget about the sad things And keep dreaming about sweet, sweet things Nevertheless, we act when we need to That’s who we are, no?

Even if at times you just want to abandon everything Never regret the path you’ve walked so far

I’m gonna live until I die I’m gonna laugh instead of cry I’ll continue moving forward with unwavering convictions My future and destiny is in my own hands Keep on fighting Fighting, fighting, fighting

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, let your voices be heard oh oh oh oh oh oh The days ahead are radiating even more

A flame (fire) concealed within A fighter standing strong against any adversaries It’s all right to be afraid You can be stronger You can try, you can shine, you can fly

So girls, put your hands up Hey girls, let your voices be heard oh oh oh oh oh oh Make it louder, make it louder Hey girls!
