“untitled” Suite Song “Song For You” English Lyrics - ARASHI

[arashitranslation]

Song For You　Vocal : ARASHI

[O]
Thanks　To all these miracles　with you
Same sceneries　same feelings　We’ve been walking along embracing them
Any day　Get Started　as we were

[AN]
Naming we were not used to　Suddenly got on that Cruiser
Completely mystery　Expectation & thrill towards the unreadable future
The showering Sunshine　The dazzling Island
Heading the open ocean　Just gotta do it

More than anything else　In front of us there’s Love & Music
Ride on the dream with you

Shake it up　The clamorous heart　1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Nip and tuck
Throbbing Bloom of youth　Nobody can stop this!　Can’t stop this!
Far away the glittering Spotlight　Towards that place we were longing for
We’re prepared for it　Dead or Alive
The sequel starts now

[MS]
We continue to dance
We continue to sing
A few years pass

Looking up, countless balloons
soar in the metropolitan night sky
the rainbow-coloured tears
overflow as if to fill in tomorrow

Let’s open a new page
Started going farther & farther ahead of the dream

Meet what’s meant to meet
Felt what’s meant to be felt　Wonders!
It’s still in the middle of the story　Yes

The Melody sounded with you
Resounds high　high and faraway
Towards the accelerating future
Let’s go together　with our trust as it is

[O] And then, once again　On this paradise we alighted on
[N] I remembered　What engraved on us
[S] Just one thing that doesn’t change　That important motto
[A] Never forget, never　'You are my soul'
[M] Want to tell you, all the time　'You are my soul'

[AMNOS]
For your happiness　no matter what trial
even in unforeseen headwind
Surely if we’re together we can face up to them　Ready go

Meet what’s meant to meet
Felt what’s meant to be felt　Wonders!
It’s still in the middle of the story　Yes

The Melody sounded with you
Resounds high　high and faraway
Towards the accelerating future
Let’s go together　The greatest Finale

[M] Looking back　the winding footprints that　continue far away
[S] With no one pausing　With no one leaving
[S] The seasons we’ve been travelling all along
[A] Close your eyes then　you’d hear　the soft Yell there
[N] enveloping the endless wish　and the sorrow
[O] tenderly giving us a boost from behind

[AMNOS]
Forever　Wherever　The journey continues
in the open ocean　Ah until the moment　the dream we sketched is shown to you
From now on as well　Smile　as we are

Even far away　The unchanged light
crossing the night sky　crossing time & space
connects the trembling hearts

This song for you

Thanks　To all these miracles　with you
Same sceneries　Same feelings　Let’s go together embracing them
Any day　be with you　as we are

On the very white page of　this new Novel
What hopes　What freedoms
shall we put into words
Ah　Towards the other side of the limitless time
I’ll take you along　This song for you

Thanks for the translation! I love the song even more now that I understand the lyrics <3 About the "can't hear" part, I think maybe they sing "A few years pass" ^^ It's what I hear anyway, I could be completely wrong :P

[junaibanina]

Thank you. Can't wait to know how they will perform this song in the concert!

[nienor09.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the translation! Regarding the "can´t hear" part, I also understand "A few years passed"...

[hestolemyheart]

I love this song <3
Thank you!

[clairdwinter]

Thank you for the translation! The lyrics are so heartfelt and puts into perspective their journey in how they came to be and how they have so much more to look forward to in the future. It makes me enjoy this song so much more :)

[arashitranslation]

Thanks for reading ^^

[arashitranslation]

me too, thanks for reading :)

[arashitranslation]

oh you also heard this? thanks! let me listen to it few more times........

[arashitranslation]

soon to know, soon to know *excited*

[arashitranslation]

thanks so much for the info, let me listen to it again.......

[irene_purin]

Just listened to this (Yes, I know I'm very late for this amazing song >^<) AND HONESTLY IT'S REALLY GREAT!

I listened to it while studying and the melody alone managed to give me the feels!
I've heard that this song is about their 18 years journey, but reading the translation of the song gives a whole different dimension of feels even though I anticipated that it'll be touching >v<

I have one question though: when they sang together on the last part, I think I heard "dokomade mo, dokomade mo, tabi wa tsuzuiteku"
Just wondering, why did you translate it as "forever wherever the journey continues" even though they're both "dokomade mo"?

Thank you so much for your translation! It's a great song and I'm glad I got to read this >v

[arashitranslation]

Dear IRENE_PURIN, thanks for your message.

You are correct that the lyrics is with dokomademo twice. I translate it as "forever wherever" because of my own interpretation. Please allow me to elaborate below.

In this song I find some parallels of time and space, such as tears-tomorrow, melody-future, footprints-seasons, ocean-moment, "crossing the night sky　crossing time & space", "Towards the other side of the limitless time". It seems that the song is talking about both space (the distance they have reached) and time (the time they spent as ARASHI).

In this regard, though dokomademo generally refers to space, I started to think why there are two dokomademo in the lyrics. My own interpretation is, maybe they also refer to the space and time. So I translated one dokomademo to be "forever" to refer to time.

Thanks.

[irene_purin]

Hi!

Ahh! I can see what you meant!
It's actually amazing that you noticed the correlation and I agree with your interpretation.
Thank you very much for your explanation! It's great >v<

And in case you misunderstand (I feel like your reply suddenly turned so formal so I'm wondering if I said something that offended you -- either by my wording or the content), I'm sorry if you were offended by my comment!
I really was just curious since I've only known basic Japanese and am curious if 'dokomademo' is also usually used in some other context.

Thank you very much for your translation!

[arashitranslation]

no no no misunderstand and no offence at all~

just... my english is limited, how to write the opening and closing of the message, i don't know well... that's the best i can write ><

so much joy to discuss translation! please always feel free to talk about ARASHI and translation :)

[irene_purin]

I’m glad to hear that! I just don’t want the discussion to be something that makes you sad because I really enjoy talking to everyone abour Arashi!

And actually, your English is really good!
It’s more like the formatting to me. Like using “Dear ...” in the opening is really formal, and this is the first time out of our interactions that you’ve ever used it in your reply, so that had me wondering.
Sorry for the misunderstanding!

Thank you always for your translation!
I’d love to have more discussion on more Arashi stuffs! ^v^

[arashitranslation]

no no no not sad at all... just typed the middle paragraph then thinking how to start and how to end then ... it turned out like this XDDDD

[irene_purin]

I’m glad to hear that!
The middle paragraph was very well-structures indeed!
It clearly conveys your reason on the translation.

[arashitranslation]

really? thanks... *shy*

[irene_purin]

Ya! I really admire the fact that you could find the connection on the lyrics and managed to convey your reasoning well + backed up with proofs!
Nice one!!

[arashitranslation]

many thanks :)

[arashitranslation]

You are correct, the lyrics is "A few years pass". Thanks a lot

[arashitranslation]

Yes you are right, it's "A few years pass". Thanks.

[roo_kie]

Thank you sooo much!
I just watching Vivid Taichi X Jun eps. It's like Taichi-san said, only people in group would understand this feeling, being together so long, have being together for so long and wanting to be together.
and I learn about it too.

[arashitranslation]

haven't watched it yet... indeed i believe this feeling is particular to the members.

[anistorm09]
