Album art.

薔薇と心眼
bara to shingan
The Rose and the Heart’s Eyes

Vocals: ランコ (Ranko)
Lyrics: ランコ (Ranko)
Arranged by: パプリカ (Paprika)
Album: FREAKS [Official site]
Circle: 豚乙女 (BUTAOTOME)
Event: C90
Original theme: The Instant is Shorter Than Planck Time [須臾はプランクを超えて]

Translating this one first because I love Planck!

This track is based on ‘The Little Prince.’ A section towards the end (‘What is essential is invisible to the eye.’) is a quote from chapter 21 of the book. I’m not very familiar with the original text, so please let me know if I missed any references/direct quotes.


歌詞

遠く遠く何百万もの星のどれかに咲いている
たった一輪の花
なんの役にも立たないトゲをつけて
じゃあそれは何でなの、
だいじなことじゃないの

おとなたちすべてを置き去りにしてきたの
そのうち数字しか面白くなくなるのかな やだな

寂しい気持ちは思い出に込めて
友達のことを忘れないように

なんにもわかるひまがないこの星で
友達は売ってない
どこにも売ってないよ

欲しいものさがして歩き回ってるけど
これがそうなんだろう、と思うと、
泣きたくなるのはなぜ?

かんじんなことは目に視えないんだ
美しいものは心で視なくちゃ

小さな時を重ねて、夜を越え、向こうへ
こわくないよ

私にとってのたったひとりだけ
かけがえないもの 代えられないもの
かんじんなことは目に視えないんだ
美しいものは心で視なくちゃ

Translation

Far, far away, upon one of the millions of stars,
A single flower blooms.
It has its thorns, though they are of no use.
Now, why is that so?
It isn’t worth worrying about.

I left all the adults far behind.
I wonder if only numbers will become interesting soon? Not a chance!

I stuff my feelings of loneliness deep inside my memories
So I won’t forget about my friend.

Upon this planet, where I don’t have time to understand anything,
They don’t sell friends.
They don’t sell them anywhere!

Though I walk around, searching for that which I desire,
When I think “Is this it?”
I want to cry. I wonder why…

What is essential is invisible to the eye.
Beautiful things must be seen with the heart.

Spending a little time, I passed through the night and headed far away.
I’m not scared!

For me, there’s just one thing
That I can’t replace, that can’t be replaced.
What is essential is invisible to the eye.
Beautiful things must be seen with the heart.

    I see you had to edit the wiki page because I didn’t properly cut down the note on The Little Prince. reference. Just wanted to say sorry about that, normally I do take out the unessential bits like that but I was being lazy =_=; and didn’t think of it.

      That’s okay, don’t worry about it! Normally I would have made something like that a proper note in the text, but I wasn’t thinking either and ended up talking about it at the start >_>
