The Murmuring of Spring

Vocals: A～YA
Lyrics: Blue E
Arranged by: Swing Holic Band
Album: SWING HOLIC VOL.08 【Official Site】
Circle: SWING HOLIC
Event: C81
Original Theme: At the End of Spring [春の湊に]

Requested by: Repudiator

It’s possible to interpret the ship as the speaker’s ship – they could be on the ship, or they could just be watching the ship fly away.

春の夜の刹那　例えられない歓び
香る花を照らす　月の光だわ

haru no yoru no setsuna tatoerarenai yorokobi
kaoru hana o terasu tsuki no hikari da wa

During a moment in a spring night, I feel an incomparable joy.
It’s from the light of the moon, which illuminates the fragrant flowers.

夕凪染める唄も　いつしか薄れていく
誰もいない広場 想いに耽るの

yuunagi someru uta mo itsu shika usurete iku
dare mo inai hiroba omoi ni fukeru no

Even this song, which colours the evening calm, will someday fade.
In an empty plaza, I give myself up to my imagination.

Dream on Dream
心浸す　甘い夜風だわ
Shooting Star
願いの言葉　三回唱えるの　そんなおまじない

dream on dream
kokoro hitasu amai yokaze da wa
shooting star
negai no kotoba sankai tonaeru no sonna omajinai

Dream on Dream.
The sweet night breeze soaks my heart.
Shooting Star.
I’ll chant my wish three times. That’s the charm.

春は眠たい季節 そこかしこ鳥の声
昨夜の雨の中で　花は散ったかしら？

haru wa nemutai kisetsu soko kashiko tori no koe
yuube no ame no naka de hana wa chitta kashira

Spring is the season of drowsiness. Birdsong is all around.
Did the blossoms fall in last night’s rain?

遥か遠い世界　華やぎの都へと
舟は帆を揺らして　空に消えていく

haruka tooi sekai hanayagi no miyako e to
fune wa ho o yurashite sora ni kiete iku

Travelling to a distant, distant world, to the brilliant metropolis,
the ship’s sail swings and vanishes into the sky.

どこか妖しい気配 　山と川のざわめき
時が過ぎる中で　揺れてる儚さ

dokoka ayashii kehai yama to kawa no zawameki
toki ga sugiru naka de yureteru hakanasa

There’s a somewhat mysterious presence. It is the murmuring of the mountain and river.
It is wavering transience in the passage of time.

不思議　何か変なの　幽かな声　聞こえる
小さな　胸騒ぎに　想いはふるえた

fushigi nanika hen na no kasuka na koe kikoeru
chiisana munasawagi ni omoi wa furueta

How mysterious. Something is strange. I can hear a faint voice.
My feelings quivered in the face of my slight unease.

Rainbow beam
手を伸ばして掴みたい宝石
Fly away
この空の果て　目を疑うような　奇蹟も起こる

rainbow beam
te o nobashite tsukamitai houseki
fly away
kono sora no hate me o utagau you na kiseki mo okoru

Rainbow beam.
I want to reach out and grab that jewel.
Fly away.
Unbelievable miracles will happen, too, at the edge of the sky.

空気が目覚める季節　啼きやまない鳥たち
朝の柔らかさは　雫の花びら

kuki ga mezameru kisetsu naki yamanai tori-tachi
asa no yawarakasa wa shizuku no hanabira

This is the season where the air awakens. The birds don’t stop chirping.
The tenderness of the morning is a drop on the petals.

何を探してるの？ どこへ向かう旅なの？
舟は帆を揺らして　空に消えていく

nani o sagashiteru no? doko e mukau tabi na no?
fune wa ho o yurashite sora ni kiete iku

What is it searching for? Where is it journeying to?
The ship’s sail swings and vanishes into the sky.

明日を　追い翔けて　翼は羽ばたく

asu o oi kakete tsubasa wa habataku

Chasing after tomorrow, I flap my wings.

I think it’s worthwhile noting that 星 (hoshi) normally means ‘star’ but can also mean ‘planet’.

じっとしていた
君だけに見つめられていたくて
空白のあの時を埋めたのは誰

jitto shite ita
kimi dake ni mitsumerarete itakute
kuuhaku no ano toki o umeta no wa dare

I stayed there, unmoving.
I only wanted you to look at me
but who filled in that blank time?

ぼっとしていた
欲望をなぞり付けた夢を
願った力が動き出す
君に届けたくて

botto shite ita
yokubou o nazori tsuketa yume o
negatta chikara ga ugokidasu
kimi ni todoketakute

I was blushing.
I had a dream that traced along my lust.
The power I wished for awakens.
I want to reach you…

目覚めたばかりのこの世界で
何処まで辿れば思い出してくれますか

mezameta bakari no kono sekai de
doko made tadoreba omoidashite kuremasuka

In this world, which has only just awakened,
How far do I need to travel before you’ll remember me?

遠い遠い遥か彼方僕は時の旅人
君が見てる空はいつもいつも嘘をついてさ

tooi tooi haruka kanata boku wa toki no tabibito
kimi ga miteru sora wa itsumo itsumo uso o tsuite sa

Far, far off in the distance, I am a time traveller.
The sky you look up at is always, always lying to you.

巡り廻る星はきっと君の残した軌跡
夜を纏う月はまるで全てを知る瞳のようで

meguri meguru hoshi wa kitto kimi no nokoshita kiseki
yoru o matou tsuki wa maru de subete o shiru hitomi no you de

The revolving stars must be traces left behind by you.
Clad in the night, the moon is just like an all-knowing eye.

今あの星の何処かで輝く街へ

ima ano hoshi no dokoka de kagayaku machi e

Now, I head to a city that shines somewhere on that star.

じっとしていた
悲しさが僕に見せた夢は
起きたばかり
行き先は右左どっち

jitto shite ita
kanashisa ga boku ni miseta yume wa
okita bakari
ikisaki wa migi hidari docchi

I stayed there, unmoving,
In a dream sadness showed me.
I’ve just awoken from it.
Is my destination to my right or to my left?

ぼっとしていた
欲望をなぞり付けた夢を
願った力が動き出す
君に届けたくて

I was blushing.
I had a dream that traced along my lust.
The power I wished for awakens.
I want to reach you…

からくり仕掛けのこの世界を
貴方は何処まで読み解いているのかな

karakuri shikake no kono sekai o
anata wa doko made yomitoite iru no kana

This world is full of tricks and devices.
How much of it have you deciphered?

遠い遠い遥か彼方僕は時の旅人
僕が見てる君はいつもいつも嘘をついてさ

tooi tooi haruka kanata boku wa toki no tabibito
boku ga miteru kimi wa itsumo itsumo uso o tsuite sa

Far, far off in the distance, I am a time traveller.
I look at you, who always, always lie to me.

巡り廻る星はまるで月の残した軌跡
夜を纏う空はきっと誰も知らないような歌を

meguri meguru hoshi wa maru de tsuki no nokoshita kiseki
yoru o matou sora wa kitto dare mo shiranai you na uta o

The revolving stars must be traces left behind by the moon.
Clad in the night, the sky sings a song unknown to all.

たどり着いたこの街は綺麗夢のように

tadori tsuita kono machi wa kirei yume no you ni

The city I arrived at is like a beautiful dream.

回る回る

Revolve, revolve
somewhere on this beautiful star.

Original Theme: Starry Sky of Small Desires [小さな欲望の星空]

Requested by: Vengeance

想 is consistently sung as 声 (koe – voice), so it’s possible that the title should be interpreted in the same way.

生まれくるのは星の生命で
夜空埋めてく色とりどりの 想(こえ)
儚き記億　伝う涙に
誰かの願い　そっと触れて消えた

umarekuru no wa hoshi no inochi de
yozora umeteku irotoridori no koe
hakanaki kioku tsutau namida ni
dareka no negai sotto furete kieta

Stars are born.
Their multicoloured voices cover the night sky.
Fleeting memories lie in my falling tears.
I gently touched someone’s desires and they vanished.

輝いてキエル想(こえ)と星の降る夜に何を思う？
過去の想(こえ)　耳を澄まし風が吹く場所で眺めていた

kagayaite kieru koe to hoshi no furu yoru ni nani o omou?
kako no koe mimi o sumashi kaze ga fuku basho de nagamete ita

What do you think about voices, shining and fading away, and nights full of shooting stars?
I listened for voices from the past. I was looking out from a place where the wind blew.

生まれて巡る生命の日々
時を紡いで積み重ねた歴史
拙い言葉　君を求めて
私の願い受け継がれてゆくの

umarete meguru seimei no hibi
toki o tsumuide tsumikasaneta rekishi
tsutanai kotoba kimi o motomete
watashi no negai uketsugarete yuku no

During these days, lives are born. They go through a cycle.
Spinning together time, they accumulate history.
My words are clumsy. I want you.
My desires are being inherited by another.

流れてく人の群れに　この身を委ねて 廻る(まわる)セカイ
今を往く君に想い　いつか夢に見て不意に涙

nagareteku hito no mure ni kono mi wo yudanete mawaru sekai
ima o yuku kimi ni omoi itsuka yume ni mite fui ni namida

I abandon myself to a flowing crowd of people. The world turns.
I have feelings for you, living in the present. I saw you in a dream one day and suddenly cried.

You grow speechless, and I hold you tight.
Your expression constantly changes.
“Leave me alone!” But I can’t.
You understand, right?

何気ない悩みでも

もやもやがやってきても　きっと
明日にはいい事あるよ

Though I feel casual worries,
When you’re by my side, I feel at ease.
Even when gloominess arrives, I’m sure
That good things will happen tomorrow.

今は見えない　未来に挫けそうでも
広がる夢は　蝶のように飛んでいくの

ima wa mienai mirai ni kujikesou demo
hirogaru yume wa chou no you ni tonde iku no

Even if I lose heart in the face of the future, which I cannot see,
My expanding dream will fly like a butterfly.

ふわふわに浮かんだココロ
少しだけせつない時も
きらきらの流れる星に
お願いしたら悲しさもバイバイ

My heart floated lightly.
Even when times are just a bit trying,
If I wish upon a shining shooting star,
I’ll say bye-bye to my sadness.

抱きしめてびっくりしてる

I hug you and you get startled
But I love you for that.
I want my voice to reach you.
Perhaps my extraordinary magic will work on you someday…

You look to the side with a sulky look.
With that face, I’m gonna pull a prank!
You look this way and I poke your cheek. Hey—
When I see you smiling, my heart throbs.

月の雫が照らしてくれる航路
次の扉の　鍵を捜して

tsuki no shizuku ga terashite kureru kouro
tsugi no tobira no kagi wo sagashite

Beads of light from the moon illuminate the path.
I search for a key to the next door.

ふわふわと浮かんだ想い
どこかへ逃げてしまいそう
寂しがり　素直になれない
自分勝手な気持ちからバイバイ

fuwa fuwa to ukanda omoi
dokoka e nigete shimaisou
sabishigari sunao ni narenai
jibun katte na kimochi kara bai bai

My feelings floated lightly.
It looks like they’ll escape somewhere.
I miss you. I can’t be honest with you.
I’ll say bye-bye to my selfish feelings.

抱きしめて少し照れてる
そんなキミだから好きなの
その声で　名前を呼んで
とびきりの魔法がかかっていたのはわたし

I hug you and you blush
But I love you for that.
Call for me…
I’m the one who fell under that extraordinary magic!

I aim somewhere far away in the blue sky and race off

The way back home was drenched by a passing shower.
I took shelter from the rain, slushing through the puddles.
Even after something painful has happened,
I’ll jump over it with a single bound and face forwards!

I fly through the sky with a heart free like a bird.
I’m gonna keep going, heading into the blue distance on my own wings.
I’m gonna race off to the rainbow I can see in the distance.
I’ll surpass the wind and pass over the clouds, together with you. Come!

Original Theme: Cinderella Cage ~ Kagome-Kagome [シンデレラケージ ～ Kagome-Kagome]

Requested by: Marisa~Nya

It’s awesome when arrangements of Kagome-Kagome quote the original song! This one adds a few sections in. I interpreted them as referring to the speaker, but they could also refer to the bird in its cage (which could also be a metaphor for the speaker). It’s complicated…

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The dry wind of the end blows fiercely.
The cracks in my palms hurt.
I heard someone’s footsteps
And that song of someday echoed, as if mocking me.

―かごめかごめ　かごのなかのとりは―
羽をもがれて　落ちていくだけ

I pluck my feathers, and they begin to fall.
—In the night of dawn, the crane and turtle slipped—
My heart crumbles, and I fall to my knees.

Though tomorrow, which I gazed up at, is transient,
Though today, which I look down upon, is in vain,
I cannot live if I stop moving,
Together with those foolish, ugly animals.

暮れていく　終末の夕焼け
燃えるように　消えてく幻想

The sunset of the end begins to fall.
The illusion begins to fade, as if burning away.
Someone’s hope just begins to be plunged into grief, too.
That song of someday echoed, unheard…

―かごめかごめ　かごのなかのとりは―
喉を枯らして　口紡ぐだけ
―よあけのばんに　つるとかめがすべった―

I let my throat dry, holding my tongue.
—In the night of dawn, the crane and turtle slipped—
Losing my destination, I just shut my eyes.

静かな部屋で　コトバも無く

I want to spend the time slowly with you
In this silent room, without words.

When did our hearts become one?
The words thrust, whittling away a pointed tip.
Gradually, I began to aim less meaningless jokes at you –
You, with your wicked tongue. How unfortunate.

じゃれ合うコトバ　無意識から
二人は繋がってたい　裏付けをした

jareau kotoba muishiki kara

The words frolic from my unconsciousness.
I took it as proof that we wanted to be together.

イタズラな愛　いじめ合うよ
丸まったトゲで撫でて　確かめ合おう

Our love is mischievous. We just tease each other!
Let’s stroke each other with balled-up thorns and make sure of each other…

イラつく仕草も　あばたもえくぼで

In love, I am blind to your annoying behaviours, too.
It looks like I’ll be able to settle my smouldering feelings as well…
I can’t hide my bluff completely.
Together, we are one
Because it isn’t embarrassing at all.

手と手で味わう　静かな退屈
握った温もり　嬉しい退屈
後悔が無いと言い切れる退屈
優しくて自慢の満たされた退屈

te to te de ajiwau shizuka na taikutsu
nigitta nukumori ureshii taikutsu
koukai ga nai to iikireru taikutsu
yasashikute jiman no mitasareta taikutsu

Hand in hand, we savour it. Silent boredom.
We held warmth in our hands. Pleasant boredom.
Boredom, declaring that it has no regrets.
Tender boredom satisfied my pride.

Requested by: Marisa~Nya

The ‘dead man’ is Yoshika. Let’s just ignore the fact that she’s actually a woman… >_> There’s one part in there where きみたち [‘kimitachi’ – ‘you (plural)] is written, but Ranko sings the singular form instead. I noted it down in brackets rather than in a translation note since she sings it as it’s written later on.

I don’t know if I mentioned this anywhere, but Butaotome has an official Youtube channel now! Make sure you subscribe to it!

Lyrics: yonji
Arranged by: yonji
Album: Illusory World [幻想世界] 【Official Site】
Circle: Girl’s short hair
Event: C81
Original Theme: Beware the Umbrella Left There Forever [万年置き傘にご注意を]

Requested by: Marisa~Nya

So somehow I managed to not get around to this for almost 2 months. Whoops >_< Anyway, the lyrics are cute. I wonder who Kogasa’s walking with…?

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

曇り空から　こぼれる
雫を雨傘で　受け止めて
思わず　ニヤける顔
水たまりを蹴り上げて　ふと

kumori sora kara koboreru
shizuku wo amagasa de uketomete
omowazu niyakeru kao
mizu tamari wo keri agete futo

My umbrella stops the rain
As it spills from the cloudy sky.
Without thinking, I smile.
Suddenly, I kick up a puddle.

振り向き　駆け寄り
手を取り　君が言う
「明日も雨ならいいよね」
楽しげなその笑顔に　心奪われてく

furimuki kakeyori
te wo tori kimi ga iu
“ashita mo ame nara ii yo ne”
tanoshige na sono egao ni kokoro ubawareteku

I look over my shoulder and race to you.
I take your hand, and you say:
“I’ll be good if it rains tomorrow, too.”
My heart was snatched away by your cheerful smile.

傘に弾けた雫が
奏でる音、リズムに
乗って二人歩く
「明日また雨になれ」
ふざけながら　空に
お祈りしてみたりして
そんな　雨傘天気予報

kasa ni hajiketa shizuku ga
kanaderu oto, rizumu ni
notte futari aruku
“ashita mata ame ni nare”
fuzake nagara sora ni
o-inori shite mitari shite
sonna amagasa tenki yohou

We walked together,
Following the rhythm of the raindrops
Beating against my umbrella.
“I want it to rain again tomorrow…”
Whilst playing around,
I tried to pray to the sky.
It was that sort of umbrella weather forecast.

晴れた空から　そそいだ
日差しを雨傘で　受け止めて
思わず　うつむく顔
道端のカエルを　見下ろし
振り向き　駆け寄り
手に取り　君が言う
「あなたも雨のがいいよね」
幼げなその言葉に　ただ驚かされる

hareta sora kara sosoida
hizashi wo amagasa de uketomete
omowazu utsumuku kao
michibata no kaeru wo mioroshi
furimuki kakeyori
te ni tori kimi ga iu
“anata mo ame no ga ii yo ne”
osanage na sono kotoba ni tada odorokasareru

My umbrella stops the sunlight
As it pours from the clear sky.
Without thinking, I smile.
I look down on the frogs by the road.
I look over my shoulder, and race to you.
I pick one of them up, and you say:
“You like the rain as well, don’t you?”
I was surprised by your childish words.

傘に弾けた雫が
奏でる音、リズムに
乗って二人歩く
「明日また雨になれ」
ふざけながら　空に
お祈りしてみたりして
そんな　雨傘天気予報

kasa ni hajiketa shizuku ga
kanaderu oto, rizumu ni
notte futari aruku
“ashita mata ame ni nare”
fuzake nagara sora ni
o-inori shite mitari shite
sonna amagasa tenki yohou

We walked together,
Following the rhythm of the raindrops
Beating against my umbrella.
“I want it to rain again tomorrow…”
Whilst playing around,
I tried to pray to the sky.
It was that sort of umbrella weather forecast.

やつれた頬を流れる 哀れな水滴は何色？
一つ隔てた内側に 隠したものは何？
か細い管を流れる あなたの血液は何色？
塞いだ傷の内側を 覗いてあげる

yatsukareta hoho wo nagareru aware na suiteki wa nani’iro?
hitotsu hedateta uchigawa ni kakushita mono wa nani?
kabosoi kuda wo nagareru anata no ketsueki wa nai’iro?
fusaida kizu no uchigawa wo nozoite ageru

What colour are the pitiful tears that flow down my gaunt cheeks?
I separate one from the others. What is hidden inside?
What colour is your blood, which flows down that small pipe?
I shall peek inside your clotted wounds…

さあ踊れ裸の心で
重ね着の建前 脱ぎ捨てて
さあ踊れ裸足のヒロイン
映した鏡が暴いた真実

saa odore hadaka no kokoro de
kasanegi no tatemae nugisutete
saa odore hadashi no hiroin
utsushita kagami ga abaita shinjitsu

Now dance, with a naked heart!
Fling off the layers you wear in public.
Now dance, barefoot heroine!
The truth was exposed in the mirror.

乾いた肌に滲んだ 哀れな水滴は何色？
皮を剥がした内側に うごめくものは何？
か細い指に滲んだ あなたの血液は何色？
嘘にまみれたその口を 塞いであげる

kawaita hada ni nijinda aware na suiteki wa nani’iro?
kawa wo hagashita uchigawa ni ugomeku mono wa nani?
kabosoi yubi ni nijinda anata no ketsueki wa nani’iro?
uso ni mamireta sono kuchi wo fusaide ageru

What colour are the pitiful tears that flow down my parched skin?
What is wriggling around in my torn-off skin?
What colour is your blood, which oozes down my thin fingers?
I shall stop up your mouth, so smeared with lies.

さあ踊れ裸の心で
重ね着の建前 脱ぎ捨てて
さあ踊れ裸足のヒロイン
映した鏡が暴いた真実

saa odore hadaka no kokoro de
kasanegi no tatemae nugisutete
saa odore hadashi no hiroin
utsushita kagami ga abaita shinjitsu

Now dance, with a naked heart!
Fling off the layers you wear in public.
Now dance, barefoot heroine!
The truth was exposed in the mirror.

もうここでお喋りはお終い
あなたの命は私の物よ

mou koko de o-shaberi wa o-shimai
anata no inochi wa watashi no mono yo

That’s it – the time for talking is over.
Your life is mine now…

さあ踊れ裸の心で
重ね着の建前 脱ぎ捨てて
さあ踊れ裸足のヒロイン
映した鏡が暴いた真実

saa odore hadaka no kokoro de
kasanegi no tatemae nugisutete
saa odore hadashi no hiroin

Now dance, with a naked heart!
Fling off the layers you wear in public.
Now dance, barefoot heroine!
