[Lyric] MOON Lyric Romaji + Translation

MOON

Romaji
:

Bokutachi ga deatta yoru wa kensou no naka ni magirete
Yume to real o ikiki shi nagara maboroshi no you ni kiete tta
Ano hi no tsuki wa too sugite kioku mo aimai na mama de
Kimi no sugata wa boyakete ta kara wasure rareru hazu datta n da

Kizutsuketa kokoro ga hajimete miseta namida o
Kono te de sotto nuguu yuuki mo nakutte gomen ne

Nee yasashii uta o kimi ni ageru yo
Eien o eien ni shinji rareru you ni
Dakara mou sonna ni kanashii me de
Furueru koe de kika nai de
"Aishite ru?"

Te o nobase ba todoki sou na tsuki o futari de miageta ne
Kirei sugite kurushikatta kara nakidashi sou ni natte ta n da

Me o tojite chikatta inori ga kanau no naraba
Mou sore ijou hoka ni wa nanimo nannimo iranai

* Nee yasashii uta o kimi ni ageru yo
Eien o eien ni shinji rareru you ni
Dakara douka kimi wa waratte ite
Shiawase da yo to kikasete
Mou ichido

Nee yasashii uta o kimi ni ageru yo
Eien o eien ni shinji rareru you ni
Dakara mou sonna ni kanashii me de
Furueru koe o kakushite kikanai de
"Nee aishite ru?"

* (repeat)

Translation under the cut!

The night we met blended in with the bustle of the city
Passed between dreams and reality and disappeared like an illusion
Because the moon that day was too far and my memory was vague with your blurred figure
I thought I'd be able to forget you

I'm sorry that I didn't even have the courage to softly wipe the tears
That you showed me for the first time when I hurt your heart

I'll give you a gentle song
So that you can believe in eternity for ever
So please don't ask me anymore
With such sad eyes, in a trembling voice
"Do you love me?"

We looked up together at the moon that looked close enough to touch, didn't we?
It was so beautiful that I felt pain in my chest and was about to cry

I closed my eyes and sweared
"If this prayer come true, I need nothing, nothing else"

* I'll give you a gentle song
So that you can believe in eternity for ever
So please keep smiling
And let me hear you say, "I'm happy"
Once again

I'll give you a gentle song
So that you can believe in eternity for ever
So please don't ask me anymore
With such sad eyes, hiding your trembling voice
"Do you love me?"

* (repeat)

[Lyric] MOON Official Lyric Kanji + Romaji + Translation

MOON Official Lyric

Kanji

僕達が出逢った夜は 喧騒の中に紛れて
夢とリアルを行き来しながら 幻のように消えてった
あの日の月は遠すぎて 記憶も曖昧なままで
君の姿はぼやけてたから 忘れられるはずだったんだ

傷つけた心が初めて見せた涙を
この手でそっと拭う勇気もなくってごめんね

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからもうそんなに悲しい瞳で
震える声で聞かないで
「愛してる?」

手を伸ばせば届きそうな 月をふたりで見上げたね
綺麗すぎて苦しかったから 泣き出しそうになってたんだ

目を閉じて誓った 祈りが叶うのならば
もうそれ以上他には何もなんにもいらない

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと聞かせて
もう一度

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからもうそんなに悲しい瞳で
震える声を隠して聞かないで
「ねぇ愛してる?」

優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと聞かせて
もう一度

Translation

The night we met was lost in tumult
and while we switched between dreams and reality it disappeared like an illusion
The moon that day was so far and with my memory still vague,
your shape was becoming blurry so I should have been able to forget

I'm sorry that my wounded heart didn't even have the courage
to softly wipe these tears you first showed me

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore
with such sad eyes, in a shaking voice,
"Do you love me?"

We looked up together at the moon we thought we could reach if we lifted our hands
It was too beautiful and painful that it seemed I would burst into tears

I closed my eyes and vowed if I had a prayer come true,
I thought it would be that I may never need anything, anything more than that

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please smile for me
and let me hear you say that you're happy
once again

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore
with such sad eyes, hiding your shaking voice,
"Hey, do you love me?"

I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please smile for me
and let me hear you say that you're happy

Well, this lyric of MOON is not official coming from the booklet yet, but it's based on what the screen shown during MOON is performed in ARENA TOUR 2010 but this is more or less, it could be 100% true :)

MOON

Kanji


僕たちが出会った場所は
喧噪の中に紛れて
夢とリアルを行き来したから
幻のように消えてった

あの日の月は遠すぎて
記憶も曖昧なままで
君の姿はぼやけてたから
忘れられるはずだったんだ

傷つけた心が 初めて見せた涙を
この手でそっと拭う勇気がなくてごめんね
ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられるように
だからもうそんな悲しい瞳で
震える声で聞かないで

「愛してる?」

手をのばせば届きそうな月を
二人で見上げたね
綺麗過ぎて苦しかったから
泣きだしそうになったんだ

瞳を閉じて誓った
もし願いが叶うのならば
もう他には何にもいらないと思った
ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられるように
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと聞かせて

もう一度

優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられるように
だからもうそんな悲しい瞳で
震える声を隠して聞かないで

「ねぇ愛してる?」

優しい歌を君にあげるよ

Translation

The place where we met was lost in tumult
What was a dream and what was reality was wavering
And like an illusion it disappeared

The moon of that day was so far,
and with my memory still vague,
your shape was becoming blurry so
I should have been able to forget

I'm sorry that my wounded heart
didn't have the courage to softly wipe
these tears you first showed me
I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore, with your eyes of sorrow, in a shaking voice, "Do you love me?"

We looked up together at
the moon we thought we could reach
if we lifted our hands
It was too beautiful and painful that
it seemed I would cry

I closed my eyes and vowed
If I had a wish come true, I thought it would be
that I may never need anything else
I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please smile for me, and let me hear you say that you're happy,

Once more

I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore, with your eyes of sorrow, hiding your shaking voice, "Hey, do you love me?"

[Twitter] Ayu's Twitter Updated: 02.05.2010 Talking About MOON

Ayu tweeted such long messages about the song "MOON", it seems that it's really a special song for her :)

"A Songという、この曲をこえるものに出会う事はこの先二度とないだろうと思いながら歌っていたほど、私自 身にとってモンスターのようなあの曲を創ってしまった星野さんの、あれからの10年。。。そして今回まさが 、「この曲聴いてみて」と突然渡してくれた、MOONのデモ。"

How can I translate it... ahaha I can't think of the english for it, but it's like well, she thought that there would never be a song that could overtake the monster like feeling of A Song for XX song, and while singing that song, she thought there would never be a song like it, and the person who created such a song was Hoshino-san. And ten years from that, Max told her that she had to listen to this song, and it was the demo for Moon.

"あえてなのかは知らないが、星野さんの作曲だという言葉は添えられていなかった。けれど、私は聴 いた瞬間 なにかとても懐かしい、昔の浜崎あゆみを感じ、まさに即答した。「この曲、絶対歌いたい。」あ んなにも惹か れた理由は、今となっては言わずもがな。である。"

If it was by some pressure she didn't know, but anyways the demo didn't have any words like "created by Hoshino." But, in the moment she listened to it, she got very nostalgic, and she could feel the old Hamasaki Ayumi, and she answered Max. "I want to sing this, definitely." The reason why she was so drawn in, there's no need to say that now.

"私達はまた手をとりあい、確実に歩き出したのだ。ぎこちなくも、しっかりと前を向いて。ここで指 す私達が 誰であるかは、読み手の方に委ねよう。やばい、真面目な事を書いてしまった。今日はこれでおわ り。長野に着 いたよ。"

We are still holding each other's hands, and certainly we started walking. Of course even if we are clumbsy, we are moving forward. I'll entrust the question "Who is it that chose us at this point?" to the reader. Ah! I wrote something so serious! Today, I'll end it here. I arrived in Nagoya.

Obviously, MOON means so much to her, so I hope it will be great for everyone too.

[Blog] Max Matsuura's Blog Entry About MOON

2010-05-03 01:05:03
「moon」 が出来るまで・・・・


その昔、まだ僕が24歳位の頃、自分の貸しレコード店で働く、


同じ歳のアルバイトの奴が、「付き合いのある、スタジオが、閉店したんで、


機材を譲り受けたから、何か社長の好きな曲を作りますよ!」と言うんで、


僕は、自分の好きなダンスミュージックを何十曲と渡し、特に期待もせずに、というか、


ほぼ、そんな事は、日々の忙しさに忙殺され、忘れてしまっていた。


ある日、彼が僕に曲が出来たとカセットテープをくれた。


店が閉店し、帰る車の中でそのテープを聞き、


まだ、僕の求めるものとは、ほど遠いけど、何か感じるものがあった。


それからは何度か彼の家に行き、あーでもない、こーでもないと、


ひたすら、僕の望む音に仕上げて行く日々を送った。


そして、彼は貸しレコードのアルバイトから、まだ、出来たばかりのエイベックスの社員となった 。


当時の流行りのユーロビートを完璧なまでに、日本で再現するため、


エイベックスはまだレコード会社でもないのに、町田に小さなスタジオを作った。


友達の内装屋に頼み、防音の仕方もわからない僕らは、


それでも、自力で、どうにかスタジオを作ってしまった。


そして、すぐに、avex traxがスタートした。


HI-BPM STUDIOと名付けられた手作りのスタジオはさしづめ、ぼくのおもちゃに近いものだった。


僕がスタジオに一番時間をさいたのは、その頃かもしれない。


徹底的にEUROBEATをマスターするため、キックの音ひとつ作るのにいったい何ヶ月かけたかわからない 。


そして、ついに僕らは本場のイタリアはミラノに旅だち、


その彼はEUROBEATの巨匠、デイヴロジャースのスタジオで約一ヶ月間アシスタントを勤め 帰国した。


彼のEUROBEATの作品で、スーパーユーロビートに収録されている曲は、何曲もある。


当時、僕らは日本人とはわからないように楽曲を制作していた。


そして、世の中は、テクノハウスの時代へと進み、世はバブル。


ジュリアナTOKYOが絶世を風靡していた。


すかさず、彼はテクノハウスの制作に入る。


代表曲は、誰でもが知っているあの曲だ。Can't Undo This!!



そう、記憶にあたらしいところでは、DJ OZMAがカバーしたあの


I RAVE U feat. DJ OZMA の元曲である。


その後も彼はスターゲイザー、マキシマイザーの名義でジュリアナでのヒット曲を作りまくった。


時、同じく、小室哲哉氏がテクノハウスに興味をもちtrfをデビューさせる。


デビュー曲の「GOING TO DANCE」のリミックスは彼であり、


のちのちリミックスのほうがメインのアレンジと変わって行く。


「GOING TO DANCE」である。


今でもライブの場合は彼のアレンジが採用される。


それから、数年。僕は、彼にひとつのミッションを出す。


デビュー前の浜崎あゆみのレコーディングレッスンとデビュー作品の制作である。


約一年をかけ、その後、浜崎あゆみはデビューする。


「porker face」それは、彼の作曲である。


そして、名曲「A SONG FOR・・・」を彼は生みだした。


以降、浜崎あゆみに数曲、MAXの代表曲「Give me a Shake」も彼の曲だ。


しかし、彼はその後、10年近いスランプに落ち入る。


どれだけ、辛かっただろう。


僕も、忙しく、中々、手をさしのべてあげることができなかった。


現在、小室氏の右腕的存在で、且つガルネクのキーボード、作曲家の鈴木大輔が、


彼の曲ですごく良い曲があると、デモを受け取り、ピンときた。


完全復活、


もしくは、時代が巡ったのかもしれない。


彼が変わったのか、時代が一周したのかはまだわからない。


彼の名を星野靖彦 (←twitter account )という。


浜崎あゆみの次作「moon」の作曲家である。


是非、この曲を聞いて欲しい。

Until「moon」was made...


In the past, when I was still about 24, I was working at my own Record Rental shop,

And someone who was the same age as me, a part-timer, said "My friend's studio has closed, so I got all the equipment, so I will make any song the manager wants!!"

I handed over quite a few of the dance songs that I loved, without expecting much of anything, or should I say, roughly that I forgot all about it with the crushing business of the everyday life.

One day, he gave me a casette tape with the songs that he made.

I closed the shop, and on the way home, I listened to the tape,

Well, the thing I was looking for was still far, but I could feel something.

After that, I went to his house many times, "Not that, not this"

And set on it, I lived out the days where I was finishing the music that I was wishing for.

And after that, from the part-time job, he went to become an employee of Avex, a company that had just been created.

At the time, until the time it was made perfect, eurobeat was a crazy fad, and in order to revive the scene in Japan, even though Avex wasn't a record company at that time, they made a small studio in Machida.

They asked an interior designer friend to help with that aspect, and we, who didn't know a thing about sound proofing, with our own power, made a studio.

And, immediately, avex trax was started.

The studio that was like a hand made thing, named HI BPM Studio, and after all, it looked like something close to a toy I had.

The time I was in the studio the most was probably that time.

So that we could have a flawless EUROBEAT master, just making a kick sound took so many months that I can't even recall.

And then, finally went to the real place of Milano, Italy,

And that guy worked at the studio of a EUROBEAT maestro, Divo Rogers, for about one month, and they came home to Japan.

His eurobeat compositions, they've been compilated in Super Eurobeat countless times.

That time, we made music that people couldn't tell was Japanese.

And then, the world moved towards the era of Techno, and the world was a bubble.

Juliana Tokyo was an overwhelming and unequaled monster.

And he, without hesitation, entered into the work of Techno.

And the representative song was, a song that everyone knows, "Can't undo this!!"

Yes, at a new point in my memory, it was the original song that DJ OZMA covered in I RAVE U.

After that, he used the names of Stargaze and Maximizer, and created hits for Juliana.

At the time, the same way, Komuro started to have an interest in Techno House, and he debuted TRF.

The one who remixed the debut song "GOING TO DANCE" was him,

Afterwards, it would be the remixing side of work that would change and become the main arrangement of GOING TO DANCE.

Even now in lives, it's his arrangement that they use.

And after that, it was countless years. I gave him one mission.

That mission was to give the yet-debuted Hamasaki Ayumi recording lessons, and to create her debut single.

It took about a year, and after that, Hamasaki Ayumi debuted.

Porker Face (LOL) is his creation.

And after that, he would create the title song "A Song for ××"

After that, he would create numerous songs for Hamasaki Ayui, MAX's representative song "Give me a shake," and others. They were his songs.

But, after that, he spent nearly 10 years fallen in a slump.

How painful that must have been...

Even I was so busy, and I couldn't give him a hand.

And now, Daisuke Suzuki, a person like Komuro's right arm, and Garnet Crow's Keyboard, told me that there was a great song made by him, and gave me a demo of it, and I knew immediately.

It was a complete rebirth.

Or, it might be that the era has turned.

If it was he who changed, or if it was the era that just made a full circle, I don't know.

His name is Hoshino Yasuhiko.

And he is the composer of Hamasaki Ayumi's new work, "MOON."
Please, I want you to hear this song.
