I have translated them all. I have put the tracklisting + translations in the spoiler.

Now I see that dutch and german have a lot in common.

A Song for Xx - Een lied voor xx / Een liedje voor xx
A/an (een) lied (song. Sometimes dutch people use the term 'liedje,' this just sounds sweeter and nicer. It means both the same.) for (voor)
Spoiler:

Prologue - Proloog
A Song for Xx - Een lied voor xx / Een liedje voor xx
Hana / Flower - Bloem
FRIEND (II) - Vriend / vriendin
I don't know to who Ayu sang in this song. But a 'vriend' is a male friend. 'Vriendin' a female friend.
Poker Face - Poker Face
The dutches also use this term. It literally means 'spelen met een gezicht waarvan niets af te lezen is' or 'playing with a face without showing any emotion. The way how you play poker. The game poker is still called poker in our language.
Wishing - Wensen / Wensing.
You use 'wensen' in the sentence 'I have been wishing' or 'I wish', yes as a verb. 'Wensing' is no verb, and you will use it when you read 'The Wishing' or 'The Wish' (then you can also tranlate it as 'Wens')
YOU - Jij
As if... - Als...
POWDER SNOW - Poeder Sneeuw
Trust - Vertrouwen
Depend on you - Afhankelijk van jou / Het hangt van jou af
This also depends on what sentence you use: If you use 'I am depend on you, you use the first dutch sentence. It depends on you means the last sentence.
Signal - Signaal
From your letter - uit jouw brief
For My Dear... - voor mijn liefste...
Present - Geschenk


LOVEppears - LOVE = liefde. appears = verschijningen. Combination: Liefdesverschijningen.
Spoiler:

Trauma - Trauma
And then - En dan
Immature - onvolwassen
Mature means 'volwassen'
Boys & Girls - Jongens & Meisjes
TO BE - Te zijn
The dutch people don't use 'to' for a verb. TO BE means 'zijn' but for a title it sounds nicer if you put 'te' in it.
End Roll Laatste roffel
-I was not sure what 'roll' in this title must be. A 'roffel' is what you do on drums.
P.S.II - Poeder Sneew 2
WHATEVER - Nou en / wat kan mij 't schelen.
We don't really have a word. But we often say the two sentences I just mentioned
too late - te laat

eenkleurig means 'onecolor', zwart-wit means 'Black-white'

Spoiler:

Everlasting Dream - eeuwigdurende droom
WE WISH - we wensen
Real me - echte ik
Free & Easy - vrij & welgesteld
Heartplace - Plaats van het hart
If we can't combine the words, we just make a sentence of it. This literally means 'place of the heart' or 'the heart's place.' My apologizes if my english grammar sucks.

You can say 'door jou,' and lots of people do say that. But if you puts 'het komt' before it, you have a nice and correct line.
ourselves - ons
Hanabi ~episode II~ - vuurwerk ~aflevering twee~
Well. Episode means 'aflevering' but we use that for series on tv. For a song you can call it 'deel' 2, what means 'part' 2.
