glitter
english by Rody

From this summer we will shine more strongly.
That's important now

Memories of a year have passed, and seem so distant now
Eventually, what you desire will be yours. Yes, I still believe in love
I remember awfully well, that I cried on that lonely night
However, I don't feel sad no more. Yes, 'cause I believe in love (?)

wow wow wow ~ I've grown up
no no no ~ although that's too bad
wow wow wow ~ there's so much more to come, I haven't stopped!

From this summer we will shine more strongly.
Dance to the beat, experience it,
For our future awaites us
That's important now

I guess different times will come, but you mustn't shed tears
You shouldn't cry in sad times. So I'll be with you

wow wow wow ~ what's precious
yea yea yea ~ is your smile
wow wow wow ~ for the sake of looking up in the sky (?)

This summer we will start a new adventure
Vague visions will unfold
We will always dream of the path to come
Today aswell, we will search our way

Your smile is what matters, your speech is what matters.
Therefore, I plan to melt away completely

From this summer we will shine more strongly.
Dance to the beat, experience it,
For our future awaites us
That's important now

Japanese (thnx to zeo)

＊この夏僕達はより強く輝きを増す
＊今をただ大事にして。
思い出してる去年の今頃と遠い昔の今頃の事とか
結局欲しい物は変わってない Yes!still believe in love
あの日一人で涙してた夜を今でもやけにはっきり覚えてる
だけど後悔なんてしてないんだ　Yes!~?????????????
wohwohwoh～大人になった　NoNoNO～残念ながら
wohwohwoh～まだまだ加速は止まらない！
＊この夏僕達はより強く輝きを増す
＊踊りだす鼓動を確かに感じる
＊僕達の未来が何処へ向かってるとしても
＊今をただ大事にして
変わったものは一体なんだろう悲しいときに泣けなくなった事
悲しいときに泣けなくなった事　So!I'll Be with you
wohwohwoh～大切なものは　yehyehyeh～君の笑顔
wohwohwoh～そのためには空もとべるはず！
＊この夏僕達の新しい旅が始まる
＊遠くの胸騒ぎ微かに聞こえる
＊僕達が夢見るあの場所へ続く道を
＊今日もまた探しに行こう

＊君の笑顔のわけ　君のその言葉の意味も　ねぇちゃんと解っているつもりだから

＊この夏僕達はより強く輝きを増す
＊踊りだす鼓動を確かに感じる
＊僕達の未来が何処へ向かってるとしても
＊今をただ大事にして

Thank you! I like lyrics and they seem to fit the feel of the song very well!

[kiseki89]

Hmmm looks not bad - do you have the romaji version?

[pinapnut]

thanks for the translation. Like kiseki89 said, the romaji lyrics would be nice too.

[CHAS_AYU]

I think it's:

wow wow wow What's precious yeah yeah yeah Is your smile

I think you got the reading a lil wrong. It's "sora" (sky) not "kara" (empty). ^^ I don't really get the last line of this part though...
Sono tame ni (for this sake) wa sora (sky) mo toberu (can fly) hazu (should, must)

[Maxker]

Thanks Rody! Did you know your like totaly awesom...well now you do

[Rurutia]

the part where you put dots....i think she's saying "yes, girls believe in love"

[BoBo]

omg the lyrics are just amazing ^^ rody 10x very very very much!!!

[987654321987]

wow this is glitter!!
i think the interlude is a bit weird though.
oo and the first english part should be ' yes,still! believe in love'
i know it is not grammitally correct, but it is ayu.

[Beauty4123]

thanks for the translation!

[Jennie Mae]

I hear "Yes, just believe in love"

[orochicloud]

Thanks!

[WillofDusk]

The lyric is amazing, sounds like her message after the Eason Chan inccident.
"Your smiles are the most important thing in the world" sumthing
So sweet, summer! (itz winter in Australia I want fated)

[ayumu24]

Thanks for translating! I'm glad that ayu's lyrics are translated into English and many people can read them.

But there are some parts where the translation is wrongly done. I wanna try to correct them because translation might bring the wrong idea which Ayu herself doesn't intend. That's too sad and should be avoided. Though my english translation is not perfet...

1. 'that's important now' should be something like...
'We are making much of the present time' which means that we should think about the present, not the past.

2. 'Memories of a year have passed, and seem so distant now' to
'I’m remembering summer time of last year and of distant past'

3. 'what you desire will be yours' to
'Eventually what we want still stays the same'

4. 'I guess different times will come, but you mustn't shed tears' to
'I wonder what has changed, and I know its that I cannot cry when I'm sad'

5. 'for the sake of looking up in the sky' to
'for your smile, I can fly into the sky'

6. 'Your smile is what matters, your speech is what matters. Therefore, I plan to melt away completely' to
'I think I understand what you mean with your smile and the words you've just uttered.'
