[romaji and translation] glitter

[masa]

I'm not sure if the English parts are correct.
------------------------------------------------
Kono natsu bokutachi wa yori tsuyoku kagayaki o masu
Ima o tada daiji ni shite

Omoidashite ru kyonen no imagoro to
Tooi mukashi no imagoro no koto to ka
Kekkyoku hoshii mono wa kawatte nai
Yes, still believe in love!!

Ano hi hitori de namida shite ta yoru o
Ima demo yake ni hakkiri oboete ru
Dakedo koukai nante shite nai n da
Yes, cause believe in love!!

Wow wow wow, Otona ni natta?
No no no, Zannen nagara
Wow wow wow, Mada mada kasoku wa tomaranai

* Kono natsu bokutachi wa yori tsuyoku kagayaki o masu
Odoridasu kodou o tashika ni kanjiru
Bokutachi no mirai ga doko e mukatte ru to shite mo
Ima o tada daiji ni shite

Kawatta mono wa ittai nan darou
Kanashii toki ni nakenaku natta koto
Kanashii toki ni nakenaku natta koto
So, I'll be with you!!

Wow wow wow, Taisetsu na mono wa
Yeah yeah yeah, Kimi no egao
Wow wow wow, Sono tame ni wa sora mo toberu hazu

Kono natsu bokutachi no atarashii tabi ga hajimaru
Tooku no munasawagi kasuka ni kikoeru
Bokutachi ga yume miru ano basho e tsuzuku michi o
Kyou mo mata sagashi ni ikou

Kimi no egao no wake kimi no sono kotoba no imi mo
Nee chanto wakatte iru tsumori da kara

* (repeat)
--------------------------------------------------
We will shine more brightly this summer
Just making the most of the present

I'm remembering this time last year
And this time long ago
What I want has not changed after all
Yes, still believe in love!!

Strangely I remember clearly
The night when I was weeping alone
But I have no regrets
Yes, cause believe in love!!

Wow wow wow, Have you become an adult?
No no no, Unfortunately
Wow wow wow, But I don't stop the acceleration yet

* We will shine more brightly this summer
We certainly feel our heartbeats of excitement
Wherever we may go in future
Please just make the most of the present

What exactly is the change?
That I can't cry in sad times
That I can't cry in sad times
So, I'll be with you!!

Wow wow wow, What is precious
Yeah yeah yeah, Is your smile
Wow wow wow, I feel sure I can fly for the sake of it

Our new journey will start this summer
I faintly sense uneasiness in the distance
Let's go to find the way again today
To that place we are dreaming of

You see? I think I know for certain
The reason of your smile and the meaning of your words

* (repeat)

thanks for the translation

exitement -> excitement

"glitter" is often used with minus image

Huh?

I remember strangely clearly

Hm.. that sounds iffy.. You should put it "Strangely I remember clearly" or "I strangely remember clearly".... I remember strangely clearly sounds slightly.. akward.

To that place we are dreaming

I think this should be "To that place we are dreaming of"

Wherever we may go in future
Please just make much of the present

I think it sounds better if you say "Please just make the most of the present" ... also I think "in future" sounds more normal as "in the future" but I think "in future" isn't gramatically incorrect either

Other than that, awesome! Thanks

[Calico]

Thank you masa! I just noticed a few things too =)

"Wo wo wo, I've become adult
No no no, Unfortunately
Wo wo wo, But I don't yet stop the acceleration"

I've become adult --> I've become an adult (?) I think a noun would work better here than just an adjective. Otherwise a word change would probably be in order.

But I don't yet stop the acceleration --> But I won't stop the acceleration yet. What you have sounds rather awkward, but what I wrote isn't all that much better. "yet" isn't often seen in the middle of sentences.

Otherwise it's awesome! =)

Thanks Masa

[haruki]

tnx for the lyrics

[makie_7]

thanks a lot for the lyrics!!!!

[masa]

Thanks for your advices. I change these parts and edit my first post.

Just making much of the present --> Just making the most of the present
I remember strangely clearly --> Strangely I remember clearly
I've become adult --> I've become an adult
I don't yet stop the acceleration --> I don't stop the acceleration yet
To the place we are dreaming --> To the place we are dreaming of

[Kumichan]

Uh~ Thanks masa. Nice Job!
I love glitter. It's one of the best summer song from Ayu. ^^

Well, glitter is shiny so I guess it is kind of appropriate.
Thanks for the translation.

[jon_the_d]

glitter is definitely an appropriate title.

anyway, masa, from my question to you on the thread on AYUNITE! why does the one line use please and the other not?

you still didn't answer this question.

can I ask something? obviously my japanese is not very good, but in the first verse you translate "Ima o tada daiji ni shite" as :
"Just making the most of the present"
but later you translate the same(?) sentence as:
"Please just make the most of the present "


can you help me understand the differnece please?

glitter is definitely appropriate!

anyway, masa, can you explain why for this part:

in the first verse you translate "Ima o tada daiji ni shite" as :
"Just making the most of the present"
but later you translate the same(?) sentence as:
"Please just make the most of the present "


can you help me understand the difference please? why do you use please in second time?

[masa]

Really? So it seems I misunderstood the image of the word "glitter". I delete my question in my first post.

>I think it sounds better if you say "Please just make the most of the present".
Why do you think so? And why do you think "Please just make much of the present" is not appropriate. (I changed my mind to clarify this.)

[truehappiness]

Please make much of the present isn't grammatically correct in the English language.

Exactly If you said to someone "Let's make much of our trip!" they would most likely not really understand what you mean. If you say "Let's make the most of it!" it really sounds right. "To make the most of something" is an english expression/idiom

[AyuGAME]

thanks for rody and masa for translate it

[masa]

I'm still confused, but it's OK. Thanks for the explanations.

[Ani_C]
