変化はとても素敵な事だけど
自分を失くすって意味じゃない

Change is a wonderful thing
but it doesn't mean losing yourself

根っこにあるこれまでもこれからも
貫ける自分があってこそ
nekko ni aru koremade mo korekara mo
tsuranukeru jibun ga atte koso

It has a point
only if you can hold on to what you have
at your root until now and from now on

確かに限界を感じて何もかもに背を向けて
うずくまっていた日々もあったけれど
tashikani genkai wo kanjite nanimo kamoni se wo mukete
uzukumatteita hibi mo attakeredo

Certainly there were the days
when I felt my limits, turned my back on everything, and crouched down

(*1) もう迷ったりしない　
後悔なんて無い
あなたと出会うのは運命だったの
mou mayottari shinai
koukai nante nai
anata to deau nowa unmei dattano

I won't get lost anymore
I don't have any regrets
It was my destiny that I meet up with you
(*1 end)

あたしである意味を
存在する意義を
与えて教えてくれるのはいつもあなただから
atashi de aru imi wo
sonzai suru igi wo
ataete oshiete kureru no wa itsumo anata dakara

The meaning of my being
The significance of my existing
The one who gives and teaches me them is always you
and that's why

だけどね時々顔も見たくないくらい
憎たらしい日もあるから
もう二度とこの視界に入らないでなんて思うこともあるの
dakedone tokidoki kao mo mitaku nai kurai
nikutarashii hi mo arukara
mou nidoto kono shikai ni hairanaide nannte omou kotomo aruno

However sometimes
there is a day when I hate you so much
that I don't want to see your face
Sometimes I even want you to never come into my sight again

だからって離れてしまえるわけでもない
結局どんな時も一番そばにいて欲しい
dakaratte hanarete shimaeru wake demo nai
kekkyoku donnna tokimo ichiban sobani ite hoshii

Nevertheless I can't step away
After all I want you first by my side anytime

(*2) 重力に押されて　
引力に引かれて
あなたと出会うのは必然だったの
juuryoku ni osarete
inryoku ni hikarete
anata to deau no wa hitsuzen dattano

Pushed by gravity
Pulled by attraction force
It was the inevitable that I meet up with you

何も逆らえない　
敬服するしかない
わかってる　あなた無しの私は私じゃない
nani mo sakaraenai
keihuku suru shikanai
wakatteru anata nashi no atashi wa atashi janai

Cannot go against
Cannot do anything but respect
I know that without you I'm not me
(*2 end)

もし完璧なメロディーがあるなら
あたしはまだ出会いたくない
moshi kanpekina melody ga aru nara
atashi wa mada deaitaku nai

Should there be a perfect melody,
I won't like to meet up with it yet

repeat (*1)

あたしである意味を
存在する意義を
与えて教えてくれる　あなたが
atashi de aru imi wo
sonnzai suru igi wo
ataete oshiete kureru anata ga

The meaning of my being
The significance of my existing
Who gives and teaches me them is you

repeat (*2)

Thanks for this > yes, oji-i-san hit the nail on the head with that one

Regarding "sight",
firstly I think it's sometimes OK to use less-colloquial words/expressions in our translation because ayu's original lyrics sounds less-colloquial/less-chatty sometimes even to Japanese people. Words like 視界, 重力, 敬服 and a kind of philosophical phrases like 私である意味, 存在する意義 are the examples.

And another thing to consider here is that we need to differentiate between "kao mo mitaku nai / 顔も見たくない" and "kono shikai ni hairanaide / この視界に入らないで". Because ayu repeats one idea twice in different expressions, we need to do the same, and in this case the second expression is less-colloquial than the first one. How does this explanation sound?

well, i found something interesting... in my dictionary [Xの顔など見たくも無い] is [cannot stand the sight of X] which i think sounds better than the literal translation of [i don't want to see your face]
that being the case,

there are times i hate you so much
i can't stand the sight of you
sometimes i even think to myself
that i never want to see you again

because the literal translation is [never enter into my sight ever again]
but as we've used the word -sight- previously, i personally think it's ok to switch it like this... and you?
