Thanks for the translation, tenshi! ♥

Yeap, the lyrics feel a lot like the continuation to crossroad^^

Same sentiments bro. Ayu's lyrics (some of them) really can make me think about myself. new found respect for ayu.

seriously this woman.

[Bad Wolf]

It doesn't sound jilted in English at all you kept up a nice rhythm. The only thing that kind of threw me was switching "have I" -- that's usually used for a question, I think. But! It works in a poetic sense because it can also be used as a statement. Nicely done!

Now.. why the hell is it called Ivy XD

[pommy48]

I love Ivy even more now

All kinds of mistakes have I made
All kinds of incidents have I learned from

I dont know much japanese but I would switch the way you say 'have i' to 'I have' unless they are questions (? i dont know if they are)... it sounds really awkward...

[tenshi no hane]

...I don't know why I didn't just flip the 'I' and 'have' lol. I must've been staring at it for too long XD

*edits*

[TeamAyu2004]

^ lol... like I said, I'm not really good with translation but it sounds better the other way.

She could be asking a question as well, but it would still seem weird, like she is asking the question of herself?

[Bad Wolf]

^ That's what I said, too! XD Glad you were able to explain it better than I could.

[TeamAyu2004]

^ I didnt even see your comment! lol... but yeah, we basically said the same thing...
I also want to know why its called Ivy.
Isnt the chinese translation different, something about love, or something?

[ayu_ready?]

great lyrics!

Will you translate snowy kiss as well? I'm really looking forward to this one

Besides that, I really like Ivy's lyrics, thanks for the translation!!

[stepYOU1234]

I never though I would cry to a song on first listen and be that odd over emotional person. But (apart from having someone I love to share my life with) everything else rings so true.

Ahhh, all the emotions!

[Refix]

Thanks for your effort.
Pretty nice lyric, different style, gladly the 'love' theme is not so come out this time. I like this kind of style.

I've been looking for the lyrics for that and Sweet scar. I've dug up Sweet scar's lyrics (not sure how 100% reliable it is), and once I'm done translating that I'll see if I can find snowy kiss for tenshi to translate :3

[truehappiness]

From Foraver Club or loveayu-hiromi.

"Ironna" is writen in a different way than I'm used to, but it's probably the 'correct' way.

Thanks for the scan!

そうして今ここにいる

あぁ今少しだけ過去を振り返ったよ
そして頷いた後で大きく手を振った
あぁ前を向き直って未来を見つめてるよ
君の居る未来だけを真っ直ぐ見つめてる

まだまだ嫌われていますか
まだ許されはしないですか
まだまだ誤解されていますか
まだ信じてはもらえませんか

君だけは解っていて

あぁ今日懐かしいあの子を見かけたよ
自分だけの道を見つけて進んでた
あぁ遠ざかる背中に精一杯のエールを
送っていたよ見えなくなるまで

色んな笑顔を見ました
色んな涙もありました
色んな道にわかれました

色んなこと　色んなこと

あぁ自分自信さえ幸せに出来ずに
一体誰を幸せに出来ると言うのか
あぁ隣で同じ方向見つめてる
君と掲げたこの愛に胸を張っている

あぁ僕たちはこの限りある時間に
ほんの一瞬さえもう後悔したくない
あぁ長いとは言えない人生の中で
どれだけ心の底から笑えたかどうかだよ

最後は君の笑顔が見たいから

I will once some lyrics show up~ I may have said I won't be updating my LJ anymore but Ayu's lyrics are (usually) too good not to translate XD

----
EDIT: After seeing the official lyrics, I changed "I'm confident of this love which I could speak of with you" to "I'm confident of this love which I hold high with you."

[truehappiness]

They only took a photo of Ivy unfortunately.
