[romaji & translation] Microphone

[Abby]

Such a powerful song...wow...

Thanks for the translation (both ^_~)

* Pushed by gravity, pulled by attractive force
I met you by necessity
I can't go against you, but just admire you
I know that I'm not myself without you

Those are my favorite lyrics in Microphone so far!! Thank you, masa!!

>追伸：マサさん、ファースト・サビは２回目に「与えて教えてくれる…　あなたが」で終わりますのでご注意 く ださい。
Oh, I didn't notice that. I corrected the parts. (You seem good at writing Japanese, too.)

I also changed some parts of my translation. Thanks for your suggestions.
To change --> Change
crouched --> crouched down
I’ll not --> I won’t
you've always given and taught me --> you always give and teach me

that's ok... also, i feel that if you are taking [迷う] in the sense of [躊躇う], u should use [hesitate] instead of [waver], the former sounding more appriopriate with regard to lyrics, the latter is too literary and sounds out of place...

the chorus is difficult to translate, it's true...
the significance of my existance is indeed far too cumbersome, for want of a better word... i guess a shorter version which attempt to convey all nuances could be...

I won't hesitate any more, I have no regrets
It was destiny for us to meet
Because the one who always gives me a reason to be myself
and who teaches me how to live my life
is you

[rakeru]

I assume she's speaking to her music,
which is a very cool approach to describing it as well as confronting it.

[CHE.R.RY]

I like the lyrics...I can relate to this song in a lot of ways .

Wow, that's an interesting way to look at it! I didn't even consider that .

[somethinglost]

I like this song a lot. Thank you for the translation and romaji.

[amorphose]

Thanks for the translation! I ABSOLUTELY love the fact you translated it like "my raison d'etre." That makes it feel way more epic. haha

[waterballoon]

Thank you masa & appears!

[masa]

You are welcome.

Actually, "raison d'etre" is a phrase known to Japanese people, too. So I prefered to take it rather than "the significance of my existence", which I feel rather long and heavy. But if many people think the latter is better, I'm ready to change the part.
