Kono goro choushi chotto tsukame naku te
Ikete nai jibun ga i tari

Nanikato koto ga urame ni de cha ttari
Shi tsuzukete ru jibun ga i tari

Dakara tte wake ja naku tte
Nageyari nanka ja naku tte
Yorokobi o kanashimi no
Gisei ni nante shi nai de ne

** Kyou no kimi ga tatoe donna ni
Kakkowaruku te nandakanda to
Hekonde mo kuyande mo
Hi wa mata noboru

*** Te ka ne atashi wa sonna kimi demo
Anna kimi demo uketomete ku yo
Kekkyoku ne donna kimi mo suki

* (repeat)

Kodomo no koro ni yoku egaite ita
Otona tte konna n datta kke

Risou ya yosou to wa kakehanareta
Hibi o sugosu jibun ga iru ne

Dakara tte wake ja naku tte
Nageyari nanka ja naku tte
Jinsei wa ichido kiri
Kesshite wasure nai de ne

Ashita no kimi ga shiawase da yo to
Itte waratte kure tari shi tara
Sore dake de nanka zenbu
Ikeru ki ga suru

Daijoubu da tte nan no konkyo mo
Naku te ii kara unazuite mite
Sore koso ga bokura no yuuki

Lately, you may not be able to find your rhythm, somehow
You may feel you are uncool

You may be pressing the wrong buttons
One after another

But not because of this
And not with resignation
Please don't sacrifice joy
For sadness

** However uncool you may be today
And even if you may feel down
And regret with this and that
The sun also rises

*** Or more like
I'll accept you like this and like that
In other words, I like you in any time

* (repeat)

You may wonder, "Is this an adult?
Is this what I often imagined in my childhood?"

You are spending the days
Far away from your ideal and expectation, aren't you?

But not because of this
And not with resignation
Please never forget
That life is only once

If you say you are happy
And give me a smile tomorrow
I feel like somehow
That everything goes well

Say it's all right and nod your head
No problem even if you have no basis
That's really our courage

* (repeat)
** (repeat)
*** (repeat)
* (repeat)
* (repeat)

thank you for the translation masa!!!

i also wonder why it's titeled EnergizE... maybe she means we should cheer up??

and one question, shouldn't it be
"You yourself may feel uncool"
instead of "You may feel yourself uncool" ?? or am i missing something with the meaning...?

[love in music]

thank you. i'm so happy with ayu's lyrics for her NL songs.

[ayuni]

Thanks for the translation masa! :]

[kendelle]

Thanks so much again masa!!


I really like these lyrics, they're simple yet have a great message for accepting yourself ^_^


I have a few suggestions for the English lyrics though

You may not be able to find your rhythm somehow lately
You may feel yourself uncool

Maybe change to Lately you may not be able to find your rhythm, somehow
You may feel that you're uncool

You may wonder if such is an adult
That you would often imagined in your childhood

You may wonder: if this is an adult
Is this what you often imagine in childhood

I'm not sure if this has the same feeling as the Japanese lyrics, but in English this would be adequate to say "If this is my adulthood, is it what I imagined adulthood would be like when I was a child?"


It must be a very difficult process to translate all of these feelings into English, but especially with the second quote I picked, it doesn't read very naturally in English I get the feeling of her meaning but it's difficult to put into words!

[orchidcolors]

Thanks for the translations, masa. They are much appreciated.

[freedreamer]
