[Translation] alan - Over the clouds

[Ayu_no_tenshi]

someone asked me to translate this song for them, so i thought i might as well share it here too. i'm not very good at translating songs, however. i find it hard to express the original feeling poetically from the japanese into english. anyway, here it is. please don't criticize it too much. >.< hehe

-JAPANESE-

悲しみに濡れた月が静かに
大地を赤く赤く染めて消える

僕の声が聞こえますか
殺伐としたこの時代で
僕は僕でいられますか

ココロ溢れ出す涙は
きっと未来を求めてる証なの
今の無力を嘆かないで前を見つめて
you can get over
over the clouds

季節を移ろう風のざわめき
終わりの見えない戦いへの序曲

人はなぜに忘れてくの
ありきたりのこの日常に
かけがえのないものがあると

ボロボロになった羽根でも
誰かを想うその気持ちがあるなら
どんな苦しみに向かっても飛んで行けるさ
you can get over
over the clouds

僕の声が聞こえますか
殺伐としたこの時代で
僕は僕でいられますか

ココロ溢れ出す涙は
きっと未来を求めてる証なの

ボロボロになった羽根でも
誰かを想うその気持ちがあるなら
どんな苦しみに向かっても飛んで行けるさ

you can get over
over the clouds
you can get over
over the clouds

ナガルルチシオハ　　　イノチノヒカリ
ヤミヨニトモルハ　　　イノチノヒカリ

-ENGLISH-

the moon that was soaked in sadness
will silently color the earth red and disappear

can you hear my voice?
can i allow myself to be
in such a brutal time as this?

the tears that overflow my heart
are surely seeking proof of a future
don't grieve the helplessness of now, look in front of you
you can get over
over the clouds

the stirring of the wind that will change the season
is a prelude of the struggle with no end in sight

how can people go on to forget?
in this ordinary everyday
there are irreplaceable things

if you are able to think of someone else
even with your wings that have become tattered
no matter what kind of suffering you face, you will be able to go on flying
you can get over
over the clouds

can you hear my voice?
can i allow myself to be
in such a brutal time as this?

the tears that overflow my heart
are surely seeking proof of a future

if you are able to think of someone else
even with your wings that have become tattered
you will be able to go on flying, no matter what kind of suffering you face

you can get over
over the clouds
you can get over
over the clouds

continuously circulating　　　is the light of life
lighting up the dark night　　　is the light of life
