Kalmia by GACKT
僕はただ歪んでゆく街を 遠くから眺めていた
Boku wa tada yugandeyuku machi wo tooku kara nagameteita
I was just gazing at the distorted streets from afar.
音は何も聞こえない 首のない人形がたくさん笑ってる
Oto wa nani mo kikoenai kubi no nai ningyou takusan waratteru
I can’t hear any sounds, [but] many neck-less dolls are laughing.
宇宙へ還っていく すべては宇宙へ
(Sora) e kaetteiku subete wa (sora) e
Returning to the sky, everything [goes] to the sky
君も生まれた場所へ 泣き叫びながら
Kimi mo umareta basho e naikisakebinagara
[Even] you, to the place you were born, while crying and shouting.
君の叫び声が 小鳥の群れに…絡む 螺旋のまま
Kimi no sakebi koe ga kotori no mure ni…karamu rasen no mama
[As if it is a spiral], your screaming voice entwines [with] a flock of small birds.
すべては消えてゆく
Subete wa kieteyuku
Everything is vanishing.
こぼれた涙を受け止めたときに
Koboreta namida wo uketometa toki ni
When I caught the overflowing tears,
砕けてゆく音まで 僕の躯に流れ落ちた
Kudaketeyuku oto made boku no karada ni nagareochita
until [the sound of breaking], they ran down my body.
カルミアの黄昏は 溶け合うほど熱くなって…
Karumia no tasogare wa tokeau hodo atsuku natte…
The kalmia’s twilight becomes so hot that it melts into one…
僕の笑い声は 喜劇のように…
Boku no warai koe wa kigeki no you ni…
Like a comedy, my [voice laughs]…
夜明けのまばたきは 誰より優しくて
Yoake no mabataki wa dare yori yasashikute
The twinkle of dawn is kinder than anyone.
飛び散るガラスの奏でる音色に 眠りを邪魔された
Tobichiru garasu no kanaderu neiro ni nemuri wo jama sareta
[My] sleep was interrupted by the [rehearsed] tone of shattering glass.
冷たい月が泣き叫ぶ 最期の祈りは一雫の雨
Tsumetai tsuki ga nakisakebu saigo no inori wa hitoshizugu no ame
The cold moon cries out, [my] final prayer is a drop of rain.
夜明けのさよならは 今の僕には哀しすぎて
Yoake no sayonara wa ima no boku ni wa kanashisugite
For me now, the dawn’s goodbye is too sad.
Boku wa tada yugandeyuku machi wo tooku kara nagameteita

君は… ボクの… 番人だ
Kimi wa…boku no…bannin da
You are…my…[master******].
* “Boku” literally means “I”, but I believe it is being used as a euphemism for his…you-know-what. So basically anywhere you see “boku” in capitals, this idea can be applied.
**Literally, “long nails made me stand up”….I went with a colloquial English equivalent.
*** Literally, “keep control over myself.” But because the MASU in “irareMASU” is in katakana, it stands out. “Masu” is one way to say “masturbation”, so I tried to combine the two ideas in the translation.
****Literally, “surrounded in white flowers”. But the “iku” seems to have emphasis in the song….and also means “to cum” in colloquial Japanese….I think this line is symbolic of…..you know…WHITE…..”coming”….yeah.
*****These parts are supposedly sung in English and are written that way in the official lyrics booklets…BUT, many Japanese people really think that the way Gackt sings the “English” sounds like Japanese. So, I left the “original English” but in ( ), I put the “Japanese” translation of what it sounds like to natives. This makes more sense to me, because the English doesn’t.
****** Literally “guard” or “watchman”. I didn’t like either translation, so I thought maybe “keeper”…but then that just made me think of an S&M situation…so “master” seemed more appropriate for the subject matter.
Kimi wa seijitsu na moralist kirei na yubi de BOKU wo nazoru
You’re an honest moralist, you trace it* with pretty fingers.
僕は純粋なterrorist キミの想うがままに 革命が起きる

君は… ボクの… 番人だ
Kimi wa…boku no…bannin da
You are…my…[master******].
* “Boku” literally means “I”, but I believe it is being used as a euphemism for his…you-know-what. So basically anywhere you see “boku” in capitals, this idea can be applied.
**Literally, “long nails made me stand up”….I went with a colloquial English equivalent.
*** Literally, “keep control over myself.” But because the MASU in “irareMASU” is in katakana, it stands out. “Masu” is one way to say “masturbation”, so I tried to combine the two ideas in the translation.
****Literally, “surrounded in white flowers”. But the “iku” seems to have emphasis in the song….and also means “to cum” in colloquial Japanese….I think this line is symbolic of…..you know…WHITE…..”coming”….yeah.
*****These parts are supposedly sung in English and are written that way in the official lyrics booklets…BUT, many Japanese people really think that the way Gackt sings the “English” sounds like Japanese. So, I left the “original English” but in ( ), I put the “Japanese” translation of what it sounds like to natives. This makes more sense to me, because the English doesn’t.
****** Literally “guard” or “watchman”. I didn’t like either translation, so I thought maybe “keeper”…but then that just made me think of an S&M situation…so “master” seemed more appropriate for the subject matter.
