Текст и перевод песни ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION - Yoru o Koete

Yoru o Koete

音楽はあまりに無力なんて常套句に酔っても
世界をただ一ミリでも動かすことは出来るだろうか
悲しみだけが強かにレンズに映るけど
焼き増すだけならフィルムに埋もれるだけだろう
本当にそれで良いのか
本当にここでジ・エンドか
例えば身近な誰かが途方に暮れても
気付いてないような素振りで
見て見ぬふりを出来るだろうか
遠くの街の出来事がニュースになっても
僕らはいつも他人事にして忘れてきたんだ
本当にこれで良いのか
本当にここでジ・エンドか
今 この場所がスタートだ
胸の想いが少し光って
星のない夜を温めた
途切れそうな細いロープを手繰って
闇と瓦礫を掻き分けて
辿り着いたんだ
重油の膜のように漂う悲しみも
光の届かぬ 冷たく深い海の底にも
確かな 命の息吹を
僕らはあまりに無力なんて君が嘆いても
それでも何時かは何かを成し遂げてみたいんだ
現実という名の荒野で迷子になっても
この日々を照らすイメージを
本当にこれで良いのか
本当にここでジ・エンドか
今 この場所がスタートだ
胸の想いが少し光って
星のない夜を温めた
途切れそうな細いロープを手繰って
闇と瓦礫を掻き分けて
辿り着いたんだ

Beyond the Night

Even though they say music is so powerless, and it's normal to drown in those words,
Can it move the world even just a millimeter?
Yet, sadness always seems to be in sharp focus,
If we just keep developing it, it'll all be buried in film,
Are you really okay with this?
Are we really just going to end it here?
Like when someone close to us is at a loss,
We pretend not to notice,
Can we really turn a blind eye?
Even when distant tragedies become news,
We always act like it's someone else's business and forget about it.
Are you really okay with this?
Are we really just going to end it here?
Now, this is where we start,
The feelings in my chest are starting to shine,
Warming this starless night.
Pulling on this thin rope that could snap at any moment,
Through the darkness and rubble,
We've finally arrived.
The sadness that floats like an oil slick,
The unreachable depths of the ocean,
Where light cannot reach,
Even if you lament that we are so powerless,
I still want to achieve something someday.
Even when I get lost in this wasteland called reality,
This image illuminates my path.
Are you really okay with this?
Are we really just going to end it here?
Now, this is where we start,
The feelings in my chest are starting to shine,
Warming this starless night.
Pulling on this thin rope that could snap at any moment,
Through the darkness and rubble,
We've finally arrived.
