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

Yoru Wo 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 if I'm intoxicated by the cliche that music is powerless,
Could it move the world, even if just by a millimeter, my love?
Only sadness is strongly reflected in the lens,
But just reprinting it will only bury it in the film.

Is this really okay?
Is this really the end here, darling?

For example, even if someone close to me is at a loss,
Pretending not to notice,
Could I turn a blind eye?
Even if events in a distant city become news,
We've always treated them as someone else's problem and forgotten them.

Is this really okay?
Is this really the end here?
Now, this place is the start.

The feelings in my chest glowed a little,
Warming the starless night.
Pulling on a thin, fraying rope,
Pushing through the darkness and rubble,
I finally arrived.

Even the sadness that drifts like a film of crude oil,
Even in the cold, deep bottom of the sea where light doesn't reach,
A sure sign of life's breath.

Even if you lament that we are too powerless,
Still, someday I want to accomplish something.
Even if I get lost in the wilderness called reality,
The image that illuminates these days.

Is this really okay?
Is this really the end here?
Now, this place is the start.

The feelings in my chest glowed a little,
Warming the starless night.
Pulling on a thin, fraying rope,
Pushing through the darkness and rubble,
I finally arrived.
