01. キミと僕 (kimi to boku)
(you & me)
Lyrics: ai / Music: nao
Romaji by: cori
Thanks to PonPon for the song! ^^
From the single, "kimi to boku"

namida  egao  futatsu no kokoro  hito wa minna motteru n' da
negai, mayoi, kibou, zokubou  suteru koto wa dekinu kanjou
  Tears, smiles, 2 hearts--everyone has these
  Desires, doubts, hopes, hopelessness--feelings that you can't throw them away

itsuka sekai ga kowarete shimaeba
  konna omoi wa mou motanakute ii no?
daremo ga hitotsu ni naru koto wa dekinai  kanashii kedo
  If someday the world were to be destroyed,
  is it ok not to have these thoughts anymore?
  Everyone can't become one, which is sad..

kimi to boku wa koko de deatta  sukoshi samui aki no yuugure
taisetsu da to omoeru hito ga soba ni ireba aruite yukeru
  You & I met here on a slightly cold autumn evening
  When the person who I think is precious is by my side, I can go on walking

sora yori sunderu manazashi nanda ne
  kimi wa dare yori kizutsukiyasui hito
daichi ni furu ame wa kokoro ni tokete
  kimi to boku no ashita ni naru
  You have bright eyes from the sky, don't you
  You are a person who is easily hurt
  The rain falling on the earth melts into my heart
  & it becomes our tomorrow

"arigatou" to "sayonara" no imi  kitto itsuka wakaru hazu da ne
saigo dake wa akiramenaide  tooku chikaku kimi wo miteru yo
  Someday, we should understand the meaning of "thank you" and "goodbye"
  Only at the end, don't give up--at a distance & closeup, I am looking at you

umarete kita mono, mukiatteru mono
  subete itsuka tabidatsu mono sa
itooshinde kanashindara  soko kara kitto ai ni naru yo
  The people who are born, the people you face,
  everything will someday be a person who goes on a journey
  If we cherish & feel sorry, from there, it'll surely become love

kimi wo itsumademo mamotte yukitai  butsukattemo kizutsuitemo
  I always want to protect you
  Even if we clash, even if we get hurt

kimi to boku wa yume wo motsu no sa  toki no nagare sakarau you ni
seiippai no yuuki daseru yo  namida fuita kimi to boku nara
  You and I have a dream.  Like going against the flow of time,
  we can have the utmost courage, if it's me, who wipes away the tears & you

02. いい日旅立ち
Lyrics & music: Tanimura Shinji
Romaji by: cori
[cori's note: the kanji is 間近 (まぢか), so I romanized it as "madjika."]

yukidoke madjika no kita no sora ni mukai
sugisari shi hibi no yume wo sakebu toki

kaeranu hitotachi atsui mune wo yogiru
semete kyou kara hitorikiri tabi ni deru

a, Nihon no dokoka ni
watashi wo matteru hito ga iru
ii hi tabidachi  yuuyake wo sagashi ni
haha no senaka de kiita uta wo michidzure ni...

misaki no hazure ni shounen wa sakanatsuri
aoi susuki no komichi wo kaeru no ka

watashi wa ima kara omoide wo tsukuru tame
suna ni kareki de kaku tsumori "sayonara" to

a, Nihon no dokoka ni
watashi wo matteru hito ga iru
ii hi tabidachi  hitsujigumo wo sagashi ni
chichi ga oshiete kureta uta wo michidzure ni...

a, Nihon no dokoka ni
watashi wo matteru hito ga iru
ii hi tabidachi  shiawase wo sagashi ni
kodomo no koro ni utatta uta wo michidzure ni

Lyrics: ai / Music: nao
Romaji by: cori

anata to deatte saisho ni kokoro kara ureshiku omotta
jikan no nagare ni tsuite yukitai to omotta
  I met you & at the start, I felt happy from the bottom of my heart
  According to the flow of time, I wish I could go

mabushii asahi no naka ireru KO-HI-  nete iru aida ni
anata no negao totemo totemo atatakai
  In the shining morning day, I brew some coffee, while you're asleep
  Your sleeping face is very, very warm

hanareta kyori ga fuan ni naru  miageru sora mo nayami iro
itsunohika futari tomo ni shiawase ni naremasu you ni inoru yo
  I'm worried about the distance that separates us, even the sky I look up to is a worrisome color
  I pray that someday we can be happy together

saisho no koi wa totemo okubyou  soshite yasashii ne
yatto kidzuita hajimete no yuuki
kotoba wa itsumo bukiyou dakedo  honto no kimochi wa
kawaranai kara  anata wo mamoritai n' da
watashi no mimimoto ni  kikoeta yo
hajimari no uta
  I'm cowardly about a first love, then it's gentle, isn't it
  

anata to koushite te wo tsunaide iru to chiisana shiawase
nakushitakunai  sukoshi kowaku naru no wa naze?
  

ME-RU no henji matte iru to  nazeka kokoro setsunaku naru

06. 約束の日 (yakusoku no hi)
Lyrics: ai & Yamaguchi Hikari / Music: nao
Romaji & English translation by: cori
From the single, "yakusoku no hi"

Shimokitazawa no FA-SUTOFU-DO  ame no hi mita Shibuya no eiga
deatta koro wo omoikaeshita  sukoshi terete ita anata to watashi
  The fast food we had in Shimokitazawa, 
  the movie we saw in Shibuya on a rainy day
  We reminisced about the time we met, and were a bit shy

wasurete'nai yo  hajimete kawashita KISU
wasurete'nai kara ano kotoba mo
tsuyoku, tsuyoku dakishimerarenagara
  daiji na hanashi ga aru tte iwareta
  I don't forget the first time we kissed
  I don't forget those words either
  While you being held by you,
  you told me that you have something important to say:

"kore kara saki issho ni ikite yukou yo"
"honto ni watashi de ii no?" bikkuri shite kiita n' da
"ore ga, shiawase ni suru kara."
  "First of all, let's live together from now on"
  "Will I really do?" I asked, surprised
  "I will make you happy"

"Angel of luck has come"

tooku no sora no futatsu no hoshi ga
  asahi wo abite  mata kirameita
  The 2 stars in the sky far away
  bathe in the morning sun and will shine again

yatto tadoritsuita ne yakusoku no hi
omoide tsumekomi  ie wo deru yo
shiroi, shiroi DORESU ni tsutsumarenagara
  kono kaidan wo hitotsu zutsu nobotta
  The day of promise has finally come, hasn't it
  Packing up the memories, I leave my house
  Wrapped up in my white, white dress,
  I ascend the stairs one by one

kyou wa minna ga "omedetou" tte itte kureta
hakushu to waraigoe ga futari wo tsutsunde kureta
"watashi, shiawase ni naru kara."
  Today everyone said "congratulations" to us
  The claps and the laughter surrounded us
  "Because I will be happy"

sora ni hibiku kyoukai no ne
  toritachi no koe to kasanari kokoro ni toketa
  The bells of the church that ring in the sky
  and the voices of the birds overlap and melt in my heart

totsuzen namida ga hora  konna ni afurete kita yo
arigatou, arigatou no omoi  karadajuu ni michite iku
  Suddenly, I cry, look, [the tears] start to flow
  Thank you; my whole body is full with thankful feelings

gin'iro kawashita yubiwa  totemo, totemo kirei da ne
futari de asu e no tobira wo  sotto sotto hirakou ne
"nee, shiawase ni naru n' da ne"
  The silver rings we exchanged are very, very beautiful, aren't they?
  Let's gently, gently open the door to tomorrow together
  "Hey, we'll be happy, won't we" ^^

"Angels of luck ring bells." 

Lovin' you only forever...
