Turn Off The Lights

Lyrics By ISSAY

Music By HAL

Japanese

灯りを消してくれ
そしてそばに来てほしい
灯りを消してくれ
全てを見たい

少し暑いくらいの部屋で
もう少し酔ったままでいよう
夜に抱かれながら
漂う時には
心は濡れたままがいい
昼は余計な物ばかりが

目に入って来るから
今はただおまえだけを見つめたい

灯りを消してくれ
そしてそばに来てほしい
灯りを消してくれ
全てを見たいから
灯りを消してくれ
そしてそばにいてほしい
灯りを消してくれ
夜の底に沈んで行こう

静かな暗闇に包まれ
息をひそめていよう
昼と夜とのすき間に
迷い込んでみたい
心は震えたままがいい

生まれたままの気持ちの
恋人達の前では
宇宙は無関心にやさしい

灯りを消してくれ
そしてそばに来てほしい
灯りを消してくれ
全てを見たいから
灯りを消してくれ
そしてそばにいてほしい
灯りを消してくれ
夜の底に沈んで行こう

Turn off the lights for me
Then I want you to come be by my side
Turn off the lights for me
I want to see everything

In a room that’s a little warmer than usual
Let’s stay there being a little drunker than usual
While embraced by the night
When we float
Keep your heart enamoured¹
There’s nothing but unnecessary things in the daytime

You’ll come into my field of view so
Just for now, I want to look at nothing but you

Turn off the lights for me
Then I want you to come be by my side
Turn off the lights for me
Because I want to see everything
Turn off the lights for me
Then I want you to come be by my side
Turn off the lights for me
Let’s sink into the depths of the night

Enveloped in the quiet darkness
Let’s hold our breaths
In the space between day and night
I want to try losing myself
Keeping my heart shaken

In front of lovers
Who feel newly born
The universe is indifferent yet kind

Turn off the lights for me
Then I want you to come be by my side
Turn off the lights for me
Because I want to see everything
Turn off the lights for me
Then I want you to come be by my side
Turn off the lights for me
Let’s sink into the depths of the night

Notes:

¹ 心は濡れた (kokoro wa nureta) a grammatical variant of 濡れた心 (nureta kokoro). If we take the two parts of this phrase literally (濡れた and 心), it appears to mean a “drenched heart”. The actual definition of 濡れた心 is “the desire for an amorous relationship”, thus the lyric translation.

Japanese

砂時計の砂漠のかなた
おきざりのガラクタの中
忘れ去った子供部屋の中
 　　魔法の瞬間は今も生きている
時が過ぎ　夢を忘れて
冬が来て　恋を忘れて
胸がもう　ときめかないなど
 　　悲しいことは言わないで

幻のパレードが君を誘ってる
見えかくれしながら　通り過ぎてく
ついて行こうよ
遠く近い心のすき間に

たそがれの記憶の中で
踏みつけた枯葉の上で
古ぼけたひき出しの中
 　　いつでも君を待っているさ
楽しもうよ　音のかけらで
遊ぼうよ　月の雫で…
踊ろうよ　我を忘れて
 　　このかげろうに包まれて

幻のパレードが君を誘っている
見えかくれしながら　通り過ぎてく
ついて行こうよ
遠く近い心のすき間に

幻のパレードが君を誘ってる
見えかくれしながらそっと唄ってる
幻のパレードが君を待っている
もしも見えているなら　ついて行こうよ
…”Chantez la vie”…

Beyond the hourglass desert
In the abandoned odds and ends
In the forgotten child’s room
A magical moment lives on even now
Time passes　Dreams, forgotten
Winter comes　Love, forgotten
“My heart has lost its spark”
 　　Don’t say such sad things

The illusory parade calls to you
Appearing and disappearing　it passes
Let’s chase after it
Into the crevice of a faraway heart close-by

In memories of twilight
On dead leaves trampled
In an antiquated drawer
 　　It’s always waiting for you
Let’s have fun　in shards of sound
Let’s play　in droplets of the moon…
Let’s dance　and forget ourselves
 　　Wrapped up in this ephemerality

The illusory parade calls to you
Appearing and disappearing　it passes
Let’s chase after it
Into the crevice of a faraway heart close-by

The illusory parade calls to you
Appearing and disappearing while singing softly
The illusory parade awaits you
If you’re able to see it　Let’s chase after it
…”Chantez la vie”…

Light A Fire For Me

Japanese

火をつけてくれ　醒めた体に
火をつけてくれ　両足のつけねに
 　　マグネシウムのビートで
 　　おまえの髪が燃え上がる
こすれ合い　落ちてゆく
 　　昼に　夜に　あえぎ出す程

もう一度　もうー度　火をつけてくれ
もう二度と　もう二度と　立てない位に

火をつけてくれ　汚れた体に
火をつけてくれ　ひからびた時間に
 　　燃え落ちた背中には
 　　冷たい灰が降りそそぐ
すれ違い　溶けてゆく
 　　今日も　明日も　見失う程

もう一度　もう一度　火をつけてくれ
もう何も　もう何も　見えない位に

Light a fire for me　On this wakefull body
Light a fire for me　On the soles of my two feet
 　　With the magnesium beat
 　　Your hair burns up
Chafing together　Falling down
 　　In the day　In the night　So much you’d moan

One more time　One more time　Light a fire for me
Nevermore　Nevermore　Until I can no longer stand

Light a fire for me　On this filthy body
Light a fire for me　On this time that’s dried up
 　　On this burnt out back
 　　Icy cold ash rains down
Crossing paths　Melting down
 　　Even today　Even tomorrow　So much I’d lose sight of it all

One more time　One more time　Light a fire for me
Nothing more　Nothing more　Until I can no longer see

追憶の海の上で
時間がゆらめいてる
幾千の夜と　幾億の星が
そっと波間を流れてゆく

はかない夢と声が
白い砂丘を作っていた
ひととき　ひととき生まれてゆく
砂粒は想いのかけら

風を受け揺れる砂に　声を返す
魂のため息に　声を返す

僕は体をなくし
声だけ残って木霊になった
静けさの中でまたたきもせず
終わり　そして始まる

風を受け揺れる砂に　声を返す
魂のため息に　声を返す
風を受け揺れる砂に　声を返す
魂のため息に　声を返す

On the sea of reminiscence
Time shimmers softly
Thousands of nights and　hundreds upon millions of stars
Gently flow through the waves

Fleeting dreams and voices
Made white sand dunes
Moment　by moment, coming into this world
Sand grains that are fragments of thoughts

To the sand shifting in the winds　I return my voice
To the sighs of souls　I return my voice

I lose my physical form
Only my voice remains, turning into an echo
In the tranquillity, without blinking at all
Endings　and then, beginnings

To the sand shifting in the winds　I return my voice
To the sighs of souls　I return my voice
To the sand shifting in the winds　I return my voice
To the sighs of souls　I return my voice
