For Lovers not Fighters Lyrics

Finally getting to that “I’m going to translate the songs I haven’t yet for my 100 song playlist.” Anyway, I love Suika, and this is an arrangement of one of her themes.

I imagine Suika’s talking to herself – or to Reimu because I think Suika has an affinity for Reimu… or her liquor stash…

This song is from Trois Noir, by Alstroemeria Records, Released Comiket 75

TLNote:
自分 is a “pronoun-like word” that can refer to I, you, one, myself, yourself, oneself. I put it into second person because it fits best that way, and it sort of covers all three if you keep open the possibility that she may be talking to herself.
自分に勝てるものは 想いのある自分だけよ
“The only one that can win against yourself is yourself that has emotion.”
Defeating yourself/Winning against yourself generally means defeating the weakness inside of you.

Lyrics: Haruka

壊れそうな想いも 足元見えなくても
立ちすくんでいたって 想いがほら時を作る
弱さは誰にもある 自分ひとりじゃないの
自分に勝てるものは 想いのある自分だけよ

You say your emotions are about to break; you can’t
Find your footing; you’re frozen stiffーbut your emotions will create time.
Everyone has weaknesses, you’re not alone.
The only way you can win against yourself is by having emotion.

ああ離れてゆく 想い数あるのだから
ああそこに居れた 自分感じて

Ah… We’re separating! Because of all this emotion,
Ah… You were able to make it there, so feel it!

It’s Magic.It’s Feeling. Walking for my life.

その気持ちを消せないなら 歩み続ければいい
なくすことを恐れないで 君らしくそのままで
その想いを消すのならば 少し休めばいいよ
また新たな時を作り 歩み始める日まで

If you can’t get rid of those feelings, just keep walking.
Don’t be afraid of loss, just stay the way you are!
If you erase those emotions, you should rest a while,
Until you make a new time, and start walking again!

戦いその日々でも 重なる想いがある
いつかは認めあえる そんな時を信じ続け
苦しくてつらい日も 一人きりじゃないから
自分に勝つのならば 想い強く持つ事だけ

Even through those days of strife, there are overlapping emotions;
Keep believing that sometime they will be acknowledged!
Even through days of pain and suffering, you aren’t alone, so
If you win against yourself, it means you’re holding onto strong emotion!

ああ崩れてゆく 夢も数あるのならば
ああ歩めるのは 自分の想い

Ah… It’s crumbling! If you have all these dreams,
Ah… What keeps you walking are your strong emotions!

It’s Magic.It’s Feeling. Walking for my life.

その気持ちを消せないなら 歩み続ければいい
なくすことを恐れないで 君らしくそのままで
その想いが大事ならば ずっと胸に残せばいいよ
また新たな時を作り 歩み始める日まで

If you can’t get rid of those feelings, just keep walking.
Don’t be afraid of loss, just stay the way you are.
If those emotions are precious, you should leave them in your heart,
Until you make a new time, and start walking again.

It’s Magic.It’s Feeling. Walking for my life.
