[Lyrics] Ivy
 

Ivy

All kinds of things happened
All kinds of mornings I have greeted
All kinds of loves I have run into
All kinds of shapes those loves had

All kinds of sins I have committed
All kinds of people I have hurt
All kinds of mistakes I have made
All kinds of incidents I have learned from

And now, in this way, I am here

I reminisced over the past just a little
And then I gave a nod and waved my hand to it
I turn back to the front and stare at the future now
I'm looking straight at the future with you in it

Am I still being hated?
Am I still not forgiven?
Am I still being misunderstood?
Am I still not being trusted?

Only you understand me

I saw that dear-old girl today
She moved forward, having found her own path
To her receding back, I wished her the best
As loud as I could until she was out of sight

All kinds of smiles I have seen
All kinds of tears there were too
All kinds of roads diverged
All kinds of things, all kinds of things

Who in the world could I bring happiness
If I can't even be happy myself?
You're by my side, looking in the same direction
I'm confident of this love which I hold high with you

In this limited time of ours
We don't want to feel regret for even a second
In this life which is hardly long
It's about how often we have smiled from the bottom of our hearts

At the end I want to see your smile, that's why


T/N: The word order might seem a little strange in the first 2 stanzas but I wanted to keep "All kinds of ..." at the start of the sentence because that's something which stands out in the original Japanese lyrics. I think it sounds alright, or is it too strange?

official lyrics: (thanks to truehappiness & chocopockymaster)


romaji: (thanks to chocopockymaster)

makes me love ivy more !!! thank you... this is the best song of the year !!

Thank you so much for this tensi no hane. You're wonderful :)
The lyric seems so sincere of what Ayu's feeling rite now. As if it's about this whole Maro scandal.

It's nice to see a different style of lyric after a while. It really resonates with myself.

I haven't listened to this song yet but the lyrics are really sweet. I also see some crossroad vibes here and there which I like very much :3 I also like this style she used for the song. I also use similar writing style sometimes for my own lyrics. It's fun and makes the song even more simple and poetic than with my usual writing style.

Thanks for the translation, tenshi! ♥

Wow, great lyrics! Looking forward to seeing snowy kiss translated, mmm~

Thank you very much for this translation! These lyrics are awesome!~

I haven't heard the song yet either, but these lyrics own my life right this moment.

It's nice to have an album like this released...right when...similar things are happening in my life lol

Romaji:

Ironna koto ga arimashita
Ironna asa wo mukaemashita
Ironna ai ni deaimashita
Ironna katachi ga arimashita

Ironna tsumi wo okashimashita
Ironna hito wo kizutsukemashita
Ironna machigai mo arimashita
Ironna dekigoto manabimashita

Soushite ima koko ni iru

Ah- Ima sukoshi dake kako wo furikaetta yo
Soshite [unazuitatta to de] okiku te wo futta [brackets are that i am not sure]
Ah - Mae wo mukinaotte mirai wo mitsumeteru yo
Kimi no iru mirai dake wo massugu mitsume teru

Madamada kirawarete imasu ka
Mada yurusare wa shinaidesu ka
Madamada gokai sareteimasu ka
Mada shinjite moraemasen ka

Kimi dake wa wakatte ite

Ah - Kyou natsukashii ano ko wo mikaketa yo
Jibun dake no michi wo mitsukete susundeta
Ah - Touzakaru senaka ni seiippai no eru wo
Okutte ita yo mienaku naru made

Ironna egao wo mimashita
Ironna namida mo arimashita
Ironna michi ni wakaremashita
Ironna koto ironna koto

Ah - Jibun jishin sae shiawaseni dekizu ni
Ittai dare wo shiawaseni dekiru to iu no ka
Ah - Tonari de onaji houkou wo mitsumeteru
Kimi to katareta kono ai ni mune wo hatte iru

Ah - Boku tachi wa kono kagiri aru jikan ni
Hon no isshun sae mou koukai shitakunai
Ah - Nagai to wa ienai jinsei no naka de
Dore dake kokoro no soko kara waratta ka dou kada yo

Saigo wa kimi no egao ga mitai kara
