I've translated the lyrics for the entire "Door" album. As it took me hours on doing this, please credit me if you're posting them elsewhere. And enjoy! =D

masaka no Telepathy (unexpected Telepathy)

A nostalgic sound
And a blue-green
World in which the horizon extends

On the white sand
Are the connected water splashes
If you just close your eyes
See
They will emerge to float around

With you back then
I would go out together
But recently
You don’t invite me at all

The marble orange
Sky in which we ran around
Ahh
Tonight in my heart
I am thinking of running

There were various occasions of meeting
From which I met various people
And among them
I see the one that is you now

“For this vacation
If it is going to be sunny
After so long,” (as you suggested,)
“Shall we go to the sea?”

So just what wind that is blowing after all (that makes you say such things)
(Note: this is an expression which literally means “Just what really happened?”)
Was it that my thoughts possibly have been transmitted to you
By telepathy?

Although I actually had fun
But (out of embarrassment) I couldn’t tell you this
Perhaps these are what
Made me seem not cute

Sitting on the sofa
Even though I just kept watching TV
Nevertheless, holding the cushion
I was very happy (Note: not the exact translation for lack of a better way to phrase this)

How about wearing
The shirt that was bought not long ago
Next Sunday
Hopefully it will be a fine day

Even if they are only feelings
I’m still very glad
In this precious holiday
Let’s just not force ourselves too much

There were various occasions of meeting
From which I met various people
And among them
I am looking at you now

KIRAMEKI AWA (glittering hour)

Now, let’s go
To the flashing sky
If you are ready
Then, let’s go now
I think
There are many things
That you know of, right?
I know the smile you give me
Has meanings in it

After the rain stops
Seven colors (rainbow) appear
There is a beginning anytime
Whenever it is

We can become whatever we want
The goddess of wind tells so
Look up
To the sky
And see
So you’ll know what’s so blue to make you want to embrace it
The summer is
The heart-throbbing feeling
And glittering bubbles

Now, let’s go
To the soft sea
To the water surface which is gentle like a mother
So, let’s go now
As you can hear, the many different sounds there are
In this wonderful world
There is still more to come

In a white pattern
The light starts dancing
And like this
It becomes reborn every day

We can fly to any place we want
The goddess of wind tells us this
See
You and I
Are connected
We now know what it feels like to have tears rushing out
The summer is the morning sun
And shining hour

Behind the laughter
Is strength
And because I know this
I have come to love you

We can become whatever we want
The goddess of wind tells so
Look up
To the sky
And see
So you’ll know what’s so blue to make you want to embrace it
The summer is, the heart-throbbing feeling
And glittering bubbles

PARIS no musume (Paris girl)

Put on some new shoes
That Paris girl
Let’s go to meet her

To that sweet and fragrant city

With the mouth filled with
Delicious cakes
And indulged in the feeling that
As if the dreams are always seen
The heart goes dancing

Come on
Please
With that imagination
Open the Door and see
What appears?

That girl
Who was about to cry
Must be you now

Please be like the fruits
That were just taken off of the trees
And play with happiness
Everything is forgotten
Upon realizing that this isn’t real

What a mysterious city

When it’s late night
I’d always go to talk with you

The blue night sky and full moon

No matter how tired you are
You’d never say a single complaint
Instead you’d listen to me
Thank you for that

The emerald ring
With its beautiful colors
Will protect you

You once
Told me

“Please be happy.”

How difficult it was
To have created a world like this
So why not taste it
And try to enjoy every bit of the flavors

That girl
Who was about to cry
Must be you now

Please be like the fruits
That were just taken off of the trees
And play with happiness
Everything is forgotten
Upon realizing that this isn’t real
So why not laugh a little

What a mysterious city

SAKURABITO (sakura people) (Note: This one has extremely lyrical and sophisticated lyrics, and I’m afraid this complexity cannot be achieved and expressed out entirely in my mere translations.)

Sending my longing in a hauling way
To the faraway you on the other side

The wind quietly
Told the little whisper
And my mind became turbulent

Since a long time ago
I’ve been pursuing you
By wearing flower petals

Ahh
(We’re) Impatiently waiting for spring’s arrival

Hopefully we can meet
When I’m thinking of you today
Suddenly the overwhelming wind
Was all dyed into the color of cherry blossoms

Although there are a lot of unsatisfied desires
We’ve still chosen to stand in here

That never-giving-up
Heart of yours
It must live on

Time flows
It has cleansed everything
And also took away all the things

We’re left with nothing to ask and hope for

Hoping for happiness
Today I’m still calling for you
In these hands
Holds a piece of noble thought
Let it be entrusted to the sky

Wanting to see but cannot see you
But
I want to cherish you
Riding on the wind of spring
Today I continue to think of you

Because nothing is
Exactly alike
In these hands
Holds a piece of noble thought
I went tonight with you

WONDER LAND

The bright moon lit, with the night wind cheering
Now what I care about the most
Is you

A single flower petal, has fallen
In a fluttering way, it dances while falling
Should I give you a phone call (and ask)
“Tomorrow, what are you going to do?”

Let’s soar high and whirl
That’s right, this is the secret wonderland
Let us taste, the vacation of our love

Turning and turning
Hand in hand, let’s dance together now
The next chapter of the dreams from those days
If it’s together with you, I’d love to see it

In just several minutes, as spread out through the phone
Your voice, and breathing rhythm
Made me feel comfortable

During this time the falling continues
And flower petals have filled this place
How great it would be
If I can be a little more candid

Let’s soar high and whirl
That’s right, this is the secret wonderland
Let us keep, the vacation of our love

Time goes around and around
We will find the thing we longed for
Cherishing it, let the dream blossom
And bloom in our hearts

As if floating in the sky
Let the clouds, flow freely
And stay the same way as before

Soaring high and whirling
That’s right, this is we two’s wonderland
Let’s cross through, the waves of love
How unbelievable this may seem

Let’s soar high and whirl
That’s right, this is the secret wonderland
Let us taste, the vacation of our love

Turning and turning
Hand in hand, let’s dance together now
The next chapter of the dreams from those days
Together with you, let’s enjoy it now

fuyu ga hajimaru yo (winter is about to begin)

On your birthday in August
I gave you short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirts
As presents
That was the magic charm I used
So that for this winter and the many ones to come
We can spend it together

Sometimes you’d untie your hair
Sometimes you’d suddenly burst into tears
That can be exciting
And I’d anticipate for surprises

Winter is about to start
Hey, you are by my side again
With a very happy look
The way you drink beer looks really good
I thought I already knew
The many kinds of you
But don’t make me
Careless from now on!

The winter holidays spent by the busy 2 of us
Are only a little more than what two hands (can count)
Even so
The way you carefully hold travel magazines
In front of your chest and
Your smile are so wonderful
And that is good enough

Last year in Christmas
I was still buying cakes
But this year I have
Nothing to be afraid of!

Winter is about to start
When opening the big window
To look at the stars
I will lend my sweater to you
For us 2 to always
Happily stay together
Just what should I do
And I’m trying to come up with some ideas for this

Winter is about to start
Hey, you’re by my side again
The look on your face when you cheered
(At the sight of) the snow in the small TV is really great
I thought I already knew
The many kinds of you
But don’t make me
Careless from now on!

NEROLI

I was once at a loss for words
And when did that happen

There has to be a reason for things
As said by someone
But
I’ve nevertheless forgotten about it
Is this not okay?
Is this not okay?

Sometimes it’s actually a fortune
To not know how things happen
It’s best to not see
It’s best to not hear

But
In order to move forward
This is necessary

Ah Earth
See
That lively blessing
The light brings me back to life
And helps me realize
The tears that pass down on my cheek

At the opportunity when people looked away to other places
I hid myself to not be seen
Even if pretending that I’m lonely
Still stepping on the ground
I’ve kept walking

Because I don’t want to run away

Ah Wind
See
That colorful strength
I’m flowing back to the nature
What answered me
Was the freedom released by the sky

Ah Earth
See
That lively blessing
The light brings me back to life
And helps me realize
The tears that pass down on my cheek

KARAKARA

Because you said you like me
Before I’m aware of it
I also started to like you
Just like the light blue sea
And the soda water
That just suits a summer afternoon

It’s a little sweet and also painful
Just like the course of our love

Looking at you as if I’m addicted
Staring at you
How I want to show it off
I am crazy about you now

The rhythm of ice cubes, and their kalakala sound
Are now gently encompassing both of us
Now and forever, I love you

The things that you like
I always thought that
I should get in touch with them as well
So let me try eating
The red cherries
Afloat in the soda water

Extending time after time
Look, I see a new world once again

Looking at you as if I’m addicted
Staring at you
How I want to show it off
I am crazy about you now

Sometimes I’d fall down
If careless I’d also cry
Even if I’m so useless
Still as always, I love you

Looking at you as if I’m addicted
Staring at you
How I want to show it off
I am crazy about you now

The rhythm of ice cubes, and their kalakala sound
Are now gently encompassing both of us
Now and forever, I love you

koi wo shiteiru (I’m in love)

A light kiss
See
It tells the stories of love

I know that
As always
I’m never alone

Even in the days when I feel low
I’m still that wonderful person
As you’d say

Being in love
And kissing each other
That day when we held hands
As it was right for snow
And also a cold day just like today

Like this
I’m again spending with you together
The same winter

How lovely this is as I felt

I’m in love
From that time, till now
The you that was with a stiff face
And also smiling

Now I’ll say it all out
That you’re my irreplaceable
The one and only
Shining light

“This is really great
This made me so happy”

Saying so
For a while
You lowered your head, and smiled

Because it’s very cold today
We better keep ourselves warm
And say “Delicious”
As we drink down the beer

Like this
The ordinary every day
See, once again
Has saved me

“It’s really great like this.”
As you repeat this sentence
I’d always reflect on
That night in which I cried

We once cried together
And then also laughed
Those are the stories
That belong to us two

I like you very much
Although I haven’t said that to you for a while
Somehow, not sure why
I want to say it to you

The dazzling days
Which are accompanied with your smile
Are to me how life itself is

Now I’ll say it all out
That you’re my irreplaceable
The one and only
Shining light

This winter
I’m glad that I’ve met you

gladiolus

“You had been in a wonderful
Love relationship.”

When I hear someone say this to me
My tears would begin to overflow

Forget about it
Forget about it
I kept persuading myself like that

Not knowing when
The precious feeling is also gone

The setting sun
Is always so beautiful
Because the sceneries once seen
Are filled with more happiness
Than those sad things

Blinking
And shining
Everything that was with you revives

Suddenly stopping the foot
I see a flower blossoming in the alley

Soon, about to announce its ending
It’s so tired and about to fall asleep

It is a little, heart-wrenching
I cried out, and this was perhaps because
I’m once again
A little
Tired, I think

I can now recall
The name of the flower
That you like
Soon that flower
Will become reborn

Grasping
A little soil
So it will blossom tomorrow

At that time
As it was the thing which I could indeed feel its existence
And because I was holding it
I was able to keep on this path
And come to this place
As I would continue walking

Blinking
And shining
With you
Everything still feels alive

OPHELIA_act2

This is so exciting
We’ve come to
The kingdom in fairy tale
Hey, the fairies
Are waving their hands to us

Things don’t always go smoothly
In fact there are good ones and also bad ones
Therefore
Everything is really
Up for you to decide

When you take a bite on the red apple
What you have come to love
That’s right
Is the gentle smile
And the feeling from touching it

One two three four
Counting the nights
Soon
Whether we can welcome
The reunion

The innocent rabbits
Went to a place
With a happiness-colored
Rainbow hanging in there

Here
All sorts of things can happen
Still this is the city you’re in love with
Okay
Stop worrying it
Take a good rest

And quietly say “good night”
