Otsuka Ai "Yumekui (Dreamcatcher)" lyrics

I couldn't find a translation yet on the internet, so here is mine! The lyrics are very cute, as always, but also quite typically confusing in parts. Ai's lyrics always leave a lot out, gramatically speaking, so wrapping your mind around the fragmented lyrics can be a task when putting them in to English.

*note: A yumekui (夢食い・ユメクイ) is a little goblin that appears on your pillow when you are sleeping. It is his job to eat up all of your bad dreams so you wake up feeling refreshed. "Goblin" doesn't really sound nice, and since there really is no English answer to the yumekui, I decided to call him a "Dreamcatcher".

ユメクイ
大塚愛


僕は今夢旅の中
あの星の島までも飛んで行ける
てのり歌歌う僕のユメクイ
君のそばにもた辿り付ける

最初に描いた夢を思い出せなくなったのは大人になったから?
右か左かでいつまでも迷って太陽が反転するまで喋り込んだ

一つだけポケットに入れてきたもの 大きなこの愛を持って

僕は今夢旅の中
あの星の島までも飛んで行ける
てのり歌歌う僕のユメクイ
君のそばにもた辿り付ける

カラフルな靄に心を奪われちょっとしたことに躓いた
擦り剥いたトコに君がくれたのは恥ずかしいくらいの可愛らしいバンソウコウ

叶える度に 食い尽くすユメクイ
叶える度に また夢を見る
いくつになっても

僕は今夢旅の中
寄り道してプレゼントを見つける
てのり歌歌う僕のユメクイ
描いた未来に君がいつもいる

僕は今夢旅の中
あの星の島までも飛んで行ける
てのり歌歌う僕のユメクイ
君のそばにも辿り付ける

君のそばでずっと夢を見る




Yumekui
Ootsuka Ai


Boku wa ima yume tabi no naka
Ano hoshi no shima made mo tonde yukeru
Tenori uta utau boku no yumekui
Kimi no soba ni mo tadoritsukeru

Saisho ni egaita yume wo omoi dasenaku natta no wa otona ni natta kara?
Migi ka hidari ka de itsu made mo mayotte taiyou ga hanten suru made shaberi konda

Hitotsu dake poketto ni irete kita mono ooki na kono ai wo motte

Boku wa ima yume tabi no naka
Ano hoshi no shima made mo tonde yukeru
Tenori uta utau boku no yumekui
Kimi no soba ni mo tadoritsukeru

Karafuru na moya ni kokoro wo ubaware chotto shita koto ni tsumaduita
Suri muita toko ni kimi ga kureta no wa hazukashii kurai no kawairashii bansoukou

Kanaeru tabi ni Kui tsukusu yumekui
Kanaeru tabi ni Mata yume wo miru
Ikutsu ni natte mo

Boku wa ima yume tabi no naka
Yori michi shite purezento wo mitsukeru
Tenori uta utau boku no yumekui
Egaita mirai ni kimi ga itsu mo iru

Boku wa ima yume tabi no naka
Ano hoshi no shima made mo tonde yukeru
Tenori uta utau boku no yumekui
Kimi no soba ni mo tadoritsukeru

Kimi no soba de zutto yume wo miru




Dreamcatcher
Ai Otsuka


I am now on a dream journey.
I can fly off to that starry island.
My dreamcatcher, who sings a tiny song,
Can be at your side, too.

Is it because I've grown up that I can't remember the first dream I drew?
Always mixing up left and right, I kept incessantly talking until the sun turned over.

The one thing I've had in my pocket along the way is this big love.

I am now on a dream journey.
I can fly off to that starry island.
My dreamcatcher, who sings a tiny song,
Can be at your side, too.

I lost my heart in a colorful haze, and tripped over petty things.
What you gave me to put on the scrape was a shamefully adorable bandage.

When my wishes are granted, it's because of my dreamcatcher.
When my wishes are granted, I will dream again.
No matter how old I get.

I am now on a dream journey.
I stop in along the way and find a present.
You will forever be in my future
As drawn by my dreamcatcher, who sings a tiny song.

I am now on a dream journey.
I can fly off to that starry island.
My dreamcatcher, who sings a tiny song,
Can be at your side, too.

It will always be dreaming at your side.

"Yumekui" is her new, yet-unreleased single, so there probably will be a PV soon (if it's not out yet)! These are lyrics as heard from the rip currently circling the net.

There weren't lyrics on 2ch? they're usually there within like 2 minutes of the radio rip

Cute lyrics though, thanks for the effort^^
