Making retarded icons seems to be my favourite pastime as of late.

I mentioned translating FIND THE WAY? Here it is:


FIND THE WAY
Nakashima Mika

Why do you, in your small hands
Try to carry your pain?
Not for anyone, don’t lose sight
Why am I, while hesitating
Unable to run away?
My hope is the shining light of the sun. The sun…

FIND THE WAY
Even if your hands can’t reach the glittering sky
Rely only on the resounding love
The end of the road will light up
YOU’LL FIND THE WAY

You told me you had a long dream
It was very sad, but
Even though it looked that way
It was not one bit cloudy
I told you it’s alright to cry and
I’ll always be by your side
What I want is a hand to hold. A hand…

FIND THE WAY
Even if there are no words, even if you don’t have wings
Don’t let the unsettling wind defeat you
Go faster now than anyone, if you are in pain

Give me an answer. It’s definitely not everything
I won’t rush you, it’s okay for you, too…

FIND THE WAY
Even if your hands can’t reach the glittering sky
Rely only on the resounding love
The end of the road will light up
FIND THE WAY

Even if there are no words, even if you don’t have wings
Don’t let the unsettling wind defeat you
At the end of the road I saw a definite light.
YOU’LL FIND THE WAY


FIND THE WAY
中島美嘉

どうして君は 小さな手で
傷を背負おうとするのだろう?
誰かの為だけじゃない 見失わないで
どうして僕は 迷いながら
逃げ出すこと出来ないのだろう?
望むのは 光射す日を 日を…

FIND THE WAY
輝く宇宙(そら)に 手は届かなくても
響く愛だけ頼りに
進んだ道の先 光が見つかるから
YOU’LL FIND THE WAY

君は言った 永い夢をみた
とても哀しい夢だったと
それでもその姿は 少しも曇らない
僕は言った 泣いていいんだと
ずっと傍にいてあげるよ
欲しいのは 抱き上げる手を 手を…

FIND THE WAY
言葉なくても 飛ぶ翼(はね)はなくても
乱す風に負けぬ様に
今誰より早く 痛みに気付けたなら…

答えを出すこと きっとすべてじゃない
焦らなくて いいんだよ あなたも…

FIND THE WAY
輝く宇宙(そら)に 手は届かなくても
響く愛だけ頼りに
進んだ道の先 光が見つかるから
FIND THE WAY
言葉なくても 飛ぶ翼(はね)はなくても
乱す風に負けぬ様に
進んだ道の先 確かな光を見た…
YOU’LL FIND THE WAY

And for good measure, here's a link to download it: FIND THE WAY (RapidShare, sorry. YSI won't even load the main page.)

This is the first time I've translated a song the whole way through. Mistakes? Rotten tomatos? Tell me what you think! :D

Also, my icon? That's a photo I took. Of my Pocky. That Pocky will be eaten by me, and it's likeness preserved for eternity in icon form. I think that is cool. (Too bad it's not a better icon. :/)

Wow! A public post!

I love that song. Thanks to you're uber skills, I know what she's singing so beautifully about. Excuse me while I eat your icon and drool.

Your camera takes awesome pictures! [Especially ones of Pocky] :9

Heh heh. I think that this has less to do with my camera, and more to do with Pocky.

FIND THE WAY was the first Mika song I ever listened to, and it didn't even hit me that it was her because the artist was just listed as "Gundam SEED" XD

I luff it. It makes me feel better when I'm blue. /corny

I didn't know it was a Gundam SEED song until I looked for the kanji online!
