English Translation:
Unchanged Thing
Lyrics: Oku Hanako Music: Oku Hanako
I had fooled around with you on the way back
I made you angry for no apparent reason
As I had wanted to see the many expressions you have
Those huge pupils The voice that sounds like you’re crying
They are choking up my chest up till now
I ran through a crowd of passers-by chasing after you.
I have been searching for something unchanging
Never to forget the you from that day
My emotions seem to transcend time
I really want to meet you now
My feelings that hung under the street lights
I have never been able to convey them to you
The night seems to pull us further apart
The voice you used to lie to me is still sounding out within my chest right now
Within my unpredictable heart
During the time my heart was wandering about We fell in love
I have been searching for something unchanging
If the two of us could go together
To that unknown place we found that day
I would always change my birth just to do so
I had embraced something with no form
While i couldn’t hear the broken sound
The same streets we walked on together
The lights still continue with their shine till now
I have been searching for something unchanging
Never to forget the you from that day
My emotions seem to transcend time
I really want to meet you now
I really want to meet you now

Seriously seriously speaking, I hate it when lyrics don’t state whether the ‘もの(mono)’ refers to 物 or 者. The former means object and the latter means person. I understand it is a favorable pun play by the Japanese to indicate more than one definite situation but it really makes the english translation process a bitch.
The previous song translation I did also had the same problem and I resorted to randomising the definition but do note that you can sub in anything you like. In this song though, I suspect both definitions are used, with ‘person’ used first and ‘object/thing’ used in the third last paragraph. Afterall, that thing is emitting a broken sound and the protagonist might be so depressed she can’t hear it. Or it just could be an indication that the person she once knew is no more.
Either all the above deductions I made, or my Japanese just sucks.
In any case, I rule. And here’s the song:
It seems there’s no PV for this song, even 僕が生まれた街 has a PV. Luckily someone is too free and made a PV for us. Thanks whoever you are.
No, I no longer want to upload the mp3 for bandwidth suckers.
