Sexy Zone - O.N.E ～Our New Era～ Translation by shoripon@tumblr

What! What! Bring it on!

Splash harder, Fight through the storm, toward where the light shines Raise the anchor It's time!

Don't let yourself be chained (Are you ready?) How you appear to society (To Go!) is nothing but an excuse, isn't it?

What you want!? What you want!? Grab hold of it The era that we will create Any day... Any day... one of these days Hey! What! What! Bring it on! Shake yourself free*, scream, and cry out That dream you carved for yourself won't lie Any way... Any way... now's the time Hey! What! What! Bring it on!

Now, have a look We are our own rules Being second place is meaningless We're still here at fifth consecutive**

We want! Do not draw back with time We want! we have to withstand it We want! even if we get covered in scars

Never say never and keep swimming through someone's aquarium We are, after all, mere freshwater fish*** But we can fly anywhere**** Any day... Any day... one of these days Is our sunny future beyond this shadow?***** Any way... Any way... now's the time Hey! What! What! Bring it on!

What! What! Bring it on!

What you want!? What you want!? Grab hold of it The era that we will create Any day... Any day... one of these days Hey! What! What! Bring it on! Shake yourself free*, scream, and cry out Until we reach it, we won’t even think of stopping Any way... Any way... now's the time Hey! What! What! Bring it on!

*T/N: "Shake yourself free" here actually says "scream and cry to your feet" which probably is saying to get yourself moving, to do your best to try to pick up your feet.

**T/N: "We're still at the fifth consecutive" This is a reference to Mt. Fuji. We can actually "climb" up to the fifth consecutive of Mt. Fuji by car but that's the limit. After that we have no way to go up than by foot. So this references that the road is only going to get tough from here but keep going and that we can’t always take the easy way out. We have to fight for what we want. We have to keep trying, keep climbing.

***T/N: "We are, after all, mere freshwater fish" also with the line before it "keep swimming through someone's aquarium" apparently, although earth is 70% water, only 1% of it is freshwater. And 40% of 28,000 fish species live in this 1% of freshwater. Because of there being more "small" bodies of freshwater in scattered places, the freshwater fish is more diverse than saltwater fish. Freshwater fish is, hence, more adaptive and ever-changing, and shares its small space with so many others, while saltwater fish can enjoy their more stable and larger bodies of water. If you add this together, it's like they're saying "there may be many of us (crowded small area), we may be a minority (1% of water being freshwater), but we will be different and stand tall (diversity of the fish)."

****T/N: "But we can fly anywhere" The previously line says "たかが" which is the "mere" part of "we are, after all, mere freshwater fish" but if you read it differently "たか" is a falcon/hawk so the line could change to "a hawk is a freshwater fish" as well (lol) so maybe that's why they can fly anywhere.

Sato Shori & Kikuchi Fuma - Sing Along Song Translation by shoripon@tumblr

"Just kidding" and laughing away Your back standing in the crowd I sent you off I wonder if one day, our meetings will decrease? Reaching into my pocket, I turn up the volume to this song

yeah...yeah... Because it's us yeah...yeah... even if it's hazy yeah...yeah... we'll still be able to see clearly Just singin' with me

Just Sing along song, sing along song Without even thinking about the meaning Just Sing along song, sing along song Feeling the heartbeat right now lala... The sky we saw that day, If you feel suffering, just look up to it again Now Sing along song, sing along song Singin' with me It's not too bad right? Without even seeing the ending, we know how it'll end

While laughing and crying, we become one Everything is keeping us connected, you see Even the sound of my heart is echoing through to you like a Melody

yeah...yeah... Clumsy yeah...yeah... even if we appear that way yeah...yeah... Forever Just singin' with me

Now Sing along song, sing along song Don't put any expectations on anything Now Sing along song, sing along song Even if we seem stupid and get lost, or stop in our tracks Without letting go of each other's hands Just Sing along song, sing along song Singin' with me Forever, Come along

Dear You at your worst, The road that we walked together was mostly under clear skies It's no match for what's happening now You must want to look back at that sunset from that day It must hurt... It seems like you've become fragile Are we becoming distant? That's not it. Together, again and again, in the usual place, in those days, in those four seasons, are the reasons to live

Sato Shori - Kiss You Good-Bye Translation by shoripon@tumblr

Don't cry, if it's for my sake Gotta go Let you go I might end up holding you in an embrace So, without turning around, please go on Before I change my mind Walkin' out the door

Made you cry cry cry I can't put it into words well, Always The one who hurt you, yes, it was me, so Don't you worry

Don't say "I'm sorry" Anymore, It's alright For me, one love has come to an end You don't have to try If you're with him you can Smile again I know you will be happy So, good-bye Baby Embracing this pain, I Kiss you good-bye Bye bye bye...Bye bye bye...

More than anyone else, that smile of yours... Tell me why, Don't know why but I wanted to protect it, but No, even those lies that you told that day I acted as if I didn't realize them Break your heart again

Let you down, down, down Our silver couple rings They will remind us of our time together so just throw it away for me Feel so lonely

Anyway, I couldn't ask "Stay by my side" It's too late For you, I just wanted to say it honestly I just wanna try It's late now but, I'm sorry, I can't rewind the time So, good-bye Baby Our love is crying, Kiss you good-bye Bye bye bye...Bye bye bye...

Want you Baby Make me crazy This room that I'm in is too wide for me alone it's enough to make me cry... Come back to me The truth is that I don't want to give you away to anyone Even now, I love you... I need you

Sexy Zone - さあ笑って (Smile, now) Translation by shoripon@tumblr

Oh…Yeah…Smile, now

Every day, there are so many things that can’t be expressed with words, but just by looking into your eyes I can find all the raw emotions

See, those important things, quietly, at the bottom of our footsteps, they’re being grounded to sprout someday

The grains of the blue sky, and the parade of stardust are also trying to tell you something Everything is calling out to you

I only see you over everyone else Dignified and brave Even when the flowers bloom, and even when birds come flying, Seeing you as you are is what I like the best So, smile, until tomorrow, and from then on, too

Smile, now

When there are too many things going on and your heart becomes foggy, I want to be the first one to come to your side

See, those important things, I can’t hold on to so many at one time In other words, you’re my number one*

The evening raindrops and the moonlight breeze are also trying to tell me something And each time, I draw you in my mind

I’m always watching over you Gently and delicately Even if the trees sway, and even if this moment now passes by, Seeing the figure of your back as you’re moving forward is important to me So, smile, until tomorrow, and from then on, too

Even if I’m not around, keep your smile keep your shining, forever

I only see you over everyone else Dignified and brave Even when the flowers scatter, and even when the birds close their eyes I’ll just continue to think of you, as I always have So, smile, tomorrow and forever Just keep blooming your smiles

Oh…Yeah…Smile, now
