ALVA Lyrics English Translation by A Crowd Of Rebellion
The poet mentions a vivid ultramarine, symbolizing overflowing emotions. One line stands out: ‘At the end of our journey, five large tairin flowers will finally bloom.’ This imagery represents hope and growth after struggle, a theme woven throughout the song.
Afure dashita kara me o fusaide itaEverything started overflowing, so I kept my eyes closed.
Atarimae kurayami ga boku osotte ugokenaiNaturally, the darkness attacks me and I can’t move.
Sameru koto ga nai yume mada life shibarareI’m still tied down by a life and a dream I can’t wake from.
No one knows what the futureNo one knows what the future holds.
You’re telling me i know i knowYou’re telling me, “I know, I know.”
Kojiakeru sa fateI’m gonna break open our fate.
I’m not gonna loseI’m not gonna lose.
You and i mukizu nante nai this is the warNeither you nor I are unscarred; this is war.
We will surviveWe will survive.
Kore kara mo ikudo tenohira kasaneHow many times will we join our hands from now on,
Arukidasu no daroubefore we finally start walking again?
Azayaka na gunjou koboreochita kanjouA vivid ultramarine; these are the emotions that spilled over.
Namida dake wakachiaeta darouWe were only able to share our tears, weren’t we?
Tabiji web hate ni itsutsu no tairin gaAt the end of our journey, five large ‘tairin’ flowers,
Hana o sakasun dawill finally bloom.
Lest we forgetLest we forget.
Kasaneta te de hajimeyouLet’s start with our hands joined together.
Uragirareta kara mimi fusaide itaBecause I was betrayed, I kept my eyes closed.
Dare no koto shinjiro to wakaranai yo kotaete neeI don’t know who to trust anymore, so please answer me.
Ima o inoru ano ko ni wa yakusoku no kotoba todokanaiThe words of promise won’t reach that girl praying for the present.
Afurekaeru sakebi lo naka de kimi ni boku ga ima o kizamouAmidst these overflowing screams, I’ll carve this moment into you.
Sasayaka na aijou atatakana yuujouA little bit of love and a warm friendship;
Kono kusuri dono ICU ni mo naithis medicine isn’t found in any ICU.
Koe no denai retsujou kimi boku de koetaTogether, we overcame this voiceless passion.
Hitori ja dame dattaI couldn’t make it alone.
Kimi ga ite kuretaBut you were there for me.
At any one timeAt any given time,
Kimi ga ite kuretayou were there for me.
Kibou o palm offPushing hope away,
Furikazashita painyou brandished your pain.
Jama bakari no loserJust a loser in the way,
Mata kayet again.

Akenakatta yoru o kojiaketa taiyouThe sun broke through the night that wouldn’t end.
Shiroki koromo o matoiDressed in white robes,
Wake up wake upwake up, wake up.
It’s time to wake upIt’s time to wake up.
I’ll be right hereI’ll be right here.
Azayaka na gunjou koboreochita kanjouA vivid ultramarine; these are the emotions that spilled over.
