ICY Lyrics Translation – Dollchestra | Sayaka Murano (Cv: Kokona Nonaka)
Sayaka Murano sings about the heavy pressure of expectations and the fear of making wrong choices. The vocalist describes a world where ideals have turned to ash, yet she pushes forward. She admits she would rather ‘let everything freeze—I’d rather be lost in eternity’ (Kotae nanka shiritakunai subete o koorasete isso towa no naka ni) than have time stop on a sad moment.
ICY maru to batsu ga narandaICY, right and wrong are lined up before me.
Ima kooraseteLet it all freeze now,
Itsuka tokashite hoshiibut I want you to melt it away someday.
Ah mirai eAh, toward the future.
Soko de ikiru anata e touI ask you, the one living out there,
Chigau to nando dattehow many times did I say ‘this isn’t it’?
Kakinaoshita yume no yosouzu oEven on the mornings when I thought of crumpling up
Marumete suteyou to omotta asa mothe blueprints of my dreams I’ve rewritten so many times.
Risou ga hai ni natteMy ideals have turned to ash,
Me no mae ni shikareta rail oand even on those nights I hesitated to move forward
Mou ichido susumou to mayotta yoru moalong the tracks laid out right in front of me,
Taezu sosogu koe ga kooruthe voices constantly pouring in continue to freeze.
Mata mune o tsuranuku ahIt pierces through my heart again, ah.
Wakatteru jibun shidai dakaraI know it’s all up to me,
Kazaeteku riyuu sono yukue gaso I’ll keep counting the reasons, even if I don’t know where they lead,
Wakaranai mama tomarenai mamaand even if I can’t find a way to stop.
Koko made kita kedoI’ve come this far, but
Sagashiteru awai yume no arikaI’m still searching for where that faint dream lives.
Ubatte yo negai himeta sora gaSteal this moment away before the sky hiding my wishes
Nigoru mae ni kono setsuna obecomes clouded and dark.
Tojikomereba towaIf I lock it away, it’s eternity.
Fuantei na sekai deIn this unstable world,
Mubou na route da tteeven if it’s a reckless path,
Kikanaide mata kizutsuiterudon’t ask why—I’m just getting hurt again.
Dareka no iu toori omoenakatta noI couldn’t just think the way everyone told me to;
Sou mitomeru hou ga hontou wa raku dattan daadmitting that would’ve actually been much easier.
Taezu sosogu koe ga kooruThe voices constantly pouring in are freezing,
Sore ga iya ni nattemo praybut even if I grow to hate it, I’ll still pray.
Wakatteru kitai kotae nagaraI know, as I live up to these expectations,
Tebanasou kibou yori no ego waI should let go of this ego born from hope.
Tsugi wa nani o suteru beki kaWhat should I throw away next?
Suteru imi wa aru deshou kaIs there even a point in letting go?
Kore made nani o sutete nani o te ni shite watashi wa ittai nani ga shitakatta noWhat have I sacrificed and what have I gained until now? What on earth did I really want to do?
Kotae nanka shiritakunai subete o koorasete isso towa no naka niI don’t want to know any answers, just let everything freeze—I’d rather be lost in eternity.
Dakedo ima toki ga tomareba konnani mo kanashii shunkan ga nokotte shimauBut if time stops now, such a sad moment would be left behind forever.
Umaku waraenakutemo kurushikutemo kizutsuki nagara demoEven if I can’t smile right, even if it’s painful, even while getting hurt…
Ima o ikiyouI’ll live for the now.
Wakatteru jibun shidai dakaraI know it’s all up to me,
Kazaeteku riyuu sono yukue gaso I’ll keep counting the reasons, even if I don’t know where they lead,
Wakaranai mama tomarenai mamaand even if I can’t find a way to stop.
Koko made kitaI’ve come this far,

Ubatte yo negai himeta sora gaSteal this moment away before the sky hiding my wishes
Nigoru mae ni kono setsuna obecomes clouded and dark.

Demo ii nobut that’s alright.
Kono shunkan ikitai no tomenai deI want to live in this moment, so don’t stop me.
