No Magic Lyrics Translation – Haruto Iizawa
Haruto Iizawa describes a world where ‘special things are caught in the flow of a great wave, and in truth, they’re actually empty.’ The musician talks about the emptiness of ideal solutions. He suggests that even with magic, people would still face unfairness and pain.
Moshimo boku dake jiyuu ni mahou ga tsukaetaraIf I were the only one who could freely use magic,
Mou daremo nakanai you niso that no one would ever have to cry again,
Subete o keshite shimau kamo shirenai naI might just end up erasing everything.
……
Tokubetsu na mono wa ookina nami no nagare deSpecial things are caught in the flow of a great wave,
Hontou wa karappo nandaand in truth, they’re actually empty.
Fikushon ni kibou o nosetePlacing my hopes into fiction,
Nigirishimeru te niheld tight within my hands.
Mahou wa iranaiI don’t need magic.
Donna suteki na negai moNo matter how wonderful the wish,
Wakariaenakatta yowe could never truly understand each other.
Semai sekai deIn this narrow world,
Bokura yume ni oboretewe’re drowning in our dreams,
Mata kizutsuite shimaundaonly to end up getting hurt again.
Moshimo daremo ga jiyuu ni mahou o tsukaetaraIf everyone could freely use magic,
Itai riyuu dake kawattemoeven if only the reasons for the pain changed,
Rifujin na no wa ima to kawaranai nathe unfairness of it all wouldn’t be any different from now.
Tadashii to sareru ookina nami ga nagareteA great wave of what’s deemed ‘right’ flows on,
Honne ga sarawaretettaand our true feelings were swept away.
Hoho o tsuneru you na uta demoEven if it’s a song that feels like a pinch to the cheek,
Boku wa boku dakaraI’m still just who I am.
Mahou wa iranaiI don’t need magic.
Donna utsukushii seigi moBecause no matter how beautiful the justice,
Dareka torikobosu karasomeone’s always going to be left behind.
Sekai no sumi deIn a corner of the world,
Daremo hirowanai kakera othe pieces that no one else will pick up,
Mikansei no mama kazarundaI’ll display them just as they are, unfinished.
Kono mama ja yowai dakeIf things stay like this, I’m just weak,
Unmei o taguriyosete yoso pull the strings of fate closer,
Ashita o egaku you nias if you’re sketching out tomorrow.
Mahou ga arebaIf magic existed,
Boku ga boku no mama demoeven if I stayed just as I am,
Ame ga furiyamu kanaI wonder if the rain would stop falling.
Yume no naka deInside this dream,
Subete kuchihateru madeuntil everything rots away,
Tada koko de me o tsumuritai naI just want to close my eyes right here.
Risou ga arebaIf there’s an ideal to hold onto,
Donna jigoku no hate demoeven at the very edge of hell,
Itami ni kizukanai hodoso much so that I won’t even notice the pain,
Hashitte ikeruI’ll be able to keep running,
Boku wa te o hanasazu niwithout letting go of your hand.
Hitoribotchi de waraundaI’ll smile all on my own
Mahou wa iranaiI don’t need magic
