Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay~!!!! Finally~ After days of confusion and excited-ness, I bring you... Futari no Kinenbi translated lyrics~ XDDD I'm not sure with a lot of lines since I'm not really a fluent Japanese speaker and in my class, we haven't discussed all verbs.

Two people’s memories

Notes:
[1] that – I’m not really sure, but I think ‘that’ pertains to the ‘guy’ not telling the ‘girl’ what’s in his mind ^-^;
[2] 胸 – mune – literally means ‘chest; breast’
[3] I used ‘accidentally’ instead of ‘by chance’ since it seems more appropriate. o.o;
[4] ‘ii ne’ = ‘asking price’, I made it ‘priceless’
[5] I used ‘it’s true’ rather than ‘that’s right’ cause it kind of sounds more proper to me. ^-^; did it?
[6] perfectly linked for each other I’m really not sure about this >__<; kamisan is wife. 合う is to fit; suit; agree with; match. 楔(くさび) is wedge; link pin; linked. So… I’m ~~definitely~~really not sure with this part @___@;
[7] fuzai = ‘absence’ absence of sound is soft. O.o;
[8] 今=now; 現在=present time

Really nice! well done!

I'm not a Japanese speaker and don't know much myself, but

綺麗な瞳を見つめてたい
Kirei na hitomi wo mitsumetetai
Watching those pretty eyes

I think that -tai expresses want. I would have translated it as "I want to watch those pretty eyes". But I'm no expert!

Keep going! It's a great way to learn and this is really good for a first effort!

Thank you very much. *bow* ^_^

oh... I see. I'll observe that the next time I translate lyrics. ^__^ We may not be experts, but we can help each other so that each of us may become one, ne? ^__^

*nod nod* Thank you very much~! ^-^ You are also

japanda_lations, ne? ^-^ I'm fond of your translations. ^___^ Thank you for the corrections and the compliments. ^-^

From:

dokodemo-honey.livejournal.com

Yep! Exactly... we should all help each other (^_^) very well put! It makes me sad when people think it's a competition. Arashi fans should all be on the same side (^_^) !

From:

chesuto.livejournal.com

wow...well done..and thanks for translating it.. ^-^

Thanks. ^-^ I had a lot of mistakes though. xD;

Uhh, kinenbi means anniversary (it can mean holiday, but I think "futari no kinenbi" means "our anniversary" in this case). XDD;;

Like someone said above: tai form means want to, so maybe: I want to gaze into your beautiful eyes.

もしもそれを待ってたなら
Moshimo sore wo matteta nara
If in case you wait for that[1]

Matteta means [literally] "was/were waiting" so maybe: "if that's what you were waiting for"

白い冬の日も　君に出逢った日も
Shiroi fuyu no hi mo kimi ni deatta hi mo
The day of white winter, and the day when I accidentally[3] meet you

I don't know if accidentally is the best way to express this. I think "happened to meet you" would be better (but this is just my interpretation). Also, maybe "the white winter day" sounds a bit better?

言い争った事もあったけれど
Ii ara sotta koto mo atta keredo
We have reasons to argue, however

The "ta" form and koto ga aru means "have done" (have the experience of doing). So "We have fought/quarreled."

気にしないで
Ki ni shinaide
We ignore them

Ki ni suru means "to worry" so maybe "don't worry about it."

悩まないで
Nayama naide
It torments us

Nayamu = to think, worry, so maybe "don't worry about it" again?

悲しい目をして見つめないで
Kanashii me wo shite mitsume naide
When I look at your sad eyes

"naide" means "without doing" (or don't do as a request), so maybe "without looking into your sad eyes"?

白い冬の日も　君と歩いた日も
Shiroi fuyu no hi mo kimi to aruita hi mo
The day of white winter, the day I will walk with you

Aruita is past tense, so "the day I walked with you".

凍えそうな夜も
Kogoe sou na yoru mo
It will be a really freezing night

I think just "the frozen night too" since the particle "mo" is used and he's talking about the past days and now saying he'll always be with her.

そこは何人(なんびと)たり邪魔ない空間
Soko wa nanbito tari jama nai kuukan
Everyone will not be a hindrance and would not take space there

Sounds kind of awkward to me. Maybe "No one will be there and we'll have space that won't be intruded"? Heh, that sounds kind of awkward too. XDD;; My English skills are very low (and I am a native speaker) so I'm not the best person to make sense of that line.

この気持ち君がはじめてさ
Kono kimochi kimi ga hajimete sa
You are the one who started this feeling

Hajimete just means "first time" so maybe "You were the first that I had these feelings for."

I just sort of skimmed through it, but I'm not a native speaker of Japanese so I could be wrong too. XD;; Good job on the translation!

From:

chesuto.livejournal.com

ah... the -tai again. XD everyone keeps saying I had a mistake on that. XD and yeah. I really did. XDD

^____^ thank you so very much for correcting me *bows* ^-^

From: (Anonymous)

Thanks for translating! Id like to ask how lon gyou've been learning japanese for? coz for someone whos class hasnt gone through all the verbs yet, and making mistakes on words such as -った事 and -った im guessing 1st or second year
but you're heaps good lol x) just work on quickly recognising the forms of verbs =)

im not a native japanese speaker, but i think ive found some mistakes, even though most have been corrected by arrow (above) ill do one that hasnt

今度のクリスマスも
This day will also be Christmas

It literally means "This times Christmas also"

忘れられない日になるといいね
This will become an unforgettable, priceless day

means something along the lines of "becoming an unforgettable day would be good (wouldn't it)"

so for those 2 lines, i think maybe
"And this Christmas, to become an unforgettable would be great (wouldn't it)"

and similar to arrowofpain, im very bad at english even though im a native speaker xD

im still going through reading it so maybe ill get back to you later =)

From:

chesuto.livejournal.com

ahehe. ^__^; I'm just in the begginer course. I did this before we discussed verbs, so yeah, I couldn't translate a lot correctly ^_^;

*nod nod* Thanks much for correcting me~ ^___^

From: (Anonymous)

this time ill put it all together, i just thought it looked a bit messy before but it looks fine lol

もしも君を傷つけたなら
Moshimo kimi wo kizutsuketa nara
If you get hurt by this

another mixed up form of verb, -te = plain form, -ta = past tense
so i think "If you werehurt by this"

君が泣いた日も　傷つけ合った日も
Kimi ga naita hi mo kizutsuke atta hi mo
On the days that you cry, on the days that you’re hurt

Mixed up verb form again, 泣いた = past tense, so "The days that you cried, and the days you were hurt"

淋しかった夜も
Sabishi katta yoru mo
It became a lonesome night

Theres no verb for Became, so just "And the Lonely Nights" (NOTE: 淋しかった is past tense)

笑い飛ばせる日が来るといいね
Warai tobaseru hi ga kuru to ii ne
A priceless day full of laughter will come after

笑い飛ぶ mean "to laugh out", so something like
"It'd be great if a day to be able to laugh out would come"
my english is real bad lol >< i cant find a single or 2 words for 笑い飛ぶ
(Another NOTE: 笑い飛ばせる is using the -e form of the verb, indicating the capability to do something)

「あんな事もあったね」だなんて
“Anna koto mo atta ne” da nante
”Such things are also regrettable,” they say

Lol where did regrettable come from? =S
あった= informal form for ありました, so "There are things like those too aren't there"

白い冬の日も　君と歩いた日も
Shiroi fuyu no hi mo kimi to aruita hi mo
The day of white winter, the day I will walk with you

(Corrected by arrowofpain)

凍えそうな夜も
Kogoe sou na yoru mo
It will be a really freezing night

(Corrected by arrowofpain) OR "And on a freezing night"

一秒先は　現在(いま)も昔
Ichibyou saki wa ima mo mukashi
That one second that passed is also the present that passed

This part im not completely sure of, but i know 昔 means ancient so =S >< sorry lol

雪が止むことだけが決まってるなら
Yuki ga yamu koto dake ga kimatteru nara
The snow has stopped, a thing that just happens without fail, in case

"If only stopping the snow is confirmed" or something like that >< god im getting light headed, gotta sleep soon lol ><

現在(いま)はこうして掴んでる、ただ
Ima wa koushite tsukanderu, tada
Right now, thus, I want to get hold of it, but

Mix up of verb forms once again
-teru = doing the action,
At this moment, Holding it,

あなたにとってどうかな
Anata ni totte douka na
How can I hold you?

Literally "I wonder how it is for you?"

So the above 2 lines together
"Holding it at this moment, but (I wonder) if its okay with you(?)"

今日からをずっとずっとHoly night
Kyou kara wo zutto zutto Holy night
From this forth is continuously, endlessly a holy night

lol you exaggerated it too much =X
"From today (onwards), Forever a Holy Night"

CHRISTMAS TIME IS COMING TO TOWN
Christmas time is coming to town

DAMN STRAIGHT! x)

ANOTHER NOTE: i think it makes more sense if you translate each line and then put like 2 lines together when neccessary, coz sometimes it doesnt make sense =S

いつか未来に赤い絨毯
Itsuka mirai ni akai juutan
One day, the future will be the red carpet

"One day, in the future, a red carpet"

そこは何人(なんびと)たり邪魔ない空間
Soko wa nanbito tari jama nai kuukan
Everyone will not be a hindrance and would not take space there

"There (where) we'll have our own space" (emitting the stuff about other people)

So for the 2 lines above, i think theyre trying to imply a welcoming of something, gotta figure it out in english lol
