Ah, gotcha. I didn't think the phrases would be connected like that but the end result makes a lot more sense! Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up. Yeah I tend to do an automatic romanization to save time and then read through it while listening to the song to try to fix any errors, but sometimes they slip past.

You're very welcome thanks for the comment. :) Keep at it! You could always try finding some easy japanese -> english translation requests on this website to attempt as practice. That helped me learn!... више

Nope, not as far as I know! The band did the ending of the anime "Radiant" but it was a different song.

Thanks, good catch. But upon rereading it I think that "and now you're gone from view," while a looser translation, carries the spirit of the line while still connecting it with the scene and the acti... више

I'm familiar with the author of that article. They've contacted me about some of my translations before, and I know they have a different translating style than I do. I suppose I do wish they'd contacted me about this line rather than calling it out but it's obvious they take song translation more seriously than I do and I commend them for standing up for what they believe. And I mean, this translation of mine WAS pretty awkward in a number of ways. So I just took a few minutes and went back and rewrote it significantly. Took out the shakespeare line too. I remember when I wrote it I thought it was clever but yeah it doesn't match the tone very well. Hopefully the whole thing's a bit smoother now. I'm glad you asked about my ethos... Ultimately, for me, song translation started as a hobby and a way for me to keep studying Japanese. I didn't put the STYLE into it that the author of the article cares for so much. I went with a stark, true-to-the-japanese approach because the Japanese grammar is what I was focused on while I was learning, but which lead to some awkward English. It's not that that was my ETHOS per se, but it's just about all I could manage at the time, or all the effort I wanted to put into a hobby. But going back and reading some of my past translations now is ROUGH. Mis-translated words and mis-read meanings galore, and some very awkward lines, so I do understand when people have qualms. Current ethos? I do care now more about smoothness of reading and understanding in English even if it means a looser translation. I want people to be able to read along to my lyrics as they listen to the song and understand the meaning clearly. (For example: I personally definitely don't write my lyrics so that someone could hypothetically sing them to music to make an "english version" of the song. So I still don't share the "rhythm preservation" focus that the author of the article has, but that's how personal translating preference goes I guess, and I think it's cool that it's their focus and goal when translating.) The problem is that I don't have the time or the energy to go back through all my old translations and make sure they'd fit my current standards/Japanese level. So instead, if anyone has a problem or suggestion with one of my translations, all I can hope is that they'll comment nicely and inform me to bring it and the song to my attention, and then I can fix it and while I'm there I can look over the whole song and re-write it if necessary. So thank you for commenting nicely. :) (And I'm genuinely sorry for the long, ranty answer haha)више

I took the easy way out! Doing some googling of my own I think you're on to something with the 手毬唄歌い line, it's definitely referring to the temari, and probably more specifically the children's songs that are played on(with?) them (手鞠歌). There seems to be one specific song called 丸竹夷 (but also known as 京都の通り名歌) that in some variations is basically a list of all of the roads in Kyoto. You can see a variation of it sung (with the temari) on this Conan clip here: https://youtu.be/w0g68MhoG0s I'm assuming that's what the line refers to. And in deference to that discovery I went back through and changed up that line in my translation! Thank you a lot for the new perspective on that :) "Everyday we move forward like we're teaching Kyoto's truth" -> "The days march on like they're teaching the names of Kyoto's streets" ...Which is, frankly, an absurd translation of 手毬唄歌い, out of context... but even so, and no offense because the suggestions and translations you've come up with are top-notch, but I'm going to keep that line, and the fashion line as I have them I think, just because I want to keep a consistency of having my translation based on the modern-japanese transliteration from the music video. I figure if that's how REOL wanted it to be read and understood by her Japanese viewers (who I seriously believe would have a similar problem we're having parsing this song as written!) then English readers should be able to read an English translation based on that. That being said though, that's just for the consistency of my translation! I would be SO stoked if you decided to make your own translation, going literally from the sung japanese! That would be so cool to have also, and you've already made great progress! OR if you want a challenge to crack all on your own, there's the song Ooedo Ranvu by Reol that's written in a similarly old-style Japanese BUT without the crutch I've been using of an official modern-japanese transliteration, as far as I know. I've tried a couple of times on that but I keep getting stumped too. I agree, songs like this are a lot of fun, but a pain too. So much information lost without context. >.више
