Recomingイッテ．キマス

“Reliving. Relearning RebirthEvery recovering is a return to a comfortable territory, sometimes with the familiar Scent Of things left the way they were. Otherwise, it may be a completely refreshed Outlook of new thing that need to be received. These repeats or replenishments excite many travelers to, actual1y, be motivated to go somewhere. When the artist sits in front of her familiar Canvas however, she knows that it’s really the re-emptying of everything she has known, Once again. It will still be the reviewing of a similar process maybe a Restruggle, and hopefully, a reinvention. Whether you see it or not, youknow that she is ever-changing, and yet, still there; Recoming to where she had always been”

-2010.March(Spring)

Ah puoi vedereSta cambiandoSempre lentamente

E se tu puoi capire adessoSono qui Ogni parola del mondoOgni colore del cieloVerrà insieme per un momento

Ci sono i fronti del giornoAnche con le voci della notteSentire SentireSoltanto Pace

BrillanzeIntreccio DicendoAdattandoImpavido EsattoEquilibrio

L’aria fredda attraversa l’albaAspetta dietro le nuvole molliIl sole li accoglie con un caloreChe riempie la terraUnisce tutti nell’armonia

Berbungaハナ．イル

Selalu melihat bunga di siniSelalu menari-nari Mekar dalam anginSelalu membuat saya percayaSelalu begitu anggun dan cantik

Ada waktunya semuanya samaDan ada waktunya untuk perubahanAkan ada saatnya untuk berpisahJika bisa memahamiBiarkan Saja BiarkanMembiarkannya

Akan selalu berbunga di siniSelalu menari-nari Dalam angin dinginSelalu membuat saya mimpiSemuanya akan baik dan cantik

Ada waktunya semuanya samaDan ada waktunya untuk perubahanAkan ada saatnya untuk berpisahJika bisa memahamiBiarkan Saja

Dan semuanya tidak tetap samaKarena selalu ada perubahanAkan ada saatnya untuk berpisahJika bisa Jika bisaBiarkan saja BiarkanMembiarkannya

Selalu melihat bunga di siniAkan selalu berbunga di sini

“The distance between us,Like that between the earth and the moon,Is one that would take miracle to traverse.”

Dedicated to J.Y

Worlds Apartワールドス.アパート

Keep your dreams,So you may wanderAway, from the EverydayThat is a Comin’To the things You’re Goin’ to miss From the picturesThrough the scenes,Of the beautiful memories,And the people whom,You think,you’d never see.

Take your Journey,So you may leave itAll behind, from the Everythin’You’ve ever hadTo the thingsYou’d Never met

From the placesThrough the facesOf the good, and not so good timesAre the moments, which,You’ll hold, deep in your mind

When you take your step intoThe best thing of your lifeThere’s no need for youTo wonder if you wouldNever set things right.

Keep your thoughtsSo they may never everTake, What’s in your heart,Those little placesAnd then give’emAll away

For after allThey’re Worlds ApartAnd it’s simply not good enoughTo have faith,in all the thingsThey have to say

You and MeWe’re Worlds ApartSo it’s really not good enoughTo have faith, in all the thingsYou had to say

細雨紛飛 煙草的遺味綠色的葉 矇在灰色的石堆橘紅交会 反覆了幾回喧譁邊緣 拼出多少人在沈醉

站在窗前的淑女依然端正不動聲色的眼神 她是否還在等期盼那個才是能為她卸下臉上疲憊的矜持解開孤獨的心門讓她懂得看清愛的意思

白雪都市 飄渺虛実誰不曾是細心把夢編織從不定時 瞬間消失轉了身以後熟悉的位子已不見曾經的影子

夜下的街燈掩飾星辰多少孤單的靈魂 都依然還在等期盼能遇上那雙能夠解開心門溫柔的眼神臉上每一滴滴淚不也一直見證愛的意志

白雪都市-Solstice-

白雪都市 虛擬現実誰不曾是掏心把夢編織只是白雪都市從不定時轉了身以後熟悉的位子已不見過去的樣子

白雪都市 飄渺虛実誰愿輕易放棄夢的堅持白雪都市 瞬間提示不要把 心定上一個結 用微笑溶解不再是冰冷的世界

“So when our paths do cross, out of Convenience or Conflict, Our Stores are going to be different again, Sometimes, moving On to the next step may require a Challenge or a commitment, Or both． After all, Fate doesn’t allow us to be passive, even if it seems to have the upper hand most of the time. Even to the littlest of things, Our every Shift may see us moving Closer to where we want to go, or further away from it.

　I am contemplating. Not for how lt’s going to be, Or how it should have been, but as a reminder of how, the everything that I am experiencing now, eventually, Came from Small things． And when lt’s done, it’ll still be What it always is:JuSt the smallest of things.”

Bagatelleバ．ガ．テ．ル

“But there will be your smile in the end Because the one I love, is always Here with Me”

-For Shane and VirginieAvec moiiciイッショニ

Si je dois choisir de vivre une vieJe vivrai cette vie comme le meilleur de mes revesCe que j’ai vuCe que j’ai sentiJ’essayerai de les peindre ici

Ce seront les ruesJ’ai toujours connuesCe seront les images qui sont proches de mon coeurCe seront les visages que j’ai rencontresJe les apporterai ici

Ici, les fleurs colorant le jourLe soleil se laisse seulement la nuitLes etoiles ells ne sont pas caches pendant l’hiverEt la lueur, elle miroite dans tous les yeux

Il y a de la pluie aussi des larmesQuand tout ce que je fais parfois ne sert a rienMais il y aura des sourires a la finParce que tout ce que J’ai besoin est toujoursAvec moi ici　　

Ici il y a des gens que j’almeDes etrangers qui seront mes amisEt de jour comme de nuit,Le bruit des beaux enfantsRayonnera dans chaque coin de notre monde

Il y a de la pluie beaucoup des larmesMeme si ces moments passes se sont estompes　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Mais il y aura ton sourlre a la finParce que tout ce que nous avons besoinn’est jamais parti

Parce que tu,Celui que J’alme,est toujoursAvec moi ici

涼しい-Suzushii-

“From now on, Whatever happensYou’ll be the one I cherish”

-For Ryoko

どこかで 風が唄い淡く　なにを伝えそうに耳を澄まし　懐かしい色が　浮かべそうに

どこかで　雲が飾り藍く白く　空を描きゆらゆら　日だまりのうちにも　暖かい

わたしの幼いちび丸い瞳見せられくれた笑顔が優しく思いを抱き

あなたに伴い素直な微笑みあなたも言わない同じのひたむき

わたしの指先差しくれた誓い

これからもどんなになっても君を大切に

この手をつなぎ歩き ら . ら . ら . らこの日も 涼しい

Promising “When we meet again I shall become much betterStill, it shall be The same words,And the same song”

Erano per i tempiPer i ricordiPoi sapraiTutto quello che hai amatonon sono di qui

Eppure, pensi sempreLe immagini dei giorniAnche se i loro cuori non sono là più

因為她 所有的一切曾是妳 所有的笑顏那曾經 祇有依偎寧望著 屬於妳的眼

可是她 不屬於從前縱然妳 扔握住虧欠向過去 說聲再見讓妳們的永遠能夠改變

Anda bisa buka tangan ituAnda bisa buka pikiranAnda bisa buka hati kamiAnda dan Saya

振り向かずいつかに会う日がきっと 誰よりも来るんだと知ってた

Les chemins tu as choisiLes temps ils viennent et ils vontAlors, quand tu me revoisJe deviendrais bien mieuxMais ce seront toujoursLes mêmes mots, et la même chanson

それぞれの道それぞれを包む時そして そこに君の名を呼ぶ人が見つめる

次の季節までにはゆえば

There’s a place for seasonsThere’s a place for seasonsNow

Every Singular DayEvery Breath of SunshineBeams on my Face

Every Step on my WayTaking me throughEvery Hope that I’ve Made

There’ll be that Rain in the SkyThe Same Old DarknessThat Seeps into my EyesImages clouded in Disguise

Flickers and CriesThey’ve scorned a StormThat has not yet to beTaunting the Very Best in Me

But I’ll see through the LightAnd I’ll feel Moments in TimeWith my Heart I’ll Hear the EarthAnd all its Different BeatAll the Different Voices come from Within

Yes, I’ll see through the LightThere we’ll meet Moments in TimeWhen our Hearts have lifted SpiritsBack upon their feetStanding close for all thatWe can believe

Sunshine（Bonus Edition）

Every Singular DayEvery Piece of DreamYou’ve Paved on your Way

And Every Little MistakeEvery Bit of HeavenCarved out in Vain

I’ve seen that Fear in your SoulIt Soothed of Passion And it Spoke of PainWhen Things could never stay the Same

Comforts you seekAre but Illusions that should never beTrading the Love you’ve had for me

But You’ll see through the LightThere You’ll feel Moments in TimeWhen your Heart no longerWeeps for that you cannot reachTears would mean a newfoundStrength from within Every Silence You’ve StakedEvery Bitter EmbraceEvery Castle in SandThey’ll Fall andSlip through your Hands

Won’t you take on my PlaceLive my WorldSo You can Understand

Na na na na Na na na na

Is this my Fate?Is this the answer to these Winds of Change?These are the Songs We Cannot Wait

When We see through the LightWhere There’ll be more than We’ll FindWe will see through the LightAnd There’ll be more than We’ll Find

Sing it for SunshineSing it for LifeSing up for SunshineSing up for Life

We can see through the LightThere will be more than We’ll FindWe can see through the LightThere will be Moments in Time

When our HeartsCan Stand Together on a Different BeatAll our Different Voices Sing from Within

Sing Up for the Sun that Shines from Within
