Out in a studio on the edge of the city
I spend my time making paintings that won't sell
You're a famous woman of Paris
the richest person in town

I wonder if it's too late for our love
If that chance has already passed us by

We had so many wonderful days together
Sneaking out to walk together in the night
Why didn't you come ask why I was late
on that day we were to meet?

Even though you know well
that your new boyfriend is a cold man

Marie, I love you
I want to hold you close, to have you by my side
Marie, I will paint your portrait
You've no need for adornment, just smile for me
Here, next to me

In that space where you want for nothing
have you really found what you hoped for?
You shone brighter in that simple dress then
than such a fancy silver garment

I finally found once again
the most beautiful smile I'd seen in my life

With a pistol to blow everything away
I'll pull the trigger on this gloomy world

Marie, understand my feelings
Surely there's nobody but me for you
Marie, let's go back to that small town someday
Laying together in a horse-drawn cart, rocking back and forth
Here next to me, together forever

-----------------------------------------------------

This song is based upon the story told in the film "A Woman of Paris," starring Charlie Chaplain. Sawao is well-known to be a fan of black-and-white cinema, and particularly of Chaplain's work.

A couple, Jean (who is an aspiring artist) and Marie, plan to elope to Paris together, and the Marie sneaks out to walk with Jean in the night before their elopement. Her father locks them out, and tells her to stay with Jean. Jean's family does not approve of their romance either, so Marie goes to the train station to wait. Jean promises to meet her, but his father dies that night, and Marie goes to the city without him upon his telephone call that he cannot leave yet.

She ends up becoming the mistress of a wealthy businessman named Pierre, and eventually runs into Jean again by chance due to entering the wrong building on her way to a friend's party, at which point she asks him to paint her portrait. When he goes to her rich apartment to begin his work, she learns of his father's death on the night of her departure. The two begin to date once again.

When Jean finishes her portrait, he has painted her not in the rich clothing she now wears, but the plain dress she wore on the night of their parting.

Jean proposes to Marie, but his mother, who lives with him in his small apartment, disapproves of this. He tells her that the proposal was not serious. Marie, who came to visit by surprise, heard him say this through the open door, and she returns to Pierre. Jean is unable to convince her that he was only telling the old woman what she wanted to hear, and he goes to the restaurant where Pierre and Marie are eating in one last attempt to speak to her. However, he ends up getting in a fight with Pierre and is kicked out.

Jean shoots himself next to a fountain at the restaurant's entrance and dies. Marie, upon hearing what happened, goes to his apartment and grieves over his body. She leaves Pierre and moves back to the country with Jean's mother, opening a home for orphans. In the final scene, Marie catches a ride back to the orphanage in a horse-drawn wagon, passing by Pierre's car as his chauffeur takes him on a drive through the country.

02 - boku wa kakera (romanized on the main site already, and also translated, but here's mine anyway)

What's right? My head can't figure it out
so won't you shout until it pierces my eardrums?
I'm constantly caught up worrying about things I can't change
Even if I'm a kid, I should still get it a bit more

I want to sweep away all these people with a huge mop
and just walk about carefree with you
I'm sick with something bad and won't get better
searching every day for an exit that can't exist

I'm a broken piece, alone

Things keep on going so badly it feels I'll lose it
Nobody appreciates the way I go about things
Wandering around beneath a puzzle-like sky
with these feelings, like I'd swell up and explode

Peel the flakes off of my eyeballs
I've always been half asleep, and still am
I want to be laughing as if I were having fun
but that other me interferes

I'm a broken piece, alone

That's some sort of lie, I won't believe it anymore
Emotionless tears
Even though I protected this taut string
you cut it with skillful scissors

Wrapped up in lonely nights
Even though I know it's a dead-end path
I'm still heading down it

How things are now has already been forgotten
I'm headed towards where we were to meet
Teach me so that my miserable legs can understand
that you're really gone

When you wanted to sleep, you'd call me up
and come to borrow my bed
I sang lullabies next to you
all through the night

Drowning in these sleepless nights
Even if I tried shaking my head, your relentless shadow
follows me along

When I casually read over that distant letter you sent again
it's so strange, you really did care for me
Are you truly indifferent now?

Drowning in these sleepless nights
Even if I tried shaking my head, your relentless shadow
follows me along

When I casually read over that distant letter you sent again
it's so strange, you really did care for me
Someday, that distant letter will become just another scrap of paper
Before I know it, that clear day will also come to my eyes
just like these endless tears do now

04 - NEVER FIND

Baby baby daremo mitenai bamen no naka he

I'm looking for true myself.

Hello, "Blame"
Speak your mind.........
The answer you never find.

Baby baby
I'm running away, with my ego uncovered
to a scene that nobody's watching

Baby baby
I wonder, if I were to reveal my hidden shape
would it allow me to wipe away the pain in my heart?

I'm looking for my true self
If I were to let it all out

Hello, "Blame"
Speak your mind
The answer you never find

Baby baby
The me reflected in the mirror
striking the anger right in front of me
was the liar

I'm looking for my true self
If I were to let it all out

Hello, "Blame"
Speak your mind
The answer you never find

I'm looking for my true self
If I were to let it all out

Hello, "Blame"
Speak your mind

Hello, "Blame"

90'S MY LIFE............
90'S MY LIFE............

-----------------------------------------------------

90's my life, the same as ever
this subdued era will probably keep going, but
90's my life, a wonderful dream
I want to grasp hold without overdoing it

It's always the same, up until now
I keep waking up just as I'm about to reach it

I'm anxious, but I can laugh at it all
because that day will surely come
It's frustrating, but I'm going to try my best
without complaining

90's my life, even though unpleasant things
and seasons I can't bear will surely come
90's my life, it can't be helped
this is the only road that we know

I'm done with just scowling
and spitting in front of this wall

I'm anxious, but I can laugh at it all
because that day will surely come
It's frustrating, but maybe we can try our best
without complaining

I'm anxious, but I can laugh at it all
because that day will surely come
It's frustrating, but I'm going to try my best
without complaining

90's my life

Cool. Hey, how do you do this so fast?

EDIT: Since these were from my scans, I would like to put them on my site. K?

it takes about 20 minutes per song, roughly. i had some time to actually use a computer in the last two days (yay).

i´m actually planning on joining your forum if i can, but if the computer blocks me, go ahead and post 'em tomorrow.

EDIT-joined up! posted the lyrics. again, thanks so much for those scans. you rock!

hey mare, could you translate pari no jousei marii and 90's my life?

I don't know, maybe someday.

oh, okay. looking forward to it.

[quote="pinaworks"]hey mare, could you translate pari no jousei marii and 90's my life? [/quote]

Touched up these romanizations.

I don't suppose anyone's got the lyrics to the other songs from 90s My Life Returns?

I might give Paris Gal Marie a shot at translating.

It's already been done, lol.

I used to have scans of 90mlr, but shit was too blurry to be useful.

After all the agonizing, unsuccessful searches, I decided to finally try translating "90's My Life," relying on the kanji lyrics from here: [url]http://lyrics.wikia.com/The_Pillows:90%27s_My_Life[/url] .

I am not fluent in Japanese, but just gave it my best shot in hopes that someone who [i]is[/i] can correct errors. I think I at least got the jist of the song. I hope. So, here goes:

90’s my life, same as ever
The era that had cooled down is still continuing, but
90’s my life, a wonderful dream
I wanted to seize it without pushing myself
That’s how it always was up until now
I opened my eyes just a little bit more

I was looking forward to it but they laughed at just about everything
Such days will surely come, so
Even if I’m irritated, I won’t make complaints
Watch me do my best

90’s my life, such unpleasant things
Seasons that I can’t endure will also come, but
90’s my life, it can’t be helped
I only know this road of ours

I spit in front of the wall
Doing nothing but scowling, I can’t settle down anymore!

I was looking forward to it but they laughed at just about everything
Such days will surely come, so
Even if I’m irritated, I won’t make complaints
I wonder if I can try doing my best

That’s how it always was up until now
I opened my eyes just a little bit more

I was looking forward to it but they laughed at just about everything
Such days will surely come, so
Even if I’m irritated, I won’t make complaints
I wonder if I can try doing my best

I was looking forward to it but they laughed at just about everything
Such days will surely come, so
Even if I’m irritated, I won’t make complaints
Watch me do my best

Hey you actually uploaded it! (Chick who commented your blog... hiya )
