Hatsune Miku: When The First Love Ends PV (English Sub + Romaji)

Details

Description

Credit where it is due: The maker of this brilliant PV is HDA, at http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm6704231. The original is http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm5524166 by supercell, music by ryo and video by Makuu and art by Shirow Miwa. The subtitling work is as you might guess mine. I'm terribly surprised there hasn't been a sub of this version before -- it's not even well known in the Japanese fandom either, which is a shame, because it's great work. I'm sorry if you guys have been missing my videos over the past however long it's been, but subtitling is very taxing for me. The encoding on this was at least three solid hours of work, you know? One more thing: These English lyrics were WRITTEN TO BE SUNG; in fact, that was my intention, but... I can't manage it, haha. You've been warned.

ENGLISH:

The first time that you and I kissed
I know I tasted tears on your lips
It was just like love in romantic comedies
And like somebody planned it out
The bell announcing your departure rang

A chilly wind brushes against my cheek as I walk out in the street
As I blow on my hands, it's no help, I see my breath
All the streets are full of shining lights
It's so magical, just like a spell
All the bare trees are sparkling too, like Tinseltown

No matter what, I couldn't tell you this
The way that I feel was hidden so deep inside
Right from the start, I decided that
This was what I wanted to do about it
So I'm not going to turn back

Thank you and farewell, my darling
It breaks my heart, not feeling the same
If I stop walking away, I'll just remember it again
So I'll say

Thank you and farewell, my darling
I'm not gonna cry or anything
And in the same moment that that thought crossed my mind
Snowflakes fell gently from the sky
They touched my fingers and melted away

A block from the train station on the street
I see them walking, a couple looking so happy
"Oh, hey, dear, look! The year's first snow!"
I wanted to be like that with you; with that idea
I made for you, for the first time
With my own hands, a knitted scarf

What should I do, I just passed up my chance
I was cowardly and got way too scared again
If I start to remember I'll say
"I should just keep things the way that they are, yeah"
Is that how I really feel?

Thank you and farewell, my darling
Sooner or later this day would come
I should have understood that, I knew it deep down from the start
But you know

Thank you, darling, is this farewell?
I'm shivering throughout my body
In a moment your train is going to be here
Is it already that time, so soon?
The knowledge makes me feel heartache

Let's be together...
I don't know how many times I've wished that
Now my hands have nothing to hold
Hey, is this really what it means to say farewell?

I've got to leave now
I should know that's how it works by now
Even though I also know how kind and sweet you have been
So that's why
"Please stop holding onto my hand, dear"
I'm still glad that I could meet you
And, yes, I love you

Thank you and farewell, my darling
I can't even say a single word
Just for now all I need is the courage to say one thing
"You know, I--"

The distance between my lips saying those words and yours becomes zero
So just this one time is it fine for me to cry
And we don't need those words any more
Please just hold me in your arms one last time

And a year from now I wonder how it'll be
What kind of person I'm gonna be
What kind of person you'll have become by then
