Flyby English Lyrics Translation


ENGLISH


Flyby

No matter how
Far away I become
I will always
Be orbiting around me
No matter how
Far away you become
You will always
Be orbiting around you

Please reply!
I went around and arrived at
The other side of your heart
Flyby
Even though the distance is so great
I'm sure that I was right by your side
Bye-bye
I don't care if I forget
'Cause I won't forget
I'm hoping that you will reply
Always
Hoping that you will reply
I'll ride on the voice that
You taught me to have
And send you a melody

XX day of XX month
Today I send a transmission again
But there is no reply
No matter how
Far away I become
I will always
Be orbiting around your heart

JAPANESE


Flyby

ワタシハ
ドンナニ離レテモ
イツダッテ僕ノ
周回軌道上
アナタハ
ドンナニ離レテモ
イツダッテ君ノ
周回軌道上

應答願ウ
心ノ裡側ヲ
グルリト回リ戾ッテキタ
flyby
距離ハソノママデモ
確カニスグ側ニ居タ
バイバイ
忘レテモ構ワナイ
忘レナイカラ
應答願ウ
ズット
應答願ウ
教エテモラエタ
聲ヲ乘セテ
メロディ一ヲ送ル

○月×日
本日モ通信試ミルガ
應答ハ無シ
アナタハ
ドンナニ離レテモ
君ノ心ノ
周回軌道上

OPINION

This song is basically an alternate version of Voyager when you look at just the lyrics. When you hear it, though, it sounds very different in terms of emotion and power. It focuses on hearts and elaborates on the story that you have to infer from the first song. Another interesting thing: I won't be putting up lyrics since there are none, but there are two more songs, "星の鳥" and "星の鳥 reprise" ("Star Bird" and "Star Bird Reprise") that are sort of wordless mixes of Voyager and Mayday. They work as bridges between other songs on their album.
