[REQ] Hysteresis- Electrocutica [Translation]

[DYE.]

Hi, I have a request... (First time requesting, so I hope I do this right.)

Song Description-
Title- Hysteresis
Singer- Yanagi Nagi (Gazelle)
Composer- Treow
Album- [Hysteresis]

The song's a bit older now. But, can someone translate the song into english for me?
If anyone can, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Btw, the site has the lyrics, if that helps at all.

Thanks again. ^^

Dear lord, another Electrocutica request? O.O

But yes, you have no idea how much the lyrics HELP. Someone else made another Electrocutica request back in December, but since the lyrics were nowhere to be found, we had to wait for 3 weeks for a kind person to finally provide the lyrics.

Anyway, having given a quick scan of the lyrics to this song, I can safely say it'll be another challenging song to translate, but that's what I like! I'll work on it.

Hysteresis

Yep, this song was another absolute nightmare to translate. Too many puns, double-meanings, irregular kanji readings, structure fragments, and confuzzledness. I tried to make as much sense out of this muddle of hell spices as possible, but you may still find certain parts' meaning a bit...evasive. To make you feel better, the original Japanese lyrics are actually a lot worse and even harder to understand.

(My prayer of the week: please lest there be any more Electrocutica translation requests)

I think you mean that...you don't want there to be any more Electrocutica lyrics requests?

Yep, that's exactly what "lest" means XD

[Hikarin]

Yes! You may come across that word Riiko as part of a very important war quote! For example, on ANZAC day, either at your school or often in your town, there will be a service at a certain time. You will all face west, hear a trumpet play The Last Post, then someone will say a quote from a poem which I believe is called "For the Fallen" which goes:

"They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest we forget."

after which everyone will repeat "Lest we forget" which means that we will not forget their sevice.^^

Wow, that was so fast. You're amazing.
Yeah, I asked my friend to translate it for me one time. She gave up after a few lines, said it was confusing even in Eng too.
You're super pro if you can understand all of it. (Eng and Jap). And, I think the translation's really good. I understood it.
Thanks a lot. I really appreciate it. ^^
