    Default Futari no Basho

    Sorry but the translation of Futari no Basho has too many errors to enumerate. Would it be OK to replace the translation with mine (below)? As you can see there are lots of differences.



    Also the credits are
    lyrics by Katakiri Rekka

    sung by Katakiri Rekka
    My translation:


    I was gazing at the blue sky stretching endlessly above.
    It's a very empty colour never displaying anything at all.
    In spite of this, for some reason what appeared to shine
    was surely that you were beside me, smiling at me.

    And so my small but important wish
    that we could always stay together as one
    let us let into the wind and go to deliver it.

    We'll race through the lofty clouds shining white
    until we're free of this painful sorrow.
    And thus let us someday get through this long, long period
    and find a place for us that no one else knows.

    Let us flutter our soft, white wings.
    For if we believe, we can fly anywhere.

    There's nothing at all to fear.
    My small but important wish
    I'll definitely grant to you.

    Knit together with loneliness, fragility and kindness,
    your fragile body I was holding tight all this time.
    In time, your right hand, cold as ice,
    will set free our white bird.

    From the bottom of my heart, I continue to wish
    that you stay like this never letting go of our joined hands.
    And thus let us someday get through this long, long period
    and return to the place for us that no one else knows.

    While I agree that the current translation has many mistakes, and your translation is the superior one, and there's not really any way to contact the current translator as their site is down, you probably should make some attempt to justify why it's bad next time, just so we have some record of this.


    I have replaced the translation and credits.

    About half the lines had one or more mistakes so it would have taken quite some effort to explain all the errors. Thus I wanted to wait first and see if you asked for any specific details before going into it. But you've deleted the previous translation so I can't do that anymore. Anyway, thanks for updating it.



    Sorry I noticed a minor error in the romaji, v3 l4 "mitsuke you" → "mitsukeyou", probably a typo as the next line has "hatamekaseyo" as one word.

    Oops I missed that one when fixing the romanisation, nice catch. For the corrections, to be honest in a case like this where there are a lot of corrections just 3-5 of the most egregious lines would probably do it. This is just so there's some sort of history for the change in case the original translator comes back and realises it's been replaced. Let's face it though, the original poster is probably not coming back and we had no way of contacting them because no account and their website was dead.
