Chocolate





(To view full version of the music video, please click [here].)







My gloomy heart hasn't refreshed yet. 
So I recalled your face,
And it brought me to tears somehow.

I wonder if something nice will happen to me today or tomorrow.
Ah, but I wished this million times already... 


All of my mean attitudes.
All of my pointless words.
They were surely not because of you.
My damn weakness should be concealed,
But it just flied away towards you.
I am done for... right?


I'm always "bitter" when being with you.
Easily troubled with anything and make complaints...
But my bitterness becomes sweet and is melted when I'm talking with you.
Mysterious power like chocolate...


Your smile which can not be lost.
Our current time which can not be lost.
I can't explain all of my feeling completely.
My robustness needed to be found.
But it just flied somewhere away in front of you.
I am done for... right?


The world only we can see together.
Your tender heart you always share with me.
They filled up the void in my heart.
You also have trying time, don't you?
But you still hold me tight now for me.
You still hold me tight today for me.


Thank you, and Sorry...
Thank you, and Sorry...


["Chocolate" by  Kaela Kimura, Lyrics translated by Ellie]


 from 6th Album "8EIGHT8"

Ow, THANK YOU SO MUCH, Ellie! *_* I can't even express how grateful I am right now!! >_<''

Chocolate became my favorite Kaela song and I've cried a lot too even without knowing its meaning but I think I always knew that it would fit my mood somehow, this feeling of sorrow is something that is always with me... >_<'

You don't have to be sorry, you did a really great translation! :) I couldn't help crying reading to it and I loved this part:
"My gloomy heart haven't refreshed yet.
So I recalled your face,
And it brought me to tears somehow."
T_T~

Thank you, once again! I'm really touched by the lyrics and by your kindness for translating it in full, I'll NEVER forget it :)

Best wishes for you and for your blog ^_^

Gus.

my pleasure, Gus :) I'm so happy that my translation seems to have helped you to understand this song's message xx

This song became my favorite one as well... When i found Kaela has released new song and listened to this for the first time, i couldn't say anything and just cried because some parts of this song's lyrics explained exact what i was feeling at that time... (´;ω;`) my favorite part is the first main chorus, so i posted it on my blog...
Yes, this song made me cry all the time too...
haha, somehow i feel we can be good friends! lol

Anyways how did you know this song? you like japanese musics? well, if you have some other japanese songs that you want me to translate into english, feel free to ask me :)

actually i don't know what happened to you, but cheer up please, Gus xxx :)
and thank you for your every kind word!

Ellie.

p.s. really wish i could read your portuguese blog too!!! lol

Yes, Ellie! Your translation helped me a lot! I don't know how to speak japanese but I understand some sentences that, most of the time, don't make any sense to the original ones D: I even printed the lyrics and put them in my notebook to read them anywhere! Today, when I was coming back from college, I listened to Chocolate reading and singing along nonstop, it's raining a lot here and it seems a good song for rainy days, it filled up the void in my heart ^_^

I LOVE japanese music and I think the best thing about it is its lyrics! I don't know how to say it but I think japanese songs are a lot more emotional than western songs >_<' I admire Japan a lot, you guys are really amazing!! :D I would say my favorite singer is aiko! But I listen to many other ones like: ayumi hamasaki, Maaya Sakamoto, Koda Kumi, ai otsuka, KOU Shibasaki, ayaka, Utada Hikaru, BONNIE PINK, BoA, TOHOSHINKI, moumoon... Many artists! :O I think I will never get enough of japanese music ^_^

Portuguese is a very tricky language! ahahah I usually write short chronics about daily things but it has been such a long time I don't write anything :/ I used to write in English too, I will try to find the english version of my last post so you can read it ^_^ The title "A primeira e última carta de verão" would be like this in English: "The first and the last summer letter", it is a story about a man who lost the woman he loves but it is not a sad story, it is about happiness!! :)

Once more: thank you for everything, Ellie! I also hope we can be good friends and I will cheer up! I promise! :)

Gus.

Aiko is also my favorite singer too!!! :D <3 Both when i'm suffering from broken heart and i'm falling love with someone, i'm always listening to her songs :) well well, you should to go to her concert if you can get any chance someday!!! Her performance is really really amazing and so much fun :D

i bet that you would like Kana Nishino's songs xx most of her songs are about love and her lyrics are much more direct expressions about girls' feelings towards bf/ex!!! lol

I can't wait to hear Zutto single! I loved the covers, as always ^^' And her concerts are AMAZING! :O I go crazy by only watching it on DVD that I can't even imagine my reactions when I go to the real show ahahaha I need to do the IJIWARU na Tenshi yo Sekai wo Warae! one day XD And also, I can't wait for the release of her 10th album! >_< Hope she gives information about it very soon... BABY was the album that I listened to the most in my whole life, I don't think she will disappoint me with the next one :P

Well, Kana Nishino, I need to listen her whole discography since I only know some songs and I quite like them ^^ The last song by her that I fell in love was Together! I like those happy type songs ahahaha Tatoe donna ni... is very nice too :) I always could imagine that she sings about love and ex's since it is something that everybody can relates to and she became so popular :O I will give her one more try :D

And also I can't hardly wait to write again >_< I don't have much time when I'm not on vacations ahaha This week as totally INSANE with lots of things to do, that's also why I couldn't reply earlier ^^' Being only a student is not that easy :/ Holidays, where are you? ahahahaha :)

Thanks,
Gus.
