supernova
Lyrics/Music: Fujiwara Motoo
Japanese:
熱が出たりすると 気付くんだ
僕には体があるって事
鼻が詰まったりすると 解るんだ
今まで呼吸をしていた事
君の存在だって
何度も確かめはするけど
本当の大事さは
居なくなってから知るんだ
延べられた手を拒んだ その時に
大きな地震が起こるかもしれない
延べられた手を守った その時に
守りたかったのは自分かもしれない
君の存在だって
もうずっと抱きしめてきたけど
本当に恐いから
離れられないだけなんだ
ラララ
人と話したりすると 気付くんだ
伝えたい言葉が無いって事
適当に合わせたりすると
解るんだ 伝えたい気持ちだらけって事
君の存在だって
こうして伝え続けるけど
本当のありがとうは
ありがとうじゃ足りないんだ
ラララ
僕らの時計の中
ひとつだけでもいいから
本当を掴みたくて
本当を届けたくて
歳を数えてみると 気付くんだ
些細でも歴史を持っていた事
それとほぼ同時に 解るんだ
それにも終わりが来るって事
君の存在だって
いつでも思い出せるけど
本当に欲しいのは
思い出じゃない今なんだ
君を忘れた後で 思い出すんだ
君との歴史を持っていた事
君を失くした後で 見つけ出すんだ
君との出会いがあった事
誰の存在だって
世界では取るに足らないけど
誰かの世界は
それがあって 造られる
君の存在だって
何度も確かめはするけど
本当の存在は
居なくなっても ここに居る
僕らの時計は
止まらないで 動くんだ
ラララ

Translation:
When I get sick I realize,
I realize I have a body
When my nose is stuffed up I know,
I know that I’ve been breathing all along
I’m always making sure
That you truly exist, but
The truth is that we only know how important it is
Once it is already gone
When your out-stretched hand defends
A great earthquake may occur
When your out-stretched hand protects
It may have wanted to protect yourself
I have always been holding
Your dear existence close to me
And it is because I’m afraid
So I don’t want to let go
Lalala…
When I talk to someone I realize,
I realize that I have nothing to say
When I want to line the pieces up I know,
I know that I wanted to speak my feelings
I have always been communicating
To your dear existence this way
In a true expression of gratitude
Saying “Thank you” isn’t enough
Lalala…
Within our clocks,
Just one is fine,
We want a firm grip
We want to send it over
As I watch myself grow old I realize,
I realize that I had a history though it was small
When I think about that I know,
I know that it will someday end
I’m always remembering
Your dear existence
And what I really want is
The part that isn’t just a memory
When I forget about you I remember,
I remember that you had a history
When I lose you I find that memory,
The memory that I once met you
There isn’t enough
For everyone’s existence
And in someone’s world
I will create it
I’m always making sure
That you truly exist, but
Even if existence goes away
It’s always here
Our clocks continue to move,
never stopping
Lalala…

カルマ
Lyrics/Music: Fujiwara Motoo
Japanese:
ガラス玉ひとつ 落とされた
追いかけてもうひとつ 落っこちた
ひとつ分の陽だまりに ひとつだけ残ってる
心臓が始まった時
嫌でも人は場所を取る
奪われない様に 守り続けてる
汚さずに保ってきた手でも
汚れて見えた
記憶を疑う前に 記憶に疑われてる
必ず僕らは出会うだろう
同じ鼓動の音を目印にして
ここに居るよ いつだって呼んでるから
くたびれた理由が重なって揺れる時
生まれた意味を知る
存在が続く限り
仕方無いから場所を取る
ひとつ分の陽だまりに
ふたつはちょっと入れない
ガラス玉ひとつ 落とされた
落ちた時 何か弾き出した
奪い取った場所で 光を浴びた
数えた足跡など
気付けば数字でしか無い
知らなきゃいけない事は
どうやら1と0の間
初めて僕らは出会うだろう
同じ悲鳴の旗を目印にして
忘れないで いつだって呼んでるから
重ねた理由を 二人で埋める時
約束が交わされる
鏡なんだ 僕ら互いに
それぞれのカルマを 映す為の
汚れた手と手で 触り合って
形が解る
ここに居るよ 確かに触れるよ
一人分の陽だまりに 僕らは居る
忘れないで いつだって呼んでるから
同じガラス玉の内側の方から
そうさ 必ず僕らは出会うだろう
沈めた理由に十字架を建てる時
約束は果たされる
僕らはひとつになる

Translation:
I dropped a single shard of glass
As I tried to grab it I dropped another one
In one minute’s silence, there’s only one left
When a heart first starts beating
People reluctantly take up space
And continue to protect it from being stolen
The hand you tried to keep clean
Was blood-stained
And before you doubt your memories, the memories doubt you
You’ll surely meet us
And you’ll mark the pulse that matches your own
We are right here, always calling out to you
And when the worn-out reasons begin to sway
You’ll understand the meaning of your existence
As long as you still exist
You have no other choice but to take up space
In one minute’s silence
You have trouble fitting two
I dropped a single shard of glass
When it fell, something shot out
And the place where it had been stolen was bathed in light
Counting numbers and the like
You realize there aren’t anything but numbers
The things you aren’t supposed to know
Are somewhere in-between 1 and 0
You’ll meet us for the first time
And you’ll mark the shriek’s flag that matches your own
Don’t forget that we’re always calling out to you
And when the two of you try to cover up those worn-out reasons
The promise will be made
It’s the mirror that binds us together,
One that reflects all karma,
The blood-stained hands will feel one another
And you’ll understand its form
We are right here, nearly touching each other
And we appear during the minute’s silence
Don’t forget that we’re always calling out to you
From the same side of the glass shard
Surely you’ll meet us
And when the cross replaces those sinking reasons
The promise will be fulfilled
And we will all join as one

BUMP! bands like this are few and far btween ! they rock! XD
I love Bump of Chicken ^^ They’re on of my favorite J-Rock bands.
I heard about them through one of my friends who lives in Japan.
Unfortunately, they aren’t really popular in America (where I live).
If one of their songs were to be an opening/ending for an anime, then it probably would be more popular in America :(
I told my friends about them, they like them alot~!
im a fan of them too!!! i wonder if its juz my taste~ but my fav song from them is Ginga Tetsudo(galaxy expressway) i sing it everyday lol…
BUMP is amazing! :)
But I think where lyrics are concerned, RADWIMPS conquers all. BUMP always makes me smile because they’re always so (seemingly) positive, but RADWIMPS tends to touch my heart and make me cry. It’s pretty darned amazing. o.O
I think my first BUMP song was “Sailing Day” (consider the history of my J-addiction as a manga-anime lover), but it didn’t catch much of my attention back then. sou. ^^; ano… Maybe it’s because I was still a newbie in J-music sphere. I haven’t heard a lot of genres in J-music and I naturally followed the mainstream… wakarimasen desu~. O/Z
Enough with my boring intro…
Now I’m head over heels with them. Gosh, the last time I felt this ecstatic on my favorite band was long way back in my junior-high years, I guess. Friends who normally share similar interests on J-culture even got amazed that I’ve become to like them in the first place. “I don’t know why you like them,” one of them once said (after she gave me a glance of “Karma”’s PV).
It (re-)started when I heard “Namida no furusato” and played it regularly with my iTunes, back in early 2006 (maybe it was because I was homesick at that time, lol)… Then I tried to listen to “Flame Vein+1″ album and “Diamond” single, and found out that their “raw” sounds in those records were similar as my all-time favorite’s, The Beatles (especially from their rock ‘n roll period of late 60s)… I fell in love (literally) with Fujiwara-sama’s voice when I heard their cover (of The Pillows’), “Hybrid Rainbow”, and continue to love them ’till now…
Has anyone here listen to “Orbital Period”??? My favorites there are “voyager”, “Hammer Song to Itami no Tou”, and “kasabutabutabu” (besides their previous single releases included in it, of course)!! I’d appreciate it, if you’d like to review it here.
Now I’m obsessed with them, I start to think of ways to go to their concerts… I even wonder how to meet and talk to them in person… Freak.
just listening to them~~
love karma n sailing day~~
I am a filipina.. but this japanese band really caught my attention when i first heared their song “the present” and “snow smile”… thanks to my japanese student for sending me the link….. Love this band…. I look forward to watch their concert…
I love them!!!
Hey I’m Luke Uhia Le I Just Wanted To Say Its Nice Having You Guys Along And Your Music Is Awesome In TOTA/Tales Of The Abyss Main Char: Luke Fon Fabre
Hey guys i am Aussi and friend just got me into Bump shes Japanese, she’s been doings forigen exchange program for 3years or so, and last week on her birthdy she let me borrow a random Bump mix she made for me. So i listened to that now i’m hooked on Sailing Day!! I love it so much that i am aculary learning the Japanese lyrics!!!
And funny enough i just found that i share a birthday with Masukawa Hiroaki the guitarist!! And i play both drums and guitar, and i laughed when i found that his birthday is mine because i found it so awesome!!
BUMP OF CHICKEN!!!!
to arcadia:
hey, i found the laughmaker romaji lyric + translation @
http://www.animelyrics.com/jpop/bumpofchicken/laughmaker.htm
try to search the site, probably there’s much more bumps lyrics
if you wanna search for their pic, try googling “excite” “bump of chicken”
I use to open it and bump usually have routine interview with the site, with very cool pic too! i’ll sent you one pic to your mail then. enjooy!
btw, does anyone already have the latest album? do they have the “bonus track” inside the album?
@xin : Sure ! I’d like to understand every songs of Bump. Please send it to me ^^ my mail must be somewhere in the comments.
@ai : the last new album was orbital period but they released a CD with the B tracks of the singles + one new song last week. The CD is “present from you”
There are not many Bump websites. I couldn’t find many pictures of them. Do you guys have websites ro recommend ?
to arcadia:
the only translation i have which is not from centigrade-j is “laughmaker”
founded in internet and it is rather a messed-up translation tho, but i can catch the point of the song and i think it’s quite a cute song.
if you want it just tell me. ;D
to xin :
thank you, it was precisely the website where I was reading the translation. I couldn’t find another website with the lyrics and translation of the other songs. Please let me know if you find lyrics and translation !
to xin :
thank you, it was precisely the website where I was reading the translation. I couldn’t find another website with the others
Mika, yes I’m japanese. :-)
You did?! I’ve never been to their concert so I wanna watch!!! :-P
Does BUMP sell new CD? I mean, when BUMP sell next CD…?
Last album was “orbital period”, right?
I don’t have CD player in Canada so I can’t buy and listen :-(
Mika, where are you from? You said “I went to BUMP concert in Niigata”.
Do you live in Niigata?
I wanna go their concert!
to arcadia
if you want some of the translation i have it from the site centigrade-j.
i dont have all but if you need some which i have, i’ll give it to you.
I think I’ll go to Japan too. But I don’t know if I will go in September with a friend or in 2009. I’d like to visit during a warm and nice period, maybe in April or May, when the cherry tree blossom. I think I’ll make up my mind depending on Bump’s tour lol
Either way, I need to get free time (not easy with work and all) and I have to gather more money.
Mika, French is a hard language, right. If you’re still up to it, I believe there was a web radio with French simple vocabulary. I’ll try to get it. I don’t understand bump lyrics but I read English translations on the web. Too bad I can’t find them all.
to Mika
here’s my e-mail:
knghtmare4472744@yahoo.com
Hello^^
>Ai
You are a Japanese ,right?
I bought a new DVD of BUMP.
It is so cool and funny.:)
>xin
Do you have e-mail?
If you know the romaji lyric, I will send you it !!
>arcadia
I cannnot listen to French well.
It is so hard for me~
Do you understand lyrics of BUMP?
Oh, you going to Tokyo? and you have japanese friend too? Cool! :-P
How long will you stay in Japan?
I’ve never visited Kansai… but I think Kansai is really cool place!
I’m from Aomori. Do you know that? It’s close to Hokkaido. My country is cold and small.
Kansaiben is sooooo cool! :-D I wanna study too! my friend is from Hyogo(Kansai). She lives in Canada too so I’ll meet her in this summer vacation. I’ll hear her Kansaiben! :-)Haha
I think about stranger who speaks Kansaiben, that’s sooo COOL! I don’t think it’s strange!
I can speak Tsugaruben(it’s Aomori’s dialect). My school’s English teacher is Irish and He can speak Tsugaruben little bit. :-) That’s cool! So you can speak Kansaiben a lot!
(and I don’t know “irrated” mean… I looked up my dictionary but I coudn’t find…{’A`})
I hope you spend good time in Japan! :-P
oh yes I think Bump is known in several countries because there is a lot of people who like Japan in the world. And Bump makes good songs.=)
I am going to Tokyo in August, in a Japanese school, and then, in September I will visit my friends in Kansai(in Osaka and Kyoto) and in Hiroshima.
Ai where are you from?I would like to study Kansaiben too!!!XD
But what do you think about a stranger who speaks Kansaiben?is it strange?Are Japanese people irrated when strangers speak Japanese dialects?
thanks
hello!
Wow! BUMP is famous in the whole world, isn’t it?
And visual kei and anison are famous too! :-)
I often listen those. I think those are not famous in Japan…
Some people likes those.(like me!)
I knew Ayumi Hamasaki and Hikaru Utada are famous in US.
But I didn’t know they are famous in Europe! :-P
Faye, you going to go Japan!? COOL!
My friend sent e-mail “I went to BUMP concert in April!”.
Maybe BUMP is doing concert all over Japan tour.
But they dosen’t come small country. My country is small so…
Where will you go in Japan? I mean, Tokyo, Osaka…
I wanna go back to Japan! and I wanna go BUMP concert!!!!!!
But I’ll go back to Japan next January… :-(
Maybe you’ll be amazed if I told you that I’m a Moroccan Bump Of Chicken fan, and I even got a band and we’re covering many of their songs here in Morocco ^^
So HELL YEAH, they’re famous all over the world !
oops excuse me!I am very sorry: Sasha, not Sacha
hello!
my name is Faye and I am French.I am deeply crazy about Bump of Chicken and I hope to see them soon.
I agree with Sacha, I study Japanese at the University, so all my friends love Japan, Japanese music, Japanese culture….but they hardly know about Bump of Chicken.They are very keen on visual kei and bands like Dir en grey, l’Arc en ciel, Gazette…..but that is all!!!!!!!It’s a pity!!!!
As far as I am concerned I like visual kei but I prefer Bump of Chicken.
I would like them to try to listen to Bump’s musics but there is nothing to do.=(
I am going to Japan in August and I would like to buy tickets for their concert but I don’t know where to ask…….can anybody help me?
thanks
and “vive bump of chicken”!^^
Hello!
Very few people know about BUMP OF CHICKEN in the US and Europe unfortunately…
As far as I know, their CD’s are not released in Western countries, so the only way to listen to them is to import their Japanese CD’s. ;_;
In the US and Europe, anison and Visual-Kei are the most popular type of songs! Few people know about bands like BUMP OF CHICKEN or Mr. Children for example, because they don’t make anime songs.
Indie Visual Kei bands are more known in Europe than SMAP! It is turned upside down.
And most of the people who listen to anison or V Kei don’t know it is minor genre in Japan!
I like BUMP too though, and wish they were more known in western countries too!
Even European artists that sing in Romanian (Dragostea Din Tei, koi no maiahhi) get released in Japan, why good Japanese artists like BUMP OF CHICKEN or Mr. Children, can’t get released in the West!
Even million sellers artists like Ayumi HAMASAKI or Hikaru UTADA’s CD’s (apart from her English album EXODUS) are not released in Western countries. Only some Visual Kei and anison…
Hi!
I love BUMP so much!
They are GGENIUS!!
I’m japanese but I live in CANADA.
I’m exchange student.
So I really miss BUMP OF CHICKEN! :-(
Maybe Canadian people dosen’t know BUMP.
I hope that BUMP will be popular in CANADA! :-P
If you talk with me I’m soooo glad! :-)
hey, neil and myka
after you guys both talking about the song “laughmaker” i begin to listen to that song and I really really like it. it become my everyday song!
i accidentally found the translation on the internet and i think it is a very interesting lyric.
for anyone who haven’t listen to “laughmaker” the song will be in the new album.
i wonder will they make a compilation of all their hillarious bonus track?? ^_^
Btw, does anyone have the romaji lyric of “laughmaker” and “bye bye sankyu”??
i like both songs but havent have the lyric yet.
Not so much in France, though I found a few French people who are fond of it on the net.
France is getting more and more interested in J-music. L’arc en Ciel and X-japan will come soon in Paris and Kokia and Visual Kei bands have become quite popular. French J-music fans are especially Visual Kei fans. It’s uncommon but I dislike Visual … There’s also a growing community into j-dramas and obviously into Johnny’s.
That’s why I’d be glad to talk about Bump with any fan from all over the world.
Feel free to contact me at arcadia [at] hotmail.fr
Mika, if you need help with French, you can ask me.
Hello!
Yes!
New album will be sold soon.
I like B tracks songs!!!!
BUMP OF CHICKEN …is popular in France or America?
I heard it was a compil of their B tracks with only one new song.
correction: I’m an idiot – it’s Ajikan’s new album coming out on the 9th.
hey there!
I’ve loved Bump since high school.
They were always played over the
PA system during cleaning, which
is where I first heard them.
Personally, I’m not such a big fan
of their “hit” songs; Lamp, Karma,
Only Lonely Glory, etc.
I much prefer songs like
乗車権、Ｓａｉｌｉｎｇ Ｄａｙ，and 彼女と星の椅子。
It’s always amazed me how little Americans
who like Japanese music know of Bump.
They’re pretty popular in JP, but maybe their
music isn’t different enough for people who
can’t speak 日本語 to appreciate.
Anyways, their new album is coming out May 9th,
so everyone can look forward to that!
