I really like this song. It’s the Opening Song of Fullmetal Alchemist Anime from episode 1 to 14. One of a few song that I cannot skip. Read the lyric and translation after the break.

YUI – Again, Fullmetal Alchemist Opening Song Lyrics, Romanji, English Translation.

Kono omoi wo keshiteshimau niwa
I’ve still got a lot of years ahead of me

Mada jinsei nagai desho
To just erase these feelings?

Yarinokoshiteru koto
I want to go back and finish

Yaninaoshite mitai kara.
The things that I’ve yet to finish.

Yume no tsuzuki oikaketeita hazu nanoni,
I was supposed to be chasing after my ongoing dream,

Magarikunetta hosoi michi hito ni tsumazuku.
Yet I faltered over others while walking this thin, winding path.

Ano koro nitainitte modoritai wake ka nai no,
It’s not that I want to return to those days,

Nakushitekita sora wo sagashiteru.
I’m searching for the sky I lost.

Wakatte kuremasu youni,
Don’t make that sad face, as if you’ve fallen victim,

Gisei ni natta youna kanashii kao wa yameteyo
As if you want people to pity you.

Tsumi no saigo wa namida ja nai yo
Tears aren’t the end of your sins

Zotto kurushiku seottekunda
You have to bear them painfully, forever.

Degushi mienai kanjoumeiro ni
Who are you waiting for in the maze of emotions,

Dare wo matteruno?
Where you can’t even see the exit?

Shitoi notto ni tsuzutta youni,
I want to blurt it out more justly,

Motto sunao ni hakidashitai yo
Just like how I wrote it in my white notebook

Nani kara nogaretainda
What do you want to run from?

Genjitsu tte yatsu?
That thing called “reality”?

Kanaeru tame ni ikiterundatte,
I just want to scream out,

Sakebitaku naro yo kikoeteimasuka?
“I’m only living to fulfill my wish” Can you hear me?

Bunan ni nante yatterarenaikara.
I can;t take the safe way out of everything.

Kaeru basho no nai no.
I don’t even have a place to return to.

Yasashisa ni wa itsumo kansha shiteru.
I’m always thankful for everyone’s kindness.

Dakara tsuyoku naritai (I’m on the way)
That’s why I want to become stronger (I’m on the way)

Natsukashiku naru,
This is reminding me of the old days,

Konna itami mo kangei jan!
This pain is all right with me!
