Ikimono Gakari – YELL Music Video w/ English & Japanese Lyrics

Such a touching song. It reminds me of school and how we have to let go of a lot of things in order to acheive other things or find ourselves. Ikimono Gakari voice is so nice. She sang “Yell” very well. My favourite scene was when Ikimono and the other kids were in front of the chalk board with rings in the background.

Japanese lyrics:
Watashi wa ima doko ni aru no to
Fumishimeta ashiato wo nando mo mitsume kaesu
Kareha wo daki akimeku madobe ni
Kajikan da yubisaki de yume wo egaita

Tsubasa wa aru noni tobezu ni irun da
Hitori ni naru no ga kowakute Tsurakute
Yasashii hidamari ni kata yoseru hibi wo
Koete bokura kodoku na yume e to aruku

SAYONARA wa kanashii kotoba janai
Sorezore no yume e to bokura wo tsunagu YELL
Tomo ni sugoshita hibi wo mune ni daite
Tobidatsu yo hitori de tsugi no sora e

Bokura wa naze kotae wo asette
Ate no nai kuragari ni
Jibun wo sagasu no darou
Dareka wo tada omou namida mo
Massugu na egao mo koko ni aru noni

“hontou no jibun” wo dareka no kotoba de
tsukurou koto ni nogarete mayotte
arinomama no yowasa to mukiau tsuyosa wo
tsukami bokura hajimete asu e to kakeru

Sayonara wo dareka ni tsugeru tabi ni bokura mata kawareru tsuyoku nareru ka na
tatoe chigau sora e tobitatou tomo todae wa shinai omoi yo ima mo mune ni

Eien nado nai to (kidzuita toki kara)
Warai atta ano hi mo (utai atta ano hi mo)
Tsuyoku (fukaku) mune ni kizamarete iku
Dakarakoso anata wa (dakarakoso bokura wa)
Ta no dare de mo nai (dare ni mo make nai)
koe wo (agete) “watashi” wo ikite iku yoto

yakusoku shitan da hitori (hitori) hitotsu (hitotsu) michi wo eranda

SAYONARA wa kanashii kotoba janai
Sorezore no yume e to bokura wo tsunagu YELL
Itsuka mata meguriau sono toki made
Wasure wa shinai hokori yo tomo yo sora e

Bokura ga wakachiau kotoba ga aru
Kokoro kara kokoro e koe wo tsunagu YELL
Tomo ni sugoshita hibi wo mune ni daite
Tobidatsu yo hitori de tsugi no sora e

English lyrics: (which probably won’t make a lot of sense)
I said Where am I now?
I stare at the footprint that I stepped cautiously on many times in my past
In the window which I hold a dead leaf, now autumn,
I drew a dream with the finger tip that has now become numb

I have wings but I cannot fly
I am scared and it is more difficult when Im alone
Everyday life which in the kind like pleat ball the shoulder is justified
We walk over to a lonely dream

GOODBYE is not a sad word
It is a YELL that connects our dreams together
I hold the days that we spent together to my chest
I fly to the sky of the future by my own

I being hasty and why I want to answering the gloom which does not have the address
I will look for myself
As for the tears which merely yearn for somebody
Though here is the straight smile

Someone said I am the true
So, I run to try to keep up, and then become lost
With a plain weakness and strength I face them
We get caught, and we run for the first time to tomorrow

Whenever you say goodbye to somebody
Can you become stronger
Even though we fly away to the different skies
The desire does not broken and it still on my chest

If there is no eternity (Since I noticed it)
We laughed that day (we sang on that day)
It keeps being cut strongly deeply in the chest
That’s why you (That’s why we)
We don’t have anyone else (I will not lose anybody)
When I give a voice and live in
And so we depart to the paths of our own choosing

GOODBYE is not a sad word
It is a YELL that connects our dreams together
Sometimes I come across you again
To the sky, the pride that does not forget a friend

These are the words that we share
It is the YELL that connects our hearts to each other
I hold the days that we spent together to my chest
I fly to the future by my own
