Be Your Hero - TSUKIUTA (Udzuki Arata & Satsuki Aoi)

歌詞日本語で

歌詞の使用は自由ですが、私のクレジットを記載することを忘れないでください (～￣▽￣)～

卯月新 & 皐月葵

子供の頃に描いた夢が胸に焼き付いて今でも熱いかを救う　大きな背中無邪気に憧れたんだ

(Hero) 言葉にすればチープなんだけど君にはいつも笑っていて欲しい空回ってたって助けたくて衝動のまま手を伸ばした

泣いているの？　暗闇に響く声聞こえたから　君のもとへ行くよ

正しいことは　何か求めても答えなど誰にも分からない間違うことも　恐れず踏み出せればその涙拭うヒーローになれるかな

(Hero) 大人になればみんな変わって涙のあとも隠し慣れていく仮面をつけて戦うだけじゃその傷は癒されないのかな？

どこにいるの　息苦しい夜も？何が出来る？　僕は歩まなくちゃ

この手に残る希望握りしめ不確かな未来にこみ上がる失うこともあるだろう生きる限りそれでも進んでいく憧れを引き連れて

理想には　遠い山カッコ悪くて泥臭くても僕への旅路を行こう正しいことはなにか求めても答えは自分にしか出せないな間違うことも恐れず踏み出そう憧れの先に僕はなるんだその笑顔を守る君だけのヒーローに

Lyrics Romanji

Uduki Arata & Satsuki Aoi

Kodomo no koro ni egaita yume ga Mune ni yakitsuite ima demo atsui Dareka wo sukuu ookina senaka Mujaki ni akogaretanda

(Hero) Kotoba ni sureba chiipu nan dakedo Kimi ni wa itsumo waratte ite hoshii Karamawatte tatte tasuketa kute Shoudou no mama te o nobashita

Naite iru no? Kurayami ni hibiku koe Kikoeta kara kimi no moto e yuku yo

Tadashii koto wa nanika motomete mo Kotae nado dare ni mo wakaranai Machigau koto mo osorezu fumidasereba Sono namida nuguu hiiro wo ni nareru ka na

(Hero) Otona ni nareba minna kawatte Namida no ato mo kakushi narete iku Kamen wo tsukete tatakau dake ja Sono kizu wa iyasenai no ka na?

Doko ni iru no ikigurushii yoru mo? Nani ga dekiru? boku wa ayumanakucha

Kono te ni nokoru kibou nigirishime Futashika na mirai ni komi ageru Ushinau koto mo aru darou ikiru kagiri Sore demo susunde iku akogare wo hikitsutte

Letra en Español

Son libres de usar la traducción, pero no olviden darme crédito (～￣▽￣)～

Uduki Arata & Satsuki Aoi

El sueño que dibujé cuando era niño En mi pecho todavía arde con calidez Esa gran espalda que salva alguien y que Anhelaba inocentemente

(Héroe) En otras palabras, solo Quiero que siempre sonrías Para poder ayudarte aunque solo este inmóvil Por impulso extendí mi mano

¿Estás llorando?, Una voz resuena en la oscuridad Te escuché, así que iré hacía ti

Incluso si pido algo correctamente Nadie sabe la respuesta Si doy un paso hacía adelante sin miedo a equivocarme Me pregunto si podré convertirme en un héroe que limpie esas lágrimas

(Héroe)Todo el mundo cambia cuando crece Estoy acostumbrado a esconderme incluso después de llorar Solo ponte una máscara y pelea Me pregunto si, ¿esas heridas no sanarán?

¿Dónde estás, incluso en las noches sofocantes? ¿Que puedo hacer?, sólo tengo que caminar

La esperanza que queda en estas manos La levantaré hacia un futuro incierto Mientras viva habrá cosas que perderé Aun así, seguiré adelante y lo llevaré junto con mi anhelo

En una montaña ideal lejana Incluso si no es genial ni refinada Haz un viaje acudiendo a mi Incluso si pido algo correctamente Solo yo puedo dar la respuesta No tengas miedo de cometer errores, demos un paso hacía adelante Al final me convertiré, en mi anhelo Ser tu propio héroe que proteja esa sonrisa

English Lyrics

You are free to use the translation, but don't forget to give me credit (～￣▽￣)～

Uduki Arata & Satsuki Aoi

The dream I drew when I was a child In my chest it still burns with warmth That big back that saves someone and that I yearned innocently

(Hero) In other words, justI want you to always smile To be able to help you even if I'm only immobile On impulse I extended my hand

Are you crying? A voice echoes in the dark I heard you so I'll come to you

Even if I ask for something correctly No one knows the answer If I take a step forward without fear of being wrong I wonder if I can become a hero to wipe away those tears

(Hero) Everybody changes when they grow up I'm used to hiding even after crying Just put on a mask and fight I wonder if those wounds won't heal?

Where are you, even on sweltering nights? What can I do? I just have to walk

The hope that remains in these hands I will lift her into an uncertain future As long as I live there will be things that I will lose Still I'll go ahead and take it along with my longing

On an ideal mountain far away Even if it's not cool or refined Take a trip coming to me Even if I ask for something correctly Only I can give the answer Don't be afraid to make mistakes, let's take a step forward In the end I will become, in my longing Be your own hero that protects that smile

What're the Key Release and Card Capture for Clear Card are going to be like in Cardcaptors: Clear (the Nelvana dubbed's name for CCS: Clear Card Arc if it's ever happened)? Key Release according to OG version:: "Yume no chikara o himeshi kagi yo, Shin no sugata o ware no mae ni shimese. RERI-ZU!"(English: "Key which hides the forces of dreams, Reveal your true form before me. Release!")Card Capture according to OG version: "Aruji naki mono yo. Yume no tsue no moto, Ware no chikara to nare! SEKYUA!" (English: Force without master. Heed the call of my staff of dreams, and become my power! SECURE!"). Example: The Key Release in Cardcaptors (Nelvada version of Cardcaptor Sakura) is "Key of Clow, Power of magic, power of light, Surrender the wand, the force ignite! Release!" while Card Capture in Cardcaptors is "Return to your power confined! CLOW CARD!". So what're the Nelvada version is going to be like?

I'm sorry but I'm not from the US, therefore I'm not familiar with Nelvana and their patterns of adaptation for the US audience. I've only watched some limited bits of "Cardcaptors" and got plenty of info about it from several sources and honest to god, thinking about how they butchered the OG anime of Cardcaptor Sakura to fit their "narrative", changing even the order of the aired episodes, I don't wanna even think about it. (Yes, sorry to the nostalgics but I'm pretty peeved about "Cardcaptors" - which I consider something totally separate from CCS, it's another story and an insult to the original one. All the characters sounded like ass*oles in the English fanfictions little me found in the early 2000s and only years later I realized why.)

FAVORITE ALBUMS OF 2022

Hi so I did this before and want to try doing it again. I know it’s November and some great albums could show up in December but I doubt it. my music listening has pretty much always been focused on new music and rarely look backwards. So this is going to be all about new albums, kind of want to do a film one but I haven’t really watched any 2022 movies, I just had zero interest in new movies but watched a lot of older movies and kind of want to do a list of faves of those. I seriously doubt anyone will read all of this or that but who knows.

1. Caprisongs - FKA Twigs

This has been my favorite album since the start of the year. It’s such a wide ranging and interesting album from start to end. She is having so much fun making this, from the interludes to the instrumentals to the singing it’s all just fun and excitement.

2. Dawn FM - The Weeknd

This was my number 1 for a like a week then I listened to Caprisongs. It’s just everything that Abel does well. It’s a whole world in an album. He’s such an exciting voice in the world of music

3. Once Twice Melody - Beach House

there’s no real order to the rest of these albums so don’t judge me on the order. I had so much fun with the release of this album, it has 3 parts and we got bits and pieces of it till we got the whole thing. It’s such a massive but interesting album.

4. Renaissance - Beyoncé

dance bops that were perfect for a summer after a long period of craziness

5. Surrender - Maggie Rogers

the wu tang clan of techno folk returns with another great album. want want is my favorite off of this.

6. Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers - Kendrick Lamar

It’s Kendrick of course this is on here. It’s a messy but interesting album, he really goes into some tough topics. While he isn’t perfect he’s working on himself and making himself a better person and I hope his perspective helped end some bigotry of other people.

7. Let’s Have a Dream - Yoko Ono & Plastic Ono Super Band

I have to have a weird pick so heres my live Japanese concert by Yoko Ono from 1974. She’s such an artist and it’s so sad how she was treated because a bunch of people hated that John Lennon loved her. as for the music it goes from loud and angry to lovely. Yume O Moto is a great listen

8. The Loneliest Time - Carly Rae Jepsen

ok this isn’t my favorite of her works, but she is one of the best pop artists we have and a lesser work is still great. My only issue is that I feel like she is still working in the same music world since emotion. This and dedicated feel like they belong with that album and I want to see her expand into something new. That being said she’s still doing what she is doing at a super high level and some bops were made.

9. Alpha Zulu - Phoenix

Phoenix have some of the weirdest lyrics in the world but it’s all vibes and the vibes are amazing.

10. Crybaby - Tegan and Sara

I haven’t spent enough time on this to fully no what to say here but I love this. They are so clearly excited about music again. It’s just such a burst of energy.

11. Midnights - Taylor Swift

so this is an indie artist and she really needs to be played more. This album has been talked about a lot and I have some mixed feelings on it, but after a lot of her stupid controversies around this album I’m getting to the star wars point where I will like everything she puts out there and at this point don’t want to hear from other fans cause we won’t agree, cause Karma is a cat and I’m just a sexy baby

12. King’s Disease III - Nas

I’m not really a big Nas fan, I listened to the Illmatic because I heard it was one of the great rap albums and an influence on good kid. I randomly listed to 2 when it came out and really liked this and then loved this one. That he’s still still one of the best rappers out there and willing to go into so many different topics is great.

13. The Car - Arctic Monkeys

this is the controversial pic of the list. I really love their new sound. Tranquility is such an amazing album and this is a more mainstream version of that one.

Honorable mentions

These are some Albums I had a lot of fun with but for what ever reason didn’t listen to enough to really get to that faves area or just didn’t leave the impact I would want sort of thing. also this get’s up to 22 😉

Laurel Hell - Mitski

LP.8 - Kelly Lee Owens

Shunka Ryougen - Haru Nemuri

Super Champon - Otoboke Beaver

Simple Sentences - Shoko Igarashi

World Wide Pop - Superorganism

Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms, & Lava - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

Changes - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

RTJ CU4TRO - Run The Jewels

YOASOBI 「もしも命が描けたら」 “If You Could Draw Life” - 歌詞と英訳

note: every 「描く」 is pronounced 「えがく」. rōmaji below the cut!

月が綺麗な夜に森の中でただ一人この世界から旅立つ前にこれまでの日々を浮かべる

on a night when the moon is beautiful i’m all alone in the middle of the forest before i set out on a journey away from this world i’ll recall all the days up until now

裕福じゃない暮らしそれでもいつだってそばには母の優しさ僕の描く絵を大好きだと言ってくれた人二人生きるために夢も捨て働いてそれでも訪れる別れそんなときに君に出会い恋に落ちた愛を知った

it wasn’t a prosperous life, but my mother’s happiness was always by my side there were people who said they loved my art i threw away my dreams and worked so we could live together even so separation arrived that’s when i met you i fell into a romance i came to know love

幸せだと思えたのにどうして大切なものばかりが消えてく消えてくこの世界とさよならしよう

even though i thought i was happy why is it that only the important things keep disappearing, disappearing i will say farewell to this world

会いに行くよ今すぐそこへ君がいるところまで愛してるごめんねそのとき君の声が聞こえたそうやって自分で全てを終わりにしてしまえばもう誰にも会えないんだよずっと満月の夜に

i’m going to meet you there soon at the place where you are i love you, i’m sorry at that time i heard your voice and then if i decide to end everything myself i can’t see anyone anymore on the night of a full moon

Lala…

終わらせることができず地面に落ちた僕に突然月が話しかけてきたそして不思議な力をくれた描いたものに命を分け与える力枯れかけた草木も息を吹き返す僕の残りの時間と引き換えに

i wasn’t able to make anything end and as i fell to back to earth suddenly the moon began speaking to me and granted me a mysterious power it was the power to give life to my drawings to breathe life back into withered plants in exchange for my remaining time

描いてくこの命を元に少しずつ分け与えてく生きる意味ができたんだそんなときあなたと出会った同じように悲しみの中で生きてる人自ら旅立とうとした僕を怒ってくれた人いつの間にか惹かれていった

i draw with my life as a model little by little i start to grant new life i had found the meaning of living and that was when i met you someone who was living in sadness just like me who got mad at me for trying to set out on my own before i knew it i became captivated by you

だけどあなたには愛する人がいるあなたを裏切ったひどい人それでもあなたが愛してしまう人そんな彼の命が今消えかけている

but there is a person you love a horrible person who betrayed you even so a person you will still love and right now his life is disappearing

泣きながら彼の名前を叫ぶあなたを見て決めた一日だけ残して僕の命全て捧げて描いたそして彼は目を覚ました

you called his name while weeping i looked at you and made a decision i only had one day left i sacrificed the rest of my life and painted and then he opened his eyes

嗚呼僕が起こした奇跡に涙流し喜ぶあなたにどうしても伝えたい僕の想いを最期に聞いてこうやって生きる喜びを与えてくれたあなたが本当に大好きでしたさよなら

ah, you rejoice while shedding tears at the miracles i’ve wrought at any cost i want to tell you listen to my feelings in my last moments the happiness of living this way is what you gave to me you whom i truly loved farewell

Lala…

そして一人あなたのこと母のこと君のこと想い目を瞑った長い長い旅の終わりやっとまた会えたね

and then i was alone you, my mother i thought of you and closed my eyes at the end of this long, long journey we finally met again

Thank you for always supporting me I’ll keep blooming so my words can reach you I was once alone in the dictionary, the words nowhere in sight Now, Mankai Company is like my family

Taking the first steps of the season Let’s take it one page at a time together And even if our hearts fall apart, the words will remain Now, it’d be a funny story, right?

Hundreds of stories are waiting For our strange kind of development It’s completely natural to stumble during a story Whether you’re inexperienced or clumsy Keep trying your best, after all

The show must go on!

Thanks to the beginning of the season Spring is good to connect and pass the baton Erase “giving up” from the dictionary Let’s follow our dreams And open the door

One by one let’s add more to my dictionary Even if “forever” is erased from the dictionary I’ll still cherish this moment in my life And continue to be with everyone

Thank you for always supporting me I’ll keep blooming so my words can reach you I was once alone in the dictionary, the words nowhere in sight This is the dream that everyone’s been after

This is the place where the season begins You gave me the miracle of spring Isn’t this a good place to strengthen the impact of words? I want to see my family, yes, the company to laugh

Let’s write more important words Straight from our hearts!

English:

Ah, it’s a good thing I forgot I didn’t want the memories to come back The cut off organs that absorb and digest Without feeling anything Where will you go, they ask Everyone already knows You and dad and the others Aren’t coming back So all I can do is search

I must be going through an avenue of memories Turning to ashes, the cherry blossoms that once danced now remain only within me This is what I get For destroying the stars that I couldn’t see

Dreaming that even the clouded sky that had started to clear up Will go back To how it was overnight, I will only search and search for you

Ah, it’s empty Just like the inside of a decaying film Ah, I wish you could have shown me hope At least once Before you died

What ever happened To the love that had gone unknown and unseen? I get nightmares every night But why? After all that warfare, I still think fondly Of our rotten future

Even if A tomorrow that we didn’t wish for came I hope it doesn’t end just yet Because of our footsteps that are the only things we’re sure of Picking up dreams, And bringing them to the vast world

Can someone please save us With a time machine? I still want to forget all of this endless ruin Once we wake up, we’ll still be living in hell

Ah, dear world Bring forth destruction upon us humans Who have gone beyond salvation

Make haste And scrape up what’s left of tomorrow And throw it to the skies right now Leaving only my emotions to die On the rotting surface of the earth

I’m sure everyone awaits For my arrival in the skies What should we talk about when we meet again? I’ll suppress these bursting emotions of mine and go to bed.

Girl Alchemist Egg--Tale of the Rose track 1, translation

As far as I know, nobody else seems to be translating J. A. Seazer’s latest Utena album, which came out in August, to English (please correct me if I’m wrong)... so the job falls to me.

This is track 1, 知恵の竈(アルデル)実験祈祷室, or “Aludel of Wisdom Experimental Prayer Room”. An aludel is a kind of pot used in alchemy; it goes in a furnace (this is significant).

EDIT: I accidentally left out the romaji for one verse and missed a reference in the title; the version with all corrections (at least for now) is here.

EDIT 2: I changed my translation of the title to “Wisdom’s Aludel Oratory-Laboratory”. See here for my explanation as to why that’s a better translation.

金より不純物を除きそれを純粋な形と成しそれをうまくなし遂げる者はかくて、賢者の石を作りえようそれは偉大な力の「石」であり「石」と呼ばれていて石ではない

To remove impurities from gold To shape that into a pure form The one who successfully accomplishes this, By this means, can create the philosopher’s stone It is a Stone of great virtue And is called a “Stone” and is not a stone.[i]

錬金術師たち

Renkinjutsushitachi

Ahh, eternal wisdom’s [ii] alchemy Ahh, eternal wisdom’s laboratory Ahh, eternal wisdom’s furnace theater, theater

夢ではなく現れるドラゴン世界創造の始めに波の上を漂っていた神の如し

Yume de wa naku arawareru doragon Sekai souzou no hajime ni Nami no ue wo tadayotteita kami no gotoshi

It was not a mere dream; it materialized, the dragon![iii] Like unto God, who in the beginning created, Hovering over the surface of the waters.[iv]

蒸留、昇華、煆焼、煮煎反射、溶解、下降、凝結

Jouryuu, shouka, kashou, shasen Kansha, youkai, kakou, gyouketsu

Distillation, sublimation, calcination, decoction, Reflection, dissolution, descent, coagulation[v].

すべて水のなか黒そのものよりさらに黒そしてルビーの燦然たるいろの耀きその間に発生するああ、祝福される緑万物芽吹かす緑

Subete mizu no naka Kuro sono mono yori Sarani kuro Soshite RUBII no sanzentaru iro no kagayaki Sono aida ni hasseisuru Aa, shukufukusareru midori Banbutsu mebukasu midori

Everything within water[vi], A blackness still more black Than blackness itself[vii], And, too, The ruby’s brilliantly-colored radiance,[viii] All the while: generation, Ahh, happy green, Which dost produce all things[ix]!

神の霊気の緑カバラの緑渦巻く宇宙秘術師よ緑のライオンを哲学者の火賢者の火鞴よ錬金炉アタノールの火を熾せ

Kami no reiki no midori KABALA no midori Uzumaku uchuu Hijutsushi yo midori no RAION wo Tetsugakusha no hi Kenja no hi Fuigo yo Renkin ro ATANOORU no hi wo okose Behold!

The green of God's mysterious presence, The green of the Kabbala[x], The spiraling cosmos, The Magus, the Green Lion[xi]. The fire of the philosophers, The fire of the sages![xii] The bellows! Light the fire of the alchemical furnace, the athanor.

見よ哲学の竈||実験室宇宙の竈||実験室散らかり放題の貧乏吹き屋の実験室

Miyo Tetsugaku no kama no jikkenshitsu Uchuu no kama no jikkenshitsu Chirakari houdai no Binbou fukiya no jikkenshitsu

The philosophical furnace--the laboratory! The cosmic furnace--the laboratory![xiii] Scattered unrestrainedly, A poor smelter’s laboratory

われら価値ある人間たらんがために価値を目指す錬金術師

Warera Kachiaru ningentaran ga tame ni Kachi o mezasu Renkinjutsushi, renkinjutsushi

For us To have value as humans To aim for value Alchemy, alchemy

それは一月十七日月曜日正午頃、私の家で、立会人はぺるネル一人だった。人類救済一三八二年の年である。私は水銀に投入を行い、それを約半ポンドの純銀、鉱山のものよりも良質の純銀に変化させた。その後、やはりぺるネル一人の立会いのもとに私の家で、同僚の水銀に赤い石を用いて同じことを行い、四月二五日夕方五時、本当にほぼ同量の純金に変成した。普通の金より確実に良質でより軟らかく、よりしなやかであった。これは真実である。私と同じく理解していたぺるネルの助けをて、私はこれを三回実現したのである。二コラ・ヴァロ��

Sore wa ichigatsu juunananichi getsuyoubi shougogoro, watashi no ie de, tachiainin wa PERUNERU hitoridatta. Jinrui kyuusai sen sanbyaku hachijuu ni nen no toshidearu. Watashi wa suigin ni tounyuu wo okonai, sore wo yaku han-pondo no jungin, kouzan no mono yori mo ryoushitsu no jungin ni henkasaseta.

The first time that I made projection was upon a Monday, the 17th of January, about noon, in my house, Pernelle only being present, in the year of the restoring of mankind, 1382. This was upon Mercury, whereof I turned half a pound, or thereabouts, into pure Silver, better than that of the Mine. And afterwards, following always my Book, from word to word, I made projection of the Red Stone upon the like quantity of Mercury, in the presence likewise of Pernelle only, in the same house, the five and twentieth day of April following, the same year, about five o'clock in the evening; which I transmuted truly into almost as much pure Gold, better assuredly than common Gold, more soft and more pliable. I may speak it with truth, have made it three times, with the help of Pernelle, who understood it as well as I. --Nicolas le Valois[xiv]

[i] The last two lines of this verse are from Les Cinq Livres or La Clef des Secrets, by Nicolas le Valois, a French alchemist rumored to be the deceased Nicolas Flamel, supposedly using an alias after attaining immortality through the Philosopher’s Stone. I don’t know of any English translation of this text, but the original French is online at https://alchimie.000webhostapp.com/cinq_livres_valois.html. It’s likely that the first lines are also from alchemical texts; I just haven’t been able to identify them

[ii] Eternal wisdom—a phrase from Heinrich Khunrath, used in the title of his book The Amphitheater of Eternal Wisdom. There is an English translation by Peter J. Forshaw, but I have not yet been able to find it; I have, however, contacted the translator inquiring how to obtain it.

[iii] Carl Jung, Psychology and Alchemy: “The dragon is probably the oldest pictoral symbol in alchemy of which we have documentary evidence. It appears as the Ouroboros, the tail-eater, in the Codex Marcianus, which dates from the tenth or eleventh century, together with the legend 'the One, the All'. Time and again the alchemists reiterate that the opus proceeds from the one and leads back to the one, that it is a sort of circle like a dragon biting its own tail. For this reason the opus was often called circulare (circular) or else rota (the wheel). Mercurius stands at the beginning and end of the work: he is the prima materia, the caput corvi, the nigredo; as dragon he devours himself and as dragon he dies, to rise again in the lapis. He is the play of colours in the cauda pavonis and the division into the four elements. He is the hermaphrodite that was in the beginning, that splits into the classical brother-sister duality and is reunited in the coniunctio, to appear once again at the end in the radiant form of the lumen novum, the stone. He is metallic yet liquid, matter yet spirit, cold yet fiery, poison and yet healing draught - a symbol uniting all the opposites.”

[iv] This is a clear reference to Genesis 1:1-2. “Like unto God” recalls the story of the Garden of Eden; Adam and Eve were forbidden to eat the fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil because it would make them like God. Alchemists were also seeking knowledge that would make them like God, although the authors quoted in this song emphasized that one could not attain it without God’s blessing.

[v] These are all names for different techniques in the chemical process. Most are still used in chemistry today (only the terms “reflection” and “descent” are no longer used, as far as I know).

[vi] Valois explains that “water” means something different in alchemy. Basically, this water is a truly universal solvent, capable of absorbing anything into itself. He uses an interesting metaphor for this: “It's this Maid Beïa, which has not yet been corrupted or lost its liberty, to marry infirm and ill-shaven bodies, as captives are, who can never leave their filthy prisons without the help of men. Thus preserving liberty with its integrity, we see in a philosophical manner this luminous star making infinite circulation turns, until it came in some reign.”

[vii] Putrefaction, the nigredo, the black stage in the alchemical process. The idea is that there must be sacrifice to facilitate new growth.

[viii] The philosopher’s stone is sometimes called the “celestial ruby.”

[ix] These two lines are from The Rosary of the Philosophers; however, I used the translation of the quote found in the translation of the Exposition, rather than the original text, although that can be found in English too: http://sociedadquimicamexico.org/rosarium.pdf. Here, it’s given as, “O blessed greenness, which engenders all things.”

[x] Many alchemists, both Jewish and non-Jewish, drew on the Kabballah (Jewish mystical texts), although how well they really understood it is questionable. I myself am not at all well-versed in this, but it seems that in the Kabballah, the color green represents healing and harmony.

[xi] The Green Lion typically represents the same thing as the dragon. E.g. The Glory of the World mentions “the Green Lion that imbibes so much of its own spirit.”

[xii] The author of The Glory of the World wrote of “indelible, living, or Divine fire, of that kind which God has placed in the Sun; and wherein God Himself burns as with Divine love for the consolation of all mankind... This is the fire of the Sages which they describe in such obscure terms, as to have been the indirect cause of beguiling many innocent persons to their ruin; so even that they have perished in poverty because they knew hot this fire of the Philosophers. It is the most precious fire that God has created in the earth, and has a thousand virtues -- nay, it is so precious that men have averred that the Divine Power itself works effectually in it. It has the purifying virtue of Purgatory, and everything is rendered better by it. It is not wonderful, therefore, that a fire should be able to fix and clarify Mercury, and to cleanse it from all grossness and impurity. The Sages call it the living fire, because God has endowed it with His own Divine, and vitalising power.”

[xiii] Different names for the athanor, a kind of furnace. The alchemists viewed their work as the creation of a microcosmos, a “petite universe” if you will. “Cosmic furnace” doesn’t seem to have been common in English, but one does find the French version, fourneau cosmique.

[xiv] This passage is adapted from Exposition of the Hieroglyphical Figures. By attributing it to Valois, Seazer continues in the tradition of claiming him as part of the legend of Flamel. We can infer from this passage and its attribution that the two voices we hear singing this song are meant to represent Nicholas and Per(e)nelle, Flamel’s wife, purported to have been an alchemist in her own right.

SHE’S - one - Lyrics

song (spotify) Japanese/Romaji/English lyrics under the cut

息をするように　躓く日々にエンドゲーム　腐っていたって雲の上から　希望は降らない期待さえもしなくなった僕に

伸ばしたその腕が導いてくれたんだ

ただ一つしかない道でただ一人の君に会えた運命でも　奇跡でもない僕らが掴んだ未来ただ一言に救われただ一日を生き抜いた美しくて愛おしい　この今がどんな絶望でも　受け止めよう君がいるから

いつも素直に　伝えられたらなんて　夢見ていたって君に言葉が　届く手前でゆっくりと落ちてしまうけど

焦がしたこの胸が気づかせてくれたんだ

ただ一つの過ちで頭を抱え俯いても元通りに　戻らないのに振り返ってしまうけどただ一言で目が覚め二度とない今を生き抜いた痛ましくて　誇れない過去さえも形を変えてゆくよ　いつの日か君がいるから

言い訳ばかり　羨む日々にエンドゲーム　何もないなんて言えやしないよ　僕には君が君には僕がいる

iki o suru you ni tsumazuku hibi ni endo geemu kusatte itatte kumo no ue kara kibou wa furanai kitai sae mo shinaku natta boku ni

nobashita sono ude ga michibiite kuretanda

tada hitotsu shika nai michi de tada hitori no kimi ni aeta unmei demo kiseki demo nai bokura ga tsukanda mirai tada hitokoto ni sukuware tada ichinichi o iki nuita utsukushikute itooshii kono ima ga donna zetsubou demo uketomeyou kimi ga iru kara

itsumo sunao ni tsutaeraretara nante yume miteita tte kimi ni kotoba ga todoku temae de yukkuri to ochite shimau kedo

kogashita kono mune ga kizukasete kuretanda

tada hitotsu no ayamachi de atama wo kakae utsumuite mo moto toori ni modoranai no ni furikaette shimau kedo tada hitokoto de me ga same nidoto nai ima wo iki nuita itamashikute hokorenai kako sae mo katachi o kaete yuku yo itsu no hi ka kimi ga iru kara

iiwake bakari urayamu hibi ni endo geemu nanimo nai nante ie ya shinai yo boku ni wa kimi ga kimi ni wa boku ga iru

As if taking a breath, the end game has rotted away during these lagging days Hope never falls onto me from the heavens, and I’ve lost any sense of expectation

Your outstretched arms showed me the way

On this singular path I had, I met your solitary self It wasn’t fate or a miracle The future we took hold of was saved in a single word I survived just one more day The present is so beautiful and precious No matter the despair, I can take it because you’re here with me

If I could always speak earnestly and tell you about things like dreams I had, my words would slowly fall short just before reaching you, but

You made me notice the burning in my chest

With a single mistake, I hang my head in frustration Even though I can’t go back to how things were, I just keep turning back I wake up with a single word I lived through a day that will never happen again Even if the past is painful or shameful, one day it’ll be different because I have you here

In these days full of jealousy and making excuses, you can’t say there is no end game Because I have you with me, and you have me
