Tsundere Lyric Translation

As usual, feedback welcomed. I think I messed up the grammar a bit in order to keep up with the song’s pace.

When I translated this, I couldn’t help but feel that Aki-P REALLY understands girls heart, to the extent that it’s scary. Is this why many Japanese girls get into AKB easily?
+1 for him.

Also, after thinking for about a day I’ve found that it’s impossible to translate “tsundere” into one word or phrase in English. Tsundere is just… Tsundere. A part in Akihabara moe culture that we all love and enjoy. Too complex to be put in a mere phrase. Please understand m(_ _)m.

From wikipedia : “Tsundere (ツンデレ) is a Japanese concept of a character archetype which describes a person with a conceited, irritable, and/or violent personality that suddenly becomes modest and loving when triggered by some sort of cause (such as being alone with someone).”
“Tsundere is a portmanteau of the two words tsuntsun (ツンツン), and deredere (デレデレ). Tsuntsun is defined as “aloof, morose, pointed”, and deredere is defined as “exhausted, lovestruck”.”

But I think a better description is “sharp and sarcastic at the outside, but fawning and lovestruck inside”. As simple as that. I still can transcribe “tsun” and “dere”, but it’s impossible for tsundere.
Long live tsundere! MOE!

Lyric by Akimoto Yasushi

When a love just ended
It becomes a seed
Then blooming as a flower

If you bend down like that
The sunlight won’t be able to touch you
If you stand on your tiptoes
You’ll be able to look up into the sky!
It’s just a little of tears
Lift up the watering can.
Where ever the heart is,
Eventually the seed will sprout.

“Isn’t it a luck to be able to meet
Such a nice person?”
“We can meet anytime inside the memory…”
“How about the law that a first love will be
fruitless?”

Let’s live easily.

Girls are eternally
Seeing dreams.
AH- You are waiting for
Someone to be there.
When a love just ended
It becomes a seed
Then blooming as a flower.

Something that you forgot to finish
Shouldn’t be forgotten.
If now you’re in the corner of sadness
Isn’t there still a sunny place?
Also those days’ throbbing,
Those hazy feelings,
Those little repentances,
Continue to the road to the future.

“If a farewell exist,
An encounter also exist, isn’t it?”
“There was yesterday, there is today,
Then there will be tomorrow…”
“This love is not a useless thing.”

Show me your smile.

When a girl fall in love
She’ll close her eyes.
AH- You haven’t seen
Seasons that will come again.
The time will always be
Your ally.
Softly, open that door.

Girls are eternally
Seeing dreams.
AH- You are waiting for
Someone to be there.
When a love just ended
It becomes a seed
Then blooming as a flower.

When a girl fall in love
She’ll close her eyes.
AH- You haven’t seen
Seasons that will come again.
When a love just ended
It becomes a seed
Then blooming as a flower.
