AKB48 “UZA” – Lyrics Translation

Today’s translation is an AKB48 song. It is translated more literally rather than poetically for understanding, and some of the subjects remain vague. I hope it still manages to be readable!

Enjoy!

Uza…

君は君で愛せばいい
相手のことは考えなくていい
思うがままに愛せばいい
運がよければ愛し合えるかも

kimi wa kimi de aiseba ii
aite no koto wa kangaenakute ii
omou ga mama ni aiseba ii
un ga yokereba aishiaeru kamo…

It’s okay to love yourself
It’s okay if you don’t think of your partner
It’s okay if you  love to your heart’s content
It seems only with good luck we’ll love each other

傷ついても　傷つけても
本気であればあるほど　気づかないんだ
No way

kizutsuite mo kizutsukete mo
honki de areba aru hodo kidzukanainda
No way

Even if it hurts me, even if I hurt
The more serious it is, the less I notice it
No way

最初にキスをしよう　理屈より先に
感情　ぶつけろよ　
Do it!
最初にキスをしよう　首に抱きついて
そう　挨拶代わりに

saisho ni KISU wo shiyou rikutsu yori saki ni
kanjou butsukero yo!
Do it!
saisho ni KISU wo shiyou kubi ni dakitsuite
sou aisatsu kawari ni…

Let’s have our first kiss before logic kicks in
Vent our feelings
Do it!
Let’s have our first kiss, grab me by the neck
Yes, rather than a greeting

愛の意味とかわかっているのか？
やさしさだけじゃ惹かれはしないだろう
愛の力をわかっているのか？
見つめ合ったら　すべて奪うもの

ai no imi to ka wakatte iru no ka?
yasashisa dake ja hikare wa shinai darou
ai no chikara wo wakatte iru no ka?
mitsumeattara subete ubau mono

Do you understand the meaning of love?
It’s not just being nice and charming
Do you understand the power of love?
Everything will be taken away if our eyes lock

彼女なんて　関係ないよ
モラルを思い出す度　気　失うんだ
Black out

kanojo nante kankeinai yo
Moraru wo omoidasu tabi ki ushinaunda
Black out

It has nothing to do with having a girlfriend
I lose consciousness whenever I remember my morals
Black out

最後に夢を見よう　かけひきより先に
プライド　捨てちまえよ！　
Do it!
最後に夢を見よう　どんな告白だって
そう　答えはいらないんだ

saigo ni yume wo miyou kakehiki yori saki ni
Pride　sutechimae yo!
Do it!
saigo ni yume wo miyou donna kokuhaku datte
sou kotae wa iranainda

Let’s live the last dream, without agreement
Cast away all your pride!
Do it!
Let’s live the last dream, regardless of what sort of confession you make
Yes, I don’t need an answer
