Could Someone Please Translate This?

[herbert]

I was just told by a nice people that nicer people here can help me understand what says in this picture. Thanks in advance

[Kristen]

Something tells me that this has been asked somewhere before, but I did a search and cannot find it anywhere...

At the end of the Clannad After Story is a song "Chiisana Tenohira", AKA, "The palm of a tiny hand". I've done google searches and stuff, and I just cannot find it. I can only find the romanji. It follows:

Spoiler for Romanji:

tooku de tooku de yureteru inaho no umi
ho wo age ho wo age mezashita omoide he to
bokura wa kyou made no kanashii koto zenbu oboeteru ka,
wasureta ka
chiisana te ni mo itsukara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa
nureta budou no shita naiteta hi kara aruita
chiisana te de mo hanarete mo bokura wa kono michi yukunda
itsuka kuru hi wa ichiban no omoide wo shimatte
kisetsu wa utsuri mou tsumetai kaze ga
tsutsumarete nemure ano haru no uta no naka de
chiisana te ni mo itsukara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa
nureta hoo ni wa dore dake no egao ga utsutta
chiisana te de mo hanarete mo bokura wa kono michi yukunda
soshite kuru hi wa bokura mo omoide wo shimatta
chiisana te ni mo itsu no hi ka bokura oikoshite yukunda
yagate kuru hi wa atarashii kisetsu wo hiraita

Would anybody be able/willing to give me a translations for that?

And, thanks in advance if you are.

This is a request from one of my MSN buddies. Who here can translate the 7 Gifts of the Holy Spirit into Japanese equivalents?

Well then...
But note that I'm not really good at English and I don't even know what the picture actually is so my translation may be off

She is HUMAN!

My, how rude, this is our first meet you know

I metaphrased it because I do not know the quoted work.

I guess now I can see the reason why you haven't translated it with your fellows when you are a fansubber - hell, this song is horribly ambiguous and confusing! And I mean it!
The lyrics lack just too many needed elements to compose reasonable sentenses, like verbs and subjects, and even tenses are confusing!
I might as well have given it up, the song just doesn't translate well into English
(or doesn't really make sense in the first place) but here's my try.

Spoiler for space:

遠くで遠くで揺れてる稲穂の海
off in the distance there are sea of rice plants swaying
帆を上げ帆を上げ目指した思い出へと
eventually raising the sail we aimed at our memories
僕らは今日までの悲しいこと全部覚えてるか、忘れたか
do we remember all the sad things to date or have we forgotten them

小さな手にもいつからか僕ら追い越してく強さ
from someday even in a tiny hand there's the strength to go over us
熟れた葡萄の下泣いてた日から歩いた
we've walked from the day we cried under the ripe grapes
小さな手でも離れても僕らはこの道ゆくんだ
even just with tiny hands or even with the distance we are going this way
いつかくる日は　一番の思い出を仕舞って
the someday in the future cherished the best memories

季節は移り　　もう冷たい風が
seasons have passed and the wind is cold already
包まれて眠れ　　あの春の歌の中で
be surrounded and sleep in that song of spring

小さな手にもいつからか僕ら追い越してく強さ
from someday even in a tiny hand there's the strength to go over us
濡れた頬にはどれだけの笑顔が映った
how many smiles have our wet cheeks reflected
小さな手でも離れても僕らはこの道ゆくんだ
even just with tiny hands or even with the distance we are going this way
そしてくる日は　僕らも思い出を仕舞った
and the coming day we too cherish our memories

小さな手でもいつの日か僕ら追い越してゆくんだ
someday even the tiny hands are to go over us
やがてくる日は　新しい季節を開いた
and the day soon coming opened up a new season

EDIT: Ooh, I reviewed the translation and have found some apparent errors. Slightly better now.

RE-EDIT: Or should I say; isn't there any one to correct and improve it? This work needs more than just my skills, most obviously.

Can someone give more details on the idiom
"nan no mae bure mo naku" (何の前触れもなく)

I gather the saying means something among the lines of "without warning", does anyone know about its origin?

Oh, I'm so sorry! I forgot about requestion this. Thank you so much!

I could give it a shot in editing, but that'd just make it sound more English, not more accurate.

"mae bure" literally means beforehand-contact; omen, with which you can predict something, no matter whether it is a natural phenomenon or an action made by a person. E.g., if your wife behaves coldly to you, it shall be the mae bure of the divorce crisis; if it is cold and moist today it shall be the mae bure of tomorrow's snow.

"nan no X mo naku" means without any kind of X. So you can interprete the total idiom as "without any kind of foretelling material".

I gave it a shot at editing. Since you are the translator, you would know best if I was too liberal with something or not. So, here we go...

In the distant sea the rice plants are swaying.
Raising a Sail, steered by our memories
Can we remember all the sad things that have happed?

Someday, even in the palm of a tiny hand there will be strength for us
We have walked together from the day we first cried
We will continue going this way, with the strength from this tiny hand
Until that day in the future we will cherish with our memories

The seasons have passed and the wind is cold already
But be surrounded and sleep in that song of spring

Someday, even in the palm of a tiny hand there will be strength for us
How many smiles have shown on our cheeks?
We will continue going this way, with the strength from this tiny hand
And we will cherish our memories with the coming day

Some day the palm of a tiny hand will go over us
And that soon to come day will open the new season

[darksider]

Thank you very much for your work!

Well, in your edit some parts are definitely better than mine, yet on some parts I feel your edit is somewhat excessive (for instance, "sour grapes" reference on the 5th line - though I understand if you want to make comprehensive subtitles you have to radically facet words sometimes) and on some others I'm ambiguous which one is better.

If you're interested, will we discuss this further using PM maybe?

Yeah, that's fine. It's just the usual transitions between a translator and an editor. At least when I'm working on fansubbing, I know that the editors tend to cut out a lot of things that are important for the sake of Englishness, and it needs to be in close working with the translator so that nothing too much is really cut out.

PM's will work fine. I hadn't thought about subbing this, but I guess with an appropriate timer/K-timer it could be done.

Hello
I'm from Ukraine(Russian)
me need your's help in translation text on Jap

Original (rus)

Spoiler for text:

1-й куплет:
Сегодня ты снова проснулся с мыслью о том:
- Что уже все слишком поздно.
Ты видишь небо плачет, ты слышишь его,
Пьешь с неба слезы.
Снова уходить, а потом возвращаться,
Искать и найти и снова прощаться.

Припев:
Один реальный вздох а потом тишина,
Никогда-никогда не смотреть назад,
Ничего не изменит твоя глупая месть.
Один реальный шаг а потом пустота,
Тебе выбирать: будет Рай или Ад,
Жизнь это не ошибка, это смертельная болезнь.

2-й куплет:
Сегодня ты снова проснулась с мыслью о том:
- Что все слишком плохо.
Винишь себя в том что дышишь еще,
Боже как это долго.
Снова уходить, а потом возвращаться,
Искать и найти и снова прощаться.

Припев тот же
...
Ничего не исправит твоя глупая месть
...

3-й куплет:
Сердце комок злобы и грусти,
Если не удержит значит отпустит,
То, что как слезы бежит и уходит по венам.
Как долго..как долго..как долго..лишь шаг.

English ver

1-st
Today you again woke up with an idea about that:
- That already all too late
You see sky cries, you hear him,
You drink tears from sky.
Again to leave, and then return,
Search and find and again say goodbye.

chorus
One real sigh and then quiet,
Never-never to look back,
Nothing will be changed by your foolish revenge.
One real step and then emptiness,
You will: choose Paradise or Hell
Life it's a not error, it is mortal illness.

2-nd
Today you again woke up with an idea about that:
- That all too badly.
You blame itself in that breathe yet,
Goodness as it is long.
Again to leave, and then return,
Search and find and again say goodbye.

chorus
...
Nothing will be corrected by your foolish revenge.
...

3-rd
A heart is a lump of spite and sadness,
If will not retain means will release,
That as tears hurries and leaves on veins.
As long..as long..as long..only step.

今朝 お前 改めて 覚ます 一緒に 意見 付て
