En Route on the Journey
Vocals: Kiyoura Natsumi
Lyrics: Komine Koko
Composition: Kira Tomohiko
Arrangement: Kira Tomohiko
Within the journey
Where I grew lost all alone
Only my heart wandered and stood still
But now I can
Walk very far
That’s right, after I met you
On this road
Unknown songs
That travelers sing-
They sound familiar to me
If I’m just with you
If the world that I dreamed of
Exists somewhere
Then shall we go search for it?
To the other side of the wind
Let’s go see the end of the
Freezing daybreaks
Parched middays
And shivering dark nights
Your eyes
Know of loneliness
Because they’re dazzling
And reflect that color
I fly high to the sky
And become the crescent moon
The mint-colored stars are surely
The fragments of tears
The harbor of the eastern country, the western seaside
In the dark forest, the southern city, a golden tower
The northern hill, the same moon that swayed in the water
If it’s okay for me to hold
Your outstretched hand
Then where shall we go?
Together with you
We can go anywhere
Let’s go embrace
The commotion and aroma
Of the world still unseen

Tada hitori
Mayoikomu tabi no naka de
Kokoro dake samayotte tachitsukushita
Demo ima wa tooku made
Arukidaseru
Sou kimi to kono michi de
Deatte kara
Tabibito-tachi ga utau
Mishiranu uta mo
Natsukashiku kikoete kuru yo
Tada kimi to iru to
Yumemita sekai ga
Dokoka ni aru nara
Sagashi ni yukou ka
Kaze no mukou e
Itetsuku yoake no
Kawaita mahiru no
Furueru yamiyo no
Hate o mi ni yukou
Sabishisa o shitte iru
Kimi no hitomi
Mabataite sono iro o
Utsusu kara
Takaku sora made tonde
Mikkazuki ni naru
Hakka-iro no hoshi wa kitto
Namida no kakera
Higashi no kuni no minato nishi no umibe
Kurai mori de minami no machi kin no tou
Kita no oka mizu ni yureteta onaji tsuki ga
Sashidasu sono te o
Tsunaide ii nara
Doko made yukou ka
Kimi to futari de
Doko e mo yukeru yo
Mada minu sekai no
Zawameki kaori o
Dakishime ni yukou

ただひとり
迷い込む旅の中で
心だけ彷徨って立ち尽くした
でも今は 遠くまで
歩き出せる
そう君と この道で
出合ってから
旅人たちが歌う
見知らぬ歌も
懐かしく聴こえてくるよ
ただ君といると
夢見た世界が
どこかに あるなら
探しに 行こうか
風のむこうへ
凍てつく夜明けの
渇いた真昼の
ふるえる闇夜の
果てを見に行こう
寂しさを知っている
君の瞳
まばたいて その色を
映すから
高く空まで飛んで
三日月になる
ハッカ色の星はきっと
涙のかけら
東の国の港 西の海辺
暗い森で 南の街 金の塔
北の丘 水に揺れてた同じ月が
差し出すその手を
つないでいいなら
どこまで行こうか
君と二人で
どこへも行けるよ
まだ見ぬ世界の
ざわめき 香りを
抱きしめに行こう

It’s a great song, thanks for the translation. Suits Spice and Wolf very well, too.
One comment, though. I’m no great shakes at Japanese, but I think the second stanza,
An unfamiliar song
That travelers sing-
I hear it nostalgically
If I’m just with you
translates better as
The songs that all travelers sing
Even if I don’t recognize them
They sound so familiar
If I’m just with you
It’s kinda like even though the songs are strange, but the strangeness itself brings back memories.
@ Iyr:
Good point. I was translating a little too literally… I’ve edited it. Thanks.
great song, thanks for the tl, now i can make my own karas
yeah its was really great sugoi des ne^^

Pingback: Review: Spice and Wolf II « escapistolero
the first time i watched spice and wolf, i found i already knew the opening theme. i don’t know why i knew it. has this song been used for anything else??? or was it made specifically for the anime…
I honestly have no idea, but a vast majority of anime openings and endings are taken from popular, or even unpopular japanese music, so if you listen to alot of general japanese music, you may have heard this song from a band.
my favorite anime! favorite opening as well!!

Love the anime, and love the song. The lyrics are so powerful and match the idea of the anime perfectly. Kiyoura Natsumi’s voice is so beautiful.
Such a great song
