Nagao Kei - 極夜 (Kyokuya) | Lyrics Translation

Nagao Kei - Polar Night

I’m getting used to the sight of this long night But even lost in an endless dream On my own, I could still dance So let my eyes that are still bright remain that way, will you?

The mirage brushed my cheeks I waited for the revolution before daybreak The sun going in reverse Have a nice dream, no I couldn’t say it, it won’t mend

If it were to come true no matter what, surely I won’t long for it I won’t suffer over it But will I be happy that way Endlessly Dreaming a dream

I’m getting used to the sight of this long night But even lost in an endless dream On my own, I could still dance So let my eyes that are still bright remain that way I gently kiss the mic

The morning glow reflected my dream The pathetic me dancing alone in the midst of the fog And the sneering crowd There’s no way I could live by just being kind, not a chance

If it were to come true no matter what, surely I won’t long for it I won’t suffer over it But will I be happy that way Endlessly Dreaming a dream

I’m getting used to the sight of this long night But even lost in an endless dream On my own, I could still dance So let my eyes that are still bright remain that way, will you?

The sight of this long night is clearing up The morning glow melts away the moon and I wake up alone Let my eyes that are still bright remain that way I pour my heart out into the mic

TL notes below

The songs from the Union single collection are a result of collaboration with a platform called Showbiz, in which each of the VΔLZ member provided something as a base for their individual song, and Showbiz users could submit the songs they made based on that. iirc, Nagao provided the general concept/theme for his, and this is the chosen song.

I think this suits him well, I like the song! And despite only being released in September, it somehow became one of the top songs in my Spotify Wrapped?!

Btw, the title 極夜 (Kyokuya - Polar Night) is in reference to phenomenon in which the sun doesn't rise for more than 24 hours (happens around north and south poles). I think it's a fitting title for this lyrics.

Anyway, fun fact! The lyrics include some kanji which are referring to Nagao and VΔLZ. Like in the chorus 長い夜の景色に慣れて , the kanji 長 and 景 in Nagao's name are there.

Also for the last chorus, the lyrics are slightly different and this time contain the kanji in Kaida's (晴) and Genzuki's (月) names. I think it's quite neat!

長い夜の景色が晴れて 月溶ける朝焼け独り目が覚めて

I thought of translating this when it was released, posted the draft of the chorus, went on to procrastinate for months, and then translated almost all of it in the middle of the night in a few hours in a sudden burst of motivation lol. I wish next year (this year) I'm a bit more consistent!
