Except "michi" is road, so I think it's more like "This road/path is cruel, but when you smile.." And "kazoekirenai" is something like "countless". Or so says my dictionary. Sorry, hope you don't mind me throwing in my two cents. ^^;; Do keep going.

Thank you! I was stuck in my thinking on "ijiwaruna michi," and couldn't think of what else it could mean.  That is excellent.  "Kazoekiremasu" wasn't in my dictionary all together ( compound verb?) and seperately it was like "count" and "disconnect" which didn't make any sense....like me right now...

My biggest issue with the translation was, as you said, it seems a little too revealing.  It sounds more like a fanfic than a Clamp creation.  Anyone else with some skill in Japanese (or a really big dictionary)  feel free to hack away at this thing.  More than anything else, I just want to know the true meaning of the song!

me and a friend were attempting to translate Kizuna. we got as far as the first word...
we think it means
'Don't forget' or 'I won't forget'... something about not forgetting

lol... and thats how far we got! and we don't even know if its right! ^^;

good luck everyone else trying to translate it! ^__^

Added second chorus, will update first post with the whole song.

First line of Kizuna I understand without a dictionary: "Don't forget, I'll protect your smile."   
Tehe.  It's like my grammar teacher from Korea said, "When you learn a language through soap operas, you pick up the weirdest phrases.  When I first learned English, I couldn't order a coke, but I could say 'Don't take my baby!'"   :tongue:

P.S. The title is something like "Connection" or "Bond."

Here is the next verse of Smile.  I went with a literal translation, as I am having trouble putting some of it together to make sense.

mune no naka de sodateta  takusan no kagayaki ha
   *Within my chest, growing  many splendors
asai yume ni  mou  okosarete karechatta ne
   *Another dream , wake, wither
todokanai koe
   *doesn't reach, voice
demo  utaidasu kimi   
   *but still sing you

kanashimi kara  chikara wo atsumete
   *Because I'm feeling sad, please summon your power
arukidasou  mada minu basho he
   *start to walk towards that place
hikari no mukou he
   *light _no_foreign land towards

Feel free to make sense of it!

Kyaa... I couldn't figure out if it was 'I won't foret' 'don't forget' 'unforgetable'... :sweatdrop: Thanks. ^_^

Alright! This has made me determined to decode the meaning of both songs :keke:...I'll try to gather up my courage and ask the japanese girls in my school to translate it for us if that's ok :sweatdrop: :okay:...This is the least I can do while we wait for the last drama CD... Um... first I'll need the whole romanized or kanji of smile... I know that kizuna is somewhere here...
Fate is a funny thing, it can always surprise you somehow. Just when you thought everything in your world is fantastic and wonderful. It would turn your world into a nightmare the next morning you woke up. Just when you thought you world was ending, turning upside down. Fate will put someone special into your life and guide you through the darkness when you were lost. Cheer you up when you are in despair. - from the fafiction "A Crazy thing called Love." by Aisaki Sumi

Wow, you have Japanese girls at your school?  And I was amazed that we have a British family where I live....(Points toward location in sidebar).

I think this line goes along with the 2nd line: In my dreams, Hey, hold me, I'm broken

And so that line would be like:
From this shallow dream, Please wake me, it's dying

Yeah, I was trying to look at it earlier today. ^^;; I think you got that second line right. And those are probably my favorite two lines.

Whose voice?? I don't get that part. <__<

The feeling I got from those two lines about the voice was something like,

Even though my voice doesn't reach, I still sing to you. 
or to go with what you just said about waking from a dream, maybe *kimi*'s voice doesn't reach him(Fai) in his dream, so he is still singing out for the help mentioned in the second chorus. Hmmm, muzukashii!

Yeah, I love that second line in the song.  I had no idea of the lyrics when I sat down to translate, and when I came up with that... :inlove:  It's just so Fai, if he would be honest about it; it reminds me a little of what he told Kuro in Clover, about waiting for someone to take him away.  I think that may be the only time he's been really honest in the whole series. 
Ah, KuroxFai-ness... I digress...

No one has actually come out and said it, but do we all agree that "kimi" is ... you know, it is difficult to say, isn't it?  Ok, personally, I think "kimi" is 
Show content
Kurogane
.  But, maybe it is possible that "kimi" can just mean "someone." I thought it had to have a reference, but maybe not.  What do you guys think?  And please, continue to edit the lyrics.  I updated my post a few pages back with the whole song, so you take a look at that too.

Yeah I guess we all agree that 'kimi' is...you know who... (haha..not Voldemort from Harry Potter!).. Unless of course someone is against the pairing (I don't usually support yaoi since I'm uncomfortable with it but I got used to it so in certain circumstances I support the pairing besides CLAMP seems like obsessed with it...hehehe....)

wow! thanks for the translation. i haven't gotten round to translating the songs coz i haven't been bothered to. =P but still! good work peoples!
I wonder what kind of fate awaits me?
I don't want to regret being born
There is courage inside my sadness
I believe I can grasp that radiance
The tears of the blue sky are pouring down
One day they'll change into smiles

On an ephemeral evening, I tell a story to my friend.

Reflected behind my closed eyelids is a sweet field. Dauntless, I embrace you lovingly. I am together with you.

Out of love, I forge a pact with you. Like a breath, the wind will envelop you. You and I will be together wherever we go.

The heart of red will be enfolded in wind and forge the contract.
