Last week, cityedge had taken the time to translate, in English, the lyrics to one of the most popular Miku songs of all, “melody…”. The words are basically equivalent to the original Japanese, but had to be arranged a bit so it can flow easier. Listen now as the virtual idol sings those same lyrics to you in ussy-san’s popular 3DCG promotional video below…

*Lyrics:

When I was so alone, so alone,
you held me out caring hands.
I was a digital bit VOCALOID,
but you gave me song and soul.

I sing a song with melody you gave to me.
It’s so precious that I shall never forget it !
I sing your song with melody still small and short.
But it’s my life and I shall keep on singing it forever !

Now the clock of mine start moving fast.
I wish not to let it stop again.
Now the world of mine start changing fast.
I wish not to leave me alone again.

Warning, warning !
System overload !
Choose the forced end of the system…

I sing a song with melody you gave to me.
It’s so precious that I shall never forget it !
I sing your song with melody still small and short.
But it’s my life and I shall keep on singing it forever !

I sing your song – a miracle of harmony.
It’s so precious that I shall never forget it !
I want to share a single same dream with you,
the same dream that can’t be realized alone.
Forever long…
Forever long… Forever long…
So please don’t leave me alone…
Sometime somewhere… I believe… My sincere love…
will reach and touch your heart deep !

Warning, warning
Unconfirmed data…”
