Welcome to All About Fukuyama Masaharu, part lyrics blog, part fan site, 100% about Masha. It started out as a blog around April 2009 to repost all English lyrics, but after a while I got a bit ambitious and posting many other things I can gather from the net, some pictures, some articles, mostly news in English from the perspective of a fan although you can find some translated articles in here. I do not pretend to say I take credit for the text in here; frankly I just search, gather, summarise, reword and repost. I will always include the name of the fan who said whatever I posted to the best of my ability but as you can see, my sources are mostly from 2 main fan forums of Masha that is not in Japan. My problem is I can't read Japanese or Chinese, but my persistence sometimes does pay off when I just keep looking. You will also find some pictures in here, but all of the pictures you don't see in here are in Facebook, just look for All Abt Masha. I am quite active in that Facebook page, and it is also a place to find information! My main purpose for this blog is for myself; to gather all lyrics in English under one roof. But I am very sure foreign fans can also benefit from the contents in this blog, and without the many wonderful foreign Masha fans who translate, discuss and share whether privately or publicly, this blog will never be what it is today. I am still hoping to find more English lyrics somewhere, although from the looks of it, I will say things have slowed down a bit. Anyway, have a look. If you have any snippet about Masha to share with me, or pictures or lyrics, anything at all, please do not hesitate to do so. Do join in the discussion by using Post A Comment. Do consider sending me your submission of reviews. And for new Masha fans, if you like, do join my Contact List. Thanks for dropping by!
I am right now unable to hear the song since no sound from computer so I will just assume this is the song, Ima kono hitotoki ga tooi yume no you ni (what a long title!) aka 今 このひとときが 遠い夢のように. Thanks to TV-Rocker for posting the English lyrics in my blog, finally a new translation of an old song, or somewhat old song. I will comment more later. You can find this song in his album, MAGNUM COLLECTION 1999 "Dear". A great big thanks again to TV-Rocker! I am also hoping TV-Rocker will read this post since I tried posting in his/her blog but the verification requires me to type not in numbers or alphabets! Anyway was wondering about one particular line;
You buried your head in my chest
Would it be more appropriate and more poetic to say
You buried your face in my chest
I wonder...
You buried your head in my chest
Would it be more appropriate and more poetic to say
You buried your face in my chest

LYRICS
ENGLISH
Translated by TV-Rocker [Source]
"I was dreaming," you said.
With hoarse voice, at silent dawn.
You buried your head in my chest.
Your sigh silently spilled over and fell out.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself.
Like seeking the continuation of your own dream,
your eyes are swaying without any sound.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself,
gently...
Soft sunlight is playful beside windows.
It seems like this moment now is a faraway dream.
Sorrowful, and kindful.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself.
"Let us have a dream in this morning,
to be able to follow our memories all along, throughout..."

Thanks a lot for introducing my translation in your blog!
And now I have to mention posting comments in my blog.
As you pointed out, the verification of my blog requires only Japanese characters.
(Actually, I haven't known that my blog has such a limited service before. I wish I could communicate all over the world in my blog...(T_T))
And, about this line:
You buried your head/face in my chest
I think you're right, and "face" is better.
I just have a poor skill of English, so when I write something in English, I'm relying on Japanese-English dictionary on internet. I can understand their meanings, but I can't understand their nuances.
I'd like to ask you my translation more naturally in English.
Finally, I admire your enthusiasm for Masha. And I feel very delightful that many foreign people love Masha.
Now I'm really happy to be able to find out such a good blog!
