\"Hanbun<\/p>\n

This song came up in my playlist shuffle today and I suddenly felt like translating<\/a> it. Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora<\/strong> is a story of love and hope about a girl who suffers from a terminal illness. The lyrics of the OP song to the OVA do a good job of conveying the bittersweet feel of the story.<\/p>\n

Blue Happiness<\/strong>
\nVocal: nobuko<\/p>\n

The pale street, my swaying shadow,
\nI walk slowly, not knowing my destination.
\nMy feelings can’t reach yours.<\/p>\n

The things reflected in the depths of your eyes,
\nI started running in order to catch up to them.
\nI grip your outstretched hand without letting go.<\/p>\n

On this night, the half moon shines upon us.
\nI shake off the flow of time chasing after us.
\nThough we are both half incomplete, we should be able to draw our future.<\/p>\n

Your hair sways under the blue sky.
\nIn order to mend your unsewn heart,
\nLet’s realize our feelings.<\/p>\n

I wonder what the next page holds as I turn it.
\nYou threw me just a hint of a smile.
\nI keep rereading this swirl of overflowing words.<\/p>\n

On this night, the half moon shines upon tomorrow.
\nI kick about the darkness that stretches into the distance.
\nUnder the half moon, we start to walk without stopping. Lalala…<\/p>\n

On this night, the half moon shines upon us.
\nI shake off the flow of time chasing after us.
\nThough we are both half incomplete, we should be able to draw our future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
