ホタル、ホタル、二人の夢を見れるホタルの (Hotaru, hotaru, futari no yume wo mireru hotaru no) ホタル、ホタル、つねると夢が (hotaru hotaru, tsuneru to yume ga ) 覚めるホタル夜 (sameru hotaruyoru) My translation would be: "Firefly, firefly, we can dream of our firefly dream. Firefly, firefly, on firefly night we'll awake from the dream when we pinch" I'm always looking forward to your new songs, Kina! I can translate Japanese lyrics for you anytime ;) いつも素敵な歌声をありがとう！
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your gift of voice and your kindness. I first started listening to you sing almost 10 years ago now. A little while back one of your songs helped me come to terms with a late term miscarriage and I didn't know if I could come back from the heartbreak. But now almost 2 years later, I'm sitting here with my 5 week old son in my arms listening to your music as it helps put him to sleep. Truly amazing to come full circle and now share your soothing voice with my son. All blessings for your future Kina ❤🙏🌻
You sounded so beautiful, your voice is amazing like an angel. I wish I could sing like that but I still have a long way to go. I have been practicing to sing all my life for other songs I copy I never sang my own way before, keep singing never stop what your doing
Dear Kina, i have been struggling this month both emotionallyand mentally that i think i lost my grace. But just now as i was listening to this cover my subconscious mind said something i missed hearing: life is good. Thank you
You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that dreaming, you probably were my wife Hotaru Hotaru Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru no Hotaru Hotaru Tsuneru to yume ga Sameru hotaruyoru ’cause we worshipped in sin for fun Two melting candles against the sun Modern angels they broke our wings in the wind For what? Decorated by man and time Ornamental and quite devine Manifested in their commitment to Flay our minds You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that moment, you probably were my wife Hotaru Hotaru Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru yoru In the twilight they danced and played The fireflies they go light like cray In the dreaming we struck each other and prayed For pain You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that dreaming, you probably were my wife
Re: your message at the end trying to describe Kishi Bashi's magic... the kind of music that's happy but also tugs at your heartstrings. Reminds me of Studio Ghibli/Miyazaki's animated films. They're like fairy tales, fantasy stories with (usually) happy endings, but they're the ones that are also profound and move something inside you deeply. Beautiful cover! I'm just recently returning to Kishi Bashi's music and I don't know why I ever left 🥰
I love bilingual songs. I'm in a similar situation in that I studied Japanese for two years in college and have forgotten most of it at this point. I really need to relearn it--I could even open up the textbooks I have in a box somewhere...
lol, soso and song1234 the 2 shits from a pod back at it again. you've been doing this for years, leaving all these stupid comments on her videos all the whilst she's doing well for herself. you guys are the saddest losers.
I’ve been listening to him for years as a pick me up and it absolutely made my day to see you finally cover this . It’s my absolute favorite. It gives me hope for a love worthy of these lyrics. Thank you so much, so beautiful ❤️
kina i’ve been following you for so long now but i haven’t actually thanked you for always showing me pretty songs i haven’t heard of💖this is so lovely
Wow, that starting hyped my ;D This sounds so sweet and joyful x) Thanks for an amazingly beautiful cover ;D Please keep the hard work x) Love from Galicia, Spain
The song fits you so naturally. Had it on repeat all afternoon and evening after you released it. Didn't pay attention to anything else for the rest of the day. Still can't over the fact that you did a Japanese cover. Definitely better than the original. ❤️
I completely understand what you meant about: "the right kind of happy; heart strings; etc." as much of the music that I write fits your description. Unfortunately, I can't legally "share" as I sell My copywritten works. I guess I could say Library of Congress (hint, hint.) I hope I don't get in trouble for this, as I'm kind of the guy behind the curtain, lol. Regardless, I keep gravitating towards You & Your works. And, the more I explore, the more I love it. Shine on Kina, Shine on!!
Kishi Bashi!!The first song I heard was his I Am the Antichrist to You back when Meekakitty and Nanalew made an epic music video on it 😆 Bravo on this cover 👌👏
Kina, this is so so beautiful and magical. I love the japanese as well, and really connects with me as I am like you, a hapa and proud :) fireflies, can see the pair’s dreams, when you pinch the dreams fade, fireflies night
I am here because my pride. Who more? 😉
Ello Im here bc of My Pride
Same
yup
Correct
I’m also here because of MY PRIDE
I’m from My Pride! :)
Same 🤣
Me too!
I can’t be the only one that thought this was an actual Q&A
SAME!💖❤

Kishi Bashi is amazing! As was this cover :) Beautiful
OMG this is absolutely beautiful, especially the bit where you sang in Japanese * __ *
*Kina, your voice is amazing! And you so beautiful!!!*
Dear Kina, i have been struggling this month both emotionallyand mentally that i think i lost my grace. But just now as i was listening to this cover my subconscious mind said something i missed hearing: life is good. Thank you
You are the answer to my question
You are my accomplice in a crime
You are my wing woman and did I mention
We were together in another life?
In that dreaming, you probably were my wife
Hotaru Hotaru
Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru no
Hotaru Hotaru
Tsuneru to yume ga
Sameru hotaruyoru
’cause we worshipped in sin for fun
Two melting candles against the sun
Modern angels they broke our wings in the wind
For what?
Decorated by man and time
Ornamental and quite devine
Manifested in their commitment to
Flay our minds
You are the answer to my question
You are my accomplice in a crime
You are my wing woman and did I mention
We were together in another life?
In that moment, you probably were my wife
Hotaru Hotaru
Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru yoru
In the twilight they danced and played
The fireflies they go light like cray
In the dreaming we struck each other and prayed
For pain
You are the answer to my question
You are my accomplice in a crime
You are my wing woman and did I mention
We were together in another life?
In that dreaming, you probably were my wife
William Chuang thank you! Everytime I play this video I can sing along 💕
OMG I’ve been wanting for years. To hear you sing something in Japanese! Thanks Kina!

You have such a gorgeous voice Kina, this cover is awesome!!
Eu sem dúvidas adorei essa música
The song fits you so naturally. Had it on repeat all afternoon and evening after you released it. Didn't pay attention to anything else for the rest of the day. Still can't over the fact that you did a Japanese cover. Definitely better than the original. ❤️
The original had the Japanese lyrics, Kishi Bashi is a fluent Japanese speaker on the account of his family...
i dont know why ,your face and your voice is perfect combination gift kina :)
I completely understand what you meant about: "the right kind of happy; heart strings; etc." as much of the music that I write fits your description.
Unfortunately, I can't legally "share" as I sell My copywritten works.
I guess I could say Library of Congress (hint, hint.)
I hope I don't get in trouble for this, as I'm kind of the guy behind the curtain, lol.
Regardless, I keep gravitating towards You & Your works. And, the more I explore, the more I love it.
Shine on Kina, Shine on!!
I love this song so much 💛💛💛
I'm obsess with your voice 😍
Amazing my dear
Your voice suits this song more than the original artist. Awesome cover.
This is sooooooo beautiful**************!!!!
Lovely Kina ☺️ thank you for sharing
This video is so cozy 😄 You typically have very brightly lit videos, but this is nice too :)
Kishi Bashi!!The first song I heard was his I Am the Antichrist to You back when Meekakitty and Nanalew made an epic music video on it 😆
Bravo on this cover 👌👏
Very nice😍😍
The song and the video are both so-- beautiful~~ great feeling mood :)
