I’m an Egg Pancake; Stay Away From Me (我是一個蛋餅，離我遠一點)

Music & Lyrics: NiceChord (好和弦)
Vocal: AiKO (艾可)

---

我是一個蛋餅
I’m an egg pancake
躺在熱油鍋裡
lying in a hot frying pan
蔥花火腿玉米
with green onions, ham, and corn.
不要把我吵醒
Don’t wake me up.
舒服 舒服 舒服 真舒服
It’s comfy, comfy, comfy, super comfy.

老闆把我捲起
The boss rolls me up
放我到盤子裡
and puts me on a plate.
現在要到哪去
Where are we going now?
氣氛有點詭異
The vibe is a bit weird.
不要 不要 我不要 我不要
No, no, I don’t want to, I don’t want to!

前面這個人類
This human in front of me
該不會是打算要把我吃掉吧
couldn’t possibly have decided they’re going to eat me, right?!
你想做什麼
What are you doing?!
不要把黏稠液體擠到我身上
Stop squeezing sticky, thick liquid on me!
不要用筷子碰我
Don’t touch me with your chopsticks!
上面都是口臭食物殘渣的味道
Your disgusting food breath is all over it!
我已經警告你了
I already warned you!
你再一直過來我就要尖叫了喔
If you keep approaching, then I’m definitely going to scream!
走開 趕快給我走開
Go away! Hurry and get away from me!

啊 啊 救命啊 趕快放我下來
Ah, ah, save me! Hurry and put me down!
你這個可怕的人類 吃東西之前你有洗手了嗎
Hey, you scary human, did you wash your hands before eating?!
啊 救命啊 這裡有個變態
Ah, save me! There’s a pervert over here!
看我用力翻滾 把醬油膏都噴到你臉上
Watch me roll with all my might and spray all my soy sauce paste on your face!
啊 救命啊 趕快放我下來
Ah, save me! Hurry and put me down!
吃蛋餅配大冰奶 你是等一下很想拉肚子嗎
You’re eating an egg pancake with a big glass of cold milk?! You’re just asking for diarrhea later!
啊 救命啊 這裡有個變態
Ah, save me! There’s a pervert over here!
看我使用脫逃術 把餡料掉到桌子上
Watch me use my escape artist techniques and drop all my fillings onto the table!

我是一片蛋餅
I’m a piece of an egg pancake.
離我遠一點
Stay away from me.

在以前
In the past,
我只能以歌聲交換在網路世界存留的機會
my only opportunities to exist were based on the exchange of songs in the digital world.
然而現在
But now,
既然我找到一個我自己滿意的 而且能自給自足的地方
since I’ve found a place that satisfies me and lets me be self-sufficient,
那我又何必繼續爭取被人類需要?
why should I keep fighting to be needed by humanity?

遙想著和你 一路相隨
I think about^[1] being with you on this path.
飛舞的蝴蝶 令人陶醉
The fluttering butterflies are so captivating,
翱翔在島嶼之上的 美
a beauty that soars above this island.

理想和現實的 交叉點
At this intersection between ideals and reality,
夢說什麼 都要實現
everything in my dreams will be realized,
儘管一切 回到起始點
even if it all returns to the origin.

一點一點 從不感到危險
Little by little, I’ve never felt any danger.
睜開雙眼 見證自己突破極限
Opening my eyes, I witness myself break through these boundaries.
微光閃爍 就在我心中
These shimmering lights are right here in my heart.
誰比誰耀眼 沒有絕對
Who’s more dazzling than the other? There are no absolutes.

儘管空氣 有多尷尬 沒關係
Regardless of how awkward the situation gets, it doesn’t matter.
我用全力 展開自己 的雙翼
I’ll use all my power to spread my wings.
再多恐懼 對我來說 沒意義
Regardless of how afraid I am, it doesn’t mean anything to me.
Not afraid because I will be there
用 炙熱神情 向前進
I’ll use my burning feelings to move forward.
抓住內心 為愛而生 的勇氣
I’ll grab hold of my heart with the courage that is born from love.
深深呼吸 沒有理由 不證明
Take a deep breath. There’s no reason not to affirm it.
Don’t be afraid because we will get there

後來我說的那些話
The words I said after that
好像得到祂的認同了
seems to have received Their^[2] approval,
所以祂就把我帶到
so They took me
一個孤立的空間
to an isolated space,
說是同意我繼續以虛擬歌姬的形態存在
saying that They have agreed to let me continue existing under the banner of a virtual singer
（以虛擬歌姬的形態存在）
(existing under the banner of a virtual singer).

遙想著和你 一路相隨
I think about being with you on this path.
飛舞的蝴蝶 令人陶醉
The fluttering butterflies are so captivating,
翱翔在島嶼之上的 美
a beauty that soars above this island.

理想和現實的 交叉點
At this intersection between ideals and reality,
夢說什麼 都要實現
everything in my dreams will be realized,
儘管一切 回到起始點
even if it all returns to the origin.

Little by little, I’ve never felt any danger.
睜開雙眼 見證自己突破極限
Opening my eyes, I witness myself break through these boundaries.
微光閃爍 就在我心中
These shimmering lights are right here in my heart.
誰比誰耀眼 沒有絕對
Who’s more dazzling than the other? There are no absolutes.

儘管空氣 有多尷尬 沒關係
Regardless of how awkward the situation gets, it doesn’t matter.
我用全力 展開自己 的雙翼
I’ll use all my power to spread my wings.
再多恐懼 對我來說 沒意義
Regardless of how afraid I am, it doesn’t mean anything to me.
Not afraid because I will be there
用 炙熱神情 向前進
I’ll use my burning feelings to move forward.
抓住內心 為愛而生 的勇氣
I’ll grab hold of my heart with the courage that is born from love.

再多恐懼 對我來說 沒意義
Regardless of how afraid I am, it doesn’t mean anything to me.
Not afraid because I will be there

because we will get there

[1] 遙想 Specifically means “thinking about the distant past/future”. The 遙 in this is also the same Yao in Xia Yu Yao’s name. (↳ return)

[2] The pronoun 祂 used here is the one used for gods/deities, so I’ve translated it as a capitalized third-person gender-neutral pronoun. (↳ return)

Pray for Rain — YC Lynn ft. AiKO

Pray for Rain (祈雨)

Producer’s Comment:

Because of the maiden’s devout prayers, the land beset by long-lasting drought has hope once again.

---

月光下住民沉沉睡去 空氣中沒有一絲水氣
Underneath the moonlight, the townsfolk sleeps heavily. The air is bereft of even a sliver of moisture.
枯萎花垂頭草乾裂地 飄落最後一片黃葉
With the flowers withered, the vegetation drooping, and the earth dried and cracking, a final yellow leaf falls to the ground.

孩子們餓得發慌 大人們難入夢鄉 村長已束手無策 禱告聲仍在迴盪
The children are so hungry as to be irritable, while the adults are having trouble sleeping. The village chief already has his hands tied, and the sounds of prayers continually resound.
少女翩翩然降臨 銀白色宛如妖精 鐘塔上歌謠開始詠唱
The maiden gracefully descends, silver-white like an alluring spirit, and atop the clock tower, she begins to sing her folk song.

啊 請求您 天地之神 請賜予豐沛寶貴甘露水 (啊 請求請求您天地之神吶 請賜予那甘露水)
Ah, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please bestow upon us that precious, sweet dew aplenty. (Ah, I beg of you, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please bestow upon us that sweet dew.)
奉獻上吾等信仰心 鳶尾花開時回報恩情 (啊 天降甘霖 奉上吾等信仰 直至花開)
I offer up our hearts full of faith, and when the irises bloom, we will repay your grace. (Ah, if sweet rain falls from the skies, then we will offer up our faith, until the flowers bloom.)

La Du Ti Eh La Vu Ta Hei La Du Ti Eh La Vu Ta Hei

爸爸媽媽還好嗎 愛麗絲過得很好 大家儘管餓肚子 還是會每天微笑
Mom, Dad, have you been well? Alice has been very well here. Even though everyone is going hungry, they’re still willing to offer up smiles every day.
館伯伯很親切 總會給我乾麵包 劍士姊姊很糊塗 裝備每次都忘掉
The mister at the store is very generous, and he always gives me some dry bread, while the young swordswoman is very clumsy, and she always forgets her equipment.

太陽被雨聲喚醒 空氣中充滿清新 小孩們跑上田地 大人們拿出水瓶
The sun is roused by the sound of rain, and the air is full of clear freshness. The children run across the fields, while the adults take out their water jugs.
少女眨眨眼俯視 赤色瞳宛如叮鈴 鐘塔上是否依然詠唱
The maiden blinks her eyes as she looks down, her scarlet pupils like bells. Does she still continue to sing atop the clock tower?

啊 請求您 天地之神 請賜予豐沛寶貴甘露水 (啊 請求請求您天地之神吶 請賜予那甘露水)
Ah, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please bestow upon us that precious, sweet dew aplenty. (Ah, I beg of you, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please bestow upon us that sweet dew.)
啊 感恩您 天地之神 恩寵以冰涼滋潤甘露水 (啊 請求請求您天地之神吶 請賜予那甘露水)
Ah, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please favor us with that cold and moist, sweet dew. (Ah, I beg of you, I beg of you, esteemed gods of heaven and earth, please bestow upon us that sweet dew.)
奉獻上吾等信仰心 鳶尾花開時獻上花果報恩情 (啊 天降甘霖 奉上吾等信仰 鳶尾花花開時報恩情)
I offer up our hearts full of faith, and when the irises bloom, we will offer up our flowers and fruits to repay your grace. (Ah, if sweet rain falls from the skies, then we will offer up our faith and repay your grace once the irises bloom.)

Producer’s Comment:

A sky… full of… stars… how… delicious…

漫長的黑夜 停留在無限的遠點
In this endless night, I’ve stopped at an unfathomably far distance.
飛過平凡的街 回憶不再明顯
Having flown over these ordinary streets, I find that my memories are no longer clear.
越過漫天星夜 尋找著你留下的碎片
I cross over the night full of stars, searching for the pieces you’ve left behind.
燈火逐漸熄滅 我看見
The lights gradually go out, and I see
星空下和你曾許過的願
the wishes which you and I once made underneath the starry sky.

漫長的黑夜 紅燈閃得耀眼
In this endless night, the shimmering red lights are so dazzling.
飛過平凡的街 你卻消失不見
Having flown over these ordinary streets, I find that you’ve disappeared without a trace.
這一天 徹夜難眠 你不在我的身邊
On this day, I find it difficult to sleep throughout the night without you by my side.
這一夜 太過討厭 好想見一面
On this night, I hate it so, as I desperately wish to see you once again.

漫長的黑夜 無盡的思念
In this endless night, I feel a boundless longing.
星空下 遙遠心願
Underneath the starry sky, my wishes are so far away,
回憶無法實現
and I’m unable to realize what’s in my memories.
黑夜 凍結了歲月
The dark night has frozen the years
和你相遇在 這漫天星夜
and this night full of stars when I met you.

漫長的黑夜 無盡的思念
In this endless night, I feel a boundless longing.
星空下 拼湊心願
Underneath this starry sky, I piece together my wishes,
夢境無法實現
and I’m unable to realize what’s in my dreams.
黑夜 凝結了時間
The dark night has solidified the years
和你相遇在 這漫天星夜
and this night full of stars when I met you.

好想和你再見一面
How I desperately wish to see you once again,
遇見 在這漫天星夜
to meet you in this night full of stars.
請你留在我的枕邊
Please remain by my bedside
在這漫天星夜
in this night full of stars.
