来る3月11日(日)に、震災より1年を迎えるにあたって、じっとしてられなかった仲間と一緒に、この一年で各自が考えたことを何か具体的な行動で表してみようとオランダ・アムステルダムのMediamaticという場所を一日使わせてもらいたくさんの人が集まれるスペース&機会を作る運びとなりました。
オランダにおられる方は、どうぞ足をお運びくださいませ。。。

一年前の話も未来の話も、同時に語れるような、そんな企画になるよう考えております。

The earthquake that hit Japan on the 11th of March 2011 and the nuclear disaster that followed have had a profound impact on our lives.Since these tragic events, Japanese people everywhere, including those in Holland, have been struggling with the effects on a daily basis.
The impact of the Japan Earthquake raises critical questions regarding our future patterns of living, including the use of nuclear power.

朝がまた来る Asa ga mata kuru

Lyrics

Asa ga mata kuru

Omoi yo yukinasai

Onaji you na ichinichi ga kyou mo hajimaru
tonari no hito ga sora miagete shitauchi suru
Kyodai na kousaten ni kasa ga saite yuku

Ame datte hare datte negai wa todokanai anata no inai asa wa kuru kara
Ima wa shingou ga kawareba nagasareru
–Omoi yo yukinasai

Ushiro kara kita hito ga butsukatte oikosu
botto shiteta no wa kotchi na noni ayamarareru
Tsumetai ame no shizuku ga namida ni mieta

Kowarete naita-tte negai wa todokanai anata no inai asa wa kuru kara
Ima wa eki made tsukeba nagasareru
–Omoi yo yukinasai

Dare mo tachidomaranai gaitou no NYUUSU ni mo iradatta jitensha ni mo

Ame datte hare datte negai wa todokanai anata no inai asa wa kuru kara
Ima wa arukenai kono mama nagasarete itai
–Omoi yo yukinasai

Ame nara kasa motte haretara uwagi nuide min’na sou shite ikite yuku noni
Ame ni butaretai haretara yakaretai

Kowarete naita-tte negai wa todokanai
anata no inai asa ga kyou mo akeru kara
Ima wa kono mama
Itsuka kono omoi ga yuku hi made

Sora e noboru hi made

English translation

Morning will come again

~Feelings, please pass away~

Same as any other day, today starts
nearby person looks up at the sky, clicks their tongue
at giant intersection, umbrellas are blossoming

Through rain and shine
wishes unfulfilled
because the morning you are not here comes
now, when the traffic signal changes, drift

~Feelings, please pass away~

Person coming from behind hits and passes by
they were spaced out but I am apologizing
cold rain drops looked like tears
broken & crying
wishes unfulfilled
because the morning you are not here comes
now, until reaching the station, drift

~Feelings, please pass away~

Nobody stands still for anything — for news on the street, for exasperating bicycles

Through rain and shine
hopes unfulfilled
because the morning you are not here comes
now, can’t walk, want to drift just as-this

~Feelings, please pass away~

When raining, carry an umbrella — when clear take off jacket
so thus everyone goes through life — however
I want to be hit by the rain, when sunny I want to get sunburned

Broken & crying
wishes unfulfilled
because the morning you are not here dawns
now, as-this, someday until these feeling pass away

Until the sun rises up in the sky

Japan Earthquake: before and after

津波の前後が比べられる空中写真。マウスを写真の上にのせると被災後の映像が出てきます。

Aerial photos taken over Japan have revealed the scale of devastation across dozens of suburbs and tens of thousands of homes and businesses.
Hover over each satellite photo to view the devastation caused by the earthquake and tsunami.
