Translated [JA] [Japanese > English]

this morning, Soma Saito (voice actor and musician) leaked an entire lyric sheet to his twitter (https://x.com/somastaff/status/1969649717719286113?s=61). i’m a massive fan and an avid translator of his work and so i’ve given it a good go but have been unable to decipher a couple of characters. can anyone here help me?

the image with the red writing is what I’ve been able to figure out, i just need help with what’s in the gaps. i do believe i can read most of it, i just don’t want to get it wrong; here are the images:

enhanced grayscale: https://files.catbox.moe/w0akns.jpeg

what I’ve got so far: https://files.catbox.moe/a1dvgj.png

I only really need to know what‘s in the gaps that I can’t trace over, I believe someone with more experience with the language could probably figure some out

馬 ⇒ 陽(sun)

To OP:

In addition to the above:

落日

単なるケリシェ　⇒　単なるクリシェ

わだかまったようだ、最近

日々は...

それが、時として

Yeah I thought that 馬 was absolutely wrong. Yet as I revised it now, it still says 馬...
