"Yoru wa Hiru yori Utsukushiku"
(The Night is More Gorgeous Than Noon)
by. Paris Hanagumi (Noriko Hidaka, Saeko Shimazu, Etsuko Kozakura, Kikuko Inoue & Yoshino Takamori)
(All) Yoru no tobari ga orite TAIPURAITAA no oto ga tomaru
BIRU no kaidan kakeorite
(Glycine, Lobelia) Watashi wa (Hanabi) Watashi wa (Erica, Coquelicot) Watashi wa
(All) RURURARA RURURARA jiyuu
As the curtain of the night descend, the sound of typewriters stops
Running through the stairways of the building
I am / I am / I am
Lululala lululala at my liberty
(Erica) Hora tobira wo akereba senaka ni tsubasa
Sukunaku tomo ashita no asa made wa! Watashi wa jiyuu
Behold, wings on my back, as if the door has been opened
At least until tomorrow morning! I am at my liberty

Just by walking, I feel like releasing radiance rhythmically
Than noon, the night is more / Than noon, the night is more
Gorgeous / Gorgeous
The night is more gorgeous than noon to talk about love
(All) Yoru ga egao ni naru to KAFE no NEON ga JYAZU wo kanaderu
Ishi no hodou ga odoridasu
(Glycine, Lobelia) Watashi wa (Hanabi) Watashi wa (Erica, Coquelicot) Watashi wa
(All) RURURARA RURURARA jiyuu
The night is turning me into smile, and as the Cafe's neon lights, Jazz can be heard
Dancing along through the stone pavement
I am / I am / I am
Lululala lululala at my liberty
(Hanabi) Hora namida ga kieteku kokoro ga karuku
(Glycine) Toki yo tomare shiawase wo idakou! Watashi wa jiyuu
Behold, tears are vanishing and heart is lighter
Stop the time, and embrace happiness! I am at my liberty

Just by walking, I feel like releasing radiance rhythmically
Than noon, the night is more / Than noon, the night is more
Gorgeous / Gorgeous
The night is more gorgeous than noon to talk about love
(Erica, Coquelicot, Hanabi) Iya na kao shiteta asa (Glycine, Lobelia) Wasureyou

The morning with unpleasant look in our face / Let's forget them
The honesty sleeping inside our chest / Remember them
With the Parisian night, I will / take back my charming side
(Erica, Coquelicot, Hanabi) Yoru no tobari ga orite TAIPURAITAA no oto ga tomaru
(All) BIRU no kaidan kakeorite
(Glycine, Lobelia) Watashi wa (Hanabi) Watashi wa (Erica, Coquelicot) Watashi wa

As the curtain of the night descend, the sound of typewriters stops
Running through the stairways of the building
I am / I am / I am

"Jinsei wa Mizutamamoyou"
(Life is a Polkadots)
by. Hanabi Kitaooji (Yoshino Takamori) & Erica Fontaine (Noriko Hidaka)
(Hanabi) Itoshii hito yo anata to no toki ga
Watashi wo kagayakasete kureta
My beloved, the time spent with you
Has given shine to myself
(Erica) Itoshii hito yo anata to no toki wa
Kako e to nagareteyuku darou
My beloved, the time spent with you
seems to have washed away into bygone days
(Hanabi) ORUBOWAARU wakarete mo anata wo aishiteiru wa
Sonna serifu wo ikudo mo itta
AU REVOIR, even if we bid farewell, "I will still love you"
No matter how often that line had to be spoken
(Erica) ORUBOWAARU yo ga akete watashi wa BEDDO de hitori
Chigau ashita wo yumemite hohoemu
AU REVOIR, as the night turns dawn, I am alone in my bed
Smiling as I dream about a different tomorrow
* (Both) Ironna hito to kakawari nagara
Jinsei wa mizutamamoyou
Ukande wa shizumi shizunde wa ukabu
Jinsei wa mizutamamoyou
As various people influence one another
Life is a Polkadots
What's floating sinks away, what's sinking floats
Life is a Polkadots
(Hanabi) Nagareru toki ga watashi wo irodoru
This flowing moment, gives colours to me
(Erica) ORUBOWAARU nagareyuku kinou ni te wo furinagara
Konna watashi wo suki dato itte
(Hanabi) ORUBOWAARU meguriau subete no hito ni aisare
Koko wa gekijou dare mo ga HIROIN
AU REVOIR, wave our hands towards that washed away yesterday
Such about that part when you say that you like me
AU REVOIR, this meeting, for the love of all
This is the theatre, where everyone can be its heroine
REPEAT *
(Both) Ukande wa shizumi shizunde wa ukabu
Jinsei wa mizutamamoyou
Nagareru ai ga watashi wo irodoru
What's floating sinks away, what's sinking floats
Life is a Polkadots
This flowing love, gives colours to me

PERSONAL THOUGHTS
These are the lyrics for the latest Sakura Taisen Paris Hanagumi songs. The musical was held in February 2014, and while I have yet seen it, I purchased the mini album anyway. These lyrics are based on the CD booklet. My full review will be up sometime later this week in my Tumblr.
Excuse the quality of the translation, I never took any formal Japanese course so those are based on my self-learning skills. I might or might not complete the translation for the last 2 songs, so don't count on me to do so and wait for it. If anyone can provide me with those, I'd be very delighted to accept it (you can post it via comment below). Feel free to use the lyric to your likings, but if you can, please credit my name as the romaji transliterator, since I did spent a good amount of time to do this.
