Sayri's Translyrics Commissions
Status: Closed
Hello, I’m Sayri! I have been singing and writing translyrics (primarily from Japanese to English) for Vocaloid and J-Pop songs since 2015.My strengths lie in writing translyrics with heavy rhyme schemes and in staying faithful to the original translation and meaning of the song as much as is allowed. You may find a complete playlist of the translyrics I’ve written (for myself and for others) here.
Terms of Service
Please read these terms in their entirety before commissioning me.
Please credit me as Sayri and leave a link to my YouTube and Twitter.
Please be sure to credit me as a translyricist, NOT a translator—please credit the translator for any translations used.
Do not make modifications of any kind to my translyrics. This includes, but is not limited to: altering wording, swapping words, changing words, using only parts of my lyrics, etc. I put a lot of careful thought, effort, and consideration into every aspect of my translyrics, down to every little word, no matter how small; please respect this.
You may request revisions after I send the first full draft of the translyrics. I may not accept specific revision requests, but I am always happy to discuss your creative vision.
If I am not given a deadline, I will prioritize commissions with hard deadlines in my queue. Please give me a deadline if you expect to receive your commission within a certain timeframe.
My lyrics are available for others to use after they've been released/uploaded by the commissioner. My commissions are intended to be an opportunity for people to request lyrics for specific songs written by me. If you have any questions or concerns regarding others using lyrics you've commissioned, please DM me.
In the event that you request a commission for the same song that I have already accepted a commission for from another client, please be aware that I will decline your request and honor the first client's commission. You will be able to view/use those lyrics once the other client has released/uploaded the commissioned lyrics. I will not redo or write alternate lyrics for the same song.
Pricing may depend on the complexity of the song; complexity includes, but is not limited to: a song with fast-paced lyrics (ex: Brain Fluid Explosion Girl), a song with rap lyrics (ex: Isshin Furan, Mafia), a vague translation, etc.
Payment is via Paypal only. Payment will be upfront before I begin working on the commission.
I reserve the right to decline any commission.
I reserve the right to use any of my own translyrics.
Any violation of these terms is grounds for termination of the commission and the inability to request a commission from me in the future.

Guidelines
Please refer to these guidelines when ordering a commission from me.
To commission me, please DM me on Twitter with a filled order form.
Please be sure to provide me with a non-machine, credited translation. Although I hesitate to use terms such as "accurate" or "reliable" to describe translations because translation in itself is a creative medium, the content and "accuracy" of my translyrics will depend on the translation. I never want to use a machine translation (like from Google Translate or DeepL) as a reference for my lyrics. If I find that the translation I am given is incoherent, nonsensical, and likely ripped from a machine translator, I will ask that another one be used. You may find non-machine translations and translators from resources such as Vocaloid Lyrics Wiki, MagenetraTranslations, etc.
I work and deliver on deadlines in Pacific Time. Please keep this in mind if you request a strict deadline.
