決まった translation

[nonezumi]

Hello,

If possible, please kindly help with translation of the second sentence:

揺れる心と同じリズムで、電車がガタガタと跳ねる。
決まったレールの上を決まった時間通りに走る音。

Maybe it says about riding on train and then walking on the noisy street
at exact time. But, unfortunately, I am confused with sentence structure.

Thank you very much! :sorry:

決まった roughly means "defined/set/fixed" in that context.

The sound of the train running on the fixed rail in the fixed time schedule (is heard).

I'm not quite getting the first sentence. "The train jumps around noisily with the same rhythm of a nervous heart"? Or "disturbed heart"? What does 揺れる心 mean?

Hello Toritoribeさん、

Thank you very much for yours, as always, perfect explanation.
I am sorry I did not notice that ﾅｽﾅｾﾅ?ﾃ披?凖岩?堙ｨ is really single word.
Thank you so much again :sorry:

Hello Glennさん、

Thank you so much for your question.
I had an image that 揺れる心 is "beating heart". But I am not sure if it is correct.
:sorry:

 

[Toritoribe]

"Shaky heart/mind" might fit this context.
