Akatsuki Lyrics


Romaji Lyrics -

Ikusen mo no yoru o koete

iki tsuzukeru ai ga aru kara

kono karada ga horobiru made

inochi ga kieru made

mamori tsuzukete yuku.

 

Hitomi no oku ni hikaru

nakidashi-soona tsuki wa

akai namida afurete

yozora o somete yuku.

 

Seijaku no naka de

kizutsuita yaiba sashi-mukai

kodoku mo fuan mo

kiri-tsukeru, kokoro made.

 

Ikusen mo no yoru o koete

iki tsuzukeru ai ga aru kara

kono karada ga horobiru made

inochi ga kieru made

mamori tsuzukete yuku.

 

Sugite yuku toki no naka

hitomi o tojita mama

kono te ni nagareru akai ito kiretemo

kanjite-iru, kizuna o

 

Seijaku no naka de

kizutsuita yaiba sashi-mukai

kodoku mo fuan mo

kiri-tsukeru, kokoro made,

ima.

 

Ikusen mo no yoru o koete

iki tsuzukeru ai ga aru kara

kono karada ga horobiru made

inochi ga itsuka kieru made

 

Ikusen mo no yoru o koete

iki tsuzukeru ai ga aru kara

kono karada ga horobiru made

inochi ga kieru made

mamori tsuzukete yuku.


Akaku somare! Makka ni somare!

English Lyrics - 

Going over thousands nights,

some love shall survive.

So, until my body perishes,

until my life disappears,

I shall keep on cherishing this love.


Shining in the depths of the eyes,

the moon is about to cry.

Red tears overflow

and dye the night sky.


In the silence,

the two damaged blades stand face to face.

Our loneliness and our uneasiness

slash even our hearts.


Going over thousands nights,

some love shall survive.

So, until my body perishes,

until my life disappears,

I shall keep on cherishing this love.


In the passage of time,

I keep my eyes shut.

Even if the red thread flowing in my hand breaks,

I still feel we are tied.


In the silence,

I hold the damaged blade face to face.

My loneliness and my uneasiness, 

I slash, even my heart,

now.


Going over thousands nights,

some love shall survive.

So, until my body perishes,

until my life disappears someday...


Going over thousands nights,

some love shall survive.

So, until my body perishes,

until my life disappears,

I shall keep on cherishing this love.


Dye crimson! Dye bloody crimson!
