Shinjitshu no uta

Romaji Lyrics English Translation

akaku nijimu  taiyou wa subete o

terashite kita  ima mo mukashi mo

kono yuuyami ni  egaiteru souzou wa

hatashite  kono te ni oenai mono na no ka?   

the crimson-stained sun

has illuminated everything; now and the past

is what i have imagined within this twilight

more than my own hands can accomplish?

motto ima ijou ni  hadaka ni natte

ikite yuku jutsu  oshiete yo

honno sukoshi dake  watashi o yogoshite

sou yatte hitori  kizutsuitari

mawari o nakushita to shite mo

shinjitsu no uta wa  kono mune ni nagare

please teach me how to live

a little more vulnerably than i do now [1]

won't you taint me just a little?

that way, even if i get hurt

and lose everything around me

this song of truth will flow through my heart

arasoi wa mada tsuzukun darou

dono michi ima ga taisetsu na no sa

gamushara ni natte  miotoshite kita mono

tatoeba dare ka no  yasashii hohoemi mo

this dispute will probably go on

about that which is most precious[2]

i've become a rebel, i've overlooked things

even the gentle smiles of strangers

eien o shireba  donna kurayami mo

itami mo  itsuka kiete

sou yatte ima wa  watashi o yogoshite

zutto mukashi mita  tenkuu no shiro ni

itsuka wa  tadoritsukeru

shinjitsu no uta o  michishirube ni shite

if eternity knows what manner of darkness

and when pain will vanish,

then that way, you shall taint me

i looked always to yesterday, to the castles in the sky

when will i be able to follow them?

this song of truth shall be my guide

eien o shireba  donna kurayami mo

itami mo  itsuka kiete

shinjitsu no uta wa  kono mune ni nagare

if eternity knows what manner of darkness

and when pain will vanish,

this song of truth will flow through my heart

motto ima ijou ni  watashi o yogoshite

hon no sukoshi dake  watashi o yogoshite

now, please, taint me just a little

please, just taint me, only a little

shinjitsu no uta o  michishirube ni shite

this song of truth shall be my guide
