Romanization: iro (2005.05.24)

aa sameta suhada     tsuki ga iyashi
sakimidareta yami     kaze ga karete...

kuroi kowai shinsou de    tsukiakari ga yami wo terasu dake awaku yurete
fukai kurai tameiki to      yami ni ukabu tsuki wo nagamete wa     shinku ni somaru dake

mada asai nemuri     saigo ni mita yume no tsuzuki wo...

senritsu ni nageku yoru wa hitori mayoi nukedasezu ni nomikondeyuku
boukyaku ka "kibou no hi" ka? negai wo ukabe     sabitsuita yume no hate wo samayotta

kogoekoru yami ga otou    saigo no yume to naru kigashite...     kako wo meguri...
obieobore unasarete         sokoshirenu zetsubou no fukami de    tsunagareteiru no

aa kasaneta hi yo "wasure no kawa" no mizu no you ni

aa koe ni naranai koe        kono kurai ori no kaze to narihibike...

aa asai(2) nemuri yume no tochuu...

 
(1) written "ten", sung "sora". Same meaning of "sky"
(2) written "fukai" (deep), sung "asai" (shallow). Opposite meanings, oddly.



the dream dreamt in a cage // d'espairsray version
(translation)

Translation: iro (2005.06.01)

ah, the moonlight cures my cold naked flesh
the darkness blooms profusely, the wind dies off...

in the black frightening secluded chamber, the pale wavering moonlight only shines on the darkness
I sigh deeply and gloomily; if I gaze at the moon that floats on the darkness, it is splattered only with deep crimson

shallow sleep still       and the rest of the dream, that I dreamt at the very end, is...

hesitating, unable to escape the trembling lamenting night; it's swallowing me up
oblivion? a "fire of hope"? my wishes are afloat, wandering at the limits of these rusted dreams

the frozen-over darkness inquires      I've a feeling it's become my last dream...      the past repeats...
fearing and drowning in the nightmares I have,         I am tied to the depths of this bottomless despair

ah, the days are heaped upon each other, like the waters of the "River of Forgetfulness"(1)
deep sleep again      and the rest of the dream, that I dreamt at the very beginning, is...

the countless fires that dance in the sky only sadly show me my fate, from which I cannot be rescued
I desire intensely to live...          I entrust my feelings to this song
ah, a voice that has no voice      echoes along with the winds of this gloomy cage...

ah, deep sleep, my dream is on the way...

 
(1) The River of Forgetfulness refers to the waters of the River Lethe, a mythological river that
runs through the underworld of Greek myth (Hades). Shades of souls who drink from those waters
forget everything about their former lives.
