Dirge in a Ruin

歌詞

陽射さぬ道に吹きゆく風は
もの言わぬ霊の追憶
いつか見た夢の焼け跡へと
還る術探し

流れる闇に灯す光の
儚さは誰の生き様
朽ちゆく骸にわずか遺る
さいごの恋心

微笑は重い鎧戸となり
心をかたく閉じ込める
抱き上げる骨の冷たさにも
揺らがないように

いずれ失せゆくものを愛した
それを悔やみはしないけれど
ただ願っていた
叶うならば
変わらずにいたいと

かすんでゆく　とおいひびに
わたしをよぶ　きみのこえは
むねのおくで　いまもずっと
やむことなく　きこえるのに

今の私に何ができよう
煤に汚れたこの腕に
過ぎ去りしものを抱きしめては
風に帰すだけ

仰いだ涯にあの空はなく
獄は燃えてなお死に冷え

降り積もるものは雪か灰か
もうわからない

教えてください
歌声の果てを

Translation

The wind blows through the path where light does not shine.
It is a recollection of the voiceless spirits.
I search for a means to return to the scorched ruins
That I once saw in a dream.

Whose life forms the transience of the light
In the flowing darkness?
It is the last love remaining in the corpses
Rotting away.

My smile becomes like a heavy shutter.
My heart is locked heavily.
I pray that the coldness of the bones I take up
Will not grow unstable.

I loved the one who, sooner or later, disappeared.
Though I mustn’t mourn them,
I just wished.
If my wish will be granted,
I want to live without change.

In the distant flames, you grow faint,
Though I can hear your voice
Inside my chest, calling me,
Without end…

What can I do, as I am now?
Embracing those who pass by
With my hands, stained with soot,
Only results in them returning to the wind.

That sky is no longer above the horizon I gaze at.
Hell burns, and freezes in death.

Is it snow or ash falling now?
I don’t know anymore.

Please, let me know
How your song ends.
