Yami no Yume (“Dream of Darkness”)

Released as a single (coupled with “RUN”)
Performed by Megumi OGATA as Emeraude
Translation and Romaji by Silenka

garasu no hi wa toorisugi
tobiiro yoru ga hirogaru
tooku ni naku kaze no koe
kokoro no kishimi to utau

Sunlight of glass has passed me by
A red-brown night has begun to spread
The keening voice of the distant wind
Sings in concert with the discord in my heart

akari terasarete wa keshite tsumugenu yume no ito
kanai wa shinai omoi daki nemuri ni tsuku

Light illuminates threads of dreams that cannot be woven together
Holding close feelings that will never be fulfilled, I drift to sleep

samenai yume wo mitai
dare mo kizutsukenu you ni
deguchi mo nai mama tada
yami no yume ni oboreru

I want a dream I will never wake from
One in which no one will be harmed
Without an escape from this, I can only
Drown in dreams of darkness

subete ga kooritsuku yoru
tokitachi kodou wo tomete
iki sae hisomete taguru
himitsu no namae to toiki

In the night that freezes everything
Both my pulse and the passage of time stand still
Pulling in even the sound of my breathing
I sigh a secret name

kaesu koto wa keshite yurusarenu yume no tamago wo
hitori de daite miru yume wa yami no kakera

The egg of the dream I incubate is surely unforgivable
The dream I embrace in solitude is a shard of darkness

izanau yume no kage ga yubisaki made somete yuku
kokoro ga nozonde iru yami no yume no otozure

The shadow of an enticing dream dyes me to my fingertips
Marking the arrival of the dark dream my heart longs for

kaesu koto wa keshite yurusarenu yume no tamago wo
hitori de daite miru yume wa yami no kakera

The egg of the dream I incubate is surely unforgivable
The dream I embrace in solitude is a shard of darkness

samenai yume wo mitai
doko made mo ochiteku yume
kokoro ga nozonde iru yami no yume no otozure

I want a dream I will never wake from
A dream in which I fall completely
Marks the arrival of the dark dream my heart longs for

闇の夢

硝子の陽は通り過ぎ
鳶色夜が拡がる
遠くに啼く風の声
心の軋みと謳う

灯り照らされてはけして紡げぬ夢の糸
叶いはしない想い抱き 眠りにつく

醒めない夢を見たい
誰も傷つけぬように
出口もないままただ
闇の夢に溺れる

全てが凍りつく夜
時立ち鼓動を止めて
息さえ潜めて手繰る
秘密の名前と吐息

かえす事はけして許されぬ夢の卵を
一人で抱いて見る夢は闇の欠片

誘う夢の影が指先まで染めてゆく
心が望んでいる闇の夢の訪れ

かえす事はけして許されぬ夢の卵を
一人で抱いて見る夢は闇の欠片

醒めない夢を見たい
どこまでも堕ちてく夢
心が望んでいる闇の夢の訪れ
