"Sakura maichiru ano oka de" art by bakuhatsumar
桜舞い散るあの丘で
命が無くなれば人は 土と化し記憶さえも
風の中溶け込む様に 届かぬ場所へと還る
漆黒の闇の中 一人その足元を揺らし
駆け巡る想いだけ 空に宙に吸い込まれ消えた
ここから見下ろした鬼の街はとても黒すぎて
遠のく意識さえ赤い火の粉飛ばし消え失せてく
袖を掴んで 廻る私を 貴方が止めて
優しく抱き締めてほしい
響き渡る泣声 冷えたこの手の平にはもう
貴方への想いさえ 掴む事も許されぬまま
おぼろげな月明かり 腕をのばす術さえもなく
刹ないこの命を 雲に映しはかなげに落ちた
貴方の生きてきた鬼の街はとても寂しくて
果てない痛みから遠く遠く遠く逃げたくて
私の生きてきた鬼の街はとても寂しくて
果てない痛みから遠く遠く遠く逃げたくて
貴方を下に見て私一人陰を抱いて眠る
あの丘から景色は 吸い込まれそうな天空に
暗黒の俗世を分けた 私を取り巻く桜が舞う
On the Hill Where Sakura Dance and Fall
When people die, they turn into earth
And even their memories return to an unreachable place
Like melting into the wind
Alone within the jet-black shadows,
Only those thoughts that caused my feet to sway
Were swallowed into the sky, into space, and vanished*
The Oni town I looked upon is much too black
Even my receding consciousness disappears in flying red sparks
I wish you would catch my sleeve and stop me from wandering,
Gently embracing me
Crying voices resound, my hands have grown cold**
As if even holding on to my thoughts of you is forbidden
Unable to even reach out to the dim moonlight,
My painful life was reflected in the clouds, and transiently fell
The town of Oni where you have been living is too lonely
From endless pain you want to run far, far, far away
The town of Oni where I have been living is too lonely
From endless pain I want to run far, far, far away
Looking down upon you,
I embrace the shadows alone and sleep
From that hill, the scenery seems like it could be absorbed by the sky
Separated from a world of darkness, cherry blossoms dance around me
And even their memories return to an unreachable place
Like melting into the wind
Alone within the jet-black shadows,
Only those thoughts that caused my feet to sway
Were swallowed into the sky, into space, and vanished*

Notes:
*Isshi sings 'sora' (sky) twice, but the second kanji is 宙 (space, midair).
**He sings 'sono te' (your hands) but written in the lyrics is この手 (my hands).
