Lacrimosa

So I decided to write lyrics for another song while procrastinating from doing other work. I decided to do a song on a whim. I wrote these really quick. The song is from a band called Kalafina and they are from Japan. The name of the song is Lacrimosa. The song is the ending theme to an anime called Kuroshitsuji, or Black Butler. It is a great song and it is really beautiful. I love it.

I will post a video with a song at the end of the post.

Japanese Lyrics (Romanized)


Kurayami no naka de mutsumiau
Zetsubou to mirai o
Kanashimi o abaku tsukiakari
Tsumetaku terashiteta

Kimi no kureta himitsu o shirube ni shite
Aoi yoru no shizukesa o yuku

Lacrimosa
Tooku kudakete kieta
Mabushii sekai o mou ichido aishitai
Hitomi no naka ni yume o kakushite
Yogoreta kokoro ni
Namida ga ochite kuru made

Maboroshi no basha wa yami o wake
Hikari no aru hou e
Yume to iu wana ga boku tachi o
Homura e izanau

Sora no ue no mujihi na kamigami ni wa
Donna sakebi mo todoki wa shinai
Lacrimosa

Bokura wa moesakaru takigi to nari
Itsuka sono sora o yakitsukusou

Lacrimosa
Koko ni umarete ochita
Chinureta sekai o osorezu ni aishitai
Yurusareru yori yurushi shinjite
Yogoreta chijou de
Namida no hibi o kazoete

English Translation

The moonlight, which exposes sadness
Coldly illuminated
Despair and the future
That are friendly with each other within the darkness

Turning the secret that you gave me into a sign
I go through the silence of the pale night

Lacrimosa
Once more, I want to love the glaringly bright world
That shattered in the distance and vanished
Hide your dream in your eyes
Until tears come falling
Onto your sullied heart

The phantom carriage parts the darkness
And goes toward where the light is
The trap known as dreams
Lures us toward the flames

No shout of any sort will reach
The merciless gods above the sky
Lacrimosa…

We’ll be the blazing firewood
And seem to burn away the sky someday

Lacrimosa
I want to fearlessly love the blood-soaked world
That I was born in
Rather than being forgiven, forgive and believe in me
Count the number of lachrymose days
On the sullied earth



My english lyrics

In the moonlit night, the sadness is lightened by dark
brought to life by the endless white light
The desperate future, struggling from deep within
There is no use, you must give in.

The secret, you gave to me, turns into a sign in my heart
The silence from the night is too much for me to handle

Lacrimosa, oh once more, I want to know how to love this world
The one that shattered into the dark, and vanished from me, out of my sight
Those dreams that are in your eyes,
all that they can do is hide
Until every last one of your
tears falls on your heart,
they cannot be awakened.

The phantom in the night and the horse driven coach
they lead you into the light
the trap that is your dreams will never let you leave your mind
as it lures you into the blue flames

If we shout, nothing comes. No sound will ever reach anything. Someone!
We can try to reach the gods, but nothing will come of it
Lacrimosa

We are the burning firewood, and they are the ones kindling the flames
But if we can try we can set the sky ablaze

With this pain I want to be loved and caressed , undying
by the world that is stained in blood, the one that I was meant to be in
I know you want to be free, from the guilt that keeps you barred
So I will sing, sing you to sleep.
Through the tears that you cry
You know you'll be forgiven.



This is a repost. I forgot one section of the lyrics so I had to go back and fix it. It is actualy better now in my opiion.
