哀戦士 (Ai senshi- Soldier of Sorrow) by GACKT

哀　震える哀
Ai furueru ai
Sorrow, trembling sorrow
それは別れの唄
Sore wa wakare no uta
That is the song of parting.
拾う骨も燃え尽きて
Hirou hone mo moetsukite
The gathered bones burn,
濡れる肌も土に還る
Nureru hada mo tsuchi ni kaeru
and the drenched skin returns to the earth.
荒野を走る死神の列
Kouya wo hashiru shinigami no retsu
Running across the wasteland, a line of death gods,
黒く歪んで真赤に燃える
Kuroku yugande makka ni moeru
distorted in black, burn bright red.

哀　生命の哀
Ai (inochi) no ai
Sorrow, the sorrow of existence
血の色は大地に捨てて
Chi no iro wa daichi ni sutete
The color of blood is thrown out on the ground.
新たな時を開くか
Arata na toki wo aku ka
Will they open a new time?
生き残る哀戦士たち
Ikinokoru ai senshitachi
The surviving soldiers of grief?
荒野を走る死神の列
Kouya wo hashiru shinigami no retsu
Running across the wasteland, a line of death gods,
黒く歪んで真赤に燃える
Kuroku yugande makka ni moeru
distorted in black, burn bright red.

何を賭けるのか　何を残すのか

What do they risk? What do they leave behind?
I pray, pray to bring near the New Day

Mada minu (asu) no tame ni
Only a number of lives have vanished
消えた命の数だけ

for the sake of the future we can't yet see.

That's what I want to believe.

for peace.
