requiem in the air          

Hateshinai kodoku to
Taemanai arasoi
Sekai wa mayoi no naka ni aru

Mihatenu chi ni katsubou shi
Mihatenu yume ni yokubou suru
Inochi to hikikaete made

Sore demo haiiro sora wa
Itsuka aoku hareru darou
Manabu beki toki wa chikai no dakara

Inori wo sasagemashou
Mirai wo negaimashou
Hikari aru kodomotachi fukushuku shimashou

Sekai ga hitotsu ni naru
Sono toki made
Endless loneliness
and incessant strife
The world lies in indecision

On this unfulfilled earth those with desires
yearn for an impossible dream,
so much they’d give their life for it

Even so, someday the grey sky
will shine a clear blue
For the time is near in which we all must learn

Let us offer a prayer
and wish for the future
Let us bless the children who hold the light

Until the world
becomes as one
