warrior

根を這わす土地はない この血で咲き誇れよ

振りほどけない まとわりついた しがらみに足を取られる

俺の意志が 辿り着かない それならもう捨ててやるさ

-ancient warriors dreams-

痛みを刻めよ

押さえつけられるのはごめんだ 自由って意味をもう知ってる

その重さも苦さも全部 輝いて見えたんだ

-ancient warriors dreams-

痛みを刻めよ この地上にまだ 希望を見るなら

すべては力に変えられるから

決して散ることのない花を咲かせるんだ この血を糧にして

俺たちがここで生きた証は永遠に生き続ける ああ 最果ての時代まで

一人 また一人 消えていく 大事な人ばかりが

この夢の代償ならもう払わない すべてを連れて行くんだ 俺たちで

決して散ることのない花を咲かせるんだ この血を糧にして

俺たちがここで生きた証は永遠に生き続ける ああ 最果てまで

掲げるのさ 人や時間に邪魔されない 俺たちの誇りを

あざやかに 世界を照らす光であれ 夏草の中 ああ 真っ赤に咲き誇れ

戦いは終わらない

Oh land where the tree roots don’t crawl, with this blood, let it bloom in full glory.

I can’t give up. I’ve been going in circles. As if by some hindrance, my legs won’t go anymore.

I can’t come to my determination, and yet despite this, I’m throwing it away.

-ancient warriors dreams-

Engrave the pain

I’m sorry I’m letting myself get pinned down; truth is, I already know what freedom is like.

That weight, bitterness and everything, I can see it glimmer.

-ancient warrior dreams-

Engrave the pain, if you still see hope in this soil.

Because it will turn everything into strength.

Without a doubt the flower that has nothing to scatter will be made to bloom, and so this blood will serve to feed it.

The proof of the lives we’ve lived here will continue to live on forever, aa, until the very end of times.

One after another, all these important names are disappearing.

If that’s the price to live this dream, I have yet to pay it. Because we’re taking everything along with us.

Without a doubt the flower that has nothing to scatter will be made to bloom, and so this blood will serve to feed it.

The proof of the lives we’ve lived here will continue to live on forever, aa, until the very end.

Raise our pride, undisturbed by people or time.

Vividly, the world is illuminated by the light. In the summer grass, aa, a full bloom in deep red.

The battle is not over.
