Lyrics

Japanese Kana/Romaji
遥か遠く 夜を越えて
砂漠の海を 彷徨う
神の声は 蜃気楼
忘れられた人々
影は白く 揺らめきたつ
今ひとたびの 幻
蒼く燃える 勇者の夢
永遠に眠る人々
Haruka tooku yoru o koete
Sabaku no umi o samayou
Kami no koe wa shinkirou
Wasurerareta hitobito
Kage wa Shirōku yurameki tatsu
Ima hitotabi no maboroshi
Aoku moeru yuusha no yume
Towa ni nemuru hitobito
English translation
Crossing the distant night,
Wandering the desert sea.
The gods' voices are mirages;
The forgotten people.
Shadows flicker palely, then stand;
For one moment, an illusion.
A hero's dream, burning blue,
The people, sleeping forever.
