The Wooden Girl (Thousand Year Wiegenlied)
Miku Hatsune and Haku Yowane
Lyrics: JCWarriorCats
I'm so sorry for being alive
She spoke only of when death would arrive
The girls hair was unlike the others a pure snow white
Standing at the roots of a grand old tree
She fell down onto her knees
And she prayed for her friends with, all her might
And I wanted so desperately
To grant what she wished so selflessly
But unfortunately I cannot do such things, with this body
Then at that moment she appeared to me
The girl who held such sorcery
Thanks to her, I a mere spirit
Was reborn as a human innocent
I knew nothing of this world outside of these beautiful woods
So when I saw that girl crying I simply couldn't have understood
It's so peaceful and it's dull; that really should be a good thing but
I still cannot comprehend, what makes you cry, oh what?
Two different people of two different dreams
Different races and value
Have now become a team
Let this thousand year vow, echo to the outskirts of the Earth
The wiegenlied that binds our fate of future destruction
Our differences are the very reason, we are drawn together
Please stay by my side; I will always give you protection
I who was only a spirit ended up being made into a human
Maybe that's why we can understand each other my friend
Living on these stranger streets, has shaken me down to my core
But as long as it's just you and me I can bear what's all in store
Living each day in this strange new body
I actually began to know exactly what joy can be
Let this thousand year vow, fly far into the heavens
The wiegenlied that binds our fate of future destruction
As time goes by, the change may bring periods of loneliness
But if I see your smiling face, everything will be perfection
At an evening banquet, I coincidentally got to meet a great king
The destruction had been set in motion, didn't notice it happening
This grand man who loved me rejected a proposal from a neighboring princess
This very kingdom erupted in flames, her iron fist was relentless
The two of us were torn so far apart
Only now do I fully conclude the feelings welling up in my heart
Let this thousand year vow, resound back to your side
I can no longer return to what I was before you came
This new resolution, is unable to be shaken
I love you I say with the hope the words will inflame
Even if the world in all of its entirety, backstabs me with their hateful jeers
Even if the world in all of its entirety, backstabs you with their hateful jeers
If there is a single person in the world, who needs me to chase away their fears
I will protect you always, as I promised long ago my ever so dear
So now, I will always be filled to the brink with happiness
I just want to see you smile, the one that brings me bliss
If you really can, live on through this
If you really can, live on through this
If our paths were ever to pass once again
If our paths were ever to pass once again
Let's live together once again, in perfect harmony
Let's live together once again, in perfect harmony
I'll wait here for you forever just as our fate would intend
I'll wait here for you forever just as our fate would intend
Deep in the bottom of a darkened well, the lovely moon rises up in the sky
The knife's buried into my chest, so here I lie
The assassin with bright golden hair has made his swift escape
The evil truth was lost from existence, in the dark's drape
The translucent white hair and the clumsy smile
Please oh please just promise me, you'll live a while
If I could be blessed by you again, there's something I'd like to tell
If it were to be possible to be reborn, If I could… well…
