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…
