Please read: This is the translation to the op song of Escaflowne (tv series) If you want the actual lyrics they are following this songfic thingy. (^^;)


Promises Are Not Necessary

'Say, when you love someone
Does anyone become this lonely?'

Hitomi looks up into the dark sky...

'Say, do they embrace suffering
Deeper than the dark night ?'

Van looks up to the Mystic Moon...

'Everything exists to brighten the two of us
Surely'

Merle is lying down. Suddenly as if something is wrong she sits up...

'I love you, love you
Gazing at you with my heart'

Dryden (in a disguse) glazes lovingly at Millerna...

'I believe in you, believe in you
Even in the cold night'

Celene watches Allen practice his sword-fighting techniques...

'Say, when in love, in the end will it
Eventually come to everyone?'

The moleman eats his supper alone...

'Say, would you abandon a heartbeat
Even clearer than the blue sky?'

Escaflowne sleeps as the guardian of the Fanelian graveyard...

'I run along the path of the season changing wind
The whole way'

Hitomi runs at a track meet...

'I love you, love you
Gazing at you with my heart'

Van stares at the red slender pendant...

'I believe in you, believe in you
Even in the cold night'

Yukari looks at Hitomi practice endlessly for the next track meet...

'Even if I'll lose tomorrow
And I lose you as well
I want to shine with all my heart'

Folken and his two cat-girls watch over Van...

'I call to you now in tears
I don't need your promises
You were a present because it gave me precious strength'

Allen collapses onto Celene in exhaustion...

'Now I call to you with my eyes
I don't need your promise'

Millerna looks out of her window, and sees Dryden...

'Now I reach out for you with my eyes
Even in the cold night'

Van's mother and Hitomi's grandmother watches the events unfold...


Yakusoku wa Iranai

Nee, aishitara
Dare mo ga konna kodoku ni naru no?
Nee, kurayami yori mo
Fukai kurushimi dakishimeteru no?
Nani mo kamo ga futari kagayaku tame
Kitto
Kimi o kimi o aishiteru
Kokoro de mitsumeteiru
Kimi o kimi o shinjiteru
Samui yoru mo
Nee, koishite mo dare ni mo itsuka
Owari ga kuru no?
Nee, aozora yori mo sunda
Tokimeki suteteshimau no?
Kisetsu kawari no kaze
Michi o hashiru zutto
Kimi o kimi o aishiteru
Kokoro de mitsumeteiru
Kimi o kimi o shinjiteru
Samui yoru mo
Tatoe ashita nakushite mo
Anata o ushinatte mo
Dekiru kagiri no egao de kagayakitai
Namida de ima yobikakeru
Yakusoku nado iranai
Kimi ga kureta taisetsu na tsuyosa da kara
Hitomi de ima yobikakeru
Yakusoku nado iranai
Hitomi de ima te o nobasu
Samui yoru mo
