Natsume Yūjin-Chō - First English Closing

"Ai Shiteru”
by Kourin

~~~

On that day where the sky was ablaze,
and rays of light were piercing through,
the evening rain had stopped,
I noticed the scent of summer,
and the crowded, shining lights.

If I turned my ear to my thoughts,
and I could hear traces of my dear friends.

The summer evening sky
and the vivid passing days were just the same,
and so I laughed; it was just like
my memory of that summer.

note: I am not for certain in the name of the song is correct, If it is indeed not please correct me. Thank you.

Natsume Yūjin-Chō - English Opening

"Issei no Sei"
by by Shuhei Kita

~~~

There you go, making that face again
biting onto your lips.

You're hiding your weak side,
but deep in those eyes
I can see you cowering.

If you had a true heart,
you would care, cry, call for someone and worry.

Why are you holding onto the pain?

Share some of it with me.

If you don't think it's possible right away,
you can do it slowly bit by bit.
We don't have wings,
but I'm sure we're only finding times that we can't fly.

I'll call for you to the limits of my voice
so that you won't get lost.
Soar up to the sky with your gentel heart,
ride on that wing, and get it all at once.

Fafner of the Azure Op.

Soukyuu no Fafner

Shangia-La
