Hyōri Ittai - Yazu

Hyōri Ittai av den japanska duon Yazu är en av de finaste sångerna jag vet. Mycket för att den var slutsång till sista delarna av animeserien Hunter X Hunter (2011) som är en av de bästa serierna jag vet. Men jag tror att en annan av orsakerna till att jag gillar den är texterna och intensiteten i sången. Den är felfri och går rätt ofta i mina hörlurar nuför tiden.




Översättning av texten till engelska:

Woo ~ Woo ~

Devouring the mornings and spitting out the nights
My nature is doubtful
This feeling that boils up inside of me
Is it white or black

The future that I aim for and the past that I left behind
Twisting together, round and round
They’re connected

Squinting my eyes at the helixes passing by
I leaned forward from my strange dream

Two sides of the same coin The coin that I flipped flies into the sky
Just which ending will I wish for
Two sides of the same coin The brighter the light, the darker the shadow
If that’s so, then where will I go
The two futures came together

Woo ~ Woo ~

The inevitable masquerading as a coincidence
The divergent paths that come together
The shadow that follows me
Everywhere, forever
Will I take it in or illuminate it
Resist it or forgive it all

Light and darkness
Love and hate
They’re all powerful emotions with the same roots
Reach out a hand to the ends of my memory
And quietly invite me to go where you are

Two sides of the same coin I learned that everything is fated to eventually disappear
So I’ll never let go of this hand
Even the prosperous must decay The pale pink impulses are dyed red
Breaking out of the chains and awakening now
I’ll see a definite world

Caught between yin and yang
I’m just listening to the beat
May the dots and lines connect
A requiem for the lost days

Two sides of the same coin The coin that I flipped flies into the sky
Just which ending will I wish for
Two sides of the same coin The brighter the light, the darker the shadow
I won’t avert my eyes from even the indelible past

Focusing my gaze on the helixes dying away
The light and shadow intersected in a moment’s flicker
Binding the time just like this
The two futures came together
