Ninelie (From “Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress”)
English Lyrics by Tara St. Michel
Stars above, they ignite the lonely sky and connect us all
But your light’s fading away
Just a dream, washed away in tears of sorrow, like rain that has fallen
Forgotten, left to dry
I tire of sleepless nights
These questions asked, no end in sight
Each day repeats yet again
Will I awake now?
And once more I Cry and Dream,
Nothing’s ahead but mere ideals
Even if the city drowns full of joy amidst the noise
I will keep singing now as I let go of the reins
So then the silence can echo in the streets
Don’t be afraid, Daybreak has come
Don’t be afraid, Daybreak has come
