Lyrics
Listen – a vow carved into the wind
(聞け――風に刻まれた誓いを)
Cold seas of glass reflect a broken oath
(氷のごとき海は割れた誓いを映す)
I walk the quay where echoes keep their word
(反響が言葉を守る波止場を歩く)
Salt on lips, the horizon a thin seam
(唇に塩、地平は薄い継ぎ目のようだ)
Hands calloused from holding maps of what must be
(為すべき道を示す地図を握り続けた指は荒れている)
Night lifts a veil of iron and salt
(夜は鉄と塩の帳を掲げる)
A lone beacon breathes in fractured blue
(孤独な灯台が砕けた青空に息を吹き込む)
The sentinel stands with fists unclenched
(番人は拳を緩めたまま立つ)
Bound not by chains but by a promise kept
(鎖に縛られてはいない、誓いを守ることに縛られている)
燃えろ、心よ、夜を裂いて進め
(Burn, O heart, rend the night and press forward)
光はここに、消えぬ誓いとともに
(The light is here, together with an undying vow)
Stand and hold the watch until the stars relent
(立て、星が屈するまで見張りを守れ)
海の彼方へ、我らの旗を掲げよ
(To the sea beyond, raise our banner)
Memories like anchors pull but do not drown
(記憶は碇のように引き寄せるが溺れはしない)
A chorus of gulls becomes a battle cry
(カモメの合唱が戦いの咆哮に変わる)
Forged in months of frost and whispered fear
(霜の幾月と囁かれる恐れの中で鍛えられた)
My voice becomes the iron that will not bend
(我が声は屈しない鉄と化す)
On the coldest dawn a filament ignites
(最も冷えた夜明けに細い光が灯る)
Threads of morning stitch the ragged shore
(朝の糸がぼろ切れのような岸を縫い合わせる)
We trade our silence for a rising chord
(沈黙を差し出し、立ち上がる和音を受け取る)
And every step reclaims a lost refrain
(そして一歩一歩が失われた旋律を取り戻す)
No retreat – only the narrow path ahead
(退くことはない―前方には狭い道があるだけ)
Each scar a ledger of what we defended
(刻まれた傷は我らが守ったものの記録である)
燃えろ、心よ、夜を裂いて進め
(Burn, O heart, rend the night and press forward)
光はここに、消えぬ誓いとともに
(The light is here, together with an undying vow)
Stand and hold the watch until the stars relent
(立て、星が屈するまで見張りを守れ)
海の彼方へ、我らの旗を掲げよ
(To the sea beyond, raise our banner)
Rise, Sentinel, carry flame on tired shoulders
(立ち上がれ、番人よ、疲れた肩に炎を担え)
失われし声を集め、明日へ手渡せ
(Gather the lost voices and hand them toward tomorrow)
Hold fast the line where darkness gathers close
(闇が迫るその線を堅く守れ)
この灯は消えず、誓いが行く限り
(This light will not die, so long as the vow endures)
A single lantern moves across the tide, steady
(一つの灯りが潮の流れに沿ってゆっくりと動く)
