Vash's Song

[Kouji - Hikari no Shiro Okami]

So... you all who were in.... one of the plot threads (I can't remember which right offhand) probably remember Vash and Kurai sharing an old (presumably Lunatopian) folk song.

This is that song:



The song's title is "Sound Life", it's also called "Rem's Song" and is taken directly from Trigun. The direct translation is:

So... On the first night, a pebble falls to the earth from somewhere.

So... On the second night, the pebble's children hold hands and pen a waltz.

Sound life

So... On the third night, the children of the waltz cause ripples on the face of the world

So... On the fourth night, the children of the wave spray the shore.

Sound life

So... On the fifth night, those shards strike the face of the earth over and over.

So... On the sixth night, those signals bring travellers together.

Sound life

So... On the seventh night, a weightless ship races to the sky.

So... On the eighth morning, a song from somewhere reaches my ears.

Sound life

Well now... A song that has recorded everything echoes to the new sky.

Sound life
Sound life

And... y'know, you can just pretend she's singing in Ancient Ketulunan rather than Japanese or something, LOL ^^;;;

Kurai: Ahh... If it isn't my favorite little tune... *Wags finger in time to the beat*
