Yaho! I realise i have been faithfully updating my blog recently haha. Feel uneasy if i dun update haha.
Anyway, i really like this song "翼を下さい" sung by Hirahara Ayaka, the soundtrack from the drama Orthros no Inu (woohoo!!). It is a cover of an old Japanese song that my sis and her band sung at one of their concerts when she was in secondary school.
I still remember going for that concert and some of the sec 4s (including my sis) even stood on the ledge of the pipe organ at the Victoria Concert Hall while singing!! Probably because my band had always played at VCH too, but we never got a chance to even go NEAR the pipe organ LOL so that concert really remained etched in my mind :)
Here are the lyrics to the song! First in kanji, then romaji for those who want to learn how to sing and then lastly in english for those who don't understand!
今 私の願いごとが
叶うならば 翼がほしい
この背中に 鳥のように
白い翼つけて下さい
この大空に 翼を広げ
飛んで行きたいよ
悲しみのない 自由な空へ
翼はためかせ 行きたい
子供の時 夢見たこと
今も同じ 夢に見ている
この大空に 翼を広げ
飛んで行きたいよ
悲しみのない 自由な空へ
翼はためかせ
この大空に 翼を広げ
飛んで行きたいよ
悲しみのない 自由な空へ
翼はためかせ 行きたい
Ima watashi no negaigoto ga kanau naraba
Tsubasa ga hoshii
Kono senaka ni tori no you ni
Shiroi tsubasa tsukete kudasai
Kono oozora ni tsubasa wo hiroge
Tonde ikitai yo
Kanashimi no nai jiyuu na sora he
Tsubasa hatamekase yukitai
Kodomo no toki yumemita koto
Ima mo onaji yume ni mite iru
Kono oozora ni tsubasa wo hiroge
Tonde yukitai yo
Kanashimi no nai jiyuu na sora he
Tsubasa hatamekase
Kono oozora ni tsubasa wo hiroge
Ton de ikitai yo
Kanashimi no nai jiyuu na sora he
Tsubasa hatamekase yukitai
If I can get one wish
To come true right now, I want a pair of wings
Please grant me white wings
On my back like a bird
In this huge sky
I wanna spread my wings and fly
Towards the free sky with no sadness
I wanna flap my wings and soar
I have no need for wealth or fame
All I want now is a set of wings
I still dream of those things
That I've dreamed about when I was little
In this huge sky
I wanna spread my wings and fly
Towards the free sky with no sadness
I wanna flap my wings and soar
