Lyrics
膝を付き手を合わせ 彼女は何を祈ったのだろう･･････
風が止まって 鳥は惑い大地へ墜ち逝き
腐された侭に 海は凪いで静かに朽ちた
旅立ちの鐘が 闇の中で幽かに響けば
災厄の痕で 希望と出逢い風が生まれた
今は弱い微風でも 広い世界を廻り
やがては 強く 大きな 風車を廻す
この身をかけて 見届けたい この風の行方を･･････
風が止まって 人は嘆き 羊を探して
欲望の侭に 弱者を屠り 静かに堕ちた
黄昏の刻が 焔を別ち 夜毎に責めても
絶望の果てに 勇者は立ちて 風を宿した
怖れに膝が震えても 揺れる世界を廻り
やがては 強く 大きな 運命を廻す
全てをかけて 追い駈けたい この風の行方を･･････
貴方と出逢えて･･･本当に･･･本当に良かった
私は今･･･心から･･･心からそう思います
独りだった私に 大切な仲間が出来ました
一人では困難な使命も 彼等とならばきっと･･････
闇を纏い微睡む 水晶の煌めきに
やがては強く もっと強く 祈りを捧ぐ

What did she, kneeling down with hands together, pray for?
The wind comes to a stop, and the birds are bewildered, falling to their deaths
The rotten ocean calms, perishing in silence
When the bell of journeys tolls lightly within the darkness
I met hope[you] at the scar left behind by the catastrophe, and wind was born
Though but a slight breeze now, it will traverse the wide world
And eventually set into motion a strong and immense windmill
At the risk of myself, I want to see with my own eyes the whereabouts of this wind...
The wind comes to a stop, and people lament, searching for sacrificial lambs
Slaughtering weak ones as they desire, they decline in silence
Even if dusk separates flames and brings torment night by night
The hero[you] stood at the edge of despair, and harbored wind within
Though your knees may shake in fear, you will traverse the wavering world
And eventually set into motion a strong and immense fate
At the risk of everything, I want to chase after the whereabouts of this wind...
I’m really...really glad...that I met you...
That’s what I think...from the deepest...deepest parts of my heart...
Though I was alone and by myself, I found precious friends
Even if I have a purpose too difficult to fulfill alone, I’m sure I can manage with them-
Before the sparkles of the crystal slumbering in a cloak of darkness
I will eventually offer up a prayer, stronger and more powerful than before
And the whereabouts of that wind, unbeknownst to all...
