Megumi Hayashibara Cruel Angel's Thesis (A.D. 2001) Lyrics

zankoku na tenshi no you ni
shounen yo shinwa ni nare

aoi kaze ga ima
mune no DOA wo tataite mo
watashi dake wo tada mitsumete
hohoenderu anata

sotto fureru mono
motomeru koto ni muchuu de
unmei sae mada shiranai
itaike na hitomi

dakedo itsuka kidzuku deshou
sono senaka ni wa
haruka mirai mezasu tame no
hane ga aru koto

zankoku na tenshi no TEZE
madobe kara yagate tobitatsu
hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de
omoide wo uragiru nara
kono sora wo daite kagayaku
shounen yo shinwa ni nare

zutto nemutteru
watashi no ai no yurikago
anata dake ga yume no shisha ni
yobareru asa ga kuru

hosoi kubisuji wo
tsukiakari ga utsushiteru
sekaijuu no toki wo tomete
tojikometai kedo

moshimo futari aeta koto ni
imi ga aru nara
watashi wa sou jiyuu wo shiru
tame no BAIBURU

zankoku na tenshi no TEZE
kanashimi ga soshite hajimaru
dakishimeta inochi no katachi
sono yume ni mezameta toki
dare yori mo hikari wo hanatsu
shounen yo shinwa ni nare

hito wa ai wo tsumugi nagara
rekishi wo tsukuru
megami nante narenai mama
watashi wa ikiru

zankoku na tenshi no TEZE
madobe kara yagate tobitatsu
hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de
omoide wo uragiru nara
kono sora wo daite kagayaku
shounen yo shinwa ni nare

English Translation
Like a cruel angel,
young boy, become the legend! [2]
[Short Instrumental Intro]
A blue wind is now
knocking at the door to your heart, and yet
you are merely gazing at me
and smiling.
Something gently touching--
you're so intent on seeking it out,
that you can't even see your fate yet,
with such innocent eyes.
But someday I think you'll find out
that what's on your back
are wings that are for
heading for the far-off future.
The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos, [3]
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky [universe] and shining, [4]
young boy, become the legend!
Sleeping for a long time
in the cradle of my love
The morning is coming when you alone will be called
by a messenger of dreams.
Moonlight reflects off
the nape of your slender neck.
Stopping time all throughout the world
I want to confine them, but...
So if two people being brought together by fate
has any meaning, [6]
I think that it is a "bible"
for learning freedom. [7]
The cruel angel's thesis.
The sorrow then begins.
You held tight to the form of life
when you woke up from that dream.
You shine brighter than anyone else.
Young boy, become the legend!
People create history
while weaving love.
Even knowing I'll never be a goddess or anything like that,
I live on.
The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos,
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky and shining,
young boy, become the legend!

Así como un despiadado ángel
joven Mesías llega a ser leyenda...

Ahora el viento azul
golpea la puerta de tu corazón
solamente estás contemplándome así
con esa sonrisa cándida.

Algo entermecedor
es lo que tu buscas con obsecación
y no puedes ver tu destino así
con ojos tan inocentes.

Yo creo que algún día podrás
darte cuenta que en tu espalda
llevas las alas que rumbo al lejano
futuro te llevarán.

La premisa del despiadado ángel
a través del portal de tu alma volará
si por sólo un instante de tibio dolor
al templo de tus recuerdos traicionaras
Abrazando este cielo resplandecerás
joven Mesías llega a ser leyenda.

Por un tiempo inmemorial
durmiendo en la cuna de mi amor
la mañana vendrá si eres llamado
por el mensajero de sueños.

Puedes ver tu nuca brillar
la luna refleja en el cuello su luz
en el mundo entero, deteniendo el tiempo,
deseo encerrarlos, pero...

Si el destinado encuentro entre dos
personas tiene una razón
pienso que es una Biblia para
conocer lo que es libertad.

La premisa del despiadado ángel
tu tristeza debiera entonces empezar
aferrándote a esa forma de vivir
cuando de ese sueño despertaste
el que más brilla y con su luz propia, eres tú
joven Mesías llega a ser leyenda.

La historia es creada por las personas
que van tejiendo el amor
aunque jamás seré diosa o un ser divino
sé que viviré.
