I to AI (アイ to アイ)

Originally Sung by Minori Suzuki
Official Audition Song for the 2025 Macross Diva Audition

A/N: since we all have no idea what the Macross 2026 series is gonna look like yet, I'm just gonna guess the vibes for these lyrics 😂 I'll change them later if I'm wrong.

Take this song from my heart...
And fly!
Go high!

*

The heat is rising up, take aim and fire
Your destiny is yours, so go and seize it with your hands,
Don't you give up, give up, come on!

Mouth to mouth, we're bonded tightly 
Face to face, I see you clearly
Take my song of love, and fly!

I love you, so love me too,
my singing voice will guide you through
The power I hold is selfish, born from all my deep desires!
I can't stop and I won't stop,
my feelings are the truth,
and so I'll sing this song 'til the end of time
I'll keep burning more so I'll feel alive

Take this song of mine and fly!

I Love You (Aishiteru)

Insert Song from Macross Delta: Zettai Live!!!!!!
Originally Sung by Minori Suzuki as Freyja Wion

When you're here, I know
that I love you so...

I can't forget the time I first met you
Seeing your face, feeling your gaze, nothing would be quite the same
And when you said you liked me, my heart was aflutter
I couldn't sleep, the look in your eyes pulled me under...

Now one by one, all the memories we shared
crystallize into jewels that I can wear
The care and kindness you gifted to me
made me special and different, I can't forget it!

Oh, I love you so, yes I love you so,
Even if one day we would both be reborn --
How I love you so, oh I love you so
-- I am sure I would fall for you once more!
Deep in my heart, certain and true, I dedicate my song to you~

***

The sunset on the ocean was dazzling,
walking ahead, hand-in-hand, was a couple's silhouette.
The white sand reminds me of snow in the winter,
Seasons will go, changing the times, 'til the rains come in summer

And just as seeds grow into big apple trees,
that cycle continues forever; it's bittersweet
In similar ways, all the tears shed today
surely will turn into happiness, I'm certain this is fate!

(Hah ah~, Hah ah~)
It will be okay~
(hah ah~)

***

See how the sky is high, see how the stars share their light...
Oceans are azure blue, flowers a pure hue,
And I can sense that the wind lives on in you!

How I love you so, yes I love you so
Even if my voice can't go on anymore –
Oh, I love you so, yes I love you so
– you're the only one in the world I adore!

Sending this song, certain and true...
Shoot through the stars, and the galaxies too...
Burn through my time, short and so bright,
I dedicate my song to your life!

Yes, I love you so, how I love you so...
Oh, I love you so, yes, I love you so...

I love you so... 

[A/N: could be sung in the same way as it is in "Ai Oboete Imasuka". The starting note for "I" is the same as the ending note for "so" from the previous line.]

God Bless You [ TV ver. ]

[Short Ver.]

Gently as I can, I close my eyes

Holding onto just one wish of mine

I don't have the words, but even so, still I believe them

I can feel your chest go up and down

Locking it away in my memories

So I can't forget and I won't forget

what I am feeling...

My heart is strong and overflowing (overflowing)

but every time it does, somehow I feel like crying (every time)

Now I know it's fate, that I met you on that day...

(Haa~) I want you to stay!

(God bless you!)

Oh, the time that we met, all the winds were brightly shining,

And now we're here, with our souls laid bare,

The passion within will explode and combine!

(God bless you!)

Is it possible to think that our meeting here was destined? 

You were there for me when I needed you,

I'm hoping someday I'll be there for you, too...

'cause I love you! 

Bokura no Senjou (Our Battlefield)

Originally Sung by Walküre

Insert Song for Macross Δ

If you can find a way to glimpse that tiny speck within the sky
If you can hear my shaking voice that reaches over you, so high
Then you should follow me and fly until your soul begins to sing
Using eternal wings you crafted from your torn memories!

Everything we talked about on that day
When you laughed at anything I would say
[breath] Until those days return, I'll let my passions burn!

Destroy it all, and more, and feel my heart as it soars
Are you there? Are you there to guide me through the storm?
On this battlefield, our lives will bloom

It'll bloom through the gloom!

But if we maim and kill, we're sure to perish in the end
So go, like wind, like Valkyries we'll send
a hidden miracle for all!
Into the sky, we'll raise a call...

*

Among the indescribable sensations flying all about
You know you're risking it all, you might just lose your truest self
Even if bullets from our doubts will start to fire and seek us out
I know we'll win if you admit that sometimes weakness pins you down

On that day, if you hadn't been yourself
On that day, if I hadn't been myself
Then we'd have never come to learn just how it feels to burn!

Cut through it all, we're close! Now justice is on its way!
Run on, even if your embers start to fade
Abandon all your reason; live for me, let me hear your heartbeat!

Now you'll break free of the bonds that tie you onto the ground!
Stay here, stay inside this galaxy we'll share
The two of us could outshine the stars,
we're burning brighter than the sun!

*

Everyone who wants to live will carry on, although their leaders are gone,

They'll grab at anything that could save them from their fall

But I don't want to stay alive, to just survive until I die

So I'll let my grievances go, I'll let my blood flow

It's the proof

(my proof)

Our proof

as sharp as an arrow!

*

Destroy it all, and more! Now feel my heart as it soars
Are you there? Will you guide me on through the storm?
On this battlefield, our lives will bloom

They will bloom through the gloom!

And since we maim and kill, I'm sure we'll perish in the end
So go, like wind, like Valkyries we'll send
a hidden miracle out for all!
Into the sky, we'll raise a call...

Hametsu no Junjou (Destructive Purity)

Originally Sung by Walkure

2nd Ending for Macross Delta

Standing on~ the broken and torn-up wreckage of my life
I've forgotten how I have survived and can't remember why
Standing on~ the sizzling flames that are threatening my life
searching for a sign, but still I fail to find the reason why

So break it, erase it, the ecstasy of our past life
And even if we lose it all, the future is in our grasp

["I'll go now."]

Reach~ the limit of love forever,
we'll sing in agony together
Our souls entwine, slowly we'll combine, yeah!
Then, if our~ screams can ring out
seething with life that's always around
What will lie beyond...
Destructive purity!

*

Through it all, a mad~ness in my mind will start to rise
I've forgotten when it stole my life, and can't remember why
Through it all, an urgent speed that I just can't deny
will not let me cry, won't let me rest, though it won't tell me why

We'll roar loud, we'll burst out, emotions standing so proud
Reality is always bad, but still, we'll choose ourselves!

["I'll fly now."]

Past~ the signs of love forever
We'll dance crazy, all together
Our souls align, reaching critical mass, yeah!
Then, if our~ legs can move on
Soaring~ to the sky that's above
What will lie beyond...
Destructive purity!

Purity!
Purity!!
Purity!!!
Purity!!!!
Purity!!!!!

*

Attain it, then starve it, we move on for oursurvival
and if you want to save my soul, get ready to enter Hell!

["I love you."]

Hoping this is the last 'Game Over'
though we lost it all, we'll have each other
Your soul and mine, sever chaos's ties, yeah!
Then if our time could turn back
revert to the days that faded to black
What will lie beyond...
Feverish emotions!

Reach~ the limits of love forever
we'll sing in agony together
Our souls combine, bloom, then wither and die, yeah!
Then if our screams still ring out
seething with life that's always around
What will lie beyond,
Destructive purity!

*

Ah, you're only a baby!
But even so, I'll help it grow
The chaos within your soul!

Ichido Dake no Koi Nara (If It's a Once-in-a-Lifetime Love)

Originally Sung by Walküre

1st Opening and Insert Song for Macross Δ

If it's a love that makes you feel like new,
Then we should play around until we're through
Oh, can I share a selfish kiss with you?

*

The petals of a flower dance so freely in the air
The starry skies late at night are shining oh so clear
And even if I fight to hide the tears and blame you for being here
I'll keep my feelings secret - in my heart, I'll hold them dear!

(Send it out...) Until the morning light 
(Send it out...) Until it's taking flight
('Till the end..) I'll send it through my heart 
(Of all time...) a prayer bright as a star

Follow my beliefs and follow all my feelings, 
send it out to you with a Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!

If it's a love that makes you feel like new,
Then we should play around until we're through

Oh, can we share a kiss that's faster than the light, into the night?
Now leave your body here upon the earth,
And hear your heartbeat finally bursting forth
So we can go beyond the boundaries that have kept us from this dream
Steal me far away! Fly away!
Into the day...

*

At last, I see the lightning streaking fast across the sky
So now, the passion of my heart will burn from deep inside!
And I'll be made aware: my body and my mind are finally synchronized
Although I feel uneasy in a way I can't deny

(Both of us...) We found each other here
(Both of us..) Searching far and near
(In the dark...) The vibrancy of life
(It will shine...) Blooming at all times

As though it's bursting, suddenly flashing,
shooting through my heart with a Bang! Bang! Bang!

If it's a dream that won't appear again, 
then we should dance in violent passion
We'll keep on moving as I'm held in your embrace, wider than space!
Instead of putting on a show of strength, 
instead of words that sweetly fill this place
Why don't you throw away the past and live with me without restraint?
Come and steal my heart! Tie me up!
Tear me apart...

*

Can you let that impulse grow some more, don't let it fade from here
Catch me alone!
Going faster than anyone's gone before!

If it's a love that makes you feel like new,
Then we should play around until we're through

Oh, can we share a kiss that's faster than the light, into the night?
Now leave your body here upon the earth,
And hear your heartbeat finally bursting forth
So we can go beyond the boundaries that have kept us from this dream
Steal me far away! Fly away!

If it's a dream that won't appear again, 
then we should dance in violent passion
We'll keep on moving as I'm held in your embrace, wider than space!
Instead of putting on a show of strength, 
instead of words that sweetly fill this place
Why don't you throw away the past and live with me without restraint?
Come and steal my heart! Tie me up!
Tear me apart...

Ikenai Borderline (Forbidden Borderline)

Originally Sung by Walküre

Insert Song for Macross Δ

Within a single glance, I fall in love
as though a call was sent from high above
And so I'll chase you down, I wanna know more and more and more and more ...

The more I know; the mysteries unfold
The more I think; the higher the fever goes
And now I'm falling deeply, so I'll take a dive into your world, ah!

Oh, is it love? Or just a dream? I bet that's how all the people think
But if you hide away, I won't hear what you say!

Look into my eyes, do you see the borderline?
Even if it's difficult, still I'll break free of that hold!
Dancing in the dark, now I'm gonna strike a spark
Melting into your heart, oh I can't control myself anymore!
Love is a game of war...

*

Without my friends to keep me on the ground,
And since you're here, I'll start to fool around
until I'm shining brighter than the galaxy inside your heart

The more I shine, the more the shadows grow
The more I burn, the more the ashes glow
And now I'm running faster to the line that joins the sea and the sky, ah!

A wish for peace is so naive, it won't come true 'til we all believe
If you want to be free, you gotta fight for that dream!

Loving at the edge, wild and border-less
Even as I'm racing past, still I feel it doesn't make any sense!
Dancing all around, breaching the limit's sound
Cycling without an end, turning all of life into despair
This is who I am...

*

Look into my eyes, do you see a borderline?

Even if it's difficult, still I'll break free of its hold!

Dancing in the dark, now I'm gonna strike a spark

Melting into your heart, oh I can't control myself anymore!

Love is a game of war...

Look into my eyes, do you see my borderline?
Even as I'm burning out, still I'll let my voice scream and shout
Dancing in the dark, all to save your precious heart
All to save the world below, let me shatter everything I know

Only through my love for you,
will I be reborn
Hoping that your love is true,
and it's not a falsehood...

Rune ga Pikatto Hikattara (When My Rune Sparkles)

1st Ending for Macross Δ

[Are you ready for me?]

*

Heard a person spreading a rumour today, 
"Betcha soon, the world will end," they say
I have never heard a bigger lie, there's no way!

In a flash, I turned my eyes to the sky
Feeling like our future was ready to fly
And the wind you made was helping it soar high

Finally, I've found a place;
I can be me with a smile on my face
I'm gonna do it, I've got no choice, 
I can't stop my voice!

[You better be prepared!]

When it shines, my rune sparkles so bright!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
When it does, I'll fall in love at first sight!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
Pa-ri-ru Pa-ri-ra, I'm gonna blame it on you!
Pa-ri-ra, no one can stop me because of my rune!

*

Knowing there are people who cry in pain,
but you yawn and always avert the blame
That's no good! Oh, why would you let them suffer in vain?

In an instant, I can feel you glide,
Wavering the atmosphere as you fly
So I sing, letting my voice reach the sky

Living my life, I've got no time
15 more years will soon pass by
I'll seize the moment, and make you mine
I'm gonna let it shine! 

[Rune-Pika beam!]

When it shines, my rune sparkles so bright!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
When it does, you'll surely fly so high!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
Ta-ri-ru, Taa-ri-ra, you are the love of my heart!
Ta-ri-ra, I know they'll never keep us apart!

*

When it shines, my rune sparkles so bright!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
Now the world will fall in love at first sight!
Wow wow! Wow wow wow!
Pa-ri-ru Pa-ri-ra, I made this wind for you
Pa-ri-ra, I'm shining brightly because of my rune!

No matter what, you will always be my love!
No matter where, I'll prove I'm unstoppable!

[Whoa whoa whoa whoa, fuu~!]

Dancing in the moonlight!
Dancing in the moonlight!

You'll only have this one life
so don't you dare regret it! 

No second chance to try,
Never! (Never!)
The tomorrow that you can't see, I feel it calling to me
Don't give up so easily!

Come on now, look at me! (Look at me!)
Everything is all right? (Everything is all right?)
There's no need to be afraid, so

let your inhibitions go!
On my cheek, oh can you kiss me now?

Dancing in the moonlight!
Together we can play this music (Ah ah ha ha~)
In this galaxy, and this melody
as one we'll keep on dancing
So you better be prepared! (Are you ready?)

Dancing in the moonlight!
We'll light a spark up in the night (Ah ah ha ha~)
It's shining bright, for all of time
We'll let it ring, our voices sing, 
forevermore, hear it echo!

[Whoa whoa whoa whoa, fuu~!]

[Now, I'm sure I'll meet you under the moon today
But I still don't have a clue on what to say!
I want, I want to see you
And I hope that you're dancing to the same tune!

「Singing is a Mystery!」
「Singing is Energy!」
「Singing is Life!」
「Singing is Love!」
「Singing is Hope!」

Right, do you think it's okay?
Just about~
Everybody, let's go~!]

To the sleepless nights, we can say goodbye
(Hold me tight, can you hold me ever tighter?)
Can I meet you once again in my dream?
I'll just fall in love~

*

Take me far away from this place, to the outer reaches of space
Now take me further and
Don't stop! (Don't stop!)
All the passion deep inside me, I'll deliver to you swiftly
Do you feel them, oh my darling?

Once again, call my name! (Call my name!)
Do you love me, baby? (Do you love me baby?)
You'll be moving to this rhythm, and the stars you'll grab a handful
Now it will be always wonderful,
Wow-wow-wonderful!

Dancing in the moonlight!
[The light of the moon... do you feel it?]
Dancing in the moonlight!
[And this rhythm...]
No, you can't stop the mu-siiiiiic!

Dancing in the moonlight!
Together we can play this music (Ah ah ha ha~)
In this galaxy, and this melody
as one, we'll keep on dancing
So you better be prepared! (Are you ready?)

Dancing in the moonlight!
We'll light a spark up in the night (Ah ah ha ha~)
It's shining bright, for all of time
We'll let it ring, our voices sing, 
forevermore, hear it echo!

Always... Yeah~!

Even if someday the universe will reach its end,
I'll keep on dancing until I'm dead!
Ah!
[Ride on... 3, 2, 1!]

Stars, and humans, even apples and more, are all the same
whether they're made of dust or particles from space
(Pa Shuwappu Shuwashu Yeah!)

The world is governed by the rhythm of life,
(Pa pa pa pa pa! Pa pa pa pa pa!)
so if we were to go astray, I'm sure there's gonna be a surprise! (That's right!)

When we fall in love, you will feel a change
The wind will rise, and the fizzing's so strange
Joining our hands, can't you feel it? The pulsing heat?
Dance to the beat!

In my soul, it's finally waking
The Cosmic Movement's so unsteady!
If I'm with you, I'm sure I can break through the phase of the waves
And so we'll try - move a bit - to the right -

I'd give it all to be free!

In a single moment of bliss, now the world is syncing to our kiss
Boom Boom, Boom Boom Space!

*

Although we may exist in all sorts of shapes
(Pa pa pa pa pa! Pa pa pa pa pa!)
I'm hoping that the world will say: "What's the difference, we all are still the same!" (Oh yay!)

If we fall in love, you'll feel a certain way
The sound of the rain, and the rolling of waves
Raising our hands, we'll increase our body heat...
Dance to the beat!

Through our souls and so intensely,
the music sings a cosmic melody
Letting the wind reverberate as the bridge in this space
So if we fly - one more inch - to the right - surely our world will change

With a single drop of a tear, now the world is syncing with a cheer:
Boom Boom, Boom Boom Space!

*

[Are you okay?
Yeah! 3, 2, 1!
Ride on, ride on
Cosmic ☆]

Flowing so fast from within my body, that feeling will evaporate quickly
Letting the spark of life take hold your heart and also your mind..

Freeing ourselves from the bounds of gravity,
the Cosmic Movement's so unsteady!
If I'm with you, I'm sure I can break through the phase of the waves
So we should try - move a bit - to the right - I'd give it all to be free!

In a single moment of bliss, now the world is syncing to our kiss
Boom Boom, Boom Boom Space!
Boom Boom, Boom Boom Space!

Welcome to Walküre World...
Welcome!
My heart... feels your love
Welcome to Walküre World...

Passionately screaming, there's no more slowing down
"S.O.S!" the siren's blaring out
Love's halation and war!

My life has begun once I awaken to the dawn (my own story)
It's not the same, there's something strange, I feel it there
It finally has changed!
I'm ready to fly, three, two, one!
My dress will flutter, and I am soaring
Within my heart, my engine is turning on

When you bump into me, I'll feel a galactic beat, and it's so deculture!
Lighting your heart in a flash, now the thrusters will burn

Suddenly diving, there's no more turning back!
"S.O.S!", a signal on the attack
Love's changing the world!

*

The kaleidoscope of colour blinds me,
a typhoon of feelings swee~ps me off my feet

Passionate screaming, there's no more slowing down

Love, love, melody of love...
Love, love, melody of love...
Love, love, melody of love...

All the stars in the sky are sending whispers of light
I hear their voices saying "feel your love..."
Now the days are dazzling me and my boring life no longer repeats;

my soul is glowing and it's turning sweet

Though the chances were more than slim, still you met me here, and it's so deculture!
I can't stop anymore, now the fires will burn!

Floating so high up, this love's more than a dream
"S.O.S!" the panorama will gleam
Love's shaking the wind!

*

Everything is a cosmic wonderland
In spite of ordinary things we do
(Shining bright in a radiant hue)
If I'd known your power from the start
could light a fire in my heart;
a joy that's all for me...

Passionately screaming, there's no more slowing down
"S.O.S!" my love is singing out,
a halation and war!

*

Surely there'll be more,
More and hold me tight,
Tightly through the night,
Night and day, I'm sure

Surely there'll be more (Surely!)
More and hold me tight (Tightly!)
Tightly through the night (All night!)
Night and day, I'm sure

Surely there'll be more,
More and hold me tight,
Tightly through the night,
When I'm with you, I know I'll feel that spark of light...

AXIA ~Daisuki de Daikirai~ (Axia of Love and Hate)

Originally Sung by Kiyono Yasuno as Kaname Buccaneer

Insert Song for Macross Δ

You smile bright, a spark of light; 
although I fear it might be the last it will shine
And even though you're there with someone else, 
I'll cherish the moments when you're here by me, the ticking clock will set you free!

Within a world of cruelty, where lives mean next to nothing
Still, we met, against the odds of destiny... and now I see!

Pain swirling deeply, trapping my heart in their axia
You're soaring within the sky, as though in fever, your plane will glide
You show no mercy, though you are fading rapidly
I hate it when you're far away, though you know that, still, I love you so...

*

Into the world, we're born alone; 
and once we die, alone is the way we'll go
But nonetheless, we can't live on our own -- 
you know those feelings are so innate; our frequencies will resonate!

Despite the wounds we carry, our love transcends their boundaries!
Healing the scrapes and the bruises until our souls align, without a sign

Though tears are falling, they'll help to light up this axia
Our heartbeats connect as one, floating and wavering 'til it's gone
Just like an old dream, wrapped up within the hazy steam
It speaks of eternal days, and a freezing passion that will stay...

*

Although our lives are fleeting; for you, I'll keep on living
Sending a signal of love to you in a ray of light... oh please don't die!

Now that it's over, I won't remember you anymore
But I guess that's not the truth, since I could never forget you!

Pain swirling deeply, trapping my heart in their axia!
You're soaring within the sky, warped by a fever your plane will glide
Stealing my poor heart, piercing my soul with a nasty scar
You're driving me to despair, filling me with feelings I can't bear

(Knowing that this love of ours is doomed)
Through the burning hate, my love will bloom...
Though I hate you, still, my love is true...
