1st Opening for Nagi no Asukara (A Lull in the Sea)

Hear the sound, the calling deep, its voice reaches me

Glancing back, you see my face within a breeze (within a breeze…)

The times we laughed, the fun we had, I'll hold them with all my might!

Please don't ever leave (ooo ooo), stay by my side (ooo ooo)

Keep running forward, but always look back

To when that class was ours (when that class was ours)

I hope we'll never change, we won't grow apart…

Why don't you look at the sea to find just how far we can reach?

Out of the blue, within the deep

Just take a chance, go for that leap!

Although you say that you're fine, there's something out of my reach that's hidden in your eyes

I wonder what you're trying to keep inside...

*

The gentle lull of ocean waves gives a fond embrace
Our hearts will beat to close the distance in-between
Your feelings grow, I want to know if you and I feel the same
But how do I say: "I like you that way?"

Bubbles beneath are rising to greet the glowing sun above
And now our dreams are starting to fade, without a trace...

Right now I don't want to change,
'cause that would make everything strange
The water's image is so bright;
I'll keep them safe and save their light!

Now and forever it's clear,
The words are leaving my lips; I think that you won't hear
The twilight's dark is like an eclipse...

*

If you climb the hill, you'll see the ocean sparkling
Shining in the light, the water's brightly shimmering
Washing ashore, I'm swept away, by the calm of the bay
And I think I finally have the strength to say...

Now let us look at the sea, our future's closer than it seems
Out of the blue, within the deep, I'm glad we had the chance to meet!
And if I see you again,
Your radiant smile will call to me without an end
I'll dive on in, so I can take your hand!

1st Ending for Nagi no Asukara

*Updated on May 25th, 2019

The ocean fills my lonely heart,
my tears and scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads, 

safe and warm inside...

*

Can you recall the last time we opened up our eyes
to the glowing world above?
We waited for years, our tears reflected in the stars,
just the two of us

In this aquarium, everything is safe,
but they don't that our home's a gilded cage...

The ocean fills my lonely heart,
I see the scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads

Although you're trapped,
know I'll watch from afar,
protect you from all harm
Until your dreams and wishes can come true,
you know I'll always wait for you...

*

Adrift within paradise, a deafening silence falls,
through which I can't hear your calls
I wish that what happened did not turn out this way,
but now it's too late

When my eyes rest on you, everything is clear
Transfixed by you, now all else just disappears...

Why can't I reach your lonely heart?
It feels so close yet far away
The bridge of sand is slow to fade but still exists
within the lull of the waves

When you're asleep you seem the most at peace,
and I am put at ease
The moonlight shines from high up in the sky,
and it reflects inside my eyes

*

One day you'll begin to wake,
your cocoon will start to break
And you'll wonder if the life you're living's real or fake
But I promise the lullaby I'm sending you comes straight from my heart,
My wish that we will never part...

The ocean fills my lonely heart,
my tears and scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads

Even if you're trapped, I'll watch from afar,
and protect you from all harm
Until your dreams and wishes can come true,
just know I'll always wait for you...
