[REQ] Game OP: Into the Sky - Joe Rinoie

[Edutrix]

Requesting a translation of the song "Into the Sky" by Joe Rinoie from the game Kinki no Magna.

The translation alone would be great but if possible, I'd also like it to be romanized. The romanization is for crosscheck/learning purpose..

Thank you!

I got most of it but there were certain parts I cound't hear no matter how hard I tried.

Googling for lyrics turned up absolutely nothing. Besides the part I couldn't hear, one of the lines might have a different interpretation. Technically, the ashita might be ashita=tomorrow or ashita=morning, depending on the kanji.

無限の闇の中
二人手を繋いで
行く当てのない旅へ
足音だけがこだまして
凍えた胸に響く

mugen no yami no naka
futari te wo tsunaide
yuku ate no nai tabi e
ashioto dake ga kodamashite
kogoeta mune ni hibiku

Holding hands in the infinite darkness
the two of us set out on a journey with no destination
only our footsteps echo
and they resound in my frozen heart.

あしたから光指す世界へと
まっすぐな思い抱きしめて
変えてみせるよ、君と

ashita kara hikari sasu sekai eto
massugu na omoi dakishimete
kaete miseru yo, kimi to

Starting tomorrow, holding tightly to our earnest feelings
I'll turn the world into one that light shines into
with you

Ｉｎｔｏ　ｔｈｅ　ｓｋｙ
（あわれた？）静寂の中に君がいて
言葉（なんかなくて？）ふたりは(つってる?)

Into the sky
(awareta?)seijaku no naka ni kimi ga ite
kotoba (nanka nakute?) futari wa (tsutteru?)

Into the sky
you are in the silence (???)
[can't translate without the complete line]

Ｓｏ　ｈｏｌｄ　ｍｅ　ｔｉｇｈｔ
隠された真実を今解き明かそう
答えはこの手の先にある

So hold me tight
kakusareta shinjitsu wo ima tokiakasou
kotae wa kono te no saki ni aru

So hold me tight
Let's go shine light on the hidden truth
The answer is within our reach (lit. before=ahead of our hands).

君と二人で

kimi to futari de

together with you

[Edutrix]

That is perfect, thank you so much!

About the part that is barely audible, I think it'd go like this from my interpretation

awareta seijyaku no naka ni kimi ga ite
kotoba nanka nakute futari wa tsuiteru

In other words, it'd go somewhere along the line of

You appeared in the broken silence
Soundlessly, we're connected to each other.

Correct?

Correct?

Unfortunately, no.

Even if we assume that it is awareta, that would be the passive or the honorific of au (to meet or to match), which can't modify or describe kimi. I wanted it to be wareta, which would mean broken (in the sense of shattered), but I definitely hear too many syllables/mora for that, and if we believe the next line, then there's not much reason to think that the silence was broken somehow. To appear is arawareru, and the "ite" part doesn't connote "appearing". Also, that first line is in the same tense as the second line, which is in present tense.

And even if we assume that the second line does say tsuiteru (which I don't think it does, but I just can't figure out what's going on), then it wouldn't say anything about being connected, which is tsunagatte iru. futari wa tsuiteiru would mean "the two of (you/them) are with me", but the song doesn't establish that there are 3 people and seems to be working from the perspective that there are two, "kimi" and the singer.

This is why my head was exploding when I was trying to figure this part out. Usually the hard part is figuring out what English the singers think they're saying.

Maybe someone can get a native speaker to figure out what the words there are. I was very surprised that there were no websites with the lyrics.

[Edutrix]

The official site for the game itself doesn't have the lyrics and there isn't a full version/ CD of it. There isn't anything remotely like a transliterated lyrics from gaming site either.
On not-so-bright side, even native people who played the game have problems with the lyrics so there is that,

I tend to forgot the tense since I'm not an native English speaker but I can't believe I write it down wareta as awareta. Welp.

Digging/Asking around also got me this 割れた静寂の中に君がいて 言葉なんかなくてふたりはつうじてる / 現れた静寂の中に君がいて 言葉なんかなくて二人は通じてる

I wonder should I take this over to 'Lyrics Discussion' to get more options. Worst come to worst, I may need to choose a liberal translation that suits best to the theme. Haaah...

Thanks for the quick and useful response, though!
