Hikari no Senritsu English Ver. (Unfinished) + Audacity Edits

Westkana

HA! I live in her CLOSET!
Here's what I have so far of an English Version of Hikari no Senritsu, I have the first verse and 1/2 of a line of the chorus finished. I am using the english translation from CPM for the base (for the most part). Feel free to leave comments/questions/suggestions, as this is my first English transcription. The first paragraph break is where Hikaru's part ends and Wakana's part begins.

Hikaru Verse
The tune you dreamed of in this glum sky
Is its power reaching the depths of you heart?
Resounding for the end of the brawl
Yet it is too quiet to hear

Wakana Pre-chorus
And if your hands are far from
The dream that you love and cherish
Just recall that tender voice
You heard that day long ago
That trumpet sound all across the plain
It played the melody of the light
Breaking chains

Chorus
The sad sound of the sky resounds in our hearts
That dream of hope is torn apart
Yet you still are heard even through dead of night
Proving that this world is not just balck and white

I've made an English Version of the song, but mine is pretty different from the translation from this site. I've take from other YouTube channels that makes English Covers (Mostly LeeandLie) and try to make the english version different to the original, but still retaining the same sense of the original lyrics.

Here's my version:

None can escape the sound of the sky
But even, in the end, it was forgotten
All of your lies that halted your heart
Could have healed from the light of the sun

In your hands - holding wishes -
That seemed to be so far away
Your past remains its silence
You speak of it with pride
If you keep searching you could get a
kiss between the black and white of life
Let's go

Catch the notes falling from the sky
Use your hands to play trumpets over the wind
Cracking the darkness with your small happiness,
There could never be anything like this world
Your sadness seems to wash away with your tears
Flowing down into the river
Melodies of light shine onto tomorrow
Playing with the notes of my heart

In the legend that you once believed
It said "there was a sound that nobody could here"
But it was wrong as everyone could
Hear it echoing in their chests

If you wish for happiness,
Maybe fate will give you a kiss
And maybe your sadness will
Disappear into the sky
Your tears will become the rain that falls
But in the end, all I'll hear is your
Melody of light

Smile and dance 'round with me
With the beat of your song of love always ringing
If we follow the sky,
We'll reach the melody
Shining as the light through the storm and onto us

(And onto us... I never realised that you were here...)

Back when I used to cry alone,
I never realised that your hand used to cover mine
Without you now, I call out to you through the fields
I wonder, will it reach the sky?
Will it get to your ears?

I'm without you now, the only thing
Ringing in my ears in your quiet heartbeat
I didn't want this, to be alone
Now I dream only of your tune

Catch the notes falling from the sky
Use your hands to play trumpets over the wind
Only here and now, can you hear my story
We can now laugh, live and cry without worries
If hope could be your guardian, it'd be me
I'll guard your kindness and your dreams
Melodies of us shine onto tomorrow
Plucking with the notes of my heart

Finally, you're realised that you're worth the risk
You're gonna live eternally
I don't care if you
Could think any different
In my heart, I know that you're thinking the same
Your song "hope" is a happy one
Stop crying and sing it with your loudest voice
And I'll keep dreaming of the last tomorrow
Where our tune has reached everyone
 
Sugoi! The way you put the verses together make them sound like the same song, but the instrumental for the chorus was a little off tempo. Otherwise, great!
