Anime Rurouni Kenshin -Meiji Kenkaku Roman Tan- opening theme
Wandering Katashiro
Lyrics: Atsushi Yanaka
Composition: Tsuyoshi Kawakami
Arrangement: TOKYO SKA PARADISE ORCHESTRA
Hold your breath and stand ready
Kick off a new era
The view the cowering lonely souls looked out over
was the same in all directions, a sea of night
I'll resist unreasonable power with my heart
I must be strong, or this fleeting life will be a sad one
The way of the wanderer
is that of a substitute katashiro
A strong love of never forgiving myself
has made me draw a reverse-blade
Without killing others, cut the darkness of carnage
Scream until you sever the chains of hatred
Kindness gets in the way and we're unable to lean on others
And that's why the two of us could understand one another
I'll offer myself
to the flower blooming afar
Do you wish to end this without even putting up futile resistance?
Fight in desperation
In the sorrow swallowing you up
just throw out everything and fight against
A path's interposed between the back and front
That's our reality
Even if it's not me who is breaking free
I'll breathe new life into this world
Roar
Live with hope
Keep on
Scream
The sea of night gives birth to life
* A katashiro is a kind of paper doll used as a substitution for someone. I've left it as is, but more information about it can be found here.
