Haruna Luna - 空は高く風は歌う Sora wa takaku Kaze wa utau

The sky is high, the wind will sing. This is the ending song for Fate/Zero season 2. As with all the Fate/Zero songs so far, the lyrics touches on sadness and a journey to change things.
 With the episode that just aired, we got a glimpse (ok maybe not, it WAS a full episode) of kiritsugu's past. We found out what made him the way he is now and that he was a kind little boy before the incident happened. With that, his whole perspective of the world and the people that lived in it changed. Yet, he still wants to save the world albeit in a more drastic way abandoning the pretty things like "chivalry" and "playing fair".

どうして空はこんなに青くて
何も悲しみを知らぬように
いつも躊躇わず明日へと崩れ落ちる

 いのちは足りないまま生まれて来るのね
痛みが満たすものもあるのね
欠け落ちた心に貴方が触れて

 二人で行く未来は
穢れのない強さで

空は高く風は歌う
夢を見てた
歓びへと
人はいつか辿り着ける
子供の瞳で貴方は信じた
側にいるよ
凍り付いた森を抜けて
その瞳が世界の嘆きに
迷わぬように

どうして届かない光だけが
いつも何よりも眩しい正しさで
叶わない明日へと人を裁く

冷たい背中にそっと触れてみた
世界の優しさを信じない人だから
誰よりも優しかった

生きていたよ未来へ
空に風を残して

夢はどこに眠るのだろう
いつか誰もいなくなった
この岸辺に寄せて返す
光の欠片になれると信じた
闇に還る想いたちが
燃え尽きてく
その灯りを標に
世界はまた夢を見る

空は高く風は歌う
貴方が見た夢の記憶
その叫びが
優しい木霊を
返しているよ

doushite sora wa konna ni aokute
nani mo kanashimi wo shiranu you ni

inochi wa tarinai mama umarete kuru no ne
itami ga mitasu mono mo aru no ne
kake ochita kokoro ni anata ga furete

Why is the sky so blue
as if it knows no sadness
It always crumbles into tomorrow without hesitation

Lives are incomplete when given birth into this world
and there are those who fill it with pain
but you touched my fragmenting heart

The future that the two of us seek
requires pure strength

The sky is high, the wind will sing
We had a dream
towards happiness
Some day people will achieve it
You believed it with child-like eyes
I'm always here for you
Run from the frozen forest
lest those eyes waver
with the sight of the world's lamentation

Why is it always the unreachable light
that is so glaringly righteous
judging people towards an unfulfilled tomorrow

I tried to softly touch your cold back
You were a person who didn't believe in the kindness of this world
and that is why you are kinder than everyone else

We lived our lives for a future
so leave the winds in the heavens

Where does a dream sleep?
when a day comes that everyone is gone
You can return to my shore
You believed that we will become fragments of light
Our thoughts burn themselves out
as they return to darkness
Using this light as a signal
the world dreams again

The sky is high, the wind will sing
The memory of the dream you had
That scream
is coming back
as a gentle echo
