When I saw that one of the musicians under Sacra Music was Kalafina, I knew I HAD to record a Kalafina song to audition for WACAVA. Kalafina is definitely one of my biggest inspirations as a singer, and as a musician/artist in general, so I wanted to really challenge myself to record this. It's one of my favourite Kalafina songs of all time, and I could never find an English cover, even over a decade later. I've been working on this on and off for THREE MONTHS because I really wanted to get it right hahaha, but I'm really happy with how it came out in the end! Of course, it isn't perfect (nothing ever is), but it's dang better than I expected it to turn out and I'm proud I managed to somehow pull this off. I hope I did the song justice! PLEASE do yourself a favour and listen to the original, it's just stunning and absolutely gorgeous. The visuals are incredible as well! • Kalafina - Fairytale
Middle part I couldn't find the Kajiura lyrics so I improvised. I also...took a LOT of creative liberties with the lyrics. So I'm not claiming this translation is 100% accurate and please don't point out parts that are incorrect. I wanted to focus most of all on conveying the same emotion that I got from the original, rather than keeping the words strictly the same. To me, the most important part of this song was the emotion it carries, so that was what I focused on.

Lyrics:
I recall faint whispers of my past memories
Dreams I lost back in my childhood days
Softly I sing out, trying to erase the tears
But my heart’s shrouded in a green haze
My fairy tale
Though I did once believe in eternity
I’ve learned that one day everything must end
The days we once shared, our precious story
Disappears, its tale an elegy
With one last kiss you vanish quietly
Into the darkened forest trees
Only the light of your lamp remains
Your trail but lost when it should fade
In the dark
In the shadow’s wake, I see a familiar shape
Walking all alone into the night
Far from home, lost and all alone without a guide
It’s too late, to return to the light
Your fairytale
The eternity of my dreams…
…is locked away forevermore
The mistake that makes my heart ache…
…is hidden deep in my heart’s core
The road that leads home has faded away
I no longer see you through the haze
Farewell my love…
The trees silently bend in the breeze
My heart cries knowing you are gone
As tears fall I wave one last farewell
And turn to face the path I’m on
The love story of my eternity
ends now, as the last page is read
It’s time to face the life ahead of me
embrace the joy and pain ahead
In the light
Song is also available on SoundCloud (since I needed to submit it and it immediately got blocked here in Japan) but no download sorry!
