The Light Won't Fade (English and Romaji lyrics in the description!)

Описание: #anime #originalsong #endingsong #ending #animesong

Imaginary ED theme song for my Japanese light novel styled story, "Tsukikage no Hikari (Moonshadow Light)".
Words are by me but music is AI generated.


I haven't published the story anywhere but perhaps I will someday.
But you can, if interested, find a short plot summary after the lyrics.


ENGLISH LYRICS:

The tide‑washed shore is lonely
Even if footprints fade, your light still shines
The warmth of your hand will not vanish
Even if seasons turn without you
I will keep that promise forever

The light will not fade
Even within dreams
The pain in my heart
The depths of tears
Even if night hides your face
I’ll keep dreaming until dawn
The light engraves itself into the soul
A story for only the two of us

Flowers sway in the wind
Only the heart believes
When I close my hands, you are there
A distant song, a guiding star
Even if the world forgets your name
I will keep singing gently

If I could cross the wall once more
I’ll search for you in shadow‑filled places
Until that day, I’ll wait here
In front of the sunset shrine

The flame will not fade
Even in my eyes
The pain in my heart
The depths of tears
Even if night hides your face
I’ll keep dreaming until dawn
The flame engraves itself into the soul
A story for only the two of us

Spring will return
Your light
Beyond the end

 
 
ROMAJI LYRICS:

Ano yakusoku wo mamoritsudzukeru

Hikari wa kienai
Yume no naka demo
Kokoro no itami
Namida no soko
Yoru ga kimi no kao kakushite mo
Yoake made yume wo miteiru

Futari dake no monogatari

No hana ga kaze ni yure
Kokoro dake ga shinjiru koto sa

Ikari wa kienai tamashii ni kizamu
Futari dake no monogatari

Haru ga mata toki
Kimi no hikari
Owari no saki ni


STORY PLOT
"Itsuki, a socially anxious student in a sleepy coastal town, suddenly starts seeing the world flicker like an old film reel. At dusk, ghostly creatures called Yurei-no-Kage emerge—and he’s the only one who can see them. During a near-fatal encounter, he’s saved by Rika, a mysterious shrine maiden who reveals he carries the blood of an ancient moon guardian.

The two form a bond as they work together to seal breaches between the living world and the shadow realm. But Rika is secretly fading with every rift they close, and Itsuki must choose between saving the world—or saving the girl who gave his life meaning."
