[Intro] The night sits silent on the edge of steel Moonlight drawn thin across the blade War is prayer spoken with movement A vow carved in bone and breath I do not rage I do not relent I simply cut そして世界は応える [Verse] I step forward on quiet feet The ground remembers those before Footprints layered like phantom ranks Warriors fallen, warriors sworn My pulse steady as winter rain My stance aligned and sure I do not think of death or glory 死も誉れも ここには無い ただ一閃の道 [Verse] Your blade trembles though you stand tall Your spirit wavers before the clash The living fear stillness more than death More than the moment steel meets flesh But I have crossed the veil already I carry silence as my armor The battlefield is my temple 戦場こそ我が祈り 刃こそ我が名 [Chorus] (Japanese) 血にこそ誉れ 刃にこそ道 声なくとも戦は語る 名前は風に散り ただ斬った軌跡だけ残る ここで終わるか ここで生まれるか [Verse] The clash rings out like shrine bells Sparks scatter like startled stars Your strength is brave but unrefined Your courage honest yet misplaced I do not hate you Hate is wasted breath I simply do what must be done これが我が務め これがあなたの終幕 [Bridge] Stand firm in your final moment Let your spirit remain unbroken A warrior is not measured by victory But by how they face the final cut Hold your eyes to mine Let nothing scatter you 血は大地へ戻る 名は風へ還る [Chorus] (Japanese) 血にこそ誉れ 刃にこそ道 声なくとも戦は語る 名前は風に散り ただ斬った軌跡だけ残る ここで終わるか ここで生まれるか [Verse] The field is quiet when breath fades No cheers, no triumph, no glory Only smoke carried by indifferent wind And the red shine drying along steel I sheath the blade in silence Not in pride, but in remembrance また戦が呼ぶ 我は応えよう [Outro] If tomorrow demands blood, I will stand If duty draws the blade, I will not turn For peace is not promised to the undying Only the will to endure 名もなくとも 誉れは刃に宿る
