暁の車
FictionJunction YUUKA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

風さそう木陰に俯せて泣いてる
見も知らぬ私を私が見ていた
逝く人の調べを奏でるギターラ
来ぬ人の嘆きに星は落ちて

行かないで、どんなに叫んでも
オレンジの花びら静かに揺れるだけ
やわらかな額に残された
手のひらの記憶遥か
とこしえのさよならつま弾く

優しい手にすがる子供の心を
燃えさかる車輪(くるま)は振り払い進む
逝く人の嘆きを奏でてギターラ
胸の糸激しく掻き鳴らして

哀しみに染まらない白さで
オレンジの花びら揺れてた夏の影に
やわらかな額を失くしても
赤く染めた砂遥か越えて行く
さよならのリズム

想い出を焼き尽くして進む大地に
懐かしく芽吹いて行くものがあるの

暁の車を見送くって
オレンジの花びら揺れてる今も何処か
いつか見た安らかな夜明けを
もう一度手にするまで




消さないで灯火
車輪(くるま)は廻るよ

Overall Meaning

The song "akatsuki no kuruma" tells a story about a person who is crying under a windy tree. She feels like she is being watched and tries to overcome her sadness. There is a guitar playing a tune that reflects the sorrow of those who are dying, and the stars seem to be falling because of the lament of those who will never come back. The lyrics express the feeling of wishing for a loved one to not leave, but all that remains are the memories of the past. The singer acknowledges that the memories will stay with her forever and she must move forward.


The second part of the song talks about a child's heart that wants to cling to a soft hand. The flames of the wheels of a vehicle that leave devastation behind, burning all hope of holding onto that hand. The guitar continues to play and the threads of the singer’s memory and sorrow resonate with it. The orange petals sway gently, painting a picture of a nostalgic summer when memories are pure and don't have any tints of sadness. The singer wishes to relive that moment once again, and the rhythm of goodbye echoes through the song.

One of the reasons why SEED is one of the best gundam series is the fact that we can play its scene in our brain by just hearing its soundtrack

@malcolmholmes2596

It deserves a better remake, original seed already had way too much reused animations, and don't get me started on destiny. I hope they can revive the series one day and give it justice

@achtpendragon9169

@Wumbo I strongly agree with your point
The story is amazing for both seed and seed destiny, but the character development is really bad whether it is overpowered, crybaby, etc

@malcolmholmes2596

Acht Pendragon  well the story was a reimagining of the first series which was already proven very good. If you look into destiny the development was weird, writers fighting with the voice actors, and creator getting cancer and eventually dying of it in 2016. Destiny started off pretty epic and strong with an entire colony being hurled onto earth, but after that it was a mess. Apparently a destiny movie is on its way... I hope it ends on a high note
