Irys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hope has descended and you are not alone
虹と雨が織り成すコントラスト
絶望の終わりを願うように
ここにいるよ 歌っているよ
夜明けの果てを
凍えた過去と涙にさよなら
きっと despair 晴れるように歌うから
そして make a wish 艶やかに飾るから
Darkness will fade away, hope will lead your way
I'm here to chant the melodies for you
月と星が彩るサテライト
暗闇も君となら飛べるよ
夜だからこそ輝ける光もあるでしょう
忘れないで 君のためのセレナーデ
壊れかけた夢の続きをここで見よう
'Cause I found your story
Time is running too fast and
I'm left behind in solitude
駆け足でいこう 黒い海に沈む君の手に届け
奏でよう未来の足音でオーケストラ
懐かしくも碧い歌で 鼓動で
夜明けが聴こえる
Believe in destiny 約束を果たすから
いつか reunion 語りきれない時代で
嘆きも後悔も笑い飛ばそうよ
そんな轍に希望と名付けよう
きっと despair 晴れるように歌うから
そしてmake a wish 艶やかに飾るから
君だけの声と重ねるように
こんな世界だってそばにいるよ

Hope has descended and you are not alone
Hope is present in your life, so do not feel isolated and unsupported
The contrast woven by the rainbow and the rain
The meeting of the iridescent rainbow and the rainy downpour symbolizes the beauty and tragedy of life
Praying for the end of despair
Aspiring for a time beyond feelings of hopelessness and sadness
I am here, singing
You are not alone, I will serenade and comfort you
Until the end of dawn
Singing through the darkness until the breaking of day
The elegy call of the twilight that has spilled over
Mourning the lost moments of the past and having to say goodbye through one's tears
Say 'despair' and sing as if it will clear up
Sing passionately, almost as if the act of singing can dispel despair and darkness
And make a wish to decorate it gorgeously
Make a wish and embellish it with beauty
Darkness will fade away, hope will lead your way
The darkness and sorrow will lift and hope will guide you forward
I'm here to chant the melodies for you
I am present to sing and offer comfort through the lyrics
The satellite colored by the moon and stars
An object in the vast sky that is illuminated by celestial bodies, representing the possibility of light in dark times
You can fly in the darkness with me
Together, even in the darkest moments, we can persevere and carry on
Even in the night, there must be some light that shines
Even during the darkest times, there is still the possibility of light and hope
Do not forget the serenade for you
Remember that there are those who care and want to sing for you
Let us continue the broken dream here
Let us work together to finish unfinished business and make something new
Because I found your story
Because I have discovered your unique narrative and who you are
Time is running too fast and
Time seems to be passing by too quickly and without regard for our internal struggles
I'm left behind in solitude
I feel alone and unable to catch up with the hectic pace of time
Let us run in haste and reach out to your hand, which is sinking in the dark sea
Let us hurry up and join with you, who feels lost and overwhelmed
Orchestrate a melody for the future and its footsteps
Produce a musical arrangement for the future and the steps it is taking
With blue nostalgia, let your heartbeat be the rhythm
Dance and sing to the rhythm of your heartbeat and past memories
You can hear the dawn
You can sense the new beginnings and hope that the sunrise brings
Believe in destiny and fulfill the promise
Have faith in destiny and live up to the fulfillment of one's destiny
Speak of reunion in times that cannot be described
Deliberate on coming together at a time neither placed in the past nor present
Let us laugh off despair, regret, and tears
Let us rebel against despair, regret, and tears with the power of laughter
Name that rut hope
Call any situation, no matter how bleak, a moment of hope
Say 'despair' and sing as if it will clear up
Sing passionately, almost as if the act of singing can dispel despair and darkness
And make a wish to decorate it gorgeously
Make a wish and embellish it with beauty
So that I can overlap with your voice
I want to harmonize with your voice and stories, and become one with you
Even in such a world, I am here beside you
Even in the darkest of times, I will continue to be by your side
Darkness will fade away, iris will light your way
The darkness and sorrow will lift and the flower 'Iris' will guide you forward
Our journey has only just begun right now
We are only getting started now, so hold on tight for the journey ahead

I came to know about him through Babymetal which I started listening to late 2019. So imagine my shock when I hear this and I find out Yuppe did this version.

I thought attacca version meant like attack version and was expecting:
