M.L. Bongers Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
貴方に死んでも殺めて欲しくも無い お願い
運命さえ飲み込まれ沈みそうな海へと
願いよ風に乗って夜明けの鐘を鳴らせよ
鳥のように my wishes over their airspace
無数の波を越え明日へ立ち向かう貴方を
争いよ止まれ
ねぇ 人はどうして繰り返し過ちを重ねてく?
進化しない誰もに流れるこの血が 大嫌い
炎で裁き合う誰のでもない大地で
澄みわたる未来が来たなら草花も兵器に
宿るだろう my wishes over their airspace
誰か揺り起こして悪い夢から覚ましてよ
叶うのなら my life I trade in for your pain
どれだけ祈れば 天に届く?
今 朝焼けが海原と私を映す
願いよ風に乗って夜明けの鐘を鳴らせよ
鳥のように my wishes over their airspace
無数の波を越え明日へ立ち向かう貴方を
守りたまえ my life I trade in for your pain
振り向かず羽ばたけ
この想いを運んで あの空を飛んでく
願いは誰にも撃ち落せない

Amazing prog discovery for me. I never heard of M.L. Bongers Project until recently, all thanks to YouTube! Makes me want to own the original LP! At least the LP isn't commanding ridiculous amounts, I could get a copy over at Discogs for under $50 (minus S&H). This music sounded like it should have been released on Sky Records, but instead it was released privately. I am reminded of such bands as Eloy, Ramses, Galaxy (the ones that did Nature's Clear Well), Novalis, Madison Dyke, 1976-78 Jane, and similar groups. I've also seen them compared to Pulsar, which I can understand because of the presence of flute. Love that cover too, it has "rare and obscure private press" written all over it.

Carmen Bernardo
Vocalist puts on a bit of a Peter Sinfield vibe with how he recites those lyrics like poetry.
The band itself suits the manner of his singing/poem recitals. Pretty good stuff!
