Lyrics (Japaneese):

Kaerimichi no nai kemonomichi ni mayoikomi


Dokoka de mita yume omoidasu de javu
Touryanse touryanse iki wa yoi yoi
Kono michi kaeri wa kowai aa
Koko de umarete koko de hateru no?
Nando agaite sakaratte mo dare mo
Nogarerarenai unmei no wa wa
Higurashi ga naku koro mawaridasu yo

Ana no aita me ga mitsume tachitsukushite iru
Eien ni nemuru komoriuta o kiite
Bouya yoi ko da nennen korori yo
Danmatsuma mo yume no naka aa
Koko de umarete koko de hateru no?
Nando agaite sakaratte mo dare mo
Nogarerarenai unmei no wa wa
Higurashi ga naku koro mawaridasu yo

Touryanse touryanse iki wa yoi yoi
Kono michi kaeri wa kowai aa
Koko de umarete koko de hateru no?
Nando agaite sakaratte mo dare mo
Nogarerarenai unmei no wa wa
Higurashi ga naku koro mawaridasu yo
Todoroki sakebu sora yuugen no to ga hiraki saa tsugi wa dare no ban?
Hitomi gokuu no kanashii kuchibiru ga utau yo
Kondo koso akenai yoru o kirisaite

Lyrics translated into English:

I become lost on the animal trail without a way back
It was a dream that I had somewhere, a déjà vu that I recall
Let me pass, let me pass; going is fine, fine
Yet returning on this road is scary, ah
Are you born here and dying here?
No matter how many times you flounder and oppose it, no one
Can escape; the wheel of fortune
Begins to turn when the cicadas cry

Stark eyes are staring and standing still
Ill sleep forever, listening to the lullaby
Little ones are good children, so go to sleep effortlessly
The last moments before death are in your dreams, ah
Are you born here and dying here?
No matter how many times you flounder and oppose it, no one
Can escape; the wheel of fortune
Begins to turn when the cicadas cry

Let me pass, let me pass; going is fine, fine
Yet returning on this road is scary, ah
Are you born here and dying here?
No matter how many times you flounder and oppose it, no one
Can escape; the wheel of fortune
Begins to turn when the cicadas cry
The sky rumbles and yells, the door of occult opens; cmon, whose turn is it next?
The sad lips of the human sacrifice sing
Indeed next time, youll slice apart the night that wont dawn

Duration : 0:5:5

    It’s not that common but some books like to try and be mysterious by saying things like ‘the wheel of fortune has begun to turn for you…’ and whatnot.

    I think I’d prefer to translate “Wheel of Fortune” to “Wheel of Fate” or “Wheel of Destiny”. Maybe it’s just me, but I think that it would suit the song better to be translated that way LOL. Then again, I guess the english title is Wheel of Fortune, so a different translation in the song would be strange…

  • Lavist says:
