Tamashii no RUFURAN
(Soul's Refrain)

Sung by Hayashibara Megumi/Takahashi Yoko
Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death and Rebirth Theme
Translation by Gramarye

Concealed by darkness and pale shadows I can feel my bare skin
Lost in the mists of time, it shivers in a silent passion
As if I was trying to see just where my life might soon lead
I stretched a fingertip into the quiet unknown

For you, a person who embraced the fate that they were given
The season's beauty blooms, as fragile as a short-lived flower
I can feel the scent of your hope, left in the wake of your heart
I watched it fade away, away from your light, from your brilliance....

*Come back to me, back where you want to be
Before you can be set free
Return to the earth you've passed through
Nothing has changed there
Come back to these arms where you long to be
Where you can be part of me
The miracle's stirring within--again and again...
Tamashii no RUFURAN....

For when I closed my eyes, as if to pray in silent slumber
The world around me disappeared into the yawning darkness
Even so, I knew that my heart still tried to beat within me
And it would always strive just to find eternity...

**Come back to me, back where you want to be
Pursuring your memories
The source of our dreams and our light
Is waiting for us
You have to come back and be part of me
Where love is our destiny
My heart and my body both feel the pleasures we knew
Tamashii no RUFURAN....

*Repeat

**Repeat
