Please understand me
I am not what others think
Ah...
I am not used to be warm
Even my own parents hated me
My own mother tried to kill me!
No one in my village
Wanted to be close to me
I ran away from home
Only carrying a bag on my shoulder
But then I hesitated
I walked home again
No!
My house!
My family!
It's burning!
I...
I was not the cause of it
I was not!
... was I?
Perhaps my mother was right
She should have just killed me
I should have not prevented her
I should have not been alive!
I traveled alone
And then...
Someone tried to befriend me
A weird old woman
She protected me
She defended me from those thugs
She used the sword
With amazing skill
She broke down my wall
Garya...
My first real friend
I have her to thank
Then I left her
I wandered again
I became a warrior
I helped people
Afraid of my true nature
I went to a forest
The place where is said
Mezame would appear
I saved a girl
Who spoke in a strange language
Who fell down on her knees
Who threw herself on me
She cried
And cried
She was just a child
I could have not left her
She traveled with me
Slowly she started to speak
In my language
We began to understand each other
A warmth seems to emanate from her
A light that melts my wall of ice
A light that purifies all
A light that brings sanity
When they captured her
When they tried to sacrifice her
I was in a rage
I would not let them do so!
That moment I realized
I love her
I would die for her
I have to protect her
She realized that
She is mezame
Finally
And she cried
She asked me for forgiveness
And as I stared dumbfounded at her
She said that she would leave me
She wanted not to see me suffer
She ran away
I looked at my empty hands
My heart ached so
I would not let her go!
I stopped her
I told her how I love her
I went down on my knees
And I begged her not to go
She kneeled in front of me
She kissed me
And she whispered
That she would never leave me
Tears started to well in my eyes
I have known true love
I have found the one
That would love unconditionally
We have vowed to protect each other
We go our own way
To find our paths
To change our destinies
Goodbye my friends
Be discreet about us
Mezame and tenjoku
Are traveling together now
We would protect this world
