Lyrics (thanks to Canta-Per-Me):
amensa ikagaya iri ista rikagari keresta
amaya ikeresta iki ita iyamane irisa
ayana ime enka iri ista ikagaya irisa
amaya ikeresta iki ita isayane hasa
idita amari kata

amensa ikagaya iri ista rikagari keresta
amaya ikeresta iki ita iyamane irisa
ayana ime enka iri ista ikagaya irisa
amaya ikeresta iki ita isayane hasa
idita amari kata
dita amari kata

dita amari esta
dita amari kasa



I always forget about the Xenosaga OSTs, even though they're some of the best work I think Yuki Kajiura has done. This is a good example of that - actually, this entire OST is a good example of that. From this epic song to Godsibb, to the slower and more solemn Hepactica, the music is big and orchestral and everything that she's famous for.

What makes this song the amazingness that it is is that it starts out on the same epic scale that it ends. The orchestral compositional work is amazing from beginning to end, and when the vocals are added, it only heightens what is already an amazing piece of music.

Personal rating: 10 out of 10
