Sailor War
| This article is about the battle song from the musicals. For the wars between the Sailor Senshi and Chaos, see Sailor Wars. |
Sailor War was a battle song from the musicals. Versions of this song were used in musicals spanning from the first, Sailor Moon - Gaiden Dark Kingdom Fukkatsu Hen, to the last, Shin Kaguya Shima Densetsu (Kaiteiban) - Marinamoon Final, making it one of the most popular Sera Myu songs.
Song Details[edit]
The original version of this song was performed by the members of Sakurakko Club, who originally portrayed the Inner Senshi in the first musicals. It was heavily synthesized, and used only as a service number in the first musical. In the actual show itself, the orchestral version was used.
The version used in all of the subsequent musicals not only has a different arrangement, with the background music played by an orchestra, but had a completely different melody. The song has a brisk pace, with strings being used for most of the song, with call-and-response brass and woodwind flourishes, and some small instances of electric guitars.
The song was composed by Gouji Tsuno and arranged by Yuzo Hayashi, with lyrics by Kayoko Fuyumori. Akiko Kosaka later revised this song under the title "Sailor War '94."
Lyrics[edit]
Japanese[edit]
あの黒い影が広がる前に
急いでやらなきゃ まに合わない
地球の終りは 見たくはないから
心を決めて 戦いの時
憎しみの炎 ヤツラも本気
命をかけなきゃ 勝ち取れない
行きたくないけど 死にたくないけど
むごい惨酷 許しはしない
5人の誓い 光に変えて
いつつの心 ひとすじにして
夢も想い出も やりかけだけど
来るときがきたと わかったから
愛する人達 この手でまもるわ
瞳をあげて 戦いの時
瞳をあげて 戦いの時
セーラーＷａｒ！セーラーＷａｒ！
Romanized[edit]
Ano kuroi kage ga hirogaru mae ni
Isoide yaranakya maniawanai
Nikushimi no honoo yatsura mo honki
Inochi wo kakenakya kachitorenai
Chikyuu no owari wa mitaku wa nai kara
Kokoro wo kimete tatakai no toki
Ikitakunai kedo shinitakunai kedo
Mugoi zankoku yurushi wa shinai
Gonin no chikai hikari ni kaete
Itsutsu no kokoro hitosuji ni shite
Yume mo omoide mo yarikake da kedo
Kuru toki ga kita to wakatta kara
Aisuru hito-tachi kono te de mamoru wa
Hitomi wo agete tatakai no toki
Chikyuu no owari wa mitaku wa nai kara
Kokoro wo kimete tatakai no toki
Tatakai no toki
Seeraa War! Seeraa War!
