Karma English Lyrics

[TalesOfExspheres]

I've been translating this song on my own, but my translation is different. I find that confusing. o.O ... Like garasu tama meaning glass ball... I haven't heard of tama meaning shard. (>3<) So confused...

[MrInsanity25]

@TalesOfExspheres Maybe it's all interperetation. My first translation said marble(glass ball) but maybe some people interperate tama as shard.

[Zeldarulah]

@TalesOfExspheres It is definitely marble/glass ball.

[Jedisupersonic7]

The intro song alone tells us the story between Luke and Asch that's quite clever.

[AdiNR23]

can u tell how u add the lyrics to the video??

[gino14]

It's funny how these lyrics also relate to Angel Beats.

[conradbaker]

this song fits xxxHolic. someday i'm gonna watch tales of the abyss too. and i like the translation. WONDERFUL

[alphabladelm2011]

no dislikes, awesome

[miatehtiger]

not the best translation, but most of the general idea is there.

[LinaSparda]

The best translation!!! REALLY!!! Amazing :D!!! <3 <3 <3

[RikuKonekoUzumaki]

this song is soooo awesome, i wanna cry

T^T

[TaraKitaideHunter]

@rainbowyoshi12 The lyrics could be applied to his story. It made me think of him too.

[OrpheusZero]

@TaraKitaideHunter Hmm.. this song reminds me of Cecil from FFIV.

[Xarscum]

@OrpheusZero Funny as both Characters are voiced By Yuri Lowenthal

[LexiconXin]

This opening theme is such a spoilor for the rest of the series...

[rainbowyoshi12]

This song is amazing. I dunno why but it makes me think of Zack Fair from FF7...

[Riiarei]

The reason 'goosebumps' is listed in the tags is because it's such a brilliant song that it gives you goosebumps whenever you hear it! :D

[flamefangstar]

i tryed singing this. it hurt my throat. geuss i need practice, so i can sing atleast half as good as the person singing. anyone else try singing this ?

[GuyTakashi73]

@flamefangstar It's too high for me and the way the words flow is different from english X3

[flamefangstar]

@GuyTakashi73 i geuss it's inpossible then. too bad i would've liked to hear this in english.

[GuyTakashi73]

@flamefangstar not impossible but it requires a good translator who can give us words that fit the rhythm or a singer who can make it fit

[Makaroni5454]

thx soooo much for the translation i love this song sooo much

[Vocaloid0Fan]

Wow, this IS roughly translated because where it says "are now stained with blood"

it should then say "Ima sugu chi de somatte iru" but in the lyrics it never says "chi" so I think the lyrics from gogoanime (I forgot the name of the video player) but the player at the top of the page, has better translations of the lyrics.

(wow I typed A LOT XD)

STILL though good job :)

[un1d0n]

ガラス玉(garasu-dama) = glass bead = born life

[Wall201]

thanks know I know what the dude is singing about. but where'd the glass come from?

[TehSexehKitty]

@Wall201

(Tales of the Abyss)

I believe the "glass" is referring to the replicas, and it takes off from there. I'm not too certain, but I think Luke was one of the first few replicas that wasn't a complete failure, because Jade tried replicating his teacher after she had died.. and it failed.

Then again the point of view for the beginning of the song isn't too clear, but it is definitely a reference to replicas.

[AndreeCynthia]

ahh, i just love this song ^-^

just got into this band about...well yeah an hour ago xD

[KiwiReaper1]

i love this song

[Gamereaper19]

This is by far one of the best songs ever written it makes me miss the game soo much.

[kh557]

@hahahidiot Did you read the description? It said they were "roughly" translated :D. ((sorry if it came off bad I didnt mean to be rude))

[hahahidiot]

@kh557 "roughly" might be a little too nice of a word for this translation job...

[kh557]

@hahahidiot Well I didnt translate them but seriously? They're just lyrics. If you want perfectly translated lyrics, go to Japan. There.

[hahahidiot]

I'm sorry, but these translations are pretty inaccurate...

[ErieTheUnDead]

I memorized and wrote out the english and japanese lyrics of this song when I was in 4th grade. It pwns.

[jpfreak243]

Thank you, THANK YOU for not putting a distracting slideshow in the background!

[animedragon313]

i love the lyrics

[Shu512]

The song was kickass in the game...in this form, it becomes kickass epic. It wins so very, very much.

[GOLDENxROSE]

The lyrics kinda remind me of NANA O: idk y but they do if u think about it :3

[khanime13]

that was awsome :D

[lolpwnlol9098]

WASURENAIDE!!!!

[Shybutterfly16]

Love this song!!!!

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

"In this sunlight that rain down upon us." Lyrics at their finest....damn!

[Swordsmanofthedark]

@Dsurvivor21stCentury The line is "In this sunlight that rains down upon us" which actually does make sense. It's basically saying that the sunlight is falling down upon them.

Still, before I saw the translation your comment made me LOL xD

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@Swordsmanofthedark Huh I'm confused what was funny about my comment? I know it makes sense, and i found it sort of poetic which is why I said lyrics at their finest.

[reducingASH]

i stopped this game half way =x cuz i wanted the hero to be with that rich girl...noble one but he didnt soOooooooOOoo i stopped playin :p but i love the songz

[Swordsmanofthedark]

@reducingASH That's kind of shallow... You should really finish the game. It's kind of under rated compared to ToS but I've heard it was really good.

[reducingASH]

@Swordsmanofthedark what? lmao no point playing when the story line ain't my type. like u're asking a B guy doing the A stuff....  quit wasting my time with your smart ass review & my comment was centuries ago >.>....

[vopop30]

If they really wanted to, I think that they easily could have made an English version of this song and put it in the American release.

[hueycarn]

i think this a great opening song for naruto shippuden

[StrawB3rryz]

Love this song! thanks for the translation!! Tales of the abyss rocks!!

[kirax10a]

@StrawB3rryz Jade Curtiss FTW

[StarlingDinNova]

Luv this song and have a great Idea for an animation now! ^^

[skelanimalgrl114909]

Tales of the abyss <3 Love it! great job too!

[Blitess]

Love you, lol thanks for the sub

[Xorital]

The lyrics are close to being right. The translations in the anime are much better

[SpadedDominic]

You guys have to see this video by Datesanazuki it was TOA in the title with the rest japanese, but typeing in the user name and Toa should find it. it was so cool. I love this song.

[csidaznigga]

is this real? 0_0

[ilikestupid]

I <3 this song. thank you so much for the translation.

[Keishiro]

well fits most of the Tales of the Abyss characters well

[Keishiro]

woah fits luke and asch perfectly

[AlanHolmes1234]

these lyrics arnt right but i like hem better thwen the original

[SheenaMalfoy]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I've wondered for sooo long what these words meant in english...  And it completely fits Tales of the Abyss too, they do a good job at picking intro songs, same for Tales of Symphonia. Now to find the lyrics for three-legged race...

[KakashisFavStudent]

Actually they have the artists write the intro songs based on the plot of the story. They don't just picked them.

[SheenaMalfoy]

Is that so??? Cool! I didn't know that before. Thanks for correcting me!

[ajt1012]

Yeah, like "What's New Scooby Doo?" By Simple Plan

[Ragnell101]

@KakashisFavStudent Really? I thought they just picked out random songs that sounded good.

[KakashisFavStudent]

@Ragnell101 Yeah it was written just for the game
