This is beautiful! Neil Gaiman (who wrote the English version of the script and adapted the lyrics to English for this song) linked to this video from his tumblr - although he did say "The last line is actually 'All the things that cry in the dark', by the way."
Gorgeous song anyway. Thank you for posting this. :)
The movie is called もののけ姫 (in English spirit or monster princess) and that is why when in the Japanese version she sings "もののけたちだけ” (meaning only the spirits or monsters) it is the highest moment of the song because that's what the movie's about! It's about the spirits/monsters that live the forest! And in the English version she sings "of the things that sigh in the dark, of the things that cry in the dark." The Japanese version is soooo much more mysterious and beautiful.
@SecretTacoNinja because its not the full version..........................lolz...idk.....DONT JUDGE ME!!!!!!!! I'LL GET SAN TO KICK YOUR ASS!!! because you kno, me and her are friends you kno....
@Lprincess01697 the real one they are most likely referring to is the Japanese version. i have that version and another Japanese version posted. the video is called "Mononoke Hime Japanese Lyrics (Version 1)." :D
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!! i have the movie and it is one of my personal favorites, i never get tired of watching it. this song is beautiful, i love it.
i love princess mononoke but i think its s that san does not like her own kind here are all my fav anime movies spirited away howls moving castle nausicaa of the vally of the wind and whisper of the heart
That's weird. I put on the subtitles during the movie on my TV, and its said "In the moon's mere light". And this one clearly says pale, even in the song. Huh.
wow!! awesome! her voice... leaves me breathless for the moment! one word that came out of me mouth is "WOW~" amazing voice! i really admire her voice! thank you who ever shared this video song with us. thanks. :D i love it. +1000
I must admit without any shame that this song in both Japanese and English always brings a few tears to my eyes. I've said it once to my friends and I'll say it again Hayao Miyazaki is an absolute genius!!!
@ShonenWave that's what i thought too^^ but when you look at the translation straight from Japanese to English (meaning unaltered yet so it makes better sense) the first 2 lines says:
By bow strings, when you loose an arrow, the string trembles, and resonates (like plucking an instrument's string). Poetically, it symbolizes the quick beating heart (afraid or excited).
@Riskica im pretty sure its talking about his heart feeling shaky and beating really fast like after you shoot an arrow...i hope thats it because if not im going to sound like an uncultured idiot
Nice song. It's also nice to see good use of Windows Movie Maker (or similar?). It goes to show that a very effective easy-on-the-eye project can be made with just a bit of thought and attention to detail. :)
i have uploaded the longer japanese versions (2 of them) but there is no official long english one, unless you count the credits song "the legend of ashitaka" but it's all instrumental so i didn't want to put that for a lyrics video
Words simply can't describe this song's beauty. It is without a doubt one of the greatest pieces of music ever written in my opinion. Thankyou for including Lyrics in the video.

By bow strings, when you loose an arrow, the string trembles, and resonates (like plucking an instrument's string). Poetically, it symbolizes the quick beating heart (afraid or excited).
