This is the Jinto version ending to the anime series Crest of the Stars(星界の紋章 / Seikai no Monshou)
Crest of the Stars and Banner of the Stars (series I and II) follow Jinto Lynn (aka Ghintec Linn), a young noble whose world was taken over by a once human race of space inhabitants known as the Abh. When Jinto was a young boy, his father, Rock Lynn, under threat of invasion, handed over their world, Martine, to the Abh in exchange for a position within Abh nobility. The story of Crest of the Stars picks up as he meets the young, strong yet fragile Abh princess, Lafiel (aka Lamhirh). As Lafiel and Jinto travel to military school they become caught in the beginnings of the war between the Abh Empire & the Four Nations Alliance of humankind...
Lucanaoe's NOTES: Young blossoming romance, submarine style spaceship battles, and cute elfen space princesses. Think "Wonder Years" minus the narration meets "Star Wars episode 3.5" meets "Laputa Castle in the Sky." This series/manga is not very well known due to it's cherishing pace & mature(but not explicit) nature. Make no mistake, it is an original story with excellent direction that brings subtle yet nostalgic memories of childhood. This is a thought provoking space saga with Japan-meets-West historical undertones. There's no animosity, gore, Emo-rage, overly-narrated action-moves, loss of innocense, dramedy, or psychadelic colors, so teenagers, you've been warned.

(English translation)
Please, don't set me free out of pity.
A Long time ago, I could fly anywhere but,
I don't have the confidence to fly like the days when my wings were threatened by the wind in the middle of the night.
So for now, I'm still in a birdcage.
I WANNA FLY SOMEDAY
'Till the lost blue sky returns,
I might as well sing a song for you.
I had a dream, from the days that I flew around all day,
without tiring, with the friends I met back then.
But for now, I'm still in a birdcage.
I WANNA FLY AGAIN
I'll keep on watching this blemished sky,
to keep my heart from straying from its course.
I'll grow tired of waiting for tomorrow and come to terms with solitude.
I'm going to escape, I'll just stay here,
But definately, someday, I'll leave this birdcage.
I WANNA FLY AWAY
'Till the lost blue sky returns,
I might as well sing a song for you.
Quietly, as if it would snatch everything away,
today too, does time flow away in silence.

I love this ending. Thanks for posting it. I must say I prefer the Jinto Ending since we know less about the details of his past than those of Lafiel so the pictures allow you to put a story together.

You're welcomed.
yeah that's true, except for the for the narration of the invasion when Jinto was a boy, you basically have to paste his childhood together with these pictures.
