  • With all the remasters that have come out, it's hard to ignore Final Fantasy IV and it's influence on JRPGs. Although it's most notable gift to the RPG genre was the ATB system, FFIV also paved the way for more complex storytelling and themes in games.
    And so, the story of FFIV brought one of gaming's most iconic love triangles. Although both men loved her, Rosa chose to be with Cecil, while Kain ended up with no one. Poor Kain. I feel that he deserves to have someone to love. Unrequited love is painful. I can't help but think of Kain whenever I hear "Theme of Love".
    The version I chose to make an English adaption out of was "Tsuki no Akari". This version was recorded for the Final Fantasy IV remake on the Nintendo DS. With my adaption, I tried to stay close to the original meaning as best as I could. I did have to use my brain and come up with some additional wording. It was necessary in order for the lyrics to flow better and match the beat of the song. However, I still think I managed to retain the original intent throughout.
    Please feel free to check out my other videos, should you need to have lyrics for fandubs. All I ask is that you credit me in your video.
    Have a good day!
    English Lyrics:
    Inside this lonely heart
    There are murmurs of your flowery name
    But my feelings cannot reach you there
    They're imprisoned by my fear's restraints
    Oh that beloved face
    Seems so distant floating in the sky
    Always present and forever there
    Even when I close my eyes
    I still remember pleasant days
    When all our laughter filled this place
    A gentle sound, that still surrounds
    And warms my heart
    The pale moon's silver glow
    Seems to wash away the blue of night
    And all of the times I was with you
    Just a mirror of it's light
    I wish, but never can
    Use my hands to wipe away your tears
    Cause you'd notice what I'd feel for you
    So they'll stay near me and tremble here
    Walking on weary feet
    On a journey where I'm all alone
    Neverending pain and nothing's there
    Can I still go on and roam?
    I still remember pleasant days
    We saw a light, an ambered ray
    And what we found, it still surrounds
    And warms my hands
    The pale moon's silver glow
    Seems to want to stir my rusted heart
    Shining 'cross the evening silently
    It beams on and never parts
    The pale moon's silver glow
    Seems to wash away the blue of night
    And all of the times I was with you
    Just a mirror of it's light

    Thank you so much for the translation! how many years have i heard this song... how many remixes, coves and iterations... from the FFIV SNES game to the Pray album to Mioune's cover to this... and now this one. I weep anew at the words, hearing it again for the first time. Thank you again.

    This makes me want to play FFIV again. Sad it’s not one of the really popular FF. Nobody really talks about it. It’s one of my favorites by far because there is so much memorable characters and angst. So much romance, redemption, unrequited love, parental love and loss. Amazing epic high fantasy with magical locations. I mean you fly to the freaking moon!

      I agree, I wish IV was discussed more in the fandom, along with FF Tactics (not to knock on the popular entries, of course)! I will say that FFIV was a very influential title when it first launched - it really helped JRPGs hone in on more emotional story beats & it paved the way for complex characters to be written in games. Thanks for stopping by and writing your comment ^_^

      It was one of the big popular Final Fantasy entries back in the day, but it got milked to death. The with a lackluster Remake and hit or miss sequel did not help it either. It doesn’t help the best version of FFIV is on the PSP. Not many people will be able to enjoy the definitive complete version. Looking back it’s current state is saddening.

      @@EriLyrics YES! It really was one of the most influential games of the jrpg genre. I’d say it helped shape the genre into what it currently is. Also it’s the FF whose formula lasted the longest in the series.
