【HSR Fansong】Long Slumber Come To Wake【English Cover】
Hi!!!!!!!!
Soooo my mind has been completely consumed by Honkai Star Rail in the past few months. Started playing in March because of Boothill's drip marketing and I ended up falling in love with the game. And with Dan Heng in particular!!
The music from the game itself is beautiful but I came across some fan songs that are just as beautiful!! This is one of them. I tried to write some translyrics to it (I don't speak Chinese so this is based on @yvelisse_yu 's translation, link below) and it was lots of fun. The chorus is a bit high for my range but I tried my best uvu
I'd like to do "Past Karma Scattered" (I can't wait for another Blade rerun!!!!!) next but lemme know if there are HSR related song you'd like me to work on and sing! Mwaahhhck

Stretching far away, the Milky Way
Just won't run out of stars
Mortal lives don't change, always the same old dreams inside their hearts
My own heart, that just beats on, I shut down
Dreading our goodbye
Have I not repaid my debts
Bound in chains, hidden from light?
One person, ninety thousand nights spent
Chasing after life in dreams
But now I'm awake
The countless lives I've lived, and all their struggles
Fade away from memory,
Leave me empty
Now, reaching for the stars, the fleet of Xianzhou
Sails above the clouds
Towers on the sea, an ancient paradise
I listen to the wind, drift like a leaf
And close my eyes
Going with the flow as the waves crash on
Azure dragon, freed from its binds
Don't look back, just leave them behind
Time has passed, now everything's fine
What more do I want?
Distant like the earth from the sky
From those dreamlike memories, then why
Do I still dream on?
Stretching far away, the Milky Way
Just won't run out of stars
Mortal lives don't change, always the same old dreams inside their hearts
My own heart, that just beats on, I shut down
Dreading our goodbye
Have I not repaid my debts
Bound in chains, hidden from light?
One person, ninety thousand nights spent
Chasing after life in dreams
But now I'm awake
The countless lives I've lived, and all their struggles
Fade away from memory,
Leave me empty
Crossing a sea of stars, aboard that train
I have a map at hand
But there's still so much that I don't understand
Beyond this universe, is there a place where I'd remain?
I have to find out if there is a chance
Will the void be filled by a flood?
Will the ocean swallow this world?
Just this once, will being reborn
Grant me freedom?
Will I reach the heavens above?
Nothing lasts, yet time still goes on
Tell me, for how long?
Go with the wind and rise above the clouds
Go with the wind and leave behind your doubts
Always repeating the same song, but I've had enough
Won't let those chains hold me back anymore
Now, reaching for the stars, the fleet of Xianzhou
Sails above the clouds
Towers on the sea, an ancient paradise
I listen to the wind, drift like a leaf
And close my eyes
Going with the flow as the waves crash on
Let the void be filled by a flood
Still, such an ephemeral world
Who's behind the story I've told,
Pulling the strings?
Will we reach the heavens above?
Will my journey align with yours
At the end of dreams?
