I Look Up at the Sky Because You Are There (Japanese: 空を見上げる君がいるから Hepburn: Sora Wo Miageru Kimi Ga Iru Kara)[1], also called Because You Are Here Looking Up at the Sky, is the main theme for Wild Arms 4. The song was composed by Michiko Naruke, with Japanese vocals provided by Kaori Asoh and English vocals provided by Franki Love[2]. The Opening version of the song can first be heard during the animated sequence after completing the game's prologue, after which said opening sequence plays every time the player loads a saved game file. The full version of the song plays during the final battle of the game, against the Divine Weapon, and loops until the final battle is over. The song was included on the vocal album Milestone ~ Wild Arms Vocal Collection 2, with the outro of Hauser Hazard included as its intro. A hard rock/techno version of the song was included on the Greatest Hits' album Music the Best -rocking heart-. A chiptune version of the song exists on the game's soundtrack called Yet Another Ex. File.

Donna basho demo jibun no tsuyosa wo Shinjiru koto ha kantan ja nai ne Dakara tsumi kasanete kita yuuki wo Miageta sora ni kakagete |
どんな場所でも自分の強さを 信じることは簡単じゃないね だから積み重ねてきた勇気を 見上げた空に掲げて |
Wherever I am, It's not easy to have faith in my own strength, So I hoist up into the sky All the courage that I've come to build up |
Deep in you, how to find the strength inside? It challenges you Taking all that you can find, it's alright, trust in yourself So come on, it's because you've come this far, it's waiting for you You must raise yourself above and touch the sky |
|
たいせつなもの
連れ去ってゆく 激しい風は止まらないけど 瓦礫の中に潜む未来を ひとつずつ手繰り寄せて |
All the things I did to you
Winds of fate come blowing through Takes away the things you love And you don't know what to do And from nothing comes the light See your future still is sight Waiting there in you, Find the things that you have. | |
|
紡ぎあげた
夢がここにある もう手放したくない |
The dreams we see so far
Together makes us who we are So don't let go, you know we're almost there | |
|
空を見上げる君がいるから
感じているよ 終わりじゃないと 嘘をついても震えたままでも ここから逃げたりしない |
I see you, endless gazing up to the sky, wondering why
And you feel you can't go on, but you know this isn't the end So come on, it's a lie when shaking in fear You're fooling yourself It is true you'll never run away from here | |
|
みんな最期に
微笑みながら 背中を向けて 消えていったけれど ほんとは今も 泣いているんだ 僕等にはそれがわかる |
On the outside they would smile, laughing, joking all around
On the inside they would cry, painful truth they try to hide But no matter what they do, what illusions they could use They can try, but not hide the truth from my eyes | |
|
熱い想い
全部受け止めた もうサヨナラはいらない |
With passion on their side, they know that they can't be denied,
No need to ever say goodbye again | |
|
空を見上げる僕等が佇む
荒野の風は今日も冷たい だけど残してくれた未来が 今この胸にあるから |
Looking on
Raise your head we look to the sky, and sat for a while Cold wind blows, it won't slow down Dries my eyes, knows how I feel Don't look back its a message from above The message is true Find the future safe within our open hearts | |
|
「キミの前に続いてる道を 守りたいんだ 全てをかけて たとえ明日へ たどりつけない 運命に飲み込まれても―」 |
Most of all
Keep the road in front of you safe from the harm So much more is on the line Many more not far behind That is why you must save this road you're on safe for the rest Even though your fate may not include the dawn | |
|
空を見上げる君がいるから
感じているよ 終わりじゃないと 嘘をついても震えたままでも ここから逃げたりしない |
I see you, endless gazing up to the sky, wondering why
And you feel you can't go on, but you know this isn't the end So come on, it's a lie when shaking in fear You're fooling yourself It is true you'll never run away from here |
