With the new ED's single out and the lyrics confirmed, here are the kanji and translation of "Sora ha Takaku Kaze ha Utau":
Spoiler for kanji:
Spoiler for translation:
Even though the song is sung by a female singer, I will be really surprised if the lyrics isn't from Kiritsugu's viewpoint. As for the song itself, another piece of nice work from Kajiura Yuki. I agree with some opinions out there that singing-wise it can be better, but a good song nonetheless. I definitely prefer it over "to the beginning". |

Thanks for the Lyrics About episode 18, I felt this was the first time in the entire series where I actually though that musically this show was better than Fate/Stay night. Kajiura had been having difficulty impressing me so far (even if I do agree that the OST in general is good) whenever I compare it to Kenji Kawai's score. This weeks episode though made me change my mind, and it's arguably closer to the same level I expected from her after the Madoka OST.

The overall pessimism of the lyrics' tone sounds more like Kiritsugu to Iri to me. Plus:

There are some translation matters which can vary depending on translator choice, such as whether "I" or "you" get used. Reading the translation by Atashi - http://atashi.wordpress.com/2012/04/...tau/#more-9394 - that one definitely makes it sound as if the song is from Iri's perspective, in my opinion. The talk about being "I was born lacking in life" with an "incomplete heart", the "You’re someone who didn’t believe in the kindness of the world" and "I believed I can become a fragment of light" seem to fit her a lot better than if the song was from Kiritsugu's perspective.

From the UTW Translation:

Other that, I loved the inclusion of Manten in the previous episode. That was completely unexpected, though Kaijura was just really on the ball throughout this one, in general.

Here's a really beautiful violin rendition of the 2nd Opening ("To the Beginning"):

That was the first appearance of that musical track, so no one will probably know the name of it until it appears on OST II. If you're interested, it plays for a longer period of time, with more of it revealed, at the beginning of Episode 24.
