"Yuna's Ballad" is a theme associated with Yuna in Final Fantasy X-2 . Unlike Yuna's character theme, "Yuna's Theme ", Yuna's Ballad is an emotional and sorrowful theme, most notably played during the party's fight against Bahamut in the Bevelle Underground, and moments where Yuna reminisces about Tidus .
A vocal version of the theme, "Kimi He" (To You), was included in the Final Fantasy X-2: Vocal Collection - Yuna album, and also appears in the Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission Original Soundtrack . This vocal version is sung by Mayuko Aoki, Yuna's Japanese voice actress. Since Last Mission was never released in English, no English version of this song exists.
"Kimi He" Edit
Japanese Rōmaji Edit
Toiki omowaseru amaoto ni tsutsumarete
Kotoba wa muryoku to ki ga tsuiteru
Tsutawaru no wa hitotsu dake
Sou, sameta hoho ni tenohira de furete kanjiru
Hakanai nukumori de futari no sukima wo umete
Kodou wo hibikasete kono toki wo wakachi aeru kara
Hitomi tojite
Kimi to aruku gogo wake mo naku futo omou
Yagate kono hibi wa owaru no kamo...
Yokan no koe kiku yori mo
Sou, emi wo kawashi tenohira wo kasane shinjiru
Sasayaka na nukumori de futari no kizuna tsunaide
Inochi wo kanadete itoshisa wo moyashite
Kono shunkan wo somete
Nanimokamo utsurou sekai
Toki wo tometai to negau yume kiete mo
Ima kimi to ikiteku hitotoki wa
Yume janai kara...
Hakanai nukumori ga haruka ni hanareta toshite mo
Tamashii furueta shunkan no omoi yadoshite ashita he
Natsukashii tenohira wo watashi wa wasurenai kara
Kimi he to tadoritsuki meguriau... kanarazu
Kurayami sae mo koete
Rough English Translation Edit
Being surrounded by the sound of rain that sounds like sighs
I realize that words are powerless
There's only one thing that reaches me
I touch the cold cheek with my palm and feel it
Close the gap between the two of us with that empty warmth
So we can share this time as our heart beats
With our eyes closed
Walking with you in the afternoon, without any reason I wonder
If these days will come to an end someday...
Instead of listening to the voice of premonition
Instead I exchange smiles and believe with our hands overlapped
Bind the connection between the two of us with that small warmth
Ringing life and burning love
Die this moment
Even if the dream wishing to stop time disappears
In this world where everything fades
This moment I live with you now
Isn't a dream...
Even if that empty warmth moves away to the distance
That moment our souls touch each other, dwell on the feelings to tomorrow
I won't forget that dear palm so
I'll reach you, I'll meet you... for sure
By passing over even darkness
