English Cover 「The Dream the Doll Girl Dreamed」 self duet by ✿ham (少女人形の見た夢)

「 Please allow me the privilege to love you...」
Thank you so much all who have requested this song! Patrons voted for it back in... *checks watch*.... last year....:')... It took a little while to deliver but I hope the wait will be worth it! I really, really practiced my ass off and wrote the lyrics at a rate of like one stanza per month and sometimes that's just how things end up going :')
Fun notes I want to share, these lyrics used different kanji for many words throughout the song, most notably for instances of "I" and "you". For example, kanji "God" for when Len is referring to himself "watashi". Then, in the first half, Rin says "anata" as 貴方 like, "respected party" but then second half it's 貴男 like "respected man",, english does NOT encapsulate it at ALL and anyways my point is, the kanji is super sexy and has so much nuance!! (caveat that I'm understanding this from Chinese)
I'm thinking I want to go ahead and do a JP cover of this song too... (lmk if you'd want to hear it! 😊)
The last stanza's video is chaotic so if it's too hard to read, please take a peep at the lyrics below~

lyrics (please ask before use!)
bit.ly/3fD046V
Inside of a tiny closed off miniature garden
There is a girl all by herself
Who dreams of a single dream that may never happen:
To receive the true love of her Maker himself
The God who has seen the downfalls of human greed
His feelings are but charity
A love only for you that I know you seek
Doesn’t live within me. I’m not who you need
But even so, even if my dream cannot come true
Please allow me the privilege to love you
Though the God who has forsaken love is far beyond her reach
She continues to indulge her heart and clings onto her dream
Oh, take the love you wish to give to me and please, lock it away
Take ahold of your own destiny and live out your days
If love is given equally
Is it apathy?
Virtues that men use to justify greed
I will not be quantified by those means
Humans who were born from heaven’s love and kindness
All eventually succumb to self-indulgence
And they soon forget the God who made them and they scorn His cruelty
All alone inside this tiny garden, simply
Spending all my days not knowing “Why was I made?”
Searching for meaning, wishing for belonging
But alas I will not understand Your thinking
-- The enlightened love that all receive from the philanthropist
Humans who were born from heaven’s love and kindness
Then create the greed that make Him fall from greatness
Although love can bloom it’s only doomed to wither
Such is cruel destiny
-- Only serves as mockery towards the love the poor girl gives
But even so, as long as my gears haven’t worn through
Please allow me the privilege to love you
Though the God who’s been deprived of love stays far beyond her reach
She withstands the quiets solitude and clings onto her dream
Now finally, he takes the doll once more and looks into her eyes
Searching for a long forgotten warmth from another life
This little world I live in
My creation
All of Your dolls, every nightfall ‘til dawn
Come out to dance, and they break into song
Humans who were given life by God’s insistence
Naturally will want to worship His existence
Dedicating our love to only You is life’s true purpose
All alone inside this tiny garden, simply
Wishing that I might receive your true love someday
There’s no other answer
After all, I was created this way
-- The doll who had been created by the lonely broken man
Holding onto nothing but the name of God,
The mind of man descends to darkness all by himself
Even if this love is only doomed to wither
Let me hold you just for now.
-- Smiles as if she could really be alive there in his hand

what I've learned so far: how to spell "privilege" (I keep adding d's in every ge word....) miracles and misclicks do happen (1 dislike back to 0 😎😎) thanks so much for everyone's kind feedback on this video!💖💖💖💖

[@ravoniesravenshir3926]

Is this from a actual Anime? Because if it is... what is the name?

[@amaratuber]

@@ravoniesravenshir3926 It's not! It's an original song by Hitoshizuku-P × Yama△

Ham's dual voices are EVERYTHING

[@SirHamnet]

Thank you!!:)

[@rion-1238]

when you have the power to freely sing without a duet partner and also the power to bamboozle the new comers

[@SirHamnet]

hahaha yes the introvert life is feeling too stressed to collab consistently with other people so I sing with myself xD but sometimes my "other" voice will disappear for a while and then I just gotta try again later 🤷🤷

[@Dennyspuncakes]

DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE LONGED FOR THIS SONG!?!? The way that the lines alternate and somehow match each other so well is so good! You literally made my day!!!!

[@SirHamnet]

Thank you so much!! I'm flattered

[@glee_2001]

The lyrics really enrich the feelings this song holds. The melodies and harmonies are a beautiful mess. Thank you for this amazing cover that I will probably loop for months

[@SirHamnet]

That's a relief to hear!! The lyrics are quite dense and writing the lyrics helped me understand them a lot better. I was so despaired when I found out that yes even the arpeggios have harmonies XD thank you!

[@glee_2001]

@@SirHamnet you did an amazing job. I applaud you 👏

[@hireathecho4]

This is gorgeous! These lyrics must have been hard to write as they sound amazing and flow really well and of course your voice is godly as always! I love how your two “voices” blend together here too!

[@steatopigeon]

aaaaaaaaa, the flow how the heck do you put lyrics together in a way that makes them this smooth?? especially for stuff like hitoyama where there's a bunch of interweaving melodies

[@SirHamnet]

So much trial and error! The best tip I can give is to really understand the song as a whole and the mood/attitude of the singers and try to piece it more wholistically than words/phrases at a time. And over time your rhyme and vocabulary builds up too. Thanks so much!!:)
