Song: Thousand Year Wiegenlied, Wooden Girl, (Itsuki no Otome, 樹の乙女, Sennen no Wiegenlied, 千年のヴィーゲンリート)
Vocalist: Cathryn Archer
Composer: Mothy (Akuno - P)
Translation: Cathryn Archer
~Lyrics~
I’m so very sorry I was born this way
That’s the only thing I ever heard her say
Since her mother’s loss she felt all alone
Living on her own
Unlike all the others she had snow white hair
All the other villagers would point and stare
She spent so much time praying by an old tree
“God please send a friend to me”
My heart was moved by her sorrowful words
Cried out in vain to the trees and the birds
I wished for a way I could ease her pain
But I wished in vain
Suddenly a sorceress appeared to me
Offering me new life in a new body
If I changed from a spirit to a human form
Perhaps you and I could meet once more
(Break)
This land seemed so very peaceful
But sometimes things are not as they appear
This world is more than I expected
Now the forest seems so boring compared to here
Your lives seem so very wonderful
So why do you always seem so unhappy
I do not understand this
Why you always judge yourself so harshly
The two of us, so different with our races and our dreams
Green and white have at last combined and come together to meet
(Chorus)
Let this thousand-year vow, echo across the entire land
A Wiegenlied rising from fate’s cruelest hand
We were brought together, though we’re different as can be
You are all I need to be happy, if you’re here with me
When I first arrived I knew nothing
Of your life other than a few simple things
You have opened up my eyes
And hold my hand just like you held my wings
My heart has changed and so have I
It’s almost like something has completed me
Now I feel that no matter
Where we are I’ll be happy if we’re together
By your side I learned so much about how this world is
And here with you I never knew such a joy could exist
(Chorus)
Let this thousand-year vow, resound up to the sky
A Wiegenlied rising to correct history’s lies
As we grow and we change, sometimes despair will creep in
But as long as I can see your smile, I know it will not win
At an evening banquet,
I ran into a king from across the sea
And my fate was sealed the moment,
he took my hand and fell in love with me
Because on this whim he turned away,
the yellow queen he said he was betrothed too
Enraged she gave the order
That brought this war and suffering to our border
Now that the two of us have been torn so far apart
I finally understand what I feel for you, could this really have been love?
(Michaela's Chorus)
Let this thousand-year vow find you wherever you are
Even if I can’t return to you know that I am never far
History is changeable, but I pray that you knew
The forgotten truth they shattered, the truth is “I-”
(Clareth's Chorus)
Even if the entire world, rejected and despised me
I now have a person who admits they need me
I now have a person who I admit I need them too
And that’s all I need to be happy-
(Together Chorus)
Even if the entire world, rejected and despised you
I promise no matter what I will protect you
If you swear to me you’ll find a way to smile again
Then that’s all I need to be happy-
If you can flee to safety until the end of this war
We can meet again and be happy once more
Let’s live in the forest together, I’ll be waiting for you
No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you forever
(Break)
Lying at the bottom of this dark, cold well
I can see the sky shining above this cell
It’s beauty distracts me from the pain I feel
From this knife of steel
The assassin disappeared to places unknown
Golden hair shining in the moonlight’s glow
The truth of their identity was something concealed
The darkness can’t reveal
And you with your hair that was white as snow
And clumsy smile you were afraid to show
If you could remember your promise to me
Please go on living
I wish I could see you one last time
Then I could die without regret on my mind

Something that really irritates me in the evil series is that if you do a little research you’ll see that Gumillia/Gumi who is a forest spirit in a human body just like Michaela/Miku avoided being killed by changing her hair color

[@TheLyricSoprano]

Good point. I'm not entirely clear on why Michaela didn't take that way out as well. She and Clarith were already separated at that point, and since she didn't have any love for Kyle he's probably not the reason either...

[@AnonymousMoon1]

That is a fair point, but I can see Ney still being able to track her down. It may have taken longer, but I can't see it doing much aside from delaying it.

[@13rinslet]

That's because the body he adapted was Eve's

[@Diona_at_McGenshins]

@@AnonymousMoon1 wasn't it Allen(ren) who killed her?

[@sarahfreezis2322]

@@Diona_at_McGenshins no. The real culprit was Ney. Allen even intended to help Michaela escape despite accepting the order from Riliane. But she d1ed before he came tho.

[@marianamendoza7292]

You know, when you think about it most of the events in the evil series is Kyle/Kaito’s fault. If he hadn’t called off the wedding the green hunting never would have happened.

[@TheLyricSoprano]

You're not wrong, though later it's revealed that he wasn't quite in his right mind either. Handbeat Clocktower does its best to tie up some of the plot's loose ends.

[@AnonymousMoon1]

The books go even further and say that while Kyle did mess up he was not the mastermind behind this mess.

[@user-uy5kj9ht9k]

@@TheLyricSoprano Kyle's feelings for Michaela were not love , but more like obsession

[@bellacupcakes4765]

@@AnonymousMoon1 yup, it was actually his bitch mother Prim Marlon and her best friend, Abyss I. R. who planned all the shitty and tragic stuff in this series.

[@mohdasif7099]

He was possessed by the demon of lust and he fell in love with Michaela And rilianne was possessed by a demon too. If it wasn't for Kyle's mother,prim. Len and Michaela wouldn't have died...

[@poili243]

It took me a minute to realize this song was in the viewpoint of Michaela and not Clarith

[@jaydenmejia734]

Sorry could you explain which one is which? I barely understand anything really, can you plz explain?

[@thedabisme61]

Marlin O Michaela is the green hair. Clarith is the white hair. At least I think it is.

[@Raineyes1104]

My immediate thought was EVE MOONLIGHT BECAUSE OF THEIR FAVORITE FOREST-

[@xgshwiainr]

@@jaydenmejia734 Clarith has white hair and from Daughter of White and Michaela is from this song (green hair)

[@ladyem5741]

Omg they were roommates.

I still love this song to death, and I'm so glad I found another cover of it. Thank you very much. I love this cover.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it.

This is beautiful, thank you so much! I was always bit sad about how little love this song got but now that I found this I am content

[@TheLyricSoprano]

Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoy them!

[@hawrasabt5207]

I have no words it’s amazing ❤️

[@13rinslet]

So it's canom that both are mutually attracted. Can we call it lesbian if 'Mikaela' was originally a man before he became a spirit who reincarnated itself in a human girl (who incidentally looks like Eve who in turn one of the turning points for evil)

[@theTheoryofEvil]

I’m my opinion it would still be considered lesbian as Mikaela was reincarnated into a female body and it seems that she was a girl while in that body. Although she was a man before being a spirit or girl she would be a girl. Whenever someone is reincarnated, they don’t really hold onto their past lives

[@thedabisme61]

Canom. This is why people need auto correct sometimes.

[@L0s3rA66]

Your voice is breathtaking

[@miscellanious_memes8707]

i love this love song for miku and clarity!

[@Ichisita]

Hello!! I know it might bother the question, but I'll still take a chance. I'm looking for the instrumental for this song. Could you tell me where you got it? Thanks in advance.

[@TheLyricSoprano]

Hi! I believe the instrumental was a hybrid of the original track, for all the non-sung parts, and the original track with vocal reduction (via Audacity) for the sung parts.

[@Xx_RamenSensei_xX]

I haven’t really kept with the story so the green haired girl..is she the “lady dressed in green” that the yellow haired girl from the daughter of evil song told her brother to kill?

[@sarahfreezis2322]

Yes. Her name is Michaela.

[@arturoreyes5046]

[@thedabisme61]

Can we please have lyrics?

[@TheLyricSoprano]

Just added the lyrics to the description :)

[@emilysanchez4584]

Lovely! Do you know the song My man from funny girl?

[@TheLyricSoprano]

I know it, though I've never performed it on account of it being a Barbara Streisand song. Though if you'd like I'll happily give it a try!
