When Cicadas Cry
Vocals: Shimamiya Eiko

Behind where I looked back; (Who’s in the front?)
In the dark, I raised my claws (and slashed apart the night)

The raindrops turn into droplets of blood and travel down my cheeks
If there’s no place for me to return to anywhere anymore

Take these fingers, my fingers
I’ll take you away with that finger
To the unopenable forest where cicadas cry
I can’t turn back anymore

Being made to disappear one by one; (the blue flames)
On the other side of the dark, (the morning won’t come anymore)

Inside the mirror, with countless wriggling and stretching hands
Come on, lure someone here

Oni-san, come here, to where my hands clap
No matter how you’ll get away, I’ll capture you
From the animal trail where cicadas cry
The voice that I heard is no more

Take these fingers, my fingers
I’ll take you away with that finger
To the unopenable forest where cicadas cry
I can’t turn back anymore

Oni-san, come here, to where my hands clap
No matter how you’ll get away, I’ll capture you
From the animal trail where cicadas cry
The voice that I heard is no more


Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
Vocals: Shimamiya Eiko

Furimuita   sono ushiro no   (Shoumen daare?)
Kurayami ni   tsume o tatete   (yoru o hikisaita)

Amadare wa chi no shizuku to natte hoho o tsutai ochiru
Mou doko ni mo kaeru basho ga nai nara

Kono yubi tomare   watashi no yubi ni
Sono yubi goto   tsurete tte ageru
Higurashi ga naku   akazu no mori e
Atomodori wa   mou dekinai

Hitori-zutsu   kesarete yuku   (Aoi honoo)
Kurayami no   sono mukou ni   (asa wa mou konai)

Kagami no naka de   ugomeki nobashite kuru musuu no te de
Saa   dareka o koko e izanai nasai

Oni-san kochira   te no naru hou e
Donna ni nigete mo   tsukamaete ageru
Higurashi ga naku   kemonomichi kara
Kikoete ita koe wa mou nai

Kono yubi tomare   watashi no yubi ni
Sono yubi goto   tsurete tte ageru
Higurashi ga naku   akazu no mori e
Atomodori wa   mou dekinai

Oni-san kochira   te no naru hou e
Donna ni nigete mo   tsukamaete ageru
Higurashi ga naku   kemonomichi kara
Kikoete ita koe wa mou nai

  3. Arigatou Gozaimasu!! I was looking everywhere for these lyrics and finally found them! I really love this song!!

  4. This is a great song for a great anime. Thanks a lot for the song and the lyrics!

  5. Thanxs for the lyrics this song is really good ^^

  6. Wow, this song is great
    thanks a ton for the lyrics\links

    helped a ton

    the song is so poetic./

  7. I’m simpy addicted to the song. Once watching the anime ‘Higurashi no Naku Koro ni’’s opening song, I just couldn’t get it out of my head. Thanks a ton for the lyrics!

  8. I love this song soo much. But there’s something that’s been bothering me. In the very beginning of this song, the singer is like…chanting something. It happens in the middle of the full version too. I wonder what she’s saying?

  9. The chanting is a form of subliminal message known as backmasking. When the song is played in reverse, the nonsensical chanting sounds like “I love you” and “You can’t escape” in Japanese.

  10. Thank You. Arigato Gozaimasu!!!

  11. Tanks!
    I love this song!!!
    Aggrigato!

  12. wow… i read other translations but i think yours fits best…
    was actually looking for lyrics to “all alone” and the karaoke version… and i found this.
    sadly the links are expired. i did manage to take sakuradrops from utada and i thank u for that. i was looking for that too.. and i spotted it.

    i guess i have to say this…

  18. Tehee, thank you for the translation! The anime scars me a whole lot, but its so, addicting! x33

  19. Is this the full song? I know it’s most likely the full theme song but I have the actual full version song of it and I’d like to know the WHOLE song so’s I can sing it! ^^

  20. @Briana: Yes, it’s the whole song.

  21. what’s the orginal name of this song? I doubt it’s “Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Opening Theme – Higurashi no Naku Koro ni”, but maybe I’m wrong:)

  22. @ Emo_Boy:
    Yes, the original title of the song is Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, the exact same as the anime.

  29. ‘Oni-san’ is like the It in tag games.

  30. どうも. Addictive indeed. Usually I skip the intros of series, but this one I listened to every time. Cutest/freakiest show I’ve seen.

  34. Hi. First off, thank you so mcuh for the song!
    I looked for it everywhere and couldn’t find it and when I found it here I was so excited!

    Second, it ended up expiring on me. :(
    I played it when I first received it then went on itunes to buy new songs (I can’t find this song on itunes btw).

    Later I came back to check on this song and it says it can’t play and wants me to locate the ifle. Except I can’t locate it? Not even in my Recent Documents folder.

    If you could help that would be great =)!
    And sorry about the oober long post D:

  35. ‘akazu no’ could also mean forbidden to unlock, I think that also fits quite well

  36. never mind. I fixed the problem ^_^

  37. Great! Perfect yours dream :P
    Thx for full OP + MP3

  38. this is an awesome song. what caught my attention about it 1st was…uh…whatever it is that she’s saying during the instrumental breaks XD thnx 4 posting ^_^

  39. Thank you so much. Great song and anime. Season 2 really rocks!!! but the opening theme of season 1 is the best.

  40. This anime is sooo addicting. I’m weird because I love the killing/gory scenes.Blood is sorta my turn on! Lolz. So anyways, I love the song. The visuals for it on the show is weird, but seems to fit it really well. I’m now addicted, and I waited 2 whole hours for it to download (I have dial-up)but it was so worth it. Thnx!!!

  41. I love this song…>w< i never new it was that long tho…o.O

  42. graciias x subir esta cancion, realmente esta genial, me enknta!! yo estoy viendo este anime y es lo mas!!

    viva HIGURASHI NO NAKU KORO NI!!!!!!!! xD

  43. Thankx for putting this up
    I’ve been looking for it for AGES XD

  44. i love this song
    thank you for your hardworking ^^

  45. The “Oni san kochira te no naru hou e” part at least, is the opening of a nursery rhyme in Japanese. It’s old, used as a little ditty when children are learning to walk. The fun is, you call your little toddler “mr oni”, and play a little game of tag, with you as the target… they walk to you, etc. I don’t know it all well enough to know where the rhyme leaves off and the song begins however.

  46. This song is absolutely amazing. And i like Shimamiya Eiko’s voice a lot. Thank you for the lyrics a lot. Arigato =)

  47. That’s my one of my favourite anime openings ever…thanks!!!
