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

  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?

    Comment by Razuberii — March 8, 2007 #

  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.

  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:)

    Comment by Emo_Boy — October 18, 2007 #

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

  28. What is the ‘Oni-san’ in the lyrics? Is it demon, or brother, or something else?

    Comment by anon. — April 17, 2008 #

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

    Comment by Atashi — April 17, 2008 #

  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.

    Comment by lol2728 — July 19, 2008 #

  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
