Haruka tooku yoru o koete
Sabaku no umi o samayou

Kami no koe wa shinkirou
Wasurerareta hitobito

Kage wa shiroku yurameki tatsu
Ima hitotabi no maboroshi

Aoku moeru yuusha no yume
Towa ni nemuru hitobito

Crossing the distant night,
Wandering the desert sea.

The gods' voices are mirages;
The forgotten people.

Shadows flicker palely, then stand;
For one moment, an illusion.

A hero's dream, burning blue,
The people, sleeping forever.

*sighs blissfully*

Oh wow.

Where is this from? A pop group, a rock group, an anime soundtrack....?

And do you speak Japanese?

It is, believe it or not, the Final Fantasy: Pray soundtrack. And no, I don't speak Japanese... though I'm wavering in the direction of trying to learn it since a couple of my friends have gotten me hooked on music like this. :)
