Warriors (4° abertura)

The song 'Warriors (4° abertura)' by Yu-Gi-Oh! is a powerful anthem that delves into themes of perseverance, dreams, and the eternal struggle for happiness. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a journey filled with challenges and the relentless pursuit of one's desires. The opening lines, 'yureteiru omokageni bokura no negai eien ni hateshinai,' suggest an unwavering wish that transcends time, hinting at the timeless nature of the dreams and aspirations held by the warriors.

The song reflects on the sacrifices made in the pursuit of these dreams, as seen in the lines 'itsushika ukiru tameni okisarinishita shiawase,' which translate to 'the happiness we left behind to survive.' This highlights the often harsh reality that achieving one's goals can come at the cost of personal happiness. The lyrics also touch on the idea of illusions and false hopes, with 'itsuwaru koto de sugatte ototteta tadano maboroshini,' meaning 'clinging to lies, we were chasing mere illusions.' This serves as a reminder of the importance of staying true to oneself and not being swayed by deceptive appearances.

The recurring imagery of searching and striving, such as 'kimi no ega o sagashiteta' ('I was searching for your smile') and 'yureteiru omokageni bokura wa yume hidakidakenuketeku' ('in the flickering shadows, we run through our dreams'), emphasizes the relentless pursuit of one's goals despite the obstacles. The song also speaks to the camaraderie and shared struggles of the warriors, as they continue to fight and seek answers together. The closing lines, 'mekurumeku jidai no naka korekaramokitto aruiteikudarou,' suggest a hopeful future where the warriors will keep moving forward, guided by their dreams and the lessons learned from their past.
