“Chi sei, Goku non lo sai…”
And where the crawdads sing and the doves cry, a hero goes to die.
A wrist as gold as a little cloud,
AKIRA
may Shenron grant you infinite wishes
May your paper son show you around
The little planet where the dead grow.
You may excuse a girl or a boy,
For I know you didn’t stop
At the universe guided by seven balls.
Akira…
You gave this child life where there was none
You gave generations
Hope way beyond the darkness.
“L’ Oscurità splendente diverrá con te”
Big brother, father
It’s time to undo the fusion
Between your body
And your hero’s soul.
