LYRICS:
Reach for my hand,
I'll soar away
Into the dawn,
Oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls,
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn,
Knowing time betrays
Faint lights pass through colored glass,
In this beloved place
Silver shines, the world dines,
A smile on each face
As joy surrounds, comfort abounds,
And I can feel I'm breaking free
For just this moment lost in time,
I am finally me
Yet still I hide,
Behind this mask that I have become
My blackened heart,
Scorched by flames, a force I can't run from
As I live out
Each peaceful day
Deep in my soul
Oh, I know I can't stay
So I wish I
Could hide away
Hold tight to what I love,
Keep cruel fate at bay
As the rain falls on the path,
I chase your shadow
I don't feel a single drop,
Or the ground below
Then you turn to me and I
Stop before I know
And the lie upon my lips
I let it go
Cross my heart
Making vows I know will be betrayed
A sad girl's pleas
Live only for a breath and then they fade
Don't ever take
Back your kind hand
Lest precious love
Slip away like time's sand
Only we will know
All that was lost
Scars that we can't erase
Show us life's true cost
The blue moonlight
Cuts across our sight
As pure and clear as a ringing bell
Reaching for us in the night
As the wind calms my thoughts,
I have strung on this terrace
I feel at peace,
Carried away by the wind's song
Open the door
And walk away
Never give in
To the call of yesterday
Memories that made
Those days sublime
These ruined halls entomb
Stolen time
Reach for my hand
I'll soar away
Into the dawn
Oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays

WHO GOLDEN DEERS HERE???
AYYYY FEAR THE DEER
FEAR THE DEER!
Claude is Bae!!!
FEAR THE DEER
FEAR THE DEER
Dimitri: *Sing EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!!*
Edit: *Oh look we have another FE fighter in Smash*
Dimitri mah boi❤️
Showing young edelgard and dimitri hurts me so much, excellent choice
To this day, I can say without a doubt you're the only cover artist who I prefer over the originals of the songs they cover. You never cease to amaze me.
Good Taste
Never thought Id see you here
you ever hear of insaneintherainmusic
FACTS!
That emerald ring in Claude's cut...
I just realized he's the one who gives YOU the ring, instead of you giving yours to your chosen. And it matches the green color scheme they share; Verdant Wind, Sothis, little things like their eye colors, Byleth's hair, etc.
I think between the four, there's a reason why Edelgard and Dimitri are pitted against each other, serving as the foil to Byleth and Claude's harmony. While Edelgard and Dimitri need Byleth, Claude's always seem functioning without them. It's quite interesting. I could write a whole essay on the subject, but it's pretty obvious.
Dimitri is the only one who needs Byleth.
Both Claude and Edelgard are in charge of a force, while Dimitri is alone and LITERALLY CRAZY from story reasons in every path.
@@EverydayYounglife Byleth is both Edelgard's and Dimitri's moral compass. Without them, both Dimitri and Edelgard become their worst selves
@@randomkiller29 And while he doesn't go straight up murder mode Claude does lose sight of his goals by the end without Byleth
I think its to show that although Claude isn't royalty, he clearly has all that is required to Rule, especially compared to the other 2.
@@keithfilibeck2390 Claude is actually royalty, he's the crown prince of Almyra. This post-game epilogues talk about it.
I was blown away by that realization.
It’s weird that this cover sounds more natural than the actual song...my biggest issue with the official one is it sounds like a youtube english cover but this doesn’t which is amazing. props
In that case, the irony is very strong
While this is very much Edelgard's song, I love the other lords showing up at relevant moments in the song.
Sapphire's mic must clearly be a Hero's Relic
Well I mean there are mic weapons in the fire emblem universe
Its amyr in Tokyo Mirage Sessions
I don't like your profile picture but i want to know where you got it
After beating the black eagles route, and the golden deer route, and currently doing blue lions, I can say golden deer was my favorite, it got me emotional and just all around Teary eyed from everything. And then hearing this song as I finished it got the tears going.
This cover is fantastic and really reminds me of those feelings the golden deer route gave me. Your covers never stop amazing, but this takes the cake for me
Dude I exactly felt the same thing when I finished the golden deers route 😭
daimon KZG I’m glad others did! I was not expecting what happened but man they did perfectly with that route. It actually felt complete and nearly perfect
And yet we have the strength to scale the walls between us. To reach out our hands in friendship, so we can open our true hearts to one another!
THAT'S HOW WE WIN!!!
oh no freaking perfect! The BEST quote in my opinion
@@paranoialp6426 YEEES CLAUDE IS SUCH A GOOD BOY
Oh I wish I could stay
But I gotta go do my homework 🥰🥰🤭🤭
I love the oh i wish i could stay
BLUE LION HERE!!! Goodness, I got goosebumps the second the first notes started to play. Good job!
Roar! 💙🦁
BLUE LIONS SQUAD UP
💙
💙🦁⚜️
Ew
[MINOR SPOILER] - idk if it's confirmed but I really feel like this song is sung by Edelgard conflicted between her ambitions and the friends she's made
Its confirmed, the song is sung by Edelgard herself (her point of view) which kind of makes you think that the whole story could be centered to Edelgard since the OST of the game is sung by her :3
@@frozenyukimori that's true in my opinion the whole story should have been about her besides Dimitri she's one of the better characters
@@frozenyukimori The Song is about Edelard but the game was actually started around Blue Lions path as its focus, at least that is what the dev said in an interview.
@@EverydayYounglife dang this reminds me of Re:Creators. Edelgard reminds me of the anti-hero/antagonist of that anime, Altair. The whole story was in the point of view of the "Heroes" or the supposed "Protagonist" of the anime. But it was revealed at the end that Altair was the actual protagonist and the people everyone thought were the Heroes were actually her side characters or antagonists of her story. Epic. Hahaha that's how I kind of view this song about Edelgard XD
Yeah, the Japanese name title translates to Lady of Hresvelg
As much as this is Edelgard's song, I feel it can also be Dimitri's. After playing the Blue Lion route(Which was my first route), I can visualize it being sung by them both. This mainly comes from first verse, in which the lyrics "Yet still I hide, behind this mask, that I have become" and "My blackened heart, scorched by flames, a force I can't run from" stand out the most, and the first line of the song "Reach for my hand, I'll soar away". For Dimitri, he hides behind the mask of a person who moved on from the Tragedy of Duscur when in reality that event changed him into a boar seeking only revenge, his heart blackened and scorched by flames of that event and the ghosts he can't run from(Which to him is a force he can't run from). Yet that mask he wears is what so many have seen it has become him, which makes his change so drastic to so many. By reaching for his hand, he truly regains himself and is able to soar like he always should of been able to. I know that it is Edelgard's song as it relates to her more than anyone else and the fact that the route in which you do reach for her hand, the song doesn't play as there's no need for it. At the same time it can also relate to Dimitri.
That being said, this was a great cover. Well done!
I can see that yeah. Edelgard's foil and parallel might be Rhea but they do share a lot with Dimitri as well if no where near the same extent. And being able to take parts of the song to represent the other two lords is imo why it also doubles as the opening for all the Edge of Dawn is Edelgard's own character song. And the longing for the mostly carefree academy days is one that rings true for most of the students as well come Part Two such as Dorothea.
no
no
This is and will only and always be Edie’s song smh
@@maluteas She traded her extra chapters for this song xD
But I kinda see the Dimitri parallel tho. They're both monsters because of the circumstance needed them to be. Dimitri to cope and Edelgard to achieve her cause.
Every time i here this song makes me so happy I did the CF route first, but it also gives me sorrow fir what i must do in the other three routes.
*LET THE LESSON BEGIN!*
*I LOVE YOU FOR THIS MASTERPIECE ♡*
hearing sapphire's cover has me convinced to get this game for my birthday
so far after starting with blue lions and considering im nearing the end of that route, i can say with certainty that it was a great buy and i am happy to have gotten it
I'm always baffled by how Sapphire's covers always achieve the same, high-standard!
Everything from the vocals, instrumentals, and mixing, to the recently added visuals, never cease to take the breath away!
You're a blessing to every community you're a part of, Sapphire!
Thanks, tons!
This song is such a specific sorrow that I will never know, and yet it's so beautifully conveyed that it still makes me feel sad all the same.
I'm so glad I'm on notification squad, I love FE3H
...
I'M NOT CRYING YOU ARE.
Seriously though. This was amazing and shook me on how well it was done.
This is why i'm a patreon supporter! Sapphire has some of the best covers around.
This is great, it suits your voice so well, good job.
OHO! 🎶The Edge of Dawn🎶
Someone need to do a mashup of it or dust !
Theirs a duet version of the English and Japanese
listen, I usually don't get shivers when I hear covers and music in general, but GODS. THIS. OH MY GODS.
all I can say is props. this is incredible and you deserve ALL of the kudos! your voice is incredible and your voice brings such a beautiful weight to an already-very weighted song! so, I'll give you all of my kudos!!
One does not consider fun when balancing the crests. But this... does give a smile to my face
Aahhh beautiful! ❤️💕After playing Blue lions when this melody plays as the battleground ost I always get teary-eyed, now I'm on my Black eagles route, and can't wait for Golden Deer! I always leave the best for the end, this game is amazing it's been so long since I've enjoyed a game like this since Persona :') this one gave me hopes for next FE entries 👀 ps. Srry my bad English orz
i heard the back up vocals and died
such an amazing harmony
this was amazing I'm simply blown away I've been listening to this song a lot in the past couple weeks and that includes other peoples covers but this has made them all fade away this was so much better and that has to do not just with the translation and instrumentation but with your singing as well the fact that your a veteran singer comes across so strongly in this song since you make so many inflections as you sing certain words that not only sound better but also make the words fit better in the context of the song other people try to rush through them to make them not as noticeable but you fit them in perfectly and it makes this cover stand out that much more not just a work of art but a masterpiece thank you for the fine craftsmanship you have put into the song I'm going to listen to the heck out of it!
Give Emperor Edelgard headpats. She needs them.
Don't worry, I made sure Dimitri gave Edelgard plenty of headpats.
Kinda weird he spells headpats as "Atrocity" and "Tempest Lance" but whatever.
@@Kuroganekisaki I'm an Edelgard fan and I admit that was a pretty good one lol.
I rather cleave her skull like in the GD path
Poor El just wants cake ;-;
No, she needs *DISCIPLINE* !
You and Amanda Lee make me cry when i listen to this
Crap, this is actually phenomenal.
For me so far the best Edge of Dawn cover. Nicely done, thank you.
Could you please cover FATE/Stay Night opening Disillusion. I haven't found an English version yet.
BLACK EAGLE STRIKE FORCE
My first run. Loved all my eagle 🦅 babies. When I went to lions 🦁 and I had to kill Ferdinand because I couldn’t recruit him, oh it hurt.
Naa45702 I am Ferdinand
LET'S GOOOOO
Yes
@@varylix871 von aegir
Oh damn! It's a bop!
I don't comment often, but I've been following you for a long time and I love your work. You're such an amazing vocalist. ^_^ Plus I always see you around on Twitter and think something along the lines of "Maybe in some other life we would be friends" or something, lol. I feel stupid saying that, but basically I just think you're cool and am grateful for what you do.
Edelgard Best Girl
So true...
"As more blood wets by feet, they grow heavier with each step."
so fucking savage, yet so tender a heart.

Where is this said?
@@on-line10 in crimson flowers arc.
This deserves way more views than it already has.
Ngl first time I heard this I thought it was an original work. Now that I've heard the original from FE three houses I have to say, as good as that version is you add something special to the lyrics that sounds amazing and puts it a step above even the og. Well done I hope you find all the success you have clearly proven you deserve.
Best Fire Emblem song ever!
Totally gorgeous, but why does no one cover the opening version >_< personally a much bigger fan of that instrumental. Oh well, good times here.
Zach Ricca sapphire also did a cover of the opening version a week or two ago I think
@@Maxiom5 she did, and it's lovely - it's just not the full version. I realize I'm being greedy lol
@@DandDgamer There isn't a full version
Or rather the opening version is a happier abridged arrangement to the full more somber version that plays at the end of 3 of the routes.
There is a full version of the opening called "Lady of Hresvelg", but it is not included in the game. I believe it is considered owned by the Japanese singer as one of their singles. So a full version of the opening does exist, it just isn't found in the game and it is only in Japanese.
@@Ace-vi4ec cool, very helpful info. I was trying to keep track of all versions of this song lol.
Sucks that it'll probably be way harder to find that specific full version ;-;
Absolutely wonderful!
Brought me to tears with this
I love the sound of your voice!
Your voice is very beautiful! It reminds me of the peaceful days of Garreg Mach...
why does this video feel better then i remember....? Also, Fear the Deer !!!
This wasn't quite what I was expecting, but still so amazing. Pleasantly surprised. Beautiful vocals as always.
This is amazing! I really enjoy your music/covers. It entertains me when I'm up and it picks me up when I'm down. In any case great work as always!
Black Eagle Squad where ya at?!?
Here.
Right behind ya
Lets goooo!
Lets rebel against the church!
@@robno1033 But of course. The crests are to blame
Your covers are always so beautiful! Thank you so much for posting this!
Bless, listened to this on Spotify & it was so good.
BLACK EAGLES UNITE.
I just discovered your channel today and I’m glad I did. Amazing work, thank you
oh god why are you so perfect? this is just beautiful, you are a gift to the world.. great job!
I love the japanese version but what a voice of yours. I discovered the game last week and wow, what a thing, certainly one of my favorite games of all times, its story is such beautiful, THAT is a GAME.
Some (End Game) plot SPOILERS concerning my thoughts on the story:
That's funny how everyone seems to dislike Edelgard after playing the game, but for me it's literrally the opposite.
I wasn't into her at all, the only interest I had were the students of Black Eagles, she seems like a blend character and Claude was my boy. Then I did the four routes of the game and wow, I see her kind as a martyr (I don't know if its the word but you know, the kind of person who suffers hatred from anyone in doing bad things by wearing a mask in order to improve the world and litteraly erase the corruption from the land).
But like I said, "erase corruption", you think you're leaving a peaceful life but since all the better you could get is hidden from you, you don't see it, you accept your fate what so ever without thinking about how you could get a better one. You're in an illusionnary realm you can't question because on the outside you don't see the truth. If some of you know about Bleach, I'm seeing Rhea as an Aizen kind of person, calm and calculator knowing (time betrays? ^^') what she's doing so far.
In Claude's Route, Rhea survives but since the Empire and the Kingdom are gone, she knows that in several years everybody will continue to see her as a hero who saves the world from a crazy and corrupt women.
In Dimitri's route, Rhea is kind of imprisonned but still alive, and since the Kingdom is a theocracy.... well Rhea just have to wait until she's on the way again. Oh and if I'm right, Dimitri wants to kill El on a simple lie, that being that she kind of kill his father and stepmother but we don't know the real truth about that.
In Church route, obviously we won't see Rhea as the mad entity and we don't know about Nemesis real motivations in the past and why they fought each other. I know we fight him in Claude's route and he's seen as a bad guy so technically this would be proof for him to be bad and for what says El in her route, this being that the story is false and it was at first a simple quarrel but resurrected Nemesis is manipulated by TWSITD, those who hate the goddess and the cult so it could just be a manipulated Nemesis having his mind corrupted by TWSITD.
Oh and about time betrays, that's the whole plot. Rhea as a deity can live for centuries or even millenials, yes time betrays, in a human life but time also forget from a deity perspective aka millenials. The problem of the game is that we don't see how much damages emblems do in the worlds.. oh yeah I remember, nobles are over the top, experiences are made to get better emblems in the royal family, it's a race for emblems since the... beginning.
Rhead wants to keep her place in the society, her throne and her crazy mind is just about "yanderee-ing" Byleth 'cause of her mother which technically is in Byleth who will serve as a receptacle body for the goddess to take her place in this world. (But seeing how Sothis is, I think she just doesn't care at all about that).
It's also a reason why I think the Edelgard's route is a secret ending, it's because the whole game wants you to think Edelgard as a vilain completly corrupted by her own vengeance.
But that's not false either, in three routes we see her doing some bad things, but what the game told me is: "it's all a matter of point of view".
In her personal route we understand what are her desires and why she's doing all of that, it's kind of a vengeance disguised but also a way to stop Seiros's cult machinations. It's the same as the TWSITD, they hate the goddess but we don't know why (and I won't speculate about it). She wants to end this quickly in fact that's why she seems crazy, she makes quick and emotional decisions most of a time (and when Byleth "revives" 5 years later he's like an entertaining figure to her (oh a professor), she thoughts that Byleth would side with Rhea because it's what he is, technically part of Rhea's family.
I'm sure if you've done Claude and Dimitri routes before, you can't join her after, because you see her as a bad person, and I was in that case, thinking that the world is peaceful, even with the mad cult of Seiros hidding so much things so she's betraying everyone but after thoughts the game got me.. trapped in the corrupted state of Fodlan, on the surface I was just seeing a peaceful world but when you dig into you understand the problems of the emblems and the nobles (Sylvain support dialogues are pretty self explanatory, trapped in his destiny of noble, he knows he will just marry with a random other noble for... noble dignity ? family dignity ? Useless stuff you can't do nothing with, you don't choose, you suffer and shut up like everyone and you think "that's what the world is, you can't decide on everything, that's nothing important".
I would finish that by saying this: It's possible that if Edelgard never began the war, Rhea does it herself, she first created the Empire, Kingdom and Alliance in order to divide Fodlan to keep the total control, and like you know in church ending, Rhea wins and every other political system cease to exist. That way nobody can ever counter the cult again...
Your version is fantastic. *^*
Oh man this is absolutely fantastic!!!
The editing is amazing too!
Love this song each time i hear it!
Beautiful sapphire. Just beautiful.
Not so fun fact:
The translated name of this song in Japanese is ‘Lady of Hresvelg’. I cry every time I remember this name of this song because if you’ve played all the routes we killed Edelgard THREE BLOODY TIMES
Holy Deer this is awesome!
You nailed it Sapphire!!!
3:04 Poor litle Dimitri
Lovin' that Skyrim loading screen at 5:10
Absolutely gorgeous, you voice dots this so well 💙💙💙
In my opinion I find the golden deers route to be the best. All the students have no fights or grudges against eachother and are actually a band of buds, Ie felix hatin everyone was annoying. Also the claude doesnt rely on you unlike the other 2 who need you, he works with on an equal ground. Even the ending felt more satisfying by breaking down the walls between kingdoms to work as allies rather then enemies, plus he gives you a ring rather then you giving him one
AMAZING
always thought the part at 0:57 sounded a lot like chrono trigger, i love it
Blue Lions time to make ourselves known again.

This goes in sweet cover!
I’m not crying, you are....
Damn son the beat goes hard. 1!
Damn, that was good!
Beautiful voice!!!
Scene @0:57 sent chills down my spine
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Now The Heritors of Arcadia or Lost in Thoughts All Alone(?)
Btw, i love it uwu
I love it
MY HEART
Love it
Where my disappointed Silver Snow players at!
(I still liked it, it just felt like Golden Deer without Claude)
do you have the instrumental you used for this?? it's really good
Am I the only one here for Knights of Seiros?
Because honestly except for Crimson Flowers you pretty much have them by your side all the time.
edelgard my beloved
You sound like the original more than the original. props!
Golden deer for live😉
Why do video game endings always make me cry
Fear the deer!
For the Fate of Fodlan
Where are my blue lions at???
Long live Blue Lions!
Can i use your cover for a background song for a vid?
Black EAGLES 🦅
what's the difference between this and lady of hresvelg
Not sure! Other than style differences, they both have the same lyrics it seems?
@@Sapphberry Thanks!I'dd like to let you know your covers are legit bonkers in terms of quality.Hyped for the next one ;)
I don't think there is a difference, I think Girl of Hresvelg was just the direct Japanese translation but The Edge of Dawn is just what it's called in America
(I think)
