Japanese 	Romaji 	English
揺らめく水底に 	yurameku minasoko ni 	At the bottom of the flickering river,
響く　誰かの声 	hibiku dareka no koe 	there resounds a voice.
私を　呼んでいるの？ 	watashi o yonde iru no? 	Is it calling out to me?
せせらぎの向こうから…… 	seseragi no mukou kara…… 	From the other side of the stream...
 	 	
岸辺に佇む面影 	kishibe ni tatazumu omokage 	On the bank, I can see the face of someone standing there.
薄明かりに霞んで　見えないわ 	usu akari ni kasunde mienai wa 	But it's blurred in the dim light and I can't make it out.
伸ばした手の　その先は 	nobashitate no sono saki wa 	I reached out my hand
果てのない闇に　溶けていく 	hate no nai yami ni tokete iku 	and it melted into the endless darkness.
 	 	
星の隠れた夜に　あなたを想い歌う 	hoshi no kakureta yoru ni anata o omoi utau 	On the night when the stars hide, I think of you and sing.
聴こえているのなら、瞬き返して…… 	kikoete iru no nara, mabataki kaeshite…… 	If you can hear me, blink back at me...
幾年の夜を越え　偲び歌は響く 	ikutose no yoru o koe shinobiu uta wa hibiku 	This song of recollection resounds after passing through many thousand nights.
愛しい彼の星に　祈りが届くまで 	itoshii ka no hoshi ni inori ga todoku made 	I will keep singing until my prayers reach my beloved among the stars.
 	 	
煌めく川を越えて　あなたは星になった 	kirameku kawa o koete anata wa hoshi ni natta 	You crossed the shimmering river and became a star.
聴こえているのでしょう？　私の祈りが…… 	kikoete iru no deshou? watashi no inori ga…… 	Can you hear them, I wonder? My prayers...
浮世の沙汰を終えて　幸せな旅路へ 	ukiyo no sata o oete shiawase na tabiji e 	You settled your affairs with this transient world and set out on a joyful journey.
私も織姫となり 	watashi mo hoshi to nari 	I too shall become a star"織姫" and "彦星" are both stars' names meaning Vega (α Lyrae) and Altair (α Aquilae) respectively. In Sinosphere, they are linked to a folk story called "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl". The couple was banished to opposite shores of the galaxy river for violating the heavenly rule and was only allowed to meet once a year. On that very day, the 7th day of the 7th month of Lunar calendar ("七夕". However, in Japan, it was changed to the same date of Gregorian calendar after Meiji calendar reform), a flock of magpies form a bridge across the galaxy and link the couple together.
あなたの待つ場所へ…… 	anata no matsu basho e…… 	and go to where you are waiting...
 	 	
輝く塵を纏い　彦星を探し歌う 	kagayaku chiri o matoi anata o sagashi utau 	Clad in shining dust, I search for you and sing.
聴こえているのなら、瞬き返して…… 	kikoete iru no nara, mabataki kaeshite…… 	If you can hear me, blink back at me...
鵲よ導いて　彼の人の星まで 	kasasagi yo michibii te ka no hito no hoshi made 	Oh magpie, lead me to my loved one's star.
彦星が待っている…… 	anata ga matte iru…… 	My dear is waiting...
 	 	
愛しいその場所へ……行こう 	itoshii sono basho e…… yukou 	Let us go... to that place of love.
 	 	
星降る夏の夜に　輝く二つの星　【遥かなる眠りへ……】 	hoshi furu natsu no yoru ni kagayaku futatsu no hoshi "haruka naru nemuri e……"	On a summer night with shooting stars, two stars shine. (We are falling into distant slumber...)
寄り添い　睦み合う　【ともに……】 	yorisoi mutsumi au "tomo ni……" 	We nestle close together in harmony. (Together...)
燃え尽きる日まで 	moetsukiru hi made 	Until the day we burn out...
 	 	
幾年の夜を越え　偲び歌は届く 	ikutose no yoru o koe shinobiu uta wa todoku 	This song of recollection reaches you after passing through many thousand nights.
儚き星たちが　安らかに瞬く 	hakanaki hoshi tachi ga yasuraka ni mabataku 	The ephemeral stars twinkle tranquilly.
 	 	
永遠の眠りへ…… 	eien no nemuri e…… 	Now we fall into eternal slumber...
