白んだ雪山から 枯れ木を耐え抜く 衣を仕立てる

欠けることなき対と 騒めく都の階段 歩こう

揺れる炎を身に纏って 守るために切り裂く 波間

繰り返すは元の木阿弥 整然とされた海を行く

明日は誰に後ろ向いて 手の鳴る方へと

旅路 指し示す

鬼はいつも 始まりから続く

前科に押され 朽ちて行く

落ちた枯葉 集めるなら

種を蒔き 水をやり 春を待つ

いつか光開けるなら 過去に怯えなくていい

不完全でいい

類のないあなたを 咲き誇れ

嗚呼 嗚呼 嗚呼 嗚呼

霞んだ朝露から 芽吹いた香りに明かりの重なり

五里霧中なる狐は 彼岸を探すも燻る雪跡

揺れる蒼葉に浮かれる者 旅立ちの日を弔う者

喜びと悲しみを胸に携え 巡り合わせを行く

遥か遠き 道なき果て

土に眠るさなぎを 耐え忍ぶ

かじかむ指 伸ばしてみた

まだ知らぬ行き先に 光差す

課した歩みも通り雨 逃げ続けるだけは 命渇く

いつか灰に散り行くなら

卑しめられたっていい 綺麗じゃなくていい

あなたの花を高く 咲き誇れ

夜から逃れ 身を潜め 遠のく音

越えねばならぬ峠は 来た道

三歩進めど二歩下がる 茨の向こう 咲く花見よう

まだまだ行こう

明日は誰に後ろ向いて 手の鳴る方へと

旅路 指し示す

鬼はいつも 始まりから続く

前科に押され 朽ちて行く

落ちた枯葉 集めるなら

種を蒔き 水をやり 春を待つ

いつか光開けるなら すべてを受け止めて

青空を仰ぐ

遥か遠き 道なき果て

土に眠るさなぎを 耐え忍ぶ

かじかむ指 伸ばしてみた

まだ知らぬ行き先に 光差す

課した歩みも通り雨 逃げ続けるだけは 命渇く

いつか灰に散り行くなら

卑しめられたっていい 綺麗じゃなくていい

あなたの花を高く 咲き誇れ

嗚呼 嗚呼 嗚呼 嗚呼

Ah

 From the white mountains I come

braving forests of dead trees

I adjust my robe and check my belongings

and climb the steps towards the bustling city

A flickering fire coils around me

Waves crash upon me and put out the flames

Pacing back and forth will leave me right where I started

and so I head towards the calm sea

The future looks back upon me and points me down a path

Demons, haunted by past sins

rot and are forgotten with the passage of time

Gather the dead leaves, sow the seeds, give water

and wait for spring

Some day dawn will come, there’s no need to fear

It’s alright if you’re imperfect

You, the only one in this world, will blossom in full glory

A budding fragrance wafts through the morning mist

illuminated by a gentle glow

Among the scorched snow

a lost fox searches for the path to nirvana

There are those who celebrate the fluttering of green sprouts

And those who mourn for the departed

Carrying joy and sorrow in my heart

I go to meet my fate

Far away in the distance where the road ends

A chrysalis sleeps in the ground

I try to stretch out my fingers, numb from the cold

And an unknown path lights up before me

Counting steps cheapens it to fleeting rain

Don’t waste the days running away

If the end is to become ash scattered in the wind

Even if hideous and looked down upon

Let your flower bloom tall and proud

Flee from the night and hide in the shadows

As all sounds fade away in the distance

Overcome the mountain pass and continue on the path

Three steps forward, two steps back

Beyond the wall of thorns are flowers in full bloom

Let us go to them

The future looks back upon me and points me down a path

Demons, haunted by past sins rot and are forgotten with the passage of time

Gather the dead leaves, sow the seeds, give water and wait for spring

Some day dawn will come

Take everything life throws at you and gaze up at the blue sky

Far away in the distance where the road ends

A chrysalis sleeps in the ground

I try to stretch out my fingers, numb from the cold

And an unknown path lights up before me

Counting steps cheapens it to fleeting rain

Don’t waste the days running away

If the end is to become ash scattered in the wind

Even if hideous and looked down upon

Let your flower bloom tall and proud
