歌詞

狂い咲いた月の花
不意に目覚めた夜に
淡く霞むその影は
今はもう胸の奥

遥か遠く臨んだ世界へと
時を廻る螺旋の果てに

届かない想いならば
せめてこの手で壊して 嗚呼
繰り返す痛みを引き連れ叫ぶ
この空に満ちてく幻

涙に濡れるその瞳 美しく煌めく

いつか還るこの流転の業に
爛れ続く心は沈みゆく

目の前に広がる景色さえ
滲んで消えてく夢の中で
手繰り寄せる幾千の眠りと
鮮やかに散る花びらを抱き

叶わない願いならば
どうかその手を離して 嗚呼
微笑みに染まる記憶の彼方で
閉じ込めた苦患に暮れる

届かない想いならば
せめてこの手で壊して 嗚呼
溢れ出す愛しさに溺れて
戻れないあの日と引き換えに
差し出そうこの魂 儚さに揺れる

Romanisation

kurui saita tsuki no hana
fui ni mezameta yoru ni
awaku kasumu sono kage wa
ima wa mou mune no oku

haruka tooku nozonda sekai e to
toki o meguru rasen no hate ni

todokanai omoi naraba
semete kono te de kowashite aa
kurikaesu itami o hikitsure sakebu
kono sora ni michiteku maboroshi

namida ni nureru sono hitomi utsukushiku kirameku

itsuka kaeru kono ruten no gou ni
tadare tsudzuku kokoro wa shizumi yuku

me no mae ni hirogaru keshiki sae
nijinde kieteku yume no naka de
taguri yoseru ikusen no nemuri to
azayaka ni chiru hanabira o daki

kanawanai negai naraba
douka sono te o hanashite aa
hohoemi ni somaru kioku no kanata de
tojikometa kugen ni kureru

todokanai omoi naraba
semete kono te de kowashite aa
afuredasu itoshisa ni oborete
modorenai ano hi to hikikae ni
sashidasou kono inochi hakanasa ni yureru

Translation

The moon flowers were blooming out of season.
That night, I woke suddenly.
Your silhouette, shrouded in a light haze,
was already in my heart.

Heading to the distant world I looked out at,
I travel to the end of a helix turning through time.

If my feelings won’t reach you
then I’d rather destroy them myself. Ah…
I take this repeating pain with me and call
to the illusions filling the sky.

Your eyes, overflowing with tears, sparkle beautifully.

I will someday return to this continuously changing karma.
My aching heart begins to sink into it.

Even the landscape I see in front of me
blurs and fades away in this dream.
I embrace the thousands of dreams I pull in
and the brilliantly scattering petals.

If my wish won’t be granted,
then please let go. Ah…
I am sunken in imprisoned agony
beyond memories stained with smiles.

If my feelings won’t reach you
then I’d rather destroy them myself. Ah…
I drown in overflowing beauty.
In exchange for the days I cannot return to
I’ll hold out my soul, which will waver in this transience. (1)


Translator’s note

(1) 魂 (tamashii, soul) is written, but 命 (inochi, life) is sung.
