Lyrics

Long Version

Japanese

　

　春深く夢の輪郭を
　ぼかして　行き過ぎて　舞い戻る　
　花びらは仕草を追いかけ
　薄明かりの下で　密やか

　つまさきであやす月の兎は踊り
　星の間を飛び回る　口笛吹き

　飛沫　あがる
　わたし　掛ける
　追いかける星は
　まわる　まわる　ちいさなつぼみ

　さいて　さいて　月にお願い
　おだやかな影に薄化粧
　しらず　しらず　えいや！と投げた
　つぼみは行方知れず　のまま

　見下ろして小さくなった雲の間に
　芽を出した線香花火　つぶらな夢

　飛沫　あがる
　火花　翔る
　問いかけた星は
　かわる　がわる　顔を変えた

　さいて　さいて　くるりとまわる
　舞姫の如く　たまゆらに
　思い思いに動く影と
　背中を合わせて　（ああ）　走る！

　弧を描き　影は延びる
　陽炎の先に
　さいた　あった！　まあるい花が

　さいた　さいた　星の欠片が
　月の裏側で泣いていた
　気付かぬうちに　隠れていた兎も
　また弧　描く

　さいて　さいて　月にお願い
　おだやかな影に薄化粧
　しらず　しらず　えいや！と投げた
　つぼみは　行方知れず

　さいて　さいた　風に揺られて
　おだやかな坂は薄化粧
　下駄鳴らして口笛合わせ
　凛として　はんなりの　こころ
