Lyrics

Japanese (full version)

　

　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

Trivia

• 凛として咲く花の如く is the first (and currently only) song to appear in at least one version each of beatmania IIDX, Dance Dance Revolution, GuitarFreaks & DrumMania, jubeat, and pop'n music.
• The Guitar Freaks & DrumMania version is a cut of the long version found in the pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE Soundtrack, and the DDR version is a shortened version of the GF/DM cut.
• The beatmania IIDX version is a combination of both the pop'n music version and the GFDM version.
• While Tomosuke was performing at beatnation summit alongside DJ Yoshitaka, he was wearing a graphic T-shirt depicting Kanoko's face and "Nadeshiko Rock" written in katakana. This was confirmed by Tomosuke via his i-revo blog.
• The REFLEC BEAT version is 19 seconds shorter, mostly cutting out the intro.
