Lyrics[]
月に羽根を染めた
夜鶯が舞い降り
馨しき憂いの百合へと
問いかける
何故あなたは
夜毎 花を濡らして
美しい宵を
ただ泣いて過ごすの？
それは恋しい人が
娘を抱くから
やさしく触れた指が
忘れられずに
枯れるだけのこの身が
哀れで悲しい
あの人の胸のなか
香れるならば
一夜の命も惜しまぬのに
百合は答え甘く慄える
森の苔の褥
彷徨うのは娘
葉末の間から
夜鶯は訊ねる
何故あなたは
ひとり暗い小径を
茨に血を流し
迷い込んだの？
それは恋しい人が
去って行ったから
移ろい変わるものは
時だけじゃなく
人の愛と心と
知ってしまったの
愛しい腕のなかに
戻れぬならば
もう夢の欠片も見えぬでしょう
長い髪に薄闇が散る
やがて娘は
朽ちた百合の根元に
倒れてその目蓋を
閉じて動かない
乱れるように開く
花の底から
黄金の花粉は降り注ぐ
移ろい揺らぐものが
儚いのなら
清らかなまま昇る
魂はどこへ
白い墓標の上で
囀る夜鶯は
天使の翼に憧れて
一晩中
羽搏きました

Dyed its wings by the moon
The nightingale flies down
And asks the lily of fragrant sorrow
A question
Why are you
Drenching your flowers every night
And spending the beautiful evening
Only crying?
Because the person I'm in love with
Is embracing a girl
Without forgetting
The fingers that he gently touched
This body that is just withering
Is helpless and sad
But if I can be fragrant
Inside the heart of that person
I will not regret my life of this one night
The lily answers by shivering pleasantly
On moss cushion of the forest
The girl is wandering
From between the tips of the leaves
Nightingale asks her
Why are you alone
On this dark, narrow path
Bleeding in the thorns?
Have you lost your way?
Because the person I'm in love with
Has left me
The fading, changing things
Are not only time
But the love and hearts of people
I have known this
If I cannot go back
Into those beloved one's arms
I no longer see the fragments of my dreams anymore
The twilight is falling on her long hair
Soon, the girl
Falls on rotten lily roots
And her eyelids closed
Never to open again
As if it were confusingly opening
From the bottom of the flower
Is a golden pollen that is pouring out
If the fading and shaking things
Are ephemeral
To where will their souls
Ascend purely?
The chirping nightingale
On the white gravestone
Is yearning for the wings of an angel
Throughout the night
The nightingale flapped its wings
