modern Japanese ambient pop, cinematic ambient, traditional Japanese fusion

Where Petals Fade into Night
[Intro]
(soft koto, wind chimes)
Drifting... drifting...
Is this a dream, or waking life——
[Verse 1]
Lantern light sways in the evening lane
A single tower fades into the haze
I turn to look back — but for whom?
A gaze as soft as falling blossoms
Spring's shadow spills across my sleeve
I follow a wind without a name
Tracing the outline of distant memory
Walking alone through a dreaming world
[Pre-Chorus]
Ah... if this world is nothing
but a fleeting illusion——
[Chorus]
Bloom, oh flower — dance in the night
Let your fragile life burn bright
In the single moment of your smile
Everything becomes eternal
When the wind stirs, shadows tremble
My longing dissolves into the sky
I hold close the voice that never reached you
And still — I am here
[Verse 2]
Gazing up through a crimson parasol
Time slips away with the drifting clouds
Standing at the edge of twilight
My own self begins to waver
A distant bell seems to call my name
Those days that passed will never return
Even so, I keep walking forward
Until the last petal falls
[Bridge]
If this is a dream — let me never wake
If this is real — let nothing fade
If even prayers go unanswered
Then let me simply remain beautiful
[Final Chorus]
Bloom, oh flower — stain the night
Vivid, because you cannot last
Beyond the moment you turn to face me
I need no tomorrow
When the wind blows, it leaves no name
My longing melts into the dark
Yet I was truly here — undeniably
A petal in the evening shadow
[Outro]
Drifting... drifting...
The dream scatters and is gone——

[Intro] （静かな琴と風鈴）はらり、はらり夢か現（うつつ）か―― [Verse 1] 宵の路地（ろじ）に　灯（あか）り揺れ霞む空には　塔ひとつ振り返りしは　誰（た）がためか淡きまなざし　花のごと袖にこぼるる　春の影名もなき風に　誘（いざな）われ遠き記憶を　なぞるよにひとり歩むは　夢の中 [Pre-Chorus] 嗚呼（ああ）、この世は移ろいのひとときの幻ならば [Chorus] 咲き誇れ　花よ　宵に舞え儚き命　燃ゆるほど君が微笑む　その刹那すべてが　永久（とわ）となる風吹けば　影は揺れ想いは　空へと溶けゆく届かぬ声を　抱きしめてただ　ここに在り [Verse 2] 朱（あけ）の傘越し　見上げれば流るる雲に　時は消ゆ誰そ彼（たそがれ）どきの　境（さかい）にて我が身ひとつが　揺れている鈴の音（ね）遠く　呼ぶごとし過ぎし日々など　戻らぬとそれでも尚（なお）　歩みゆく花の命の　尽きるまで [Bridge] 夢ならば　覚めぬように現（うつつ）ならば　散らぬように祈ることすら　叶わぬならせめてこのまま　美しく [Final Chorus] 咲き誇れ　花よ　夜を染め儚きほどに　鮮やかに君が振り向く　その先に明日（あす）など　いらぬから風吹けば　名を残さず想いは　闇へと溶けゆくそれでも確かに　ここにいた花影（はなかげ）の宵 [Outro] はらり、はらり夢は散りゆく―― Where Petals Fade into Night [Intro] (soft koto, wind chimes) Drifting... drifting...
