The ballad of Youmu Konpaku (Touhou Project)

https://www.youtube.com/@bit2kingwn In the land of Gensokyo 'neath the whisp'ring trees Dwells a lass with sword in hand Fleeting as a breeze Youmu Konpaku Half ghost as lore doth tell Guarding the Netherworld Where spirits ever dwell With blade of Roukanken Swift as morning light She doth walk 'twixt life and death In the silent night Phantom half behind her Visage pale as snow Guided by the stars above Where the wild winds blow Oh Youmu Shadow maiden fair With your steely gaze and windswept hair From twilight's reach to dawn’s first gleam You walk the path 'twixt world and dream Cherry blossoms falling Sweetly 'pon the ground A realm of rest and respite Where no joy is found Yet in Youmu's heart doth burn a flame so fierce and bright Guiding lost and wandering souls through the endless night duty binds her still In the garden of the ghosts where time is always still Half alive in form so fine Her spirit doth endure A warrior with a noble heart Steadfast and pure Oh Youmu Shadow maiden fair With your steely gaze and windswept hair From twilight's reach to dawn’s first gleam You walk the path 'twixt world and dream
