Hikari no Kōri || Cradle of Light

Translation at the bottom 🎧 Thank you for listening #### 🎶 **Verse 1** In the hush of twilight trees Where secrets sleep and spirits breathe She floats on petals born of light A whisper carried through the night A single bloom within her palms Gathers every silent psalm #### 🌸 **Pre-Chorus** 蛍（ほたる）の道を照らす 静けさを纏（まと）いながら 願い事の花を その手でそっと守ってた 言葉なきまじないで 闇に祈りを捧げた *Hotaru no michi o terasu Shizukesa o matoi nagara Negaigoto no hana o Sono te de sotto mamotteta Kotoba naki majinai de Yami ni inori o sasageta* > *She lit the firefly path, cloaked in stillness, guarding the wish-flower with a wordless spell—a prayer cast into the dark.* #### 💫 **Chorus** Fly high, fairy of the silent moon 運命（うんめい）さえ超えて (Unmei sae koete) With golden wings, you cradle truth 闇を照らす (Yami o terasu) You're the dream we lose too soon But the light remains with you 願いがそっと羽ばたく (Negai ga sotto habataku) 静寂（しじま）こそが 風を呼ぶ #### 🌲 **Verse 2** 銀の髪が風に踊る 影を優しく包んで 鼓動のない時間の中 彼女だけが動いてた 忘れられた森の奥 今も物語は生きてる *Gin no kami ga kaze ni odoru Kage o yasashiku tsutsunde Kodō no nai jikan no naka Kanojo dake ga ugoiteta Wasurerareta mori no oku Ima mo monogatari wa ikiteru* > *Her silver hair danced in the wind, tenderly cradling shadows in the forest that time forgot, her story still breathes.* #### 🎶 **Bridge** If you blink, she’s gone (消えてくように...) Like a flame that sings its final song (最後の歌...) But every leaf that falls remembers The night she turned our pain to embers Her echo rides the misty rain And paints with stars what can’t remain #### ✨ **Final Chorus (Bilingual, expanded with lifted tempo)** Shine on, keeper of the forest’s dream 眠れぬ星を抱いて (Nemurenu hoshi o daite) You loved the world without a sound 命の声 (Inochi no koe) Now her wings are all around Stillness makes the strongest sound 夢の余韻が残る空へ (Yume no yoin ga nokoru sora e) 羽ばたけ、忘れじの詩（うた）よ ——————————— //**[Verse 1]**// In the hush of twilight trees Where secrets sleep and spirits breathe She floats on petals born of light A whisper carried through the night A single bloom within her palms Gathers every silent psalm //**[Pre-Chorus]**// She lit the firefly path, cloaked in stillness, Guarding the wish-flower with a wordless spell— A prayer cast into the dark. //**[Chorus]**// Fly high, fairy of the silent moon Even fate can’t hold you down With golden wings, you cradle truth Illuminating all the dark You're the dream we lose too soon But the light remains with you A wish takes flight on quiet winds For it is silence that calls the breeze //**[Verse 2]**// Her silver hair danced in the wind Cradling shadows, soft and thin Within a time where heartbeats cease She moved alone in endless peace Deep in the woods the world forgot Her story breathes—it’s not yet lost //**[Bridge]**// If you blink, she’s gone Like a flame that sings its final song But every leaf that falls remembers The night she turned our pain to embers Her echo rides the misty rain And paints with stars what can’t remain //**[Final Chorus]**// Shine on, keeper of the forest’s dream Embracing sleepless stars above You loved this world without a sound The voice of life, so soft, so tough Now her wings are all around Stillness makes the strongest sound To skies where dream’s echoes remain Fly on, song we’ll never forget again
