Cherry blossoms sway,
Mirror dances with colors—
Twilight whispers blue.
桜舞う
鏡に踊る色—
囁く蒼

Crescent on the sea,
Golden dusk kisses green hills,
Quiet harbors dream.
月に抱かれ、
黄金の夕暮れが
緑の丘を吻ぶ。静かな港が夢見る。

Turquoise waves whisper,
Gray sands meet lush green hillside,
Sky`s vast canopy.
ターコイズの波、
緑が丘に灰砂、
空の大広間。

In dim blue shadows,
Steel whispers under one light—
Echoes of old dreams.
薄青の影
一灯に鋼の囁き—
昔の夢の響き

Moss blooms in soft green,
Whispers of water cascade,
Bridge hugs nature`s grace.

苔が柔らかく咲く、
水のささやきが流れ、
橋は自然の優雅さを抱く。

Steel giants by glistening waves—

Torii gates stand tall,
Whispered tales in dappled light,
Painted stones speak life.
鳥居そびえ
語りかける木漏れ日
彩る石たち

Rust red stands so bold,
Gentle cats weave through the grey,
Peace in urban hues.

錆びた赤は、
灰色をぬって歩む、
街の平和。
