kanji & kana

通りすがりの道の上
俯くようなその蕾
どこのどなたを待つのやら
空を見上げて・・・

やがて　辺りは暮れなずみ
都の色が溶けて行く
胸の思いは影法師
手を伸ばしてる

花鳥風月よ
移り行く自然
悠久の風は
何処（いずこ）から

人目を忍んで
逢瀬（おうせ）重ね
いつかは花咲く
恋心
上弦の月に
見守られ
一途な夢を見る
女は月見草

恋しいお方の足音は
どれだけ待てば近くなる？
数多（あまた）の星が煌いて
愛を誘（いざな）う

今日より長い夏の夜
忘れ去られたこの場所に
忘れられない純情の
白い花が咲く

美しき姿
気高くて・・・
はかなすぎるのは
宿命（さだめ）かな

静かに佇む
思いの丈
このまま抱かれて
散ってくより
朝まで咲いたら
萎みましょう
一夜（ひとよ）の人生よ
女は月見草

あきらめきれない
蜩（ひぐらし）が
ふいに　梢から
鳴き出した

人目を忍んで
逢瀬（おうせ）重ね
いつかは花咲く
恋心
上弦の月に
見守られ
一途な夢を見る
女は月見草

静かに佇む
思いの丈
このまま抱かれて
散ってくより
朝まで咲いたら
萎みましょう
一夜（ひとよ）の人生よ
女は月見草

一夜の夢を見る
女は月見草

english translation

On the road I happen to pass by
That flower that seemed to hang its head in shame
Is it waiting for someone?
It looks up to the sky…

Before long the neighborhood slowly gets dark
The city's color dissolves
The feeling of this chest is a silhouette
Stretching out a hand

The beauties of nature
It comes and goes spontaneously
Eternity's wind
From some place

It conceals itself from the public eye
The meetings add up
One day the flower blooms
An awakening of love
Watched over
By the crescent moon
Wholeheartedly it dreams
A woman is an evening primrose

A beloved person's footsteps
If it just waits, will they come closer?
Many stars glitter
Asking for love

From today onward are a long summer's nights
In this place completely forgotten,
A pure heart that can't forget
A white flower blooms

The beautiful figure
So sublime…
The fact it's too fleeting
I wonder if it's the law

Peacefully it stands still
The extent of a feeling
In that way, it's embraced
From falling
If it blooms until morning
It might wither away
A human life for one night
A woman is an evening primrose

Giving up too much
The cicada
Suddenly from the treetops
Sings out loud

It conceals itself from the public eye
The meetings pile up
One day the flower blooms
An awakening of love
Watched over
By the crescent moon
Wholeheartedly it dreams
A woman is an evening primrose

Peacefully it stands still
The extent of a feeling
In that way, it's embraced
From falling
If it blooms until morning
It might wither away
A human life for one night
A woman is an evening primrose

For one night it dreams
A woman is an evening primrose
