Hajime Chitose: Sen no Yoru to Sen no Hiru
03.06.18
Artist: Hajime Chitose Title: Sen no Yoru to Sen no Hiru (A Thousand Days and A Thousand Nights) Words: Ueda Gen Music: Ueda Gen Even if you continue your search for your lost wings, they're nowhere to be found. And even if you bring time to a stand still, you see, the stars still move. Your words, prayers, balloons and bouquets, none of it reaches. Through a thousand days and a thousand nights, the dream crossing the Milky Way flowing with light is left behind, buried in the plants. What do you see from atop the crumbling tower... I wish you'd smile at me. Look, I've prepared all these things. *1 I thought I could give them back to that sky I've thought of many things. To the forest beyond the forest To the sea beyond the sea We go out we gather, we gather we pray Pray and decorate, search and wish upon... The last thing I gave was a silver umbrella which showed the blue of the sea. Now, opening the umbrella in your right hand, you take the wind and float away. Through a thousand days and a thousand nights crossing the Milky Way flowing with light. Through a thousand days and a thousand nights. Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma Translator's Notes: This is the same writer songwriter (Ueda) who brought us Hajime's first big hit 'Wadatsumi no Ki'. We change the order of "nights and days" to "days and nights". It merely sounds better. On to the *. *1 - All these thing to make you smile.
