Lyrics
Kanji= 茜さす 遠き夢

刻を綴り今宵も照らす

ぬばたまの 満月と

たおやかに萌えいずる我が心

朧気に揺らめいた

泡沫の架け橋に

薄紅の陽炎が

儚く寄り添い風を辿る

見据えた瞳で

限りのない道といえど

歩み止めずに

伝えよ秘めた思いを

茜さす遠き夢

刻を紡ぎ今宵彩る

ぬばたまの満月と

たおやかに萌えいずる我が心

星冴ゆる蒼い空

しろたへの 波に映し

幾千に散りばめた

輝き導き

胸をはじく

折しも蛍火

祭囃子鳴りはためき

麗しき都

黄金に今染めてゆく

茜さす遠き夢

刻を綴り今宵も照らす

ぬばたまの満月と

たおやかに萌えいずる我が心

茜さす遠き夢

刻を紡ぎ今宵彩る

ぬばたまの満月と

たおやかに萌えいずる我が心

その祈りいみじけれ

枝垂れ桜あながちに咲く

凄艶爛漫慈しみ

天仰ぎ描いてる夢旅路

English= The faraway dream that is shining madder red

Is writing down the moments and shining tonight.

The full moon and

My heart begin to rise gracefully.

On the vaguely wavering bridge

That is ephemeral like bubbles,

The pink-colored heat haze

Snuggles faintly and follows the wind.

With my eyes staring fixedly,

Although it's an endless way,

Without stopping my walking,

I certainly will convey the feeling kept in my heart.

The faraway dream that is shining madder red

Is spinning off the moments and colors tonight.

The full moon and

My heart begin to rise gracefully.

The starry sky that is clear and blue

Is reflected on the waves.

The thousands of the scattering sparkles

Guide me and

Flick my heart.

Just then, glows of fireflies come into my view,

And a festival music resounds through.

Now my lovely city

Is gradually dyed in gold by them.

The faraway dream that is shining madder red

Is writing down the moments and shining tonight.

The full moon and

My heart begin to rise gracefully.

The faraway dream that is shining madder red

Is spinning off the moments and colors tonight.

The full moon and

My heart begin to rise gracefully.

What strong prayers they are!

The branch-dropping cherry blossoms have bloomed steadily.

Cherishing these enchantingly beautiful flowers in full bloom,

I picture my dream journey and look up at the heavens.
