Hymn of the ormorant and the cormorant

うぐ えり

♪ ♪ ♪

鶯の王子が 山奥で歌う

ホーホケキョ

触れられなかった真実の殻

ただ影を見つめて

別れと桜の香りの混じる夜

宇宙は愛であり 神でもあった

姥桜が痛みを隠した

偏見は今も生きている

馬の耳に念仏

Let's straighten our collars, take the brush

鶉の王子が 草むらで歌う

チョットコイ

触れられた真実の殻

ただ光だけを見つめて

狂った少年は旅をしながら 線を引いている

裏馴染との ひそやかな夜

絵女房に祈りを捧げる

言葉はただの情報ではない

両手で抱きしめよう

It’s the distilled emotion

浮気な鰻

有見無見の裏約束

打ち解けても会者定離

すべてあった

うつらうつらと歩いていく

書の深淵から やさしい鳥たちの声

「Come back again, you looked beautiful today」

書の深淵から やさしい鳥たちの声

「Come back again, you looked beautiful today」

Hymn of the Warbler and the Quail
- Dictionary Journey × Kneeking Records -

The warbler that heralds spring,
and the quail hidden among the summer grass.
When their voices intertwine, words become prayer.

"From the depths of calligraphy, gentle birds sing."
The life dwelling in dictionary pages breathes as music.

Inspired by Dictionary Journey through Kojien Vol.7,
from "Ugu" to "Eri," this work sings of shadow and light,
of pain, love, and the quiet flame of hope.
May you feel the prayer that burns in silence.

Kneeking Records / Written by Guwashi

Artist Profile

  • kneeking Records

    Kneeking Records is an independent music label that transforms The Dictionary Journey into sound. The label was founded by Yoshihiro Sato, a calligrapher, a lifelong dictionary traveler, and a former kickboxing world champion. Since 2013, he has been reading Japanese dictionaries page by page writing, reflecting, and sharing words every single day. In 2025, those accumulated words and rhythms began to take musical form. The Dictionary Journey continues to this day, growing quietly and steadily, with each new word adding another layer to its living archive. Kneeking Records moves freely across genres Reggae, J-Pop, R&B, Soul, House, Gospel, Funk, Ska, and at times even Punk Rock always in pursuit of sounds that feel good to the ear. Through the rhythm of language and the intersection of calligraphy and voice, the label delivers music shaped by a distinctly personal sensibility. Before words become meaning, they already have sound. Before sound is explained, it reaches the heart. Trusting that moment, Kneeking Records keeps turning pages and keeps letting the music speak.
