花の咲く音（ね）を聴いて
風の舞う音（ね）を聴く
雨の降る音（ね）月満ちる音（ね）潮干く音（ね）聴く
潮満ちる音に祈り 月欠ける音に祈り 雨止む音に祈り
風止む音に祈り
花散る音に祈る
まだ掴めない 聴こえてない 祈ってない
焦らない人生
誤魔化していない人生
濁っていない人生
急がない人生
けっして焦るな けっして誤魔化すな けっして濁すな
そして けっして急ぐな
人生に近道なんて
けっしてないから
いつだって
自分に合った自分の呼吸で
「愛すこと続けること」
それがいちばん幸せだよ
大切なことはね 「波風立つ 海路（みち）が良い」
本当に聴いているだろうか？ 自分の声に耳を傾けて
本当に聴けているだろうか？ すべての音が色褪せてしまわぬように
「此の理（り）が正しいよ」と自分自身で気づくこと
「不知（しらない）」が見えたら それこそが素晴らしい瞬間（とき）だから
いつも澄んでいて
そして いつも 美しく
「花は咲きたいから咲く」
只 それだけ

Flower Prayer
Naohiko Kishi
The song "Flower Prayer" was born when Naohiko Kishi produced "Akasaka Art Flower '08," which took place from September 10th to October 13th, 2008. The Akasaka area, centered around Akasaka Sacas, Akasaka Hikawa Shrine, the site of a former Japanese restaurant, and the former Akasaka Elementary School, became an exhibition space for works by artists such as Yayoi Kusama and Yoko Ono.
17 years later, at the end of December 2025, Naohiko Kishi and YUKIYOSHI decided to include vocals to complete the true form of "Flower Prayer." The song, which alternates between lyrics and sonnets, was recorded in its completed form on January 4th, 2026. However, after this, YUKIYOSHI would be faced with the extremely troubling task of mixing down the song.
