An ancient compass points toward the Far East
Across the dawn, beyond the ocean blue
A green island hidden from the old maps
Where the first golden sunlight breaks through
Through the mist, the sacred white peak stands so high
A maiko's silhouette softly passing by
Walking these streets where a thousand years remain
I pray to the rising sun in Zipangu's sky
Let the golden light wash my weary soul clean
The wind whispers, "Open your eyes and see"
Across the sea, this is where I'm meant to be
Bamboo forests sway and speak an ancient tongue
Golden shrines where old secrets still remain
They called this place a fairy tale, a beautiful dream
But the morning air tells me it's real again
Changing colors glow with an eternal grace
Spring cherry blossoms, autumn's fiery face
I can't go back, my heart has found its home
No longer lost, no longer bound to roam
I pray to the rising sun in Zipangu's sky
Let the golden light wash my weary soul clean
The wind whispers, "Open your eyes and see"
Across the sea, this is where I'm meant to be
Through thousands of nights, the light has survived
The miracle of four seasons comes alive
The answer I was searching for
Is dancing right before my eyes
I pray to the rising sun in Zipangu's sky
Let the golden light wash my weary soul clean
The wind is shouting, "This is your destiny!"
Across the sea, I've finally found my peace

Route62
Welcome to Zipangu is Route62's second album, a musical journey through Japan as seen through the eyes of a 62-year-old Japanese artist.
From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo and the rain-soaked avenues of Osaka to the timeless beauty of Kyoto and the landscapes of Japan, the album explores love, memories, encounters, and the passing of time.
Blending 80s-inspired AOR, pop rock, and cinematic melodies with distinctly Japanese imagery, Route62 presents a different side of Japan-not simply as a place to visit, but as a place filled with stories, emotions, and memories.
Welcome to Zipangu.
A journey through Japan, one song at a time.
