夏の暑さの中に 涼しさを求めて
今日も見とれている あなたに夢中になる
あなたは本当は熱く 形を変えていく
私の息を吹きこむ 一瞬で変わっていく
そして 人生を生きている 命が生きている
そのことがわかったよ ありがとう 会いたいよ
だから 悲しさも はかなさも 戻れない 戻らない
時間を…
この胸にとじこめるように
形あるものは いずれ無くなるとわかってる
だけど 本当はどうなんだろう？
本当は なくならないんじゃない？
そして 人生を生きている 命が生きている
そのことがわかったよ
あなたのかわりに言うよ
だから 今だけは…
この暑さの中で…
この胸にとじこめるように
この暑さの中で…
この胸にとじこめるように

SOUL / in my glass
Kei Daikouji
SOUL / in my glass
August 15th, 2020 - the anniversary of the end of World War II.
At Atsugi Glass Studio in Kanagawa, Japan, Kei Daikouji tried glassblowing for the first time.
As she gently blew air into the molten glass, the glass artist beside her said:
Right now, you've just breathed life into it.
Glass melts at 1400 degrees Celsius. The studio was sweltering in the summer heat.
In a single breath, a shape was born - and with it, a spark of life.
That vivid moment deeply moved her, and this song was born from that feeling.
All visible things eventually break.
But perhaps true soul and the meaning of existence remain quietly within our hearts.
This song is a gentle prayer and reflection on that idea.
SOUL / in my glass will also be featured in the original musical
Kesaran Pasaran - I Found You Inside Me, scheduled to premiere in December 2025.
This is the first musical composed entirely of Kei Daikouji's original songs, and this track plays a key role in one of the most important scenes.
Delicate as glass, yet full of warmth -
may this song bring a small, shining spark of soul into your heart.
