Beneath the swaying cherry blossoms, I wait for you
As the moonlight casts shadows on the ground
Your gaze pierces through my heart
Like a fleeting dream of an ethereal night
Time flows and drifts away
Love and dreams dissolve in the moment's hue
Clad in robes of violet silk
I reached out for you, but you slipped away
Purple winds are blowing through the night
Fate’s threads tangle, leaving no escape
Light and shadow, love and sin
We dance together in a dream we cannot wake
Petals of a fragile love scatter in the wind
I swore to protect you under the starry sky
But the future fades like a distant mist
A burning heart meets a cooling destiny
Your haunting voice pulls at me
Tearing apart this restless longing
Purple smoke swirls in the air
Leading me to distant echoes of our past
Purple winds are blowing through the night
Only love remains, a phantom in my soul
Bonds and traps, lies and truth
A beautiful elegy of everything we were……we were
Oh, purple winds, carry my heart away
Let it reach the one I can no longer hold
Love and regret, dream and reality
The deeper I live, the richer our story unfolds
The silent streets of Kyoto fade to gray
Calling your name
I stand alone and weep
