Lyric

The sound of the bell echoes in the sky

The morning light sways so soft and shy

With a prayer deep inside my heart

Let there be light for everyone, a brand new start

The sound of footsteps through the Torii gate

Echoing through the town, it’s not too late

Entrusting every wish to the divine

Carried by the wind, let them truly shine

Join your palms and gently close your eyes

Feel the warmth beneath the open skies

Let the sadness and the worries flow away

Find the kindness in your soul today

May happiness find its way to you

Wrapped in the shrine’s light, pure and true

Just as a smile brings people close and near

May the light of prayer never disappear

Under the spring sky where cherry blossoms fly

Memories are dancing, passing by

The ring of the bell vibrates in my soul

As the gentle light begins to make me whole

Moonlight shining down upon the way

The voice of prayer melts into the day

Watching over us, so soft and still

Beyond the time, with a peaceful will

May happiness continue evermore

Illuminating the world from shore to shore

Turning even tears into a golden ray

May the light of prayer never fade away

The wind carries every human plea

Rising to the sky for all to see, a light so free

May happiness bloom in full and grand

An eternal flame across the land

To the future sky where smiles always stay

From the bottom of my heart, I’ll always pray

Let there be light for everyone

May every day be peaceful, like the rising sun
