苔むす石の 階段を
踏みしめながら 上ってゆく
木漏れ日揺れる 参道の先
誰かがここで 祈っていた
手水の水に 指先浸し
心の埃 そっと落とす
鈴の音 響く 静寂の中
時が止まったような 気がした
何百年も 何千年も
変わらずここに 在り続けた
あなたが今日 ここに立つのも
きっと意味のある 巡り合わせ
千年の灯火 消えぬように
誰かが守って きたんだね
赤い鳥居 くぐる瞬間に
過去と今が つながってゆく
この場所に立つ 私たちも
いつかこの灯り 守る一人に
狛犬たちが 見守る先で
願いを込めて みくじを結ぶ
桜散る春 緑萌ゆる夏
紅葉燃える秋 雪化粧の冬
言葉にならない 想いがある
形のないもの 確かにある
ここに立てば わかる気がする
人は一人じゃ 生きてないと
千年の灯火消えぬように
今日もまた 誰かが祈る
赤い鳥居 くぐるたびに
新しい願い 生まれてゆく
この場所に立つ 私たちも
いつかこの灯火 守る一人に
静かに、ただ、静かに
灯りは今日も ともり続ける

The Thousand-Year Light
A place of prayer passed down through the ages.
Moss-covered stone steps, a path bathed in dappled sunlight, the quiet ringing of a bell.
This Japanese-style ballad depicts the wishes and gratitude that people have woven together over the years, as seen through the eyes of a single visitor to the shrine.
The "light" that has been safeguarded for hundreds, even thousands of years is not merely the shrine's lamp-it is also a symbol of the feelings and bonds passed down from person to person.
The moment you pass through the red torii gate, the past and present connect, and you realize that you, too, are a part of that history-
This song was created with a sense of warmth amidst the silence and a deep respect for Japan's beautiful culture of faith.
It is a song designed to offer a moment to pause and center your mind amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life.
