Lyric

karankoron (English Ver.)

Liminal Reverie

Karan koron

The sound of geta

Only our fingertips

Fall in love

Karan koron

Beneath the moon

The name I cannot call

Burns inside me

A black lacquered palanquin

Behind the bamboo screen

A perfect neckline

A glimpse of pale skin

Hair shining softly

With fragrant oil

One single hairpin

Sets the night in place

Incense smoke

Curls around your sleeves

The sweetness of sake

Hides inside your breath

The more you smile

The deeper your heart retreats

Eyes that can only watch

Fill the street

Behind the lattice

A crimson light

A distant chime

And my heart won't rest

Karan koron

The sound of geta

Only our fingertips

Fall in love

Karan koron

Beneath the moon

The name I cannot call

Burns inside me

Moonlight comes undone

Upon the water

Wet stone streets

Shine in the night

Only you—

I pretend

Not to see

Though pretending

Has never fooled my heart

I tighten my obi

Pull the knot firm

As if I could bind

A heart that won't come loose

I offer you sake

Our little fingers touch

My index finger

Measures the space

Between us

Beyond the curtain

No voice calls my name

Still I wait

Still I wait

Just once—

Behind that smile

I want you

To look at me

With your true eyes

Sweet perfume

Cold moon

Only the footsteps

Keep moving on

Karan koron

Karan koron

Love waits

Outside the house

Karan koron

The sound of geta

Only our fingertips

Fall in love

Karan koron

Beneath the moon

The name I cannot call

Burns inside me

    Lyric

**EDO LOFI - INTERNATIONAL BEST -**

The sound had already crossed the sea.

Now, the stories follow.

*EDO LOFI - INTERNATIONAL BEST -* brings together 13 selected tracks from EDO LOFI, reimagined with English lyrics for listeners around the world.

Samurai carrying their pride beneath the word **MAKOTO**.
A blade waiting inside its sheath in **KIRISUTE GOMEN**.
Demons, gamblers, festivals, forbidden love, and women gazing beyond the walls of Yoshiwara.

These are stories born from the streets, legends, nights, and imagination of Edo.

Traditional Japanese sounds such as shamisen, koto, and taiko meet hip-hop, boom bap, and modern beats, while the lyrics carry the characters and emotions behind the music into a new language.

Some Japanese words remain untranslated.

**MAKOTO.
KIRISUTE GOMEN.
ISSEN.
UKIYO.
CHO or HAN.**

Because some things belong to the world they came from.

You heard the sound.

Now hear the story.

**Welcome to EDO LOFI.**
