Lyric

IN FRONT OF THE GRAVE

JIBUN NAGAI

彼が丘から降りて来て私を見つめる

彼が私に向かって少し長い時間手を合わせる

彼が煙草に火を点ける

彼がその煙草を手向けてくる

彼がまた私を見つめる

彼が煙草を吸い終える

彼は最後にもまた少し長い時間私を見つめ深く肯いたのち来た道へと帰って行った

Kenta Nishimura (1967-2022)
Seizo Fujisawa (1889-1932)

Kenta Nishimura, recipient of Japan's prestigious literary award, the Akutagawa Prize, revered the Taishō-era writer Seizo Fujisawa-who endured a life of hardship-as his master. Calling himself a posthumous disciple, Nishimura likewise lived out a life that would prove to be brief.

Master and disciple who never once met face to face. Today, their graves stand side by side in Nanao, Ishikawa Prefecture. From the heavens (or perhaps from beneath the earth), Fujisawa watched over the course of Nishimura's life.

This recording is a creative work: the landscape of Kenta Nishimura as seen through the eyes of Seizo Fujisawa.
