山ぎわに スズが鳴る
ホコラのマエで 風が止まる
父のカタナは まつられ
静かに トキをとめる
あぜみちに 子らの声
遠くで クワの音がする
貴方が守ったものは
この ありふれた日々
ホコラの前で
カタナを見つめ
問いかける
俺は
父のように
立てるだろうか…
守るとは
戦うことなのか
それとも
この日々を
続けることなのか？
眠れ
ホコラの刃よ
この村が
平和である限り
目覚めるな
父のカタナ
この風が
続く限り
田をタガヤし
土に触れ
子どもたちの声を聞く
父の背中は
もういない
けれど
貴方が守った
この村は
ここにある
父よ…
俺はまだ
迷っている
もし
その日が来たなら
俺は 逃げない
だが願う
来るな…
その日よ
眠れ
ホコラのカタナよ
戦うためではなく
守るための刃
この村が
笑っている限り
目覚めるな
イクサのカタナよ
山の風が
ホコラを撫でる
父の刃よ
目覚めるな……
明日も眠れ

Samurai Soul - Chapter 4 - Let the Blade Sleep
HOTAKA.WORLD.MUSIC
After the battle, peace returns to the village.
In a mountain shrine, a single sword rests.
Once wielded by a fallen samurai who gave his life to protect his people,
it now stands as a sacred blade - a guardian of peace.
Before the shrine, his son stands in silence.
Questioning whether he can ever become the man his father was.
Yet he does not draw the sword.
Because what he truly wishes for
is that the day never comes when it must be used.
Built on gentle piano, airy shakuhachi, and subtle ambient sound,
this piece features a calm and deeply expressive male vocal,
telling a story of restraint, legacy, and the quiet strength of those who choose not to fight.
What does it truly mean to protect?
The answer still lingers in the wind.
