Kamaitachi

Written by Yasutaka Nakata
Arrangement: Yasutaka Nakata

Hypnotic hypnotic, the wind gently blows on a beautiful spring day
beyond Mt. Penglai1, it heads to the future bringing good fortune
Shining shining, the sun rises and my jasmine tea smells sweet
They say the more I fall in love, the closer I'll be to my dreams

Shalalan rin rin proud in love

Kaminari2, Kamaitachi3, at the speed of an electric shock
You saw through my love, but these threads can't be broken
A whirlwind of change blows and though my heart stumbles
that curse won't hurt, a faint love on Kamakiri-zaka4

Hypnotic hypnotic, my brain sleepy, gotta clear my head
My heart was as empty as a vacuum tube
Smoothly the wind blows me towards the eastern seas
With every millennium, the more I miss you

Shalalan rin rin proud in love

Dress yourself up, it's kawaii magic
until the lotus flowers fall
Love is surely trying, but this dream can't be broken

Kaminari, Kamaitachi, though my heart stumbles
that curse won't hurt, a faint love on Kamakiri-zaka

Shalalan rin rin proud in love

Kaminari, Kamaitachi, at the speed of an electric shock
You saw through my love, but these threads can't be broken
A whirlwind of change blows and though my heart stumbles
that curse won't hurt, a faint love on Kamakiri-zaka

* [1] - More about Mt. Penglai, known as Houraisan in Japan, can be found here.
* [2] - Kaminari means lightning/thunder, but also refers to the god of thunder/lightning. Due to the lyric's mystical references, I've opted to leave it as Kaminari.
* [3] - Kamaitachi are Japanese weasel-like youkai that ride on whirlwinds and cause painless wounds. More can be found out about them here.
* [4] - Kamakiri-zaka seems to be a reference to a place in Niigata, Japan. Click here to read more.

Henkyoku: Yasutaka Nakata

Saimin saimin soyosoyo to haru no urara no
Houraisan no mukougawa mirai e to kaze ga fuku
Shining Shining hi ga nobori kaoru sanpintii
Koi ni koi ni ochiru hodo yume ni todoku tte

Shararan rinrin renren rin

Kaminari Kamaitachi dengeki no sokudo de
Koigokoro mitooshita demo kono ito wa kirenai
Henka no tsumujikaze kokoro ga tsumazuitemo
Itakunai sono izuna awai koi Kamakiri-zaka

Saimin saimin nemutai nou shakishaki to shite
Shinkuukan no sore kurai kokoro ga nukete ita
Suisui fuufuu kaze ga fuku higashi no umi e
Ryoukai sennen tatsu hodo ni hito ga koishikute

Shararan rinrin renren rin

Omekashi Kawaii magic
Renge chitte shimau made
Koi mo kitto setsunakute demo kono yume wa kirenai

Kaminari Kamaitachi kokoro ga tsumazuitemo
Itakunai sono izuna awai koi Kamakiri-zaka

Shararan rinrin renren rin

Kaminari Kamaitachi dengeki no sokudo de
Koigokoro mitooshita demo kono ito wa kirenai
Henka no tsumujikaze kokoro ga tsumazuitemo
Itakunai sono izuna awai koi Kamakiri-zaka
