Текст и перевод песни Saori Yuki & Sachiko Yasuda - koujou no Tsuki

koujou no Tsuki

春 高楼の 花の宴
めぐる盃 かげさして
千代の松が枝 わけ出でし

むかしの光 いまいずこ

秋 陣営の 霜の色
鳴きゆく雁の 数見せて
植うる剣に 照りそいし
むかしの光 いまいずこ

今 荒城の 夜半の月
かわらぬ光 誰がためぞ
垣に残るは ただかつら
松にうたうは ただ嵐

天上 影は 変らねど
栄枯は移る 世のすがた
写さんとてか 今もなお
ああ荒城の 夜半の月

Moon Over the Ruined Castle

In the spring, a party of flowers
The goblets turn, casting shadows
From the thousand-year pine boughs

Where is the light of the past?

In the autumn, a camp of frost
The cries of migrating geese can be heard
Swords planted in the earth shine
Where is the light of the past?

Tonight, the moon shines over the ruined castle
An unchanging light, for whom does it shine?
Only ivy remains on the walls
And the wind sings in the pines

In heaven, shadows do not change
But prosperity and ruin pass away, such is the nature of the world
To reflect upon this, even now
Oh, the moon shines over the ruined castle
