雷克雅未克 [leoi4 hak1 ngaa5 mei6 hak1] [English translation]

Please keep your promise, to fly here and break the ice for me

Being amidst Iceland's scenic beauty does not kill my dependence

The dust of time has buried that love

But the remnants of the vow were never cleared

While you have talked about

Resuming the old scene the next year

(I) walk through the familiar city under snow

The nordic soundtrack is clever and calm

Submerged into my music player

Among the melodies the blue whale hums the laments of an orphan

Like this city, unhurried and unblemished

A troubled pedestrian like me carries unneeded sentimentality

There is a light in the arctic

You said you would keep it and we would then see it together

If I ever despaired

Thinking of it would release everything

This light, violet in translucent green

Never blossomed in the heavens

Just like the distant lands we could have reached together but never did

Glaciers unvisited; volcanoes unventured

Or am I trapped inside my fantasy

Unquenched passion delivered across ten years

Like a hot spring flowing into a frozen vault

The war between fire and ice is won by the one with patience; the frosted, former romance shall unfreeze

Perhaps missing the date was your plan all along

Keeping the Iceland date was just due to my inability to see through

Simply not all lovers long to reunite and revisit their dreams

(Not) all lovers long to reunite to repair the faults

If lovers could all reunite

Love songs would have much less excellent material

Come, take a step; the sooner one gives up, the sooner one prospers

After the date is missed, I will, I will take it easy

And let the longing lay itself to rest under the deepest snow

There is a light in the arctic

You said you would keep it and we would then see it together

If I ever despaired

Thinking of it would release everything

This light, violet in translucent green

Never blossomed in the heavens

Just like the distant lands we could have reached together but never did

Glaciers unvisited; volcanoes unventured

Maybe I was too arrogant and vain

The rendezvous in Iceland was merely a misunderstanding

Never cared to pay attention when listening

The city the lover said we will return to suddenly changed its name

It is no use to blame fate for the failed encounter

(I) never had the talent to read the depth of others' hearts

Please keep your promise, to fly here and look at the stars with me

The ancient scenery of Fukushima emanates purity within the destruction

Who can, for yesterday's affection,

Journey again after ten years?

In the ruins of time

one searches for the untarnished evidence of love
