Finally realized my dream of visiting Japan (^ o ^)... and I am indeed very lucky to be able to view the sakura during its peak... this year sakura opened a week earlier than last year... which had me worried while reading the various site where progress of the blossom was carefully blogged... then came the news that Japan is currently experiencing an unexpected cold drift which delayed the full blossoming of the sakura across the entire country... and when I touched down in Narita on 03 April 2010, the sakura in Ueno Park were at its peak... The scene was simply too breathtaking for any words... so many people gathered in Ueno Park to enjoy the lovely view of sakura... as I joined in the crowd to stroll around the park with my mom, my camera was busy taking in the views of the sakura in hope of capturing this wonderful moment... everything was so beautiful and calming... never had I experience such a feeling... this affirmed my decision to return to Japan again when I have the chance and money... not to say that I am still missing a lot of attractions around Japan... one week is simply not enough to enjoy the mystery and sights of Japan... this april would be the most memorable one in my entire 26 years of life so far... and I promised to continue making those memories (^_^)

月導 ~Tsukishirube~
南里侑香

wasurenaide kono omoi wa
bokura ga shinjita ai no uta
Please don't forget, this feeling
Is the resonance of love that we believed in

dakishimeta yoru ni wa kaketa tsuki ga naku
kurikaesu tsumi ni wa tomadoi no tsuki ga
michiru tokeru
On the night when I hug you, the waning moon cries
In my repeating sins, the moon of hesitation
Grows full and becomes obscured

ikutsumo no kokoro ga kimi o shibaru nara
ochite yuku ketsui ga yurusareru made
ai na no to shinjitai
If many hearts restrain you
Then until your determination to fall is allowed
I want to believe that it's 'love'

kasuka na koe aguriyosete
majiwaru yami no shirabe
tsunaide yuku kono omoi wa
bokura ga yumemita toki no uta
I pull in a faint voice
And it mingles with the tune of darkness
This connected feeling
Is the song from the moment when we dreamed

ubawareta yoru ni wa amai kaori tatsu
yorisoeta yoru ni wa akai namida ga
michiru yureru
On the night when it's stolen away, it gives off a sweet fragrance
On the night when I snuggle up to you, red tears
Overflow and flicker

oroka na ikizama tsuki wa warau deshou
fusagareta kotoba o kimi ni kasanete
ai da yo to sakebitai
The moonlight laughs at a foolish way of life, doesn't it?
I repeat the blocked word onto you
And I want to shout that it's 'love'

nemuranaide soba ni ite yo
michibiku hikari no naka
ikiru imi o umete yuku wa
bokura ga kogareta ai no uta
Please don't sleep, be by my side
Within the guiding light
Burying the meaning of living
Is the resonance of love that we longed for

kimi ga iru basho
kimi ga iru sora
kimi ga iru mirai o
boku ga furete mo kanashimi ni somenaide
arukitai
The place where you are
The sky where you are
The future where you are
Even if I touch them, I want to walk
Without getting dyed by sorrow

kimi no
Your...

kasuka na koe taguriyosete
majiwaru yami no shirabe
tsunaide yuku kono omoi wa
bokura ga yumemita
I pull in a faint voice
And it mingles with the tune of darkness
This connected feeling
Is when we dreamed...

wasurenaide kono omoi wa
bokura ga shinjita ai no uta
Please don't forget, this feeling
Is the resonance of love that we believed in
