Cosmic Mauve | Qnel • From “SPACE CANDY”
Space Cruising Lyrics Translation (from “SPACE CANDY”)
Kensuke Takahashi notes a comet’s glow guiding lovers across the void. The poet adds a line, ‘I’ll let the wind carry your name’, to bind distance with hope. He weaves stardust sand slipping through fingers into a promise of reunion.
Fuantei de togirete shimaisouna yoru no nakaThrough this shaky night that feels like it’s about to break apart
