I can hear a whistling farther than yesterday I collect the scattered pieces I hold them tightly in my right hand, and softly close my eyes Knife-like moonlight rains down On a night that freezes even the horizon Alone in that wilderness, hugging my knee I strain to hear the song of the wind Those who do not know a sleepless night Cannot become strong; that is the rule I can hear whistling farther than the stars and the skies It's the words of someone's prayer I hold them tightly in my right hand, and softly close my eyes A thing that's even sadder than loneliness Is not realizing that loneliness No matter how freezing the night, under the earth Warmth is hidden Rather than being a bird that is trapped in a cage I would become a nameless stone I can hear a whistling farther than yesterday I collect the scattered pieces And holding them tight in my right hand, I softly close my eyes I can hear whistling from a distant yesterday It's the words of someone's prayer And holding them tight in my right hand, I softly close my eyes Holding them tight in my right hand, I softly close my eyes.
