THE DIVINE WIND
(Kamikaze)
Lovely daughter of the rising sun
do you find yourself alone?
Lovely daughter of the rising sun,
so your paper cities will not burn
a thousand sailors will share his grave
and you will cry alone.
With your silk scarf around his neck,
the taste of saki in his mouth,
a thousand sailors will share his grave
and you will sleep alone.
Your koto player would know beauty's worth
he was blinded at birth.
But that samurai who goes to die
what does he know of Music?
Lovely daughter of the rising sun
as he heads out to sea
tear your eyes from the skies
set your koto player free.
