LYRICS:
In the heavens high, where the starlight gleams
A weaver’s hands dance through celestial dreams
Orihime shines, so beautiful and true
A thread of fate in the cosmic blue
Hikoboshi rides, with a herdsman’s call
Across the plains where the night winds fall
Their eyes collide, a spark ignites,
Two souls entwined
The Sky King’s wrath tears the skies apart,
Dividing river of stars
Across the Milky Way, they cry all in vain
A love eternal drowned in this cosmic pain
”All year, I’m gonna miss you
From dawn to dawn, I’m gonna kiss you
The fleeting moment is almost gone
You are my light, my love!”
The loom lies still, the cattle stray
Love’s sweet rebellion stole their days
Tentei’s fury, a thunderous roar
Banished them both to the distant shores
The Amanogawa flows, a silver scar
A bridge of magpies beneath the stars
One fleeting chance, one fragile flight
To hold each other in the fading light
