Matsuri uta (translation)

The wind runs away to the water surface, being guided through the way it drifts out.
As the melody floats around,
Its echo extends for ever.
It sways and sways, trembling,
Into the unending sky above
It crosses time, it comes and goes
Into this faint world
Now, my friends, get together to earth.
Let us sing songs which we have forgotten
Let us have feelings which we have lost
Until the moment in which we will meet again
Sleeping deeply, very deeply
Time is flowing away.
