Nagareboshi - Shooting Star

blackest night aglow icy harbinger of doom near now, make seas rise send shivers through ancient tombs blue earth beware night sky temple bells ring out monks in orange robes chant ohm flocks of sparrows flee lava hisses through fissures blue earth beware the night sky blackest night aglow bodies meet in heavens flight deep within plates move crusts crush mountain tops high blue earth beware the night sky yurei* call rise, hide the sacred toreii** gate falls guard dogs howl the moon harbinger of endings drone blue earth, beware the night sky *yurei, angry ghost **toreii gate, arch before a Shinto Shrine
