carnival

Karimero
Lyrics + music: Nao

Today is the day of the long-awaited festival that happens only once a year
The sun will be setting slowly soon

The street is bustling, flooded with the surging crowd
Just looking at the street stall sends my heart soaring

The sounds of shutters closing echoing
This important time will probably be shut away

So, although now is an instant, let's have a fun time.
And we'll dance dance like we've gone crazy
The town is illuminated like it's midday by the large-petaled flower that blooms in the night sky
We only want to look in fascination like we did when we were kids

Before long, the night also grows late, my heart is full, and I take the road home
I walk the street where no one else is

The pictures just made on the next day
I look them over; I want to meet this smiling face again.

I don't forget anything that remained after the festival
Today's things are engraved in my heart
Because I think that on next year's today, I will be at this same place,
This festival that everyone loves, I promise

Notes:
Aww... I can't resist songs about matsuri! No notes for this, it was pretty straightforward.
