[Instrumental intro]

[shakuhachi solo]

[Verse 1]

Bearing the burden of a lonesome fall's sigh,

Speaking of yearning like an ocean deep and wide;

Should someone inquire of my troubled mind's plea,

I dare not speak your name that haunts me in my sleep.

[build-up]

[shakuhachi solo]

[Chorus]

Your name—(oh)

how it echoes—(a silent chime)

Should someone inquire of my weary heart's decline,

Speaking of yearning like an ocean deep and wide,

Bearing the burden of a lonesome fall's sigh.

[shakuhachi solo]

[drop]

[Verse 2]

I dare not utter your name, withheld in vain,

If pressed to voice the sorrow that my soul weaves,

Speaks of a solitude that comes with falling leaves,

A whispering chill, the autumn's tranquil bane.

[build-up]

[shakuhachi solo]

[Chorus]

Your name—(oh)

how it echoes—(a silent chime)

Should someone inquire of my weary heart's decline,

Speaking of yearning like an ocean deep and wide,

Bearing the burden of a lonesome fall's sigh.

[Outro]

Speaking of distant seas and autumn's somber hue.

If pressed to voice the shadow on my spirit’s pane,

For fear of breaking silence,

your name...(your name)

[sad shakuhachi solo]

[end]

your name...(your name)

[sad shakuhachi solo]
