冬の星座
上條恒彦 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

木枯とだえて
さゆる空より
地上に降りしく
奇しき光よ
ものみないこえる
しじまの中に
きらめき揺れつつ
星座はめぐる

ほのぼの明りて
流るる銀河
オリオン舞いたち
スバルはさざめく
無窮をゆびさす
北斗の針と




きらめき揺れつつ
星座はめぐる

Overall Meaning

The above lyrics are from the Japanese song 冬の星座 (Fuyu no Seiza) by 上條恒彦 (Koji Kamada). The song portrays the winter constellations that sparkle and move through the quiet and stillness of the winter sky. The first verse talks about the cold and bleak winter landscape and how the constellations shine through the darkness, illuminating the world with their beauty. The second verse describes the flowing Milky Way, and the constellations Orion and Subaru creating sounds as they dance through their eternal journey in the sky. The north star and the shining constellations move and circle around, creating a mesmerizing and awe-inspiring sight that fills the observer with wonder.


The lyrics of the song are a beautiful representation of the winter sky and its constellations. The song is a reminder of how the natural world around us is an endless source of inspiration and captivation. The lyrics could also be interpreted on a deeper level, where the winter landscape and the constellations in the sky represent the stillness and motion of life, its beauty and struggles, and the eternal cycle of birth and death.
