オーロラの瞳
小比類巻かほる Lyrics

The song "Aurora no Hitomi" ("Eyes of Aurora") by Kahoru Kohiruimaki is about a childhood memory of the beauty and magic of the northern lights. The singer recalls a time when they would play alone in a vast grassy field, believing that time would stop when the aurora appeared. Even on sad nights when the singer couldn't stop crying, that field would remain a gentle and mysterious source of comfort. It was there that the singer found the certainty of their place in the world.

As the singer gets older and moves to the city, they feel lost and at risk of being swept away by the crowds. They hear a voice whispering that no one can live alone, and they long to return to that field of auroras. The passing of a sudden rainstorm drives home the pangs of nostalgia even more deeply. The singer dreams of returning to that time and place, even if it means facing unknown dangers or uncertainties. In their heart, they believe that everyone has their own aurora in their heart, and that gives them the strength to keep going.

The lyrics of "Aurora no Hitomi" are rich with vivid images and emotional depth. The nostalgia and longing for a simpler time and place is a universal sentiment, and the metaphor of the aurora as a source of hope and resilience is a beautiful one. The song encourages listeners to hold onto their own aurora, to find their own sense of belonging and purpose, and to know that they are not alone even in the midst of a crowded and confusing world.
