Starlight
茶太 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
溜息の色溶けていく
じわりと滲んだ景色を
からっぽの手で遮った
白い道に続く足跡
とぎれとぎれ
灰色見上げる
重い雲のその向こうは
今もきっと
光であふれてる
目を閉じれば輝きだす
ただそこに在ると気づくだけで
それは勇気になる
歌う夜風が枯れ木を
切り裂くように撫でていく
冷えた指先の痛みが
浮かぶ迷いを振り払う
向かい風に目を細めても
願う明日を
見失わぬよう
重い脚で踏み出すたび
震えてても
気持ちは繋いでく
どんなときも諦めない
そう思うだけで強くなれる
明日へ向かいだす
何度立ち止まって
何度振り返って
足跡を数えたろう
その度 見上げた
重い雲のその向こうは
どんなときも
光であふれてる
目を閉じれば輝きだす
ただそこに在ると気づくだけで
もう一度歩き出せる
The lyrics of "Starlight" by 茶太, explore the feeling of being lost in the midst of a dreary night. The opening lines, "On a night where the stars cannot be seen, " describe the emptiness and desolation of the surroundings. The color of sighs melts into the air, and the singer covers the blurry scenery with empty hands. The footprints on the white road continue on brokenly, with a gray sky overhead. This creates a sense of hopelessness and loneliness that is further reinforced by the heavy clouds that obscure any light beyond.
However, the singer doesn't give up and still looks towards tomorrow. They close their eyes, and the shining light becomes apparent, and their courage increases. The singing night breeze brushes against the withered trees and clears away the doubts rising inside. Even if their legs tremble with every step, the singer persists, knowing that they can always look back and remember how far they have come. Every time they look up, they see that beyond the storm, there is still light, and this gives them hope, courage, and strength.
The theme of perseverance and hope in the face of darkness runs throughout the track. The lyrics of "Starlight" convey the message that even if everything seems to be crumbling apart, there is still hope as long as one keeps moving forward. It's an encouragement to everyone, reminding them that giving up should not be an option.

星の見えないこんな夜
On a night where the stars are out of sight
溜息の色溶けていく
The color of my sighs fades away
じわりと滲んだ景色を
I blocked out the landscape that was blurring
からっぽの手で遮った
With empty hands I obstructed it
白い道に続く足跡
Footprints lead down a white path
とぎれとぎれ
Interrupted and broken
灰色見上げる
I gaze at the gray skies above
重い雲のその向こうは
Beyond the heavy clouds
今もきっと
I'm sure that even now
光であふれてる
It's overflowing with light
目を閉じれば輝きだす
If I close my eyes, it starts to shine
ただそこに在ると気づくだけで
I just realize it's there
それは勇気になる
And that becomes my courage
歌う夜風が枯れ木を
The singing night wind gently strokes the withered tree
切り裂くように撫でていく
As if tearing through it
冷えた指先の痛みが
The pain in my cold fingertips
浮かぶ迷いを振り払う
Shakes off the doubts that surface
向かい風に目を細めても
Even when squinting into the headwind
願う明日を
I won't lose sight of the tomorrow I wish for
見失わぬよう
And won't lose it
重い脚で踏み出すたび
Every time I take a step with my heavy feet
震えてても
Even if I'm trembling
気持ちは繋いでく
My feelings are keeping me going
どんなときも諦めない
I won't give up, no matter what happens
そう思うだけで強くなれる
Just thinking that way makes me stronger
明日へ向かいだす
And I'll head towards tomorrow
何度立ち止まって
No matter how many times I stop
何度振り返って
No matter how many times I look back
足跡を数えたろう
I'll count my footprints
その度 見上げた
And every time I looked up
重い雲のその向こうは
Beyond the heavy clouds
どんなときも
No matter when
光であふれてる
It's overflowing with light
もう一度歩き出せる
I can start walking again
