Egoist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ご覧 あれが生命(いのち)なる灯
時を紡ぐパウロの音よ
永久に伝う物語よ
闇を照らす小さき者
倣え彼に 私もまた
祈り称え 生命(いのち)の灯を
共にあらん
The lyrics to Egoist's song "Genzai no Tomoshibi" can be interpreted as a reflection on the significance of one's existence and the desire to leave a lasting impact. The opening lines, "Here, I will prove your name," suggest a desire to make one's mark or prove one's worth in the world. The following line, "Behold, that is the light that becomes life," implies that this light represents the essence of life itself, illuminating the darkness and providing meaning to our existence.
The song then introduces the character of Paulo, who weaves time with his music and his eternal story. This may symbolize the power of art and storytelling to transcend time and connect people across generations. The lyrics further describe a small being who illuminates the darkness, implying that even a seemingly insignificant individual can have a profound impact on the world.
The chorus encourages the listener to emulate Paulo, to pray and praise for the light of life. This can be interpreted as a call to embrace one's own purpose, to find meaning in life, and to strive to illuminate the darkness in the world. The closing lines express a desire to be together until the day when the light of life arrives, suggesting a longing for unity and a shared journey towards a greater purpose.
Overall, "Genzai no Tomoshibi" is a introspective song that explores the themes of existence, significance, and the power of light and storytelling to bring meaning to our lives.
