Mt. Iwate
Clear and pure air,
Light reflected on the surface of a river,
Made my heart clearer and clearer,
Allowing me to encounter the purity of heart.
As I looked up the sky, Mt. Iwate was covered with snow on its top,
And its magnificent and variant shape moved my heart.
This was the moment of encounter with God.
In our era everything became clear and visible.
Divine ages.
Beautiful nature.
Beautiful
Human heart.
Great encounter.
We would create a new world.
The truth should prevail all over.
A brilliantly shining mountain manifested
The provision of a glorious future.
The time to bear great hope.
On a clear winter day
I envisioned a light-scape of an ancient time.
My heart was attracted by something beyond that mountain,
Yearning for my homeland year after year.
Before a life and heart that simply followed a stream of a river,
People started to wonder about the meaning of their life.
The beautiful surface of water
Made us acknowledge a life true to our beautiful heart.
This chilly wind was the same one in our homeland
That delivered us a message.
As we tried to listen to it
The vision of our home in ancient times was revived in our heart.
Though a long period of time that we spent here had erased our memory
And concealed the truth,
A once forgotten light-vision was reviving as a special wind has brought it to me.
Souls of people were reviving.
The moment of a great encounter.
