Stay where you are then
Shelter from the summer's light high
We are safe now
Sitting in the dark house
At that time
Living in the back yard
And the children
Singing at the sky
Silences sangokaku trees
Waiting for the dawn
She is standing
Pictures we're all around the fire
Books and treasures
All coming from the past
Stay where you are then
Soldier back into your home now
You won't talk much
Sitting in the dark house
Silences sangokaku trees
Waiting for the dawn
She is standing
Shelter from the winter's light damp
We are safe now
Sitting in the bright house
Silences sangokaku trees
Waiting for the dawn
She is standing
