Touhou 10 (Because Princess Inada is Scolding Me)

—English fanlyrics—





The prayer often prays with a mistaken thought:

To think a thing can manifest for free.

The voice that rings again reminds a stubborn god:

“There is a force above even me.”

What would a god without a true believer be?

What a believer, left without a god?

Nostalgic seasons brimming with fertility

Shall pass as soon as they are forgot.





The generation seeded wants to grow awhile;

Among the myriad, a place is earned.

The voice that rings again berates a stubborn child:

“There is a lesson passing unlearned.”

The seedling drinks the food for which its roots have yearned

As words of praise are drunk up by a child.

The sweetest scent that drifts from every seedling turned

Shall last as long as it is in style.
