tengoku no otoko
words by Kyoko Fukuyama
music by Yoshiki Fukuyama
sung by Yoshiki Fukuyama
from the Humming Bird album, “123 (one two three)”

shitterukai tengoku no otoko wo  
kurofuku no sagatanaki otoko wo
sono koe wa kaze ni nai   sono uta ha subete wo sukutta

yarikirenai yoru ni   arawareta otoko wa
mienai me de warai   mienai mono wo miru

mukou kara tengoku no otoko ga  
yatte kuru kuraku semai michi
sore chigau shunkan ni   suri nukete tamashii no naka

yarikirenai yoru ni   arawareta otoko wa
dokokade kiita koe   dokokade mita kao datta

shitterukai tengoku no otoko wo  
kurofuku no sagatanaki otoko wo
sono koe wa kaze ni nai   sono uta ha subete wo sukutta

yarikirenai yoru ni   arawareta otoko wa
dokokade kiita koe   dokokade mita kao datta

Heaven’s Man
Translation by Alinda Sue

A heaven’s man I know, a dark clothing shape of a man
That voice becomes the wind, that song saved all

The man who appeared in the night that could not be carried through
He laughs by the eye that cannot be seen,
He sees the thing that cannot be seen

The heaven’s man from over there, he comes by the dark narrow road
In the passing moment, passes through within the soul

The man who appeared in the night that could not be carried through
Somewhere heard a voice; also somewhere the face was seen

A heaven’s man I know, a dark clothing shape of a man
That voice becomes the wind, that song saved all

The man who appeared in the night that could not be carried through
Somewhere heard a voice; also somewhere the face was seen
