「諸行無常」 (Shogyō Mujō)
"The Impermanence of Worldly Things"
Like the shrike that impales its prey upon branches, I feel as if this adaptation has impaled my heart upon its sharp branches of modernity and loose interpretations.

"Dan-no-ura"
The sunset of the Taira.

「平家流るる」 (Heike Nagaruru)

「清盛、死す」 (Kiyomori, Shisu)
