[Intro] The wind is calling through the shrine Another strange night crosses the line Under a moon that knows my name I hear the distant bells again [Verse 1] Red and white beneath the sky A little trouble drifting by Youkai whisper, spirits roam As if they never learned this is my home I tie the ribbon in my hair Take my gohei and leave without a care Another incident, another day Guess I’ll have to clear the mess away [Pre-Chorus] Between the worlds, where shadows meet I walk alone on sacred streets No matter what may cross the line This boundary still belongs to mine [Chorus] I am the Hakurei Shrine Maiden Standing where the worlds collide Human, youkai, ghost and phantom All are dancing side by side I don’t need a grand tomorrow I don’t need a hero’s name When the balance starts to tremble I’ll be there to end the game [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] Danmaku paints the evening red Strange little stars above my head A magician laughs somewhere nearby A scarlet moon is rising high Maybe the world is upside down Maybe another god came to town But if an incident begins I’ll find the culprit in the end [Pre-Chorus 2] Through endless skies and distant dreams Nothing is quite the way it seems The boundary bends, the seasons turn Yet there are things I’ll always guard [Chorus] I am the Hakurei Shrine Maiden Keeper of the fragile line Neither saint nor chosen savior I just happen to be the one this time If the darkness fills the heavens If the night refuses to fade I’ll raise my gohei to the moonlight And send the chaos on its way [Bridge] I’ve seen the flowers bloom for ghosts I’ve watched the moon become a road I’ve heard the names of gods forgotten Whispered softly by the snow This world is strange This world is free And somehow that’s enough for me [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] I am the Hakurei Shrine Maiden Standing where the worlds collide As long as this shrine remains The boundary will survive So bring your spells and bring your trouble Bring the night across the sky I’ll be waiting at the shrine With a sigh and a tired smile No matter how the seasons change No matter how the worlds divide I’ll remain beneath the scarlet ribbon Watching over this side [Outro] The wind grows quiet through the trees Another night returns to peace I place my gohei by the door Until the next incident calls once more
