Lyrics

I walk the glass where morning has not yet arrived
(朝がまだ来ていない硝子の街を歩く)
Pillars of pale fire stitch an arc across the vault
(淡い炎の柱が空の天蓋に弧を描く)
My palms keep patterns from the drift of scattered beams
(掌には散りゆく光線が描いた文様が残る)
Footsteps mark a cadence in the slow unfreezing dark
(足音がゆっくりと溶けていく暗闇に拍を刻む)

氷の光が胸を満たす
(The light of ice fills my chest)
静けさが道を照らす
(Stillness lights the way)

Northern Radiance raise the lanterns of our sleep
(北の輝きよ 我らの眠りの灯を掲げよ)
光の糸が夜を裂く
(Threads of light cleave the night)
Carry us along a shore that has no map
(地図のない岸へと私たちを運んで)
We climb upon the thin bright strand and do not fall
(私たちは細く輝く一筋に身を預け 決して落ちない)

Ships of glass call out with hollow bell like song
(硝子の船が空洞の鐘のような歌で呼びかける)
A brass needle tilts toward a horizon not yet named
(真鍮の針がまだ名のない地平へと傾く)
We trade our muttered doubts for a beam that steadies hands
(私たちは囁く疑念を 手を安定させる一筋の光と取り替える)
And draw a narrow road of day through lingering dusk
(残る黄昏を裂いて 細い昼の道を描く)

息を潜めて光を待つ
(We hold our breath and wait for the light)
ここに残した誓いだけが朝を導く
(Only the vows left here will guide the morning)

Northern Radiance hold every quiet promise close
(北の輝きよ すべての静かな約束を胸に抱け)
凍える時を切り裂いて
(Tear through the freezing hours)
Let the bright strand braid back the paths we lost
(その明るい一筋が失われた道を再び編み戻すように)
Together we will chart the edge where ocean meets the light
(ともに海と光が出会う縁を描き出そう)

The bell exhales and the sky tilts toward morning
(鐘が息を吐き 空は朝へと傾く)

Prompt

Set tempo to 220 BPM and craft a dark, galloping symphonic extreme speed metal track that moves like auroral light. Open with crystalline bell motifs and celesta arpeggios that suggest drifting curtains of color then cut into serrated tremolo guitars and tight double bass drums that drive forward without losing clarity. Keep verses intimate with whispered narration over sparse piano and ambient pads so lyrics remain clear. Build choruses around a radiant female tenor supported by layered choir and a grounding male low line. Use orchestral swells and restrained taiko to punctuate peaks. Insert a midsection with shifting polyrhythms and a neoclassical guitar run that resolves into palm muted groove. Allow subtle rubato in transitions and a short rall before the final chorus for catharsis. Repeat a three note motif across sections for recognition and end on fragile piano and distant choir.
