Canta-Per-Me .Net Photobook
Kajiura Yuki-san, Merry Christmas :D The book you are viewing now was supposed to be your birthday present, but we ran into some problems that didn't allow us to make in time, so we decided to give it to you as a Christmas present instead :). We, your fans at canta-per-me.net, this time thought of Kalafina who the recent years do concerts in various countries (China, USA, Germany), apart from Japan, and we thought that you might want to do so as well in the future, but in bigger scale. We then decided to create this: a pictures compilation of landscapes of each participant members' countries and countries they have visited! We hope these pictures make you want to visit the countries, and to help you we have made a map where's specified from which country each participant member is. Between the pictures there are also poems some of us created based on song titles of your songs and musics. There are also some drawings. As always we created this out of love and respect for you, the people you work with -musicians, singers- and the music you create together :) Please enjoy! Once again, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year, and Happy 20th anniversary of composing! Yours faithfully, george1234
Kajiura-san, Happy belated birthday, merry Christmas, and happy 20th anniversary of composing! We have all been so inspired by your many songs, and so we want to inspire you with sceneries of places we live in and have visited. There is also a world map to show you just how far your music has reached. We hope you enjoy this photobook, and continue to compose music for years to come. --aki

I race across the cynical world, Reaching for the Door to your Eden. I fly above the whispering hills Chasing your ARIA in the distance. If I cannot be that everlasting song you wove, Undulating in a sky of eternal blue, I’d rather shed these fake wings Fold myself where the snow is falling And cling to my silent pain, in memory of you.

To prove yourself, walk on your destiny.! the world is tumbling down, the battle is to the strong,! on the battlefield love is power. !army of the king, open your heart to the angel gate,! reveal the false king, a shadow of a fruitless love. !alone, he rules us with his darklore.!! I'm here inside your heart, awake!! ring your song for the seventh heaven, the place of eternity.! Your sweet song will restrain the requiem of the evil!! we have to defeat it.! Take the sword of promised victory, the luminus sword,! Take me to the beginning in the land of twilight, under the moon !the beginning of the end is here !signal the Gatherway where the lights are, the places of the holy! I swear this is the finale, the fatal fight! !lightseekers...MATERIALISE! --Seishin
This is the sunset and rise of the moon happening at the same time. At that place, one could turn around to see the sunset, and then turn 180 degrees to see the moon appear!
This was taken from a lookout above a hill that overlooks the sea. Mexico is well-known for it's amazing sunsets; this shot I took reminds me of the song "In the land of twilight, under the moon." --Seishin

LOVE IS POWER Our Hearts become Parallel as we reach for the sun. As the snow is falling inside your heart and in your eyes, Our destination is unknown. tears fall in my heart as voices silently sing to nowhere together, we search for a consolation in the forest of the night, voyagers of this world that is tumbling down, Wandering in Liminality until we find the light. --Pa’ahana

Si Taenia memoriae labatur, 'Surgam identidem,' inquiat? Cor destructum meum incertum est, sed timoris Conturbatio consumere non sinitur. Silens, Pergo pugnare illarum Lacrimosarum causa quarum 'salva nos,' conclamant, Puellaeque in somnio illo causa. Serena ira ardeo dum ensem Magiae amplector. Pugna infinita est, sed, puto Decretum esse Venari strigas insquequo Umbra nigra victrix fit et vero taenia cadet. --aki

The dreamcatcher stirs in the aura of a tiny light rising, and the dream fades before the dawn. While you slept at peace in your sand dream, I sang a lullaby to grandpa's violin under the silver moon, calling your ordinary dream of past sadness to its final destination on threads of sapphire. This is my blessing, a prophet's dream. maybe tomorrow, you will dance with me in the world once again. I have a dream that if you can fly until you find a light, you can go your own way to where every life is beautiful. fly, if you can. I swear I will be by your side while you walk on your destiny. I'm here, softly singing your Sweet Song of love. --aki

Dreamland Beach, Bali, is pretty vast with extremely blue sea and white sand. The sun shines pretty brightly there, and the sea is luminously beautifully. This is a good sunset beach.
here we stand in the morning dew In the garden, under the blue clouds Where the mist turns into dewdrops. “is this love? How, if you are my love?” You are my little one, so sweet. You are my dear feather. Softly gives peace in my mind. A little drop of peace falls from your cheek And with that tender feeling, you say, “I love you, sincerely.” Oh, what a tender moment I have With you, my love, so sweet. --littlefelicita

The safest mountain to be climbed in Java. The scenery of sunrise is great here. Also you have an extreme overlooking view, even higher than the clouds.
Despite my solitude by the window, I have a dream. An old dream. A dream about a fairytale. A beautiful fake garden on the valley of mist, That’s a new world of fairies. Me, with my fake wings, Fly higher and faster. Fly through the rain and storm, To where the lullaby echoes, To find someone who can comfort me. But it’s only a fairytale. Only a dream. And the dream fades before dawn. --littlefelicita

The Soka Indah Beach in Bali beach isn't very popular since it is a black sand beach, but the sunrise scenery is quite nice here and the waves are rather calming, creating mirror effect on the shore.
let the stars fall down in your eyes, in your mind, Dancing like a circus of fantasia In a song of storm and fire Let me open your heart That knows only a cynical world That knows only a requiem for the evil Hey, there's a bit of happiness there Let me sing a lullaby To make your silent pain be at peace Let me sing an ARIA Only for you, my little star. --littlefelicita

Kajiura Sensei! Let me introduce the city that I grown up with. Penang is a state in Malaysia and it bares a name of the constituent island. The city is actually covered up with trees, mountains and seas, if you’re in love with natural lifestyle this will be the most suitable place ever to stay and travel. This view is taken from the 21th floor of Gurney Paragon Mall.
= Tadaaaaaa, and this is the place that I’m been living in for the past 20 years. So did you see the flat is covered up by mountain huh? :D This place is actually a huge mountain and there’s around 20+ condominiums. I love the atmosphere here. Why? Because you can actually feel the fresh air every single day.
This place is known as Balik Pulau (澎!fu ruo), a place that full of natural resources. Mostly all the department store is taking those natural resources from here.
The Sunset view is marvellous right? This view is taken at the seaside of Gurney. --Wikki Pan

Wringing the handle of the window I look out upon the Endless Sky. Yearning for the warmth of light, I reach for the sun. maybe tomorrow, When the sun rises again, And the voices silently sing Their muted lullaby I will find my way To where the lights are. --casarina26

once upon a time there was you and me. And now, as I stand all alone, I quietly sing a farewell song. Thinking of our Beginning, The happy times we shared While knowing that there would Be no happy ending, As it’s only the fairytale that you and I dreamed up of. As the tears fall in my heart, I set a red rose Upon the remnants of our love A small consolation For my wounded heart. --casarina26

Alone... I'm all Alone.. Wrapped in darkness of Another dimension A Melody of forgotten Reminiscence Takes me to you, my Contractor Life Goes On your seal Revolves That Melody Turns into a Parting song Will we meet again? Without you, I'm Alone --Valerie Sanjaya
in the beginning there was you, crying alone Foretasting the bitter when two powers collide comes the catastrophe Into nowhere, the world is tumbling down Is this the beginning of the end? They say it's only a fairy tale voices silently sing a bitter Melody I talk to the rain, asking for a Miracle let the stars fall down, endlessly, to the place of eternity until you find a light --Valerie Sanjaya
The first town she reached in a beautiful morning of May was a fairyland filled with red roses There she met Maxwell's witch, went into the Fields of hope, entered an Emerald Green maze, and arrived at the swordland Now that the snow is falling And lilacs are withering she's gotta go... To a next destination --Valerie Sanjaya

I talk to the rain, hearing voices silently singing the song from the Endless Sky. ‘I’m here’ a raindrop said, ‘under the Manten, where the legend is still alive’. This fairyland brings out the nostalgia of the moving era as if it’s only the fairy tale from where the lights are. From Point Zero, to the forest, raindrops travel with a tiny stream Then they march down to the sea, the place of the sand dream. Like the ship of fools, even when the destination is unknown, they flow neverendingly, and have never been Alone. From Tasogare no Umi to nowhere, to the liminality, once upon a time there was you and me seeing them in jubilee. If you see our signal, if you hear our prayer, please tell me more about the land of water.

In the land of water and songs asleep, Days array themselves in all shades of sky, Letting birches sigh, letting willows weep In a rather-felt-than-heard lullaby. In a foreign town older than the books, People roam the street maze or hurry home. In this town's embrace, every daydream looks Like the legend's echo shaped on its own. Where at dawn the urban dance of the time Filled the hearts and veins of the city hive, All comes to a halt at dusk, tune and rhyme Sought anew for scoring the silent life. And the summer fades, enter autumn's brush, Maples caught up in its wild masquerade, Then the winter comes, rain and storm to hush, But etudes of snow mark the hopeful wait For the next rebirth, for the day, too far, When the road will lead somewhere I belong Not just as the audience but as a part Of this blue-eyed land's everlasting song... --Nick Hunter

The little sandpiper inside your heart, The Sweet song inside your heart, Carry me to the Fields of hope When the storm is coming. It will bring me the red rose of love, It will bring the Endless Sky to the forest of consolation. Your tears fall in my heart, You are my love In truth, oblivious, But Life Goes On. this day, and never again The fake wings of vanity Will walk on your destiny. --Yolexi8

Ma Chloé aux si doux parfums de lotus Je t'adore depuis ce beau jour de fête Moi peignant le portrait de Petit Cossette Toi au piano avec ce charmant rictus Notre distance m'attriste toujours plus Pourquoi restes-tu chez cette Margaret? J'ai besoin d'un signal, digne d'une esthète De ton aura, d'une évocation, ma puce Toute cette histoire n'est-elle qu'une fiction, Certes romanesque mais sans prétention ? J'attends le grand retour de ta mélodie Faire un sacrifice, tel tous les soldats, Comme tous ces saints, pour te dire aime-moi Dois-je ? Ne teins pas cet éden en noir, m'amie. --Daiima

Ohne Sturm und ohne Feuer Ein Himbeerstrauch erblüht in voller Pracht, Sonnenblumen erhellen die Nacht. Im Lande des Zwielichts, am Wald entlang zündet ein Mädchen unter dem Mond eine Kerze an. Die Regentropfen fallen auf die Zweige der Apfelbäume und das Mädchen macht sich auf dem Weg zum Hafen der Träume. Der ewig blaue Schatten der Nacht hat unsere Träume zum erwachen gebracht. Ich spreche zu dem Regen bis ich ein Licht finden werde. Mit der Erinnerung an euch bis ans Ende der Erde. Die Stimmen singen leise eine Symphonie an einem Ort wo die Lichter sind, wird uns ein kleiner Strandvogel den Weg zu den Mondblumen zeigen. --Nyannika
In a limestone cave, voices silently sing an everlasting song with no words like in a silent ceremony. In the places of the holy, a bamboo forest, the voice of the forest brings peace of mind to the lightseekers who march down on the battlefield holding luminous swords. inside your heart, in an odd witch world, a mother and daughter walk on their destiny when they encounter something unusual, a group of witches singing "wo ist die Kase?" But when they start threatening them, two powers collide in a short action. Her wings appear and she says, "I’ll be with you, there shall be no more fear." She truly has a heart! --george1234

I'm like the Spring, which is so beautiful so fresh, so colored. I feel like a magnolia. I am light as its flowers and let myself be lulled by the wind. So I let myself behind the winter of my concerns. The pure ARIA, the Magia of nature are a unique symphonia of which I feel a part. I look to the future with optimism towards the land of dreams. In this cynical world who will give me a consolation? I don't want to stray away to a destination unknown. But with my might I'll be able to open the Door of my Eden. And when this day comes? maybe tomorrow. However I'm ready, I'm not afraid. Because as those rose petals I'll fly in the Endless Sky. --HimeWakana
