Recording date
8 October 1982

Overview

By moonlight I stand
The life of the seed, the seed of life / Will surely be sealed
At night, butterflies / cross the channel
It is not that I dance, but that / my body is invited to dance
As though there is an endless exchange between the countless full moons and blood
This is how the butoh should be danced.
(Bishop Yamada, The Butoh Chronicles III)
