Dandelion from ITAKIRY by ITAKIRY
The inspiration for Dandelion came from the TV series Outlander and its theme song "The Skye Boat Song". The aim was to write a song with a mystical Celtic character and combine it with modern jazz. During the process, the lyrics were changed thrice until they finally settled onto the subject of the journey of a dandelion seed, which itself reflects the never-ending circle of life and its changing nature.

Lyrics
Everlasting soul
Never resting spirit
Floating through the world
Barely touching ground
Reaching for the sun
While the seasons fade away
And soon a breeze will take you on it’s wings
To discover the beauty beyond
A whisper from afar
Tells me where you are
And from the soil
Where you’ll come to lay
Yellow flowers will bloom amidst the grey
One day
Till they’re blown away
Will you let them stay?
