<small>69, ナイス</small>\
**Note:** In these lyrics, 「くすんだ」is written with the kanji 燻. This is a rare and non-standard spelling; 「くすむ」is usually with kana alone. In addition, 「[丁]{てい}[寧]{ねい}」is sung as 「[丁]{てい}に、[寧]{ねい}に」for more emphasis, which I’ve done my best representing as two layers of furigana. This is to add more nuance to the lyrics and is called [[義]{ぎ}[訓]{くん}](https://morg.systems/Gikun).

This week's challenge is from *flos*'s lyrics ([YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUbOc97FpUA)):
