“The fleeting words
"I will come back for you, wait for me"
Although the season has elapsed and cycled, we have become adults,
I am still believing, and waiting―”
—Author's comments
A song about two courtesans, a girl that lived as an orphan, Rin, and the daughter of a former samurai, Miku, in pre-modern Japan. As children, they promised to be together forever, however they are now working in brothels and eventually become rivals. A wealthy man named Len comes to the brothels and enters relationships with various courtesans. Rin notices the man visiting the brothels frequently and falls in love with him but is heartbroken when she discovers her friend, Miku, in his arms one day.
In her heartbreak, Rin realizes that she and Miku have truly become rivals in love and that their dream to walk on together someday may just be a fantasy. Len leaves for another country and promises to Miku as well as others, that he will return. However, Miku dies from an illness that has frequently plagued her. As Miku dies, she asks for Rin to convey her feelings to Len as she believed his promise to return. Rin waits for the man to return but understands that she is ultimately waiting for no one and wishes everything had been a dream.
While some parts of the song lyrics alone can be vague, the official book by Team OS, Music Reference Volume 1(ひとしずく×やま△楽曲設定資料集vol.1), goes into further details about the relationships between Rin, Miku, and Len. It also further explains details such that Miku had been ill for the majority of her time in the brothel, the reason why Len ultimately leaves is for work in another country for his family's business, and that Len had made this promise to various other courtesans.
It has a sequel song telling the events from the Len's point of view called Koi Yami Rou.
"Ama Yume Rou" is featured in the albums STORIA, Karakuri Man'yoshu, EndlessroLL, Tenkyou no Wagaku and Shuffle!!2.

| 儚い言葉ね | hakanai kotoba ne |
| 「迎えに行くよ･･･待っていて」 | "mukae ni iku yo... matte ite" |
| 時を重ね 季節が巡っても、まだ | toki wo kasane kisetsu ga megutte mo, mada |
| 信じて 待ってる | shinjite matteru... |
| はらり 雪が舞う夜空 綻びた着物を着て | harari yuki ga mau yozora hokorobita kimono o kite |
| 震える肩を寄せ合う 貧しい孤独な幼子 | furueru kata o yoseau mazushii kodokuna osanago |
| 明るく笑う瞳は 俯き憂う瞳は | akaruku warau hitomi wa utsumuki ureu hitomi wa |
| 互いの傷を映して 生きることを誓った | tagai no kizu o utsushite ikiru koto o chikatta |
| 宵闇に誘うは 花魁草(おいらんぞう) | yoiyami ni sasou wa oiranzou |
| 甘い蜜に舞う 夜の蝶 | amai mitsu ni mau yoru no chou |
| 綺麗な着物 なびかせて | kirei na kimono nabikasete |

| 誰より輝く華になって 魅せる | dare yori kagayaku hana ni natte miseru |
| ねえ、儚い言葉ね | nee, hakanai kotoba ne |

| 寂しい心、気付かれぬように | sabishii kokoro, kizukarenu you ni |
| 醒めない夢に 溺れてる | samenai yume ni oboreteru |
| 黄昏に染まる街で 人知れずに恋をした | tasogare ni somaru machi de hitoshirezu ni koi wo shita |
| 想いを告げることさえ 叶わずに ただ見つめる | omoi wo tsugeru koto sae kanawazu ni tada mitsumeru |
| 優しく笑う瞳の先に 微笑むその華 | yasashiku warau hitomi no saki ni hohoemu sono hana |
