...Dress Black is a formal wear store in Japan, and really has nothing to do w/ the writing, a Buddhist poem that contains each of the Japanese syllables exactly once... refered to as the iroha ordering... the quoted text is a rewriting of the original to fit the following meaning:
Colours are fragrant
But they fade away.
In this world of ours none lasts forever.
Today cross the high mountain of life's illusions,
And there will be no more shallow dreaming,
no more drunkenness.
