So, I'm back again with another translation help, from a line in the song
"Yoake to Hotaru"

夏が来ないままの街 **を今**

I've known, naturally as a basic, that を functions as an object marker for a
verb. However, it seems here that the thing that takes a direct object is 今.
Might there be some function of it I still do not know? Or perhaps, it
concerns syntax and grammar more, if anything.

question
translation particle-を
Strange sentence construction: を今
This is an example of the verb being omitted. 今 is modifying the time of the
sentence overall. Looking at the nearby lines, it's not entirely clear what
the verb is. Here are some things it could be:

  * 夏がこないままの街 **を** 行く
  * 夏がこないままの街 **を** 歩く
  * 夏がこないままの街 **を** 藍の色 **が** 染め上げる

Other things are naturally potentially possible as well.
