さようなら さようなら 美しい空に呼びかけた 二人で 短い旅をして来たね 煌めく若葉の香る季節は 終わらないように見えたね 涙も痛みも あるがままで 未来の夢を見た |
sayonara sayonara utsukushii sora ni yobikaketa futari de mijikai tabi o shite kita ne kirameku wakaba no kaoru kisetsu wa owaranai you ni mieta ne namida mo itami mo aru ga mama de mirai no yume o mita |
Farewell Farewell Calling out to the beautiful sky The two of us Went on a short trip It didn’t appear like the season Of sparkling young leaves would ever end Even with Tears and pain We dreamed of the future |
|
この世界をあと一度だけ ただ信じてみようかな 風の中を歩いて行ける 太陽が道を照らす 手を伸ばす 望むものがある 私はここにいるよ 貴方と共に行くよ 彼方へ |
kono sekai o ato ichido dake tada shinjite miyou kana kaze no naka o aruite yukeru taiyou ga michi o terasu te o nobasu nozomu mono ga aru watashi wa koko ni iru yo anata to tomo ni yuku yo kanata e |
I should just believe in this world One last time I can walk through the wind And as the sun illuminates my path I reach out my arms For there is something I desire I’m right here I will go with you To the beyond |
|
希望や祈りに 縋り付くことに疲れて 貴方は笑ってた 大人びた頬に影ばかり落として |
kibou ya inori ni sugaritsuku koto ni tsukarete anata wa waratteta otonabita hoho ni kage bakari otoshite |
Weary of clinging To hope and prayer But you were smiling Casting nothing but shadows on your mature cheeks |
|
この世界をあと何度でも ただ愛してみようかな 傷ついても 許されなくても 太陽は道を照らす 壊れ行くいのちを抱えて 私はここにいるよ 貴方を呼んでいるよ |
kono sekai o ato nando demo tada aishite miyou kana kizutsuite mo yurusarenakute mo taiyou wa michi o terasu kowareyuku inochi o kakaete watashi wa koko ni iru yo anata o yonde iru yo |
I think I’ll try to love this world Time and time again Even if I’m hurt Even if I’m not forgiven The sun illuminates my path Cradling a life that is breaking apart I’m right here I’m calling out to you |
|
(asortio firito itaria diosa arimia isoria dirita imaria) 大事なものばかり増えた |
(asortio firito itaria diosa arimia isoria dirita imaria) daiji na mono bakari fueta |
(asortio firito itaria diosa arimia isoria dirita imaria) Only the number of important things has grown |
|
天高く響け歌声 誰かの胸を貫け 虚空へと消え行く前に いちばん遠い渚へ 手を伸ばす 静かな心で 私はここにいるよ 未来を呼んでいるよ 物語の終わりは 始まりの朝焼けに 続いて行く |
ten takaku hibike utagoe dareka no mune o tsuranuke kokuu e to kieyuku mae ni ichiban tooi nagisa e te o nobasu shizuka na kokoro de watashi wa koko ni iru yo mirai o yonde iru yo monogatari no owari wa hajimari no asayake ni tsuzuite yuku |
Let the voices ring out to the high heavens Pierce someone’s heart Before the song vanishes into the void To the farthest shore I reach out my hands With a quiet heart I’m right here Calling out to the future The end of the story Continues To the dawn of a new beginning |
