手のひらのくぼみに 君がくれたものを まだぜんぶ乗せたままで 最後の駅をもう 過ぎた筈の 錆びたレールを辿って |
tenohira no kubomi ni kimi ga kureta mono o mada zenbu noseta mama de saigo no eki o mou sugita hazu no sabita reeru o tadotte |
still holding onto the things that you gave me in the hollows of my palms, i follow the rusted rail of the last station i have already passed through |
君と僕が出会うことが 夢見ていた 未来の全てと思っていた |
kimi to boku ga deau koto ga yumemite ita mirai no subete to omotte ita |
i was imagining a future where we met by chance that i had dreamt about |
重ねた指と指が 透き通るから 僕らはこころを 結んだ 君が泣いていたのは やわらかい過去 消えない繋がりの音楽 一人じゃない と初めて知った 瞳を開いた |
kasaneta yubi to yubi ga sukitooru kara bokura wa kokoro o musunda kimi ga naite ita no wa yawarakai kako kienai tsunagari no ongaku hitori ja nai to hajimete shitta hitomi o hiraita |
since our fingers that are on top of one another will become transparent, we bound our hearts together. you were crying due a tender past; hearing the music of our infinite connection, “i am not alone” we thought for the first time so we opened our eyes |
大事な音がある 胸の中の 細い糸に触らないように 選ばれた記憶の 色の無い絵の具で 君の絵を描いた あの夏の日 光の入り江で |
daiji na oto ga aru mune no naka no hosoi ito ni sawaranai you ni erabareta kioku no iro no nai enogu de kimi no e o egaita ano natsu no hi hikari no irie de |
in order not to touch the fine thread within our hearts that contain precious sounds, you painted a picture with colorless paints of memories you have chosen at a bay of light during that summer day |
二度と行けない場所で 待ち受けている 約束はまだ ずっと守られたまま もっと沢山の歌詞は 風に揺れる梢を ただやさしく 支えている [soonte lio adola] |
nidoto ikenai basho de machiukete iru yakusoku wa mada zutto mamorareta mama kaze ni yureru kozue o tada yasashiku sasaete iru [soonte lio adola] |
a promise that is awaiting in a place where we can never go again will always remain protected it so gently supports the treetops that shake in the wind [soonte lio adola] |
[teesta lio fia] 未来は続く 雨を待つ灰色の丘で [fia] 君は誰と出会い 僕は誰を想う 暖かい風を呼びながら |
[teesta lio fia] mirai wa tsudzuku ame o matsu haiiro no oka de [fia] kimi wa dare to deai boku wa dare o omou atatakai kaze o yobinagara |
[teesta lio fia] the future continues on; while the warm wind calls out to us [fia] at an ashen hill that awaits rain who will you meet? who will i think of? |
暗闇を待つ ツギハギの 壁を晒して 閉じ込められた 場所で初めて光る ぼくたちを動 かすダイナモ 息をひそめた 夢のかたまり むすんでひらくよ |
puranetariumu no sora kurayami o matsu tsugi hagi no kabe o sarashite tojikomerareta basho de hajimete hikaru bokutachi o ugokasu dainamo iki o hisometa yume no katamari musunde hiraku yo |
the planetarium’s sky awaits the darkness an assortment of walls will be exposed and the place where it’s imprisoned will shine for the first time. dynamos that move us and the clusters of dreams that hide our breath will bind and spread out |
みずうみの底には 夏の蒼い 雨の雫が 今も沈む つめたいものだけを 食べて育つ ぼくのやわらかいこころ また花咲く 時が来るよ |
mizuumi no soko ni wa natsu no aoi ame no shizuku ga ima mo shizumu tsumetai mono dake o tabete sodatsu boku no yawarakai kokoro mata hana saku toki ga kuru yo |
drops of the blue summer rain immediately sinks towards the bottom of lakes the time will surely come when our tender hearts that have been raised to take in only cold things will once again bloom |

Translator note:
There are some meanings behind the song’s title:
1) There is a children’s song called “musunde hiraite”
2) The meaning behind “tying a knot and opening” is this (wedding invitation). So its refering to the “red string of fate” (often seen in Japanese culture) that’s tied in this case.
Fave! 😀
best song ever!!!
