ずっと 昔の物語を聞かせて 貴方が 今日だけのコーラスを重ねて Symphonia of time |
Zutto mukashi no monogatari wo kikasete Anata ga kyou dake no ko-rasu wo kasanete Symphonia of time |
Let me hear a tale from long time ago After you repeat the chorus of only today Symphonia of time |
|
|
胸に 眩しい花火のような憧れ 迷いと 躊躇いの誘いを進むよ |
Mune ni mabushii hanabi no you na akogare Mayoi to tamerai no izanai wo susumu yo |
In my heart there’s a yearning like a radiant firework I’m advancing on the invitation of doubt and hesitation |
|
|
東の風に 昨日の景色を 見届けたら 時の手を取って まだ見ない明日へと |
Higashi no kaze ni Kinou no keshiki wo mitodoketara Toki no te wo totte Mada minai ashita he to |
In the eastern wind If I could see yesterday’s scenery with my own eyes I’d take the hand of time Towards the still unseen tomorrow |
|
|
今、明るい音楽 世界の彼方へ 貴方のいのちが 愛を奏でている |
Ima, akarui ongaku sekai no kanata he Anata no inochi ga ai wo kanadete iru |
Now, like a bright music reaching beyond the world Your life is playing the music of love |
|
|
** いつか 全ての大地に降る夜明けへ 小さな 灯火一つだけで進むよ |
** Itsuka Subete no daichi ni furu yoake he Chiisa na Tomoshibi hitotsu dake de susumu yo |
** I’m advancing with just a single lamp Towards the dawn that will someday fall on all Earth |
|
|
夢の行方を きっと静かな 鐘の音が 見送ってくれる 果てしない地平へと |
Yume no yukue wo Kitto shizuka na Kane no oto ga Miokuttekureru Hateshinai chihei he to |
The course of the dream Surely sends us off With the quiet toll of bells Towards the the endless horizon |
|
|
今、明るい音楽 空に届くまで 僕らの信じた 愛を奏でている ** |
Ima, akarui ongaku sora ni todoku made Bokura no shinjita ai wo kanadete iru ** |
Now, a bright music, until it reaches the sky Plays the music of the love we believed in ** |
|
|
人の想いが 花咲き降り積もり 僕らの世界を 愛で満たしてゆく |
Hito no omoi ga hanasaki furitsumori Bokura no sekai wo ai de mitashite yuku |
The thoughts of people, falling and piling up like flower blossoms Fill our world with love as they go |
|
|
聞かせて 貴方の調べ |
Kikasete Anata no shirabe |
Let me hear Your melody |
