Itsuka kagayaku shinjiru koto ga sou

Someday shining – believing is just that

Ima watashi ni ikiteru yuuki wo kureru kara

It currently gives me the courage to live on

Jidai to iu kaze ni fukare

Blown by the winds of the ages

Asu wo tesaguri shite iru

Groping around for tomorrow

Hirogaru yami mayou dake ga

Darkness spreads, and only worries

Mata komiagete kuru kedo

Keep welling up

Donna toki mo wasurenai

I’ll never forget

Shiawase wo tsukamu niwa

To grasp happiness

Akiramenai koto ga ichiban taisetsu dane

It is most important to not give up

Kitto mitsukeru mabushii kimochi

I will definitely find bright feelings

Namida mno umi wo koeta toki

When I get over the sea of tears

Itsuka mitsukaru yuruginai mirai ga

Someday I will find, and the unyielding future

Hikari michita sekai e to yume ga tadoritsuku

Will lead dreams to a world full of light

Haruka michi wo saegiru youni

As if blocking a road in the distance

Kumo ga hoshi tachi kakushite

The clouds hide the stars

Ima watashi no ikiru tsuyosa

My strength in living

Tameshite iruyo hisoka ni

Is secretly being tested now

Afuredasu kanashimi sae

Even the overflowing sadness

Sora kara no okurimono

is a gift from the sky

Machitsuzukeru dake ja negai wa kanawanai yo

Wishes won’t be granted by just waiting

Kitto mitsukeru mabushii kimochi

I will definitely find bright feelings

Namida mno umi wo koeta toki

When I get over the sea of tears

Itsuka mitsukaru yuruginai mirai ga

Someday I will find, and the unyielding future

Hikari michita sekai e to yume ga tadoritsuku

Will lead dreams to a world full of light

Yorokobi wo wakeau tame

To share joy

Meguri aeta dareka to

With someone I was able to meet

Yoake wo mejirushi ni massugu aruite yuku

I walk straight ahead, using daybreak as my guide
