Tobikkiri no egao de
Pedal tsuyoku kogidasou

With the best smile you’ve got, let’s start pedalling really hard

Mukaikaze ni fukaretatte
Kujikecha dame dayo

Even if the wind wants to push you back, don’t be discouraged

Kanashimi ni makenai tsuyosa
Sotto oshiete kureru
Hiroi umi wo mezashite

Aiming for the vast ocean that will tell you softly… a strength
that wins over sorrow

Ganbare! Kimi no hitomi wa itsuka
Hikari abite kagayakidasu

Go for it! Your eyes will someday bask in the light and start to shine

Akiramenaide shinshiru koto wo
Ashita no yuuki ni kaete

Turn your belief to go on and not give up into the courage that leads to tomorrow

Sesuji pin-to nobashite
Ookiku shinkokyuu shiyou

Stand with your back straight, and take a deep breath

Itsumo utsumite bakarija
Nanimo kawaranai

Nothing changes if you always look down

Massuguna heart no rail
Furimukazu ni arukeba

If you walk along the rail of your heart without looking back

Yume wa kitto kanauyo

Your dream will always come true

Ganbare! Kimi no namida wa itsuka
Hoosekiyori kiramekidasu

Go for it! Your tears will someday shine brighter than jewels

Akiramenaide yumemiru koto wo
Ashita no chikara ni kaete

Turn your pursuit for dreams without giving up into the strength that leads to tomorrow

Kanashimi ni makenai tsuyosa
Sotto oshiete kureru
Hiroi umi wo mezashite

Aiming for the vast ocean that will tell you softly… a strength
that wins over sorrow

Ganbare! Kimi no hitomi wa itsuka
Hikari abite kagayakidasu

Go for it! Your eyes will someday bask in the light and start to shine

Akiramenaide shinshiru koto wo
Ashita no yuuki ni kaete

Turn your belief to go on and not give up into the courage that leads to tomorrow
