Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

「はじめまして」した日から

Nice to meet you from the day we first said hello

ずっと待っていた Ah

I've been waiting all along, ah

この日を想っていた

Been thinking about this day

キラキラその目に宿った

That sparkling in your eyes

光を見たんだ

I saw the light shining through

広がるこの大地を歩いて

Walking across this vast land

新たな出会いに触れてきっと

Touching new encounters, I believe

見つけ出せる

I can find it

きみだけのジュエル

Your very own jewel

その軌跡をセーブ

Save your trail

全部全部

Everything, everything

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

赤青緑色とりどり

Red, blue, green, in every color

宝探し たまに寄り道

Treasure hunt, sometimes take a detour

手合わせ願う それじゃ一緒に

Join your hands, I ask, then together now

Three, two, one!

Three, two, one!

「キミにきめた！」

Decided on you!

今日も幕が開けた

Today, the curtain rises once again

Let me そう let me feel

Let me, yeah, let me feel

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

ドキドキがもう

My heartbeat's racing now

止まらない止められない

Can't stop, no way to stop

磨き続けた

Kept polishing it

一撃をビリビリと今

A strike that tingles all around

狙い定めて

Target locked in

Keep it, keep it up

Keep it, keep it up

さあ Pick out, pick out, pick out

Alright, pick out, pick out, pick out

実りある瞬間を駆けるの

Running toward a fruitful moment

行こう No limit, limit よ

Let's go, no limit, limit, yeah

ビリビリと

Tingling all over

今きみと

Right now with you

ジリジリを

Burning bright

Give me, give me, more

Give me, give me, more

ヒリヒリの

That tingling feeling

Living, living, oh

Living, living, oh

ギリギリも

Even on the edge

楽しむの

Let's enjoy it all

金銀クリスタル

Gold, silver, crystals

欲しいのはそんなんじゃないんだ

That's not what I want

新人？リーダー？

A rookie? A leader?

誰でも構わないや

Anyone's fine with me

蒼天の下 エメラルドの海超え

Under the azure sky, crossing the emerald sea

探し出す紅一点

Seeking the one and only red flower

難しい問題パスして

Skipping over tough problems

面白いが眠る街へ

On to a town where fun sleeps

白黒付ける

Deciding black or white

知ってるバトルの

In battles I know

How to なら ABC から XYZ

From ABC to XYZ, how to win

...

...

きみに会えた

Finally met you

やっと巡り会えた

We finally crossed paths

Let me そう let me feel

Let me, yeah, let me feel

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

ドキドキしてるの

My heart's pounding

きみも同じかな

I wonder if you feel the same

陽が差す朝も

Morning rays shining through

月が見える夜も

The moonlight at night

積み上げてきたもの

What I've built up so far

ぶつけ合おう

Let's let it out

真剣勝負

A serious contest

どうしたってもう止まんない

No matter what, I can't stop now

夢に見た

On the stage I dreamed of

このステージで

Decided on you!

「キミにきめた！」

Waiting for this moment — here we go

待ち侘びたこの時をさあ

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

Woh-oh uh-oh uh-oh

ドクドクと

Feeling the pounding in my chest

感じる鼓動の先に行こう

Let's go beyond this heartbeat

磨き続けた

Kept polishing it

一撃をビリビリと今

A strike that tingles all around

狙い定めて

Target locked in

Keep it, keep it up

Keep it, keep it up

さあ Pick out, pick out, pick out

Alright, pick out, pick out, pick out

実りある瞬間にしよう

Let's make it a fruitful moment

いつでも No limit, limit よ

Anytime, no limit, limit, yeah

スカした顔のきみも

Even your smirking face

人見知りなきみも

And your shy side

下向いてた過去にバイバイを

Bye-bye to the past where you looked down

未来をゲット

Get your future

ビリビリと

Tingling all over

今きみと

Right now with you

ジリジリを

Burning bright

Give me, give me, more

Burning bright

ヒリヒリの

Give me, give me, more

Living, living, oh

That tingling feeling

ギリギリも

Living, living, oh

楽しむの

Even on the edge

...

Let’s enjoy it all
