[English]
The Autumn breeze rises, brushing through the hair
Only peaceful clouds are in the sky
The season is back to the start
Many hours are piled up
Feelings are buried in hazy memories
Recalling that season
Adds color to the black-and-white world
Through the rosy clouds and the blue sky
When colors are dispersing
The light that is within reach in the darkness
Is growing brighter
Through day and night, beyond time
Holding my halted hands
And wanting to say
That even though not a glimpse of light can be seen on this road
There is your season that will certainly come
Above me, who was tired of harsh gaze
When the blue rain falls
I exhale a breath of green light
When the waves of the stained sea along the yellow horizon
surge
The light that can fill the void world
Unfolds
Through day and night, beyond time
Holding my halted hands
And wanting to say
That even though not a glimpse of light can be seen on this road
There is your season that will certainly come
Since you endured, the current season
Has reached you finally
Shining with dazzling light
Even in the gloomy days when there was no color
The light has now just reached
