  ➔ The particle "は" marks the topic of the sentence, emphasizing "this voice" as the subject performing the action of reaching.

• どこへ向かうのだろう

  ➔ Use of "のだろう" to express speculation or uncertainty about a situation or action.

  ➔ The endings "のだろう" (nado）are used to indicate that the speaker is speculating about where they are headed.

• 君といれば この涙も

  ➔ Using "といれば" as a conditional form meaning "if with (you)", and "も" to mean "also" or "even"—emphasizing that even tears are affected.

  ➔ The phrase "といれば" indicates a conditional "if with (you)", and "も" adds emphasis, suggesting that even tears become part of the shared hope.

• 希望への ひとつになるよ
