Just for one day with you,

Just for one day with you,

I could trade all my life.

I could give up everything in my life.

きみとなら すこしも惜しくない

If I’m with you, I don’t regret it for a second

The song you sing beside me, and the one I made

どれもきっとひとつも

None of these

替えがきかないもの だとしたら

Are replaceable, if they are all irreplaceable
