[English]

Arashi - One Love

I try to tell you, but it doesn't get through

Sometimes I can't be honest

Having crossed the seasons we wept, we

Now we shine brightly

The shapes of happiness we each draw overlap

Now they become a great love

Let's keep living together forever

I'll vow our love even a hundred years from now

You are my everything

I believe, I just believe

To the one who shares the same time with me

No matter who you are, no matter who I am

Each and every one is dear

If you're here, I need nothing else

Because I'll surely make you happy

I waited for you in the rain

Without even knowing the meaning of kindness

A night when we were hurt by passing each other

Yet we made it this far

Our irreplaceable meeting links miracles

Memories overlap

The opening song rings out

You always supported me

To the friends who laughed and cried with me

With all my heart, just one thing

The words I give are thank you

I'll vow our love even a hundred years from now

You are my everything

I love you, I just love you

Let's promise a shared tomorrow

Only one person in the whole world

I chose you

If I'm with you, any future...

Will always keep shining

[Japanese]

嵐 One Love

伝えたくて伝わらなくて

時には素直になれずに

泣いた季節を越えた僕らは

今とても輝いてるよ

それぞれ描く 幸せのかたちは重なり

今大きな愛になる

ずっと二人で生きてゆこう

百年先も愛を誓うよ

君は僕の全てさ

信じているただ信じてる

同じ時間を刻む人へ

どんな君もどんな僕でも

ひとつひとつが愛しい

君がいれば何もいらない

きっと幸せにするから

雨の中で君を待ってた

優しさの意味さえ知らず

すれ違いに傷ついた夜

それでもここまで来たんだ

かけがえのない 出逢いは奇跡を繋いでく

思い出重なりあう

はじまりの歌鳴り響いて

どんなときも支えてくれた

笑い泣いた仲間へ

心込めてただひとつだけ

贈る言葉はありがとう

百年先も愛を誓うよ

君は僕の全てさ

愛しているただ愛してる

同じ明日約束しよう

世界中にただ一人だけ

僕は君を選んだ

君といればどんな未来も

ずっと輝いているから
