[English]

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now

Hey, the shape of what I hold in my hand

Whenever I share it with someone

It gradually gets smaller

One day, it will disappear

But love, just by sharing it with someone

See, it grows even bigger

You, I’m glad I met you

You, I’ve been looking for you

You, overlapping more and more

The melody flowing between our staring eyes

You, from the bottom of my heart

You, I want to make you happy

You, the happiness I feel

That's the answer I’ve been searching for

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now

Let’s believe in each other, our beautiful love song

The melody of two becoming one in harmony

If you open your heart clearly

You can surely hear the line, the unending refrain

Someone points their finger

Our love, even if we laugh

It’s okay, don’t be afraid

Because love, surely, can’t be shared with someone else

Its existence can’t be proven

You, I’m glad I met you

You, I want to sing with you

You, overlapping more and more

The melody that erases this confusion and anxiety

You, from the bottom of my heart

You, I want to make you happy

You, the happiness I feel

That’s the answer I’ve been searching for

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now

You, I’m glad I met you

You, I’ve been looking for you

You, overlapping more and more

The eyes I now gaze into, the melody flowing

You, from the bottom of my heart

You, I want to make you happy

You, the happiness I feel

That’s the answer I’ve been searching for

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Sing, sing your song, sing, sing your song, sing it!

Love, so just keep on singing now
