Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

傷だらけの世界の頭上に

Over a battered world,

闇が重たくもたれかかって

Darkness leans heavily, hanging over us.

覚めない時の中

In this never-ending moment,

悲しみは何処までも追いすがって

Sorrow keeps clinging, going on forever.

それでも空は夜明けを探して

Even so, the sky seeks dawn,

取りに行く未来

Reaching out for the future.

僕らは弱くも儚くもないよ

We are not weak or fragile,

信じて愛して燃え尽きて行く

Believing, loving, burning out.

繰り返し　繰り返し

Again and again,

血を流すたましいが

Souls shedding blood,

夢を見るその先に

Beyond the dreams we see,

輝いて　輝いて

Shining brightly, shining bright,

新しい朝が来る

A new morning arrives.

希望が棚引く方へ

Heading towards hope’s horizon.

君を呼んでいる黎明へ

Calling you toward dawn.

失うことで堕ちて行くか

Do we fall by losing ourselves,

それとも光を追いかけるか

Or chase after the light?

選んで来た道に散らした

On the path we’ve chosen,

涙も傷も遠くなって

Tears and scars become distant,

息を殺し追憶の影に焼かれ

Holding our breath, burned by memories,

それでも鮮やかに風を切って

Still, we cut through the wind vividly,

手に入れる未来

To seize the future we desire.

情熱がいつだって灯火になるよ

Passion always lights the way.

天高く上れと狼煙を上げて

Raising signals to soar high like wolves.

風になり　花開き

Transform into the wind, blossom,

たましいを掻き鳴らす

Striking the drums of our spirits.

僕らが急ぐ場所へ

To the places we're rushing toward.

華やいで　華やいで

Dazzling, dazzling,

新しい朝が来る

A new morning arrives.

光が棚引く方へ

Heading toward the gleaming light.

夜のもう一つ向こうまで

Beyond another night,

どうしても届かない手のひらを

The palms that seem unreachable,

支えてくれる声が

The voices that support us.

いつの間に　こんなに

Unknowingly, they have come to resonate,

響いてた

Echoing within us all.

君の行く場所に　光あれと祈った

I prayed for light to shine where you go.

全ての心のため

For every heart.

繰り返し　繰り返し

Again and again,

血を流すたましいが

Souls shedding blood,

夢を見るその先に

Beyond the dreams we see,

輝いて　輝いて

Shining brightly, shining bright,

新しい朝が来る

A new morning arrives.

もうすぐ始まる歌

A song about to begin.

君を呼んでいる黎明へ

Calling you toward dawn.

傷だらけの世界の頭上に……

Over a battered world...
