Lyrics
Ano chiheisen / Kagayaku no wa
Doko ka ni kimi wo / Kakushite iru kara
Takusan no hi ga / Natsukashii no wa
Ano doreka hitotsu ni
Kimi ga iru kara
Within those glittering lights on the horizon,
you must be hiding somewhere.
When I see those twinkling stars
I feel nostalgic because
I know you are in one of them.
Saa, dekakeyou!
Hitokire no PAN
NAIFU, RANPU kaban ni
Tsumekonde
Let’s set out,
pack a bag with
a piece of bread,
a knife, a lamp,
Tousan ga nokoshita / Atsui omoi
Kaasan ga kureta / Ano manazashi
The passion that my father left me,
That look that my mother gave me.
Chikyuu wa mawaru / Kimi o kakushite
Kagayaku hitomi / Kirameku tomoshibi
Chikyuu wa mawaru / Kimi o nosete
Itsuka kitto deau / Bokura o nosete
The earth is spinning, concealing you
Your eyes are shining in the glittering light
The earth is spinning, carrying you
carrying us who shall meet someday.
Toosan ga nokoshita / Atsui omoi
Kaasan ga kureta / Ano manazashi
This passion is that my father gave me,
That look my mother gave me.
Chikyuu wa mawaru / Kimi o kakushite
Kagayaku hitomi / Kirameku tomoshibi
Chikyuu wa mawaru / Kimi o nosete
Itsuka kitto deau / Bokura o nosete
The earth is spinning, concealing you
Your eyes are shining in the glittering light
The earth is spinning, carrying you,
carrying us who shall meet someday.
