English Translation

Hey, hey,
I want to say something, but I fall short of words
because I'm struck speechless. So—

Hey, hey,
We remain silent, but we don't need words
because the eyes are so eloquent.

We forget things as a result of the bugs starting to eat them.
In my memory, I see nothing but smiling faces.

In the color of dusk, we fly through the sky.
Fly on and even out of the atmosphere.
Right below, what looks smaller and smaller
is the city where you lived.

Flowers burst at the tip of my shoes.
Big flowers of fire burst into bloom.
I'll leave my whole heart here. I thought so somehow.

I saw the summer like that.

Hey, hey,
I want to know you, but I can't make up my mind
because I'm sure you'll boast about it.

There's nothing to make me feel relieved,
but the sky is beautiful today as usual.

All the things I ate should be the price of my life.
It's too late for me and I can't even be the nighthawk.

In the color of dawn, we dance in the sky.
It's nonsense to ask what to wish for.
I've grown up and forgotten.
My eyes that reflect you get in my way.

Far below, flowers boomed.
Big flowers of fire boomed.
Just hearing the sound makes me cry. I thought so somehow.

I heard the summer like that.

Hey, hey,
I want to fly, but I don't know when to stop
because I know I'll look for you. So—

In the color of dusk, we fly through the sky.
Fly on and even out of this planet's present state.
Right below, what became smaller
and vanished is the city where you lived.

Flowers burst in the summer sky.
Big flowers of fire burst into bloom.
I want to keep crying forever. I thought so somehow.

The summer like that is gone.
