English Translation
Let me sing you an ode from a faraway land The tale of a future that is out there to be found At the finish line where the forgotten dreams and ideals come to completion In this vast universe, "I" felt so insignificant My spirit so puny that I couldn’t believe that the clouds always clear Because what I saw as I reached up to the skies Was so bright that I had to look away -And I never even realized- Tomorrow shines bright with possibilities Within reach of anybody, a treasure box waiting to be opened -And yet, and yet "my" hands remain empty- In this vast universe, "I" felt so empty inside Lost and astray, with nothing to show me the way But there’s a light at the end of the tunnel The light I have been searching for all this while And it beckons me to go to it Always, forever, and ever so weak "I" have been a coward in hiding But I have finally found the answer That helps take a big leap once again In this vast universe, every day is a struggle for "I" But now is the time to keep forging ahead Because my outstretched hand finally reached The future it has always wanted to grasp Our story will begin anew
