English Translation
The clear sky on the day I was born was so high, distant, and endless The day I heard a voice patting me on the back telling me to go ahead Faces I met in the seasons, at times hurting one another Shine by the light, the shadow extends as the sky grows further away I catch the wind and start running, overcoming the rubble At the end of this road, someone is waiting for me Dream of light shining through, at any day of the week Open the door this moment, like revealing hidden secrets Can’t hold myself longing for more, like the spinning globe The person I loved has gone to somewhere no one knows With the usual kind smile as any other day, still somewhere far away I take in the rain and start singing, not minding if seen This road continues because I wished it would continue I dream of meeting again, for ever and ever I grasped the fragment firmly, so the secret remains I’ll keep longing till the end, like the spinning globe It all starts from an innocent wish made long ago Carrying the loneliness in my heart, I turn the corner I catch the wind and start running, overcoming the rubble At the end of this road, someone is waiting for me Dream of light shining through, at any day of the week Open the door this moment, like revealing hidden secrets The joy of holding ones hand, the suffering of losing one Can’t hold myself from picturing, like the spinning globe
