English Translation
The tears flow for someone,
Like a prayer rolling down my cheeks
Don’t hide that as a “weakness,”
Accept it as “kindness.”
It makes me forget to even breathe
To find the sky within my eyes
Only the sun is gistening,
What do I continue to search for?
Gazing at the mirror, that fated day
I would surely see you,
And on your own back
You will also have wings
You are different, the world is changing…
The flames of love reach for a dream,
And pass through a wavering mirage.
The light from the heavens,
And water in the earth,
A prayer (ANGELUS), the strength
in your heart to reach the future
If I had a wish come true,
I would choose to be the wind.
Your feathers that cast away the doubts
Catch hold of my wind
My pounding heart and feelings that I fear,
Of the pain mixed into the past,
When I break free, there will be
The colors of the rainbow.
Every second the world changes,
Sculpted by the beating of love
A desire like the blazing sun
A dream deeper
Than the ocean,
A prayer (ANGELUS), strength we seek for
To light through the darkness
“If I continue to run, I’m sure to take flight…”
You are different, the world is changing,
The flames of love reach for a dream,
And pass through a wavering mirage
The light from the heavens,
And water in the earth,
A prayer (ANGELUS), the strength
in your heart to reach the future,
And gather the shards of passion
