Japanese Romaji
Senaka no kage ga nobikiru sono aima ni nigeru

Hagare ochita hane ni mo kizukazu ni tobu

Machikado amai nioi ryuusenn touku mukou kara

Dokoka de kita you na nakigoe

Yokaze ga hakobu awai kibou wo nosete

Dokomade yukeru ka

Sore wo kobamuyou ni sekai wa yurete

Subete wo ubaisaru

Yume nara sameta

Dakedo bokura wa mada nanimo shiteinai susumu

Makiru no taida wo

Tachikira you na soburi de ukabu

Umare ochita kumo made miorosu you ni tobou

Machikado chi no nioi yuusen tooku mukou kara

Doko kade kita you na naki koe

Dorodoro nageruru fukaku akai

Tsukakiga arawarete furareru rosai

Detarame na hibi wo tachi kiritai

Nani kuwanukao de owaranu youni

Yokaze ga hakobu awai kibou wo nosete

Dokomade yukeru ka

Sore wo kobamuyou ni sekai wa yurete

Subete wo ubaisaru

Yume nara sameta

Dakedo bokura wa mada nanimo shiteinai susumu

English Translation
I try to escape before my shadow is fully cast.

Flying away, not bothering to notice my wings have fallen off.

A sweet scent from far, far away drifts across the street corner.

And I hear a familiar voice crying out.

How much father can we make it,

with only the night wind's fleeting hopes to carry us?

The world trembles like it wants to stop us,

Taking everything away

I'm not dreaming any more,

And we haven't done anything yet, but still we'll keep going!
