Kanji
遠くへ行ってしまう前に 伝えなきゃと思いながら

今日も過ぎてゆく時間 笑い会って少し胸痛めて

春風が吹く夜 「離れたくないなあ」って そんな事を思って なんか余計言えなって

「明日ね」ってさよならして ひとり歩く並木の下で ふと思う 夢の跡

舞い落ちる 花びらヒラヒラ ココロの隙間 すれ抜けてく 素直になんなきゃ

どんな痛みがまた僕のココロ 襲っても 閉ざされたドアの 向こう側を 見に行くから

English Translation
Before they go far away

I think that while I have to tell

Too much time today Yuku

What a little laughter chest injury Board

What night spring breeze is blowing "Hey do not want to leave"

Made such a thing I say extra softening

What to say goodbye, "See you tomorrow"

Traces of a dream I suddenly think under the tree-lined walk alone

Dance fall

Petal flutters

Clearance of the heart

What to Do I have to honestly missing you

Any pain in my heart again Of closed door also attacked

The other side

I'll see

Trivia

 * As the story progresses, scenes featured in the opening video change. Initially, Ichigo is shown in his Fullbring's second appearance near the end, but this was later changed to feature his Fullbring's true form and eventually his restored Shinigami powers. Also, when the Shinigami reappear in the series, they are also added to the opening sequence replacing the scene that featured Sado, Uryū, Orihime, and Ginjō.
 * Near the end of the video for Harukaze, in the same scene that features Ichigo with his Fullbring (and eventually, restored Shinigami powers), he is shown walking in front of the title cards for numerous episodes prior to the Lost Substitute Shinigami Arc.
 * A slower version of the song is used in Episode 362's opening sequence.
