Lyrics and translation Kobukuro - バトン




バトン
Baton
その命が走り出す為に 数えきれない程の
For that life to begin to run, countless
走者達が繋いできてくれた 一本のバトンには
Runners have passed it along, this one baton
握りしめて窪んだ跡や 何度も落とした傷
The indents left by gripping it, the scars from dropping it countless times
生き抜いた その証を受け取って
Proof of having lived, received by me
この坂道を 駆け上がるんだ
I will sprint up this slope
いつかは君も 誰かに手渡すときが来る
Someday, you too will have to pass it on to someone
まだ何も見えない 小さな手のひらに
Into those small palms that still cannot see anything
振り向かなくていいように ゆっくりと渡すよ
I will pass it gently, so that you won't have to turn around
真っ直ぐ 力一杯 走り出せるように
So that you can run straight ahead with all your might
