足跡

Ikutsu mono toki no naka de nani ga nokoru darou
Aruita akashi wa ...

Zawameita kaze ga hoho wo surinuke
Asebamu SHATSU wo kawakashite yuku
Sunabokori dake ga kotae wo shitteru PURIZUMU oshieteyo

Kuyashi namida to ureshii egao no chigai nante
Hontou wa maboroshi

Furimukeba sugu soko ni wa ashiato kasaneta
Kakegae no nai nakama tachi ga iru
Itsumademo kawari no nai mono nadonai kedo
Kaetakunai mono mo aru

Hajikeru shibuki ga jimen shimerase
Chiisana niji wo ikutsu mo tsukuruyo
Fudan wa mienai kono yo de ichiban kirei na takaramono

Hitotsu hitotsu ga kakete wa ikenai
Kawari no nai inochi no kagayaki darou

Dareyori mo mae wo muite hashitta tsumori ga
Shiranai uchi ni tasukerare dekita
Nokoshitekita ashiato wa barabara da keredo
Onaji basho wo muiteiru

Furimukeba sugu soko ni wa ashiato kasaneta
Kakegae no nai nakama tachi ga iru
Itsumademo kawari no nai mono nadonai kedo
Kaetakunai kizuna ga aru

Ikutsumono toki no naka de nani ga nokoru darou
Ima made ni nani wo te ni shita no darou
Namida to ase ga nijinda musuu no ashiato
Zawameita kaze ni fukarete

Footprints

What remains in the passage of time?
Proof of my journey...

The bustling wind caresses my cheeks,
Drying my sweaty shirt as I go.
Only the sand knows the answer, show me the prism.

The difference between tears of regret and a smile of joy,
Is an illusion, truly.

I look back and see the footprints I've made,
My irreplaceable companions are there.
Nothing stays the same forever, we know,
But there are things I'd never let go.

The splashing waves dampen the ground,
Creating countless tiny rainbows.
In this world where beauty is often hidden, they are the most precious treasures.

Each one is essential, irreplaceable,
The glow of life that shines so bright.

I thought I was running ahead of everyone,
But before I knew it, I was being helped along the way.
The footprints I've left behind may be scattered,
But they all point in the same direction.

I look back and see the footprints I've made,
My irreplaceable companions are there.
Nothing stays the same forever, we know,
But the bond we share is here to stay.

What remains in the passage of time?
What have I gained so far?
My countless footprints, stained with tears and sweat,
Carried by the bustling wind.
