JAPANESE
はるかはるか数億年もの
遠い昔この地球は生まれた
くり返される歴史のなかで
僕らは命受け継いだんだ
私にはこんな場所から
この歌を歌う事でしか
伝えられないけど
もう一度だけ思い出して
僕らの地球のあるべき姿
そしてどうか忘れないで
どうかどうか忘れないで
きっときっとそんなに多くの
事は誰も望んでなかった
それぞれの花胸に抱いて
いつか大きく咲けるようにと
私にはこんな場所から
この歌を歌う事でしか
伝えられないけど
君がもしほんの少しでもいいから
耳を傾けてくれればうれしいよ
もう一度だけ思い出して
泣きながらも生まれついた
君の夢や明日への希望
そう全てがこの地球にある
私にはこんな場所から
この歌を歌う事でしか
伝えられないけど
君がもしほんの少しでもいいから
耳を傾けてくれればうれしいよ
もう一度だけ思い出して
僕らの地球のあるべき姿
そしてどうか忘れないで
どうかどうか忘れないで
ENGLISH (Translation)
Long, long ago, in the far-off
past, this world was born.
In the ever-repeating history,
we have inherited life.
But from here, the only way
I can tell you this is by
singing this song.
Remember, just one more time
the form this world should have.
And please, don't forget,
please, please don't forget.
Surely no one was hoping for
any of those terrible things.
Hold the flowers to your heart,
and pray that they may some day bloom.
From here, the only way
I can tell you this is by
singing this song;
I'll be happy if you'd lend me
your ear, even just for a little bit.
Remember, just one more time
how we were born, crying, into this world.
Your dreams and hopes for tomorrow
are all in this world.
From here, the only way
I can tell you this is by
singing this song;
I'll be happy if you'd lend me
your ear, even just for a little bit.
Remember, just one more time
the form this world should have.
And please, don't forget,
please, please don't forget.
