光を浴びて
影を踏みしめ

一度きりの
果てしない
道が　続く

今何を求めて
今何が聞こえる？
涙と笑顔　出会いと別れを
繰り返して

一人きりの
果てしない
道を　進む

黒い傘をたたんで
悲しみ　胸にしまって
白い雲を浮かべて
もっと　高く　飛べる

明日になれば
風も止まる　雨も上がる
影は去る
光が射す

手探りで
歩き出す
光と影の中を

hikari wo abite
kage wo fumishime
	The light showers on me
	while I step, deliberately, on the shadows

ichido-kiri no
hateshinai
michi ga   tsuzuku
	The one-way [1]
	endless
	road   continues on

ima nani wo motomete
ima nani ga kikoeru
namida to egao   deai to wakare wo
kurikaeshite
	What are you seeking right now?
	What can you hear right now?
	Tears and smiles   meetings and partings
	Recurring   over and over

hitori-kiri no
hateshinai
michi wo   susumu
	Alone[2], down my
	solitary, endless
	road,   I continue

kuroi kasa wo tatande
kanashimi   mune ni shimatte
shiroi kumo wo ukabete
motto   takaku    toberu
	I close a black umbrella
	seal off the sadness   into my heart
	Floating on a white cloud
	I can fly   higher   higher

asu ni nareba
kaze mo tomaru    ame mo agaru
kage wa sari
hikari ga sasu
	When tomorrow comes
	The wind will stop   and the rain will end
	The shadows will recede
	Light will shine

tesaguri de
arukidasu
hikari to kage no naka wo
	Fumbling,
	I emerge
	from the center of light and shadow

======================================
[1] ichido-kiri = lit. [for] only one time. This implies a road that can only be taken once. "One-way" is a sufficiently close term to translate this implication.
[2] hitori-kiri = lit. just one person. "hitori-kiri no michi" implies a road that can only be taken by one person. It stresses the single-ness of the one person.
