光をあつめて (Hikari wo atsumete) – Gather the light

from Hikari wo atsumete single.

I can’t give an answer, but I’ll continue to sing
Like the river flowing towards the shore on the opposite side of infinity
As I called your name, my tears flowed
Loneliness lurks even at lighted street corners
Under the snowy blue sky, transparent cherry blossoms bloomed

Spring, spring, even if I can’t see it now
The light pink petals dance in the wind
To you, let us walk together
Even if all future has lost its colours
Just gather the light

I’ll open the curtains even on mornings without sun
Smile like the dandelion flying with the birds
If the rain pours, if the wind blows
Let’s step out, rather than lament the future
Closing my eyes against the nightsky I looked up at with sorrow
I heard the stars’ song

Spring, spring, even if it’s faraway now
The sun will rise from behind that cloud
I can live on tomorrow if I think of you
While believing that flowers will bloom in the transience of time
Even today

I live on, holding on to indescribable feelings

Spring, spring, even if I can’t see it now
I hold the light pink petals to my heart
To you, if the spring wind blows
During the tomorrow we’ve sketched, I’ll gently open the lock on my heart
And gift you the light
And gift you the light
