Kanji
君と僕握り締めた 二つの手の中で 産まれた光　今、放とう

琥珀色の夕焼けに染められた 街は　悲しい光と影　映していた いくつもの奇跡の糸 繋がって絡まって　辿り着いたよ 始めるのは　今、この場所から

雨のち晴れ　あの雲になれ 今を泳いでゆく その心　縛り付けてる 躊躇いふりほどいて

君と僕握り締めた 二つの手の中で

消えることない君の証 自由なその両手で ここから　また　始めよう

English
In these two hands that you and I tightly grasped, Let’s now release the light that was born

The town, being dyed amber by the sunset, was casting painful light and shadows Many miraculous threads have at long last brought us together It starts now, from this place

The clear after the rain becomes clouds and swim through the present Your heart is tied You show hesitance as you untie it

In these two hands that you and I tightly grasped [Is] the proof that you’ll never disappear With your free hands

Let’s start again from here
