Ranko: Now it has become rare for my sister to write lyrics.
Although we frequently put it on our live setlist, this song is surprisingly difficult,
because of the way the bridge is played and the part where the chorus rises.
I like the contrast between the verse and the chorus~
Lyrics
怯えていた 幾千もの時をこえて
出口の無い この世界に 光が満ちる
繋がること 信じること 教えてくれたから
今すぐでも 会いに行くよ
ひとつだけ 伝えたい 声よ届け
obiete ita ikusen mono toki wo koete
deguchi no nai kono sekai ni hikari ga michiru
tsunagaru koto shinjiru koto oshiete kureta kara
ima sugu demo ai ni yuku yo
hitotsu dake tsutaetai koe yo todoke
全て 受け止める 蓮華の夢
subete uketomeru renge no yume
あの空を翔ける 懐かしい別れの記憶
抱きとめた胸の傷跡も 愛せる花になれ
ano sora wo kakeru natsukashii wakare no kioku
dakitometa mune no kizuato mo aiseru hana ni nare
泣きたい夜 乗り越えてく 強い心
それは遥か 遠い君が 残した魔法
つまづいても傷ついても守ってくれたから
今はあの日 生まれた夢 信じるだけ
nakitai yoru norikoeteku tsuyoi kokoro
sore wa haruka tooi kimi ga nokoshita mahou
tsumadzuitemo kizutsuitemo mamotte kureta kara
ima wa ano hi umareta yume shinjiru dake
全て 受け止める 蓮華の夢
subete uketomeru renge no yume
あの空を翔ける 思い出が胸締め付ける
悲しみもいつか優しさに変えていけるように
ano sora wo kakeru omoide ga mune shimetsukeru
kanashimi mo itsuka yasashisa ni kaete yukeru you ni
あの空を翔ける 懐かしい別れの記憶
抱きとめた胸の傷跡も 愛せる花になれ
重なり合う想い 咲かせて花になれ
ano sora wo kakeru natsukashii wakare no kioku
dakitometa mune no kizuato mo aiseru hana ni nare
kasanariau omoi sakasete hana ni nare
Translation
I’ve been frightened over the course of thousands of years
There’s no way out, in this world filled with light
Because you taught me to connect, to believe
I’ll come to see you right now
I just want to tell you one thing. Let my voice reach you
I accept it all, dream of the lotus
Flying in the sky, nostalgic memories of separation
The scars on my chest holding me back, become flowers that can be loved
I’ll get over the nights I want to cry with my strong heart
That’s the magic you left from far, far away
Because you protected me when I tripped and got hurt
All I can do now is believe in the dream that was born that day
I accept it all, dream of the lotus
Flying in that sky, these memories make my heart clench
So that one day I can turn my sadness into kindness
Flying in the sky, nostalgic memories of separation
The scars on my chest holding me back, become flowers that can be loved
Let our overlapping thoughts bloom and become flowers
