Jibun no ibasho wo motome sagashi sa mayoi tadori tsuita kono basho wo dare nimo watashi wa shinai
I was lost, searching for a place where I could belong; Now that I've made it here, I won't give it up to anyone
I stay here. I'm gate-keeper. I for you. We're not alone
I stay here. I'm gate-keeper. I for you. We're not alone
Doko ni ireba ii no ka wakaranakute hitori de hiza wo kakae naite ita Ano watashi wa mou inai Kodoku wo kanji te nigeta ushiro sugata oikakete Mitsu kete dakishimeta nara kotoba nante iranai Nagai kami nabikasete hoho ni kaze wo ukete daichi wo fumi shimete mune hatte kokoni iru
All alone, I didn't know anywhere I could stay; I hugged my knees and cried, but that me is no more. Feeling lonely I ran away and chased after someone in the distance. When I found and embraced them, there was no need for words. I let my long hair flow loose and took the wind at my cheek. I stepped down on the earth, I puffed out my chest and stood.
Isshoni ite kizuita watashi dake janakatta daremo ga mune ni kizu wo kata sore wo kakushi kirezuni iru egao de iru koto ga watashi no buki de aru naraba utsumu kazu me wo sorasazu mae dake wo mitsumete ikou
I realized that we were in this together; I wasn't the only one. Everyone carries a weight on their chest and no one can hide it completely. If standing here smiling is going to be my weapon, Never looking down, never averting my eyes, I'll just keep looking forward.
Sonzai kachi kangaete tara kiriganai no shitte ita noni anata no kotoba hitotsu de fushigi ne fuan ga kieta
When I thought about the value of my own existence, I should have known it had no limit, But with a single word of yours – it was strange – all my anxiety vanished.
Nagai kami nabikasete hoho ni kaze wo uke te daichi wo fumi shimete anata no kaeri matte iru
I let my long hair flow loose and take the wind at my cheek. I step down on the earth and wait for your return.
Anata ga watashi no koto mitomete kureta koto ikite iku kate ni natta to kizuite wa inai deshou ne
I didn't realize the fact you accepted me for who I am Became my reason for living.
