あぁ 夢だった　小さな頃から歌をうたうこと
会場-ホール-の仲間 ひとつになれる
一瞬-とき-は永遠
 ah yume  datta chiisa na goro kara uta wo utau koto
 HOORU no nakama hitotsu ni nareru [1]
 toki wa eien [2]
    Ah... It's been a dream of mine,
    Ever since I was small, to sing
    In the concert hall, my friends come together as one [1]
    And time is eternal [2]

―でも　ちっぽけな私に何か できるのだろうか？―
幸わせ願う気持ちばかりが　さき走るよ
 - demo  chippoke na watashi ni nanika dekiru no darou ka? -
 shiawase negau kimochi bakari ga  sakibashiru yo
    --But... what can a tiny person like me possibly do?--
    Yet my desire for happiness pushes forward

探しても 探しても 見つからない答えだけど
同じ道歩いて行きたい
辿り着く場所　それぞれ違う夢でも
 sagashitemo sagashitemo mitsukaranai kotae dakedo
 onaji michi aruite yukitai
 tadoritsuku basho  sorezore chigau yume demo
    I search, I search, and though I can't find the answer
    I want for us to walk the same road
    To reach our goals,
    Though we all have different dreams.

そう 悲しくて 何も見えない時でも 私には
ひとつの光　照らしてくれた　みんながいる
 sou kanashikute nani mo mienai toki demo watashi ni wa
 hitotsu no hikari terashite kureta  minna ga iru
    Yes, even in the sad times, when I could see nothing,
    All of you were there, 
    Being a single light that shone upon me.

届けたい 届けたい ありがとうをこの歌にのせて
離れてても信じあえると
この胸 そしてあなたの胸に　刻むまで
 todoketai todoketai arigatou wo kono uta ni nosete
 hanaretetemo shinjiaeru to
 kono mune soshite anata no mune ni  kizamu made 
    I want it to reach, I want it to reach you,
    Let my word of thanks ride upon this song,
    Until it is engraved into my heart and yours
    That even when we're apart, we can believe in each other.

あと一歩 踏み出せない…　不安に包まれたら
ここにいる仲間を思い出して瞳の中
 ato ippo fumidasenai...  fuan ni tsutsumaretara
 koko ni iru nakama wo omoidashite hitomi no naka
    I can't take another step... 
    When you are engulfed in such uncertainty
    In your mind's eye, remember your friends, who are here with you

探しても 探しても 見つからない答え それは
心から…誰もがそっと誰かを想う やさしさの風
届けたい受けとめたい　喜びも 悲しみも
だから 一粒の涙を 笑顔にかえて進もう
みんな 一緒に　手をつないで　alive
 sagashitemo sagashitemo mitsukaranai kotae sore wa
 kokoro kara... daremo ga sotto dareka wo omou yasashisa no kaze
 todoketai uketometai  yorokobi mo kanashimi mo
 dakara hitotsubu no namida wo egao ni kaete susumou
 minna isshou ni  te wo tsunaide  alive
    I search, I search, but the unfindable answer is:
    From the heart... anyone softly loving someone else,
    A breeze of kindness,
    I want it to reach you, I want you to receive it,
    Joy, and grief too,
    So turn your tears into a smile
    And let all of us hold hands together
    Alive
