RAINBOW / Ayumi Hamasaki
from RAINBOW album.

——

Just wish really really hard
And everything will begin
Because to believe
Is to wish

We’ve probably hated ourselves
And thought about becoming something else
But as we start to patch up our disguises
We realize what is important

If we cannot be ourselves
Then there’s no meaning

Just wish really really hard
And everything will begin
Because to believe
Is to wish

What are we waiting for?
To anticipate something
And to wish for something
Seems so similar, but somehow
Different

How do others see us? What do they say about us?
These things have become inconsequential
But first, we need a precious person
Whom we don’t need to hide our hearts from

If we cannot accept ourselves
Then there’s no meaning

“There’s only one truth”
Just who decided on that, and when?
The era with this kind of thinking
Has already passed

Don’t be afraid, once you find
The direction where light is shining from
Spread your wings
And soar high, high up

Just wish really really hard
And everything will begin
Because to believe
Is to wish

Just wish really really hard
And everything will begin
Because to believe
Is to wish

What are we waiting for?
To anticipate something
And to wish for something
Seems so similar, but somehow
Different

ROOMAJI

Tsuyoku tsuyoku negau koto de
Subete wa hajimatte ikun da
Shinjiru koto sore ga
Negai sono mono sa

Jibun ga iya da tte betsu no nanika ni tte
Kawarou to kangaete miru kedo
Yosooi bakari de tsukuroi hajimete
Kanjin na koto ni ki tsukasareru

Watashitachi wa watashitachi jishin
De inakereba imi ga nai

Tsuyoku tsuyoku negau koto de
Subete wa hajimatte ikun da
Shinjiru koto sore ga
Negai sono mono sa

Nani wo matteiru no
Kitai kakeru koto to
Negai kakeru koto wa
Niteru you de marude
Chigau mono

Dou mirareteru tte nani iwareteru tte
Sonna koto wa mou dou demo yoku tte
Kokoro kakusazu ni irareru daiji na
Hito ga hitsuyou dakedo ne mazu

Watashitachi ga watashitachi jishin
Mitomenakereba imi ga nai

Shinjitsu nara hitotsu nante
Ittai dare ga itsu kimeta no
Sonna jidai wa mou
Toori sugita koro

Obienaide hikari no sasu
Sono houkou wo mitsuketara
Tsubasa hiroge takaku
Takaku mai agare

Tsuyoku tsuyoku negau koto de
Subete wa hajimatte ikun da
Shinjiru koto sore ga
Negai sono mono sa

Tsuyoku tsuyoku negau koto de
Subete wa hajimatte ikun da
Shinjiru koto sore ga
Negai sono mono sa

Nani wo matteiru no
Kitai kakeru koto to
Negai kakeru koto wa
Niteru you de marude
Chigau mono

KANJI

強く強く願うことで
全ては始まって行くんだ
信じる事それが
願いそのものさ

自分が嫌だって 別の何かにって
変わろうと考えてみるけど
装いばかりで繕いはじめて
肝心な事に気付かされる

私たちは私たち自身
でいなければ 意味がない

強く強く願うことで
全ては始まって行くんだ
信じる事それが
願いそのものさ

何を待っているの
期待かける事と
願いかける事は
似てるようでまるで
違うもの

どう見られてるって 何言われてるって
そんな事はもうどうでもよくって
心隠さずにいられる大事な
人が必要だけどねまず

私たちが私たち自身
認めなければ 意味がない

真実ならひとつなんて
一体誰がいつ決めたの
そんな時代はもう
通り過ぎた頃

怯えないで光の差す
その方向を見つけたら
翼広げ高く
高く舞い上がれ

強く強く願うことで
全ては始まって行くんだ
信じる事それが
願いそのものさ

強く強く願うことで
全ては始まって行くんだ
信じる事それが
願いそのものさ

何を待っているの
期待かける事と
願いかける事は
似てるようでまるで
違うもの
