Ending theme for anime “Ao no kanata no four rhythm”.
from a-gain single.
——
The sky I looked up at is gaping wide
With white clouds floating
The sound of comrades laughing fades away
Just like the me today
Small sighs hidden quietly behind the sound of waves
Even though I did so well today
I can’t catch up to the present
As your reliant self grows strong
The sky’s color will change too
Because the wind knows your frustration and loneliness
Let’s soar again today
The beginning is here
Look, a scenery different from yesterday spreads out
As you smile and nod slightly
Let’s spread our grasped hands wide
And fly together
Alone at midnight, unable to sleep
I remember you
Telling me that you are who you are
I shut my eyes tight, but
Small events cling in my chest, causing pain
Even so, let’s soar again today
The sky won’t escape
Everyone is the same, as I wait with a smile
We can only battle endless frustration
Letting go of dreams
And chasing after them with free form
Shine and courage are fragile
The waves swallow ideals and hopes, but
Even so, I want to touch them
I’ll soar again today
I may not do it well, but
Now, embracing a scenery different from yesterday
Because I want to show you a smile from my heart
Appealing to the sky
Let’s spread our hands wide
And fly together

Mi ageta sora ni tada pokkari to
Shiroi kumo ukabu
Nakama no warai goe tooku naru
Kyou no watashi mitai da ne
Chiisana tameiki mo namima ni sotto kakushita
Kyou wa anna umaku yareta no ni
Ima wa oi tsukenai
Tayorinage na kimi ga tsuyoku nari
Sora no iro mo kawatteku
Kaze wa kuyashisa mo samishisa mo shitteiru kara
Mou ichido tonde miyou
Kokokara ga hajimari
Kinou to wa chigau keshiki ga hora hirogaru
Kasuka ni unazuita kimi ga hohoemu kara
Nigiri shimeteta te wo ippai ni hiroge
Isshoni tobou
Mayonaka hitori kiri nemurenai
Kimi wo omoi dasu
Jibun wa jibun da to ii kikase
Tsuyoku me wo tsuburu no ni
Chiisana dekigoto ga mune ni hari tsuite kurushiinda
Soredemo tonde miyou
Sora wa nigenai kara
Minna onaji da to hohoemu you ni matteru
Kesenai kuyashisa wa tatakau shika nai yo ne
Ookiku hanatta yume
Jiyuu na foomu de oi kakete yuku
Kagayaki ya yuuki wa morokute
Risou mo kibou mo nami ni nomarete shimau kedo
Soredemo furetakute
Mou ichido tobi datsu yo
Umaku wa nai keredo
Kinou to wa chigau keshiki wo ima dakishime
Kokoro kara no egao kimi ni misetai kara
Yobi kakeru sora
Te wo ippai ni hiroge
Isshoni tobou

KANJI
見上げた空にただぽっかりと
白い雲 浮かぶ
仲間の笑い声 遠くなる
今日の私みたいだね
小さなため息も波間にそっと隠した
今日はあんな上手くやれたのに
今は追いつけない
頼りなげな君が強くなり
空の色も変わってく
風は悔しさも淋しさも知っているから
もう一度飛んでみよう
ここからが始まり
昨日とは違う景色がほら広がる
微(かす)かに頷いた君が微笑むから
握りしめてた手をいっぱいに広げ
一緒に飛ぼう
真夜中一人きり 眠れない
君を思い出す
自分は自分だと言い聞かせ
強く目を瞑(つぶ)るのに
小さな出来事が胸に張りついて苦しいんだ
それでも飛んでみよう
空は逃げないから
みんな同じだと微笑むように待ってる
消せない悔しさは 戦うしかないよね
大きく放った夢
自由なフォームで追いかけてゆく
輝きや勇気は脆(もろ)くて
理想も希望も波にのまれてしまうけど
それでも触れたくて
もう一度飛び立つよ
上手くはないけれど
昨日とは違う景色を今 抱きしめ
心からの笑顔 君に見せたいから
呼びかける空
手をいっぱいに広げ
一緒に飛ぼう
