dooshiteru kana
anata no koto
tsumetai kaze ni
sukoshi omotta
eda ni motarete
hanashita yo ne
karada ga hiete
hi ga ochite mo
naki dashite shimatta
watashi wo mamoru you ni
damatte sobani ite kureta ne

How, I wonder,
are things going with you?
In the cold wind,
I was thinking a bit.
Leaning against a branch,
we talked, didn't we?
My body got cold,
and the sun was going down,
I let out my tears.
In order to take care of me,
Silent, you were beside me, weren't you?

fushigi na sekai
sono hitomi ni
utsushiteru you na
sonna ki ga shita
akogareda toka
yume miru koto
anata ni kitto
oshierareta
hanarebanare ni naru
sukoshi mae ni tsugeta
negai wasurenaide iru kara

A mysterious world,
within those eyes,
seems to be reflecting.
That type of feeling,
a kind of longing,
as in a dream.
You, of course,
I was able to make understand,
If we ever became seperated,
I would tell you about it a little before,
because I won't forget the wish.

tookute mo anata ni
maketaku wa nai n da
itsu made mo futari wa RAIBARU

Even if I'm far away from you,
There will be no defeat,
Forever we will be rivals.

tayori wa iranai
dai suki na tomodachi
dare ni mo iwanai
ichiban no omoide
mou ichido aeru sa
dai suki na tomodachi
wasureru koto nai
dai suki na tomodachi

I don't need to hear from you
my very favorite friend
I won't tell anyone
my most important thoughts
After all, we'll meet again,
my very favorite friend
I won't forget about you
my very favorite friend.
