ayashiku kagayaita
                    tsuki yo ni oi-kakeru
                    doko made yami nanoka?
                    itsu made ima nanoka?

                         They seek answers in
                         The oddly brilliant moonlight night
                         How deep is the darkness?
                         How far is the present?

                    tooku satta kaze ni kataru
                    hito wa wake mo shirazuni

                        And people speak to dying winds
                         Without knowing the reasons

                    kotoba wa subete takaku mau
                    sei-naru yami hiki-komarete
                    hoshi sae kao wo aozamete
                    hikaru koto wo yamete shimau

                         Their words are bourne higher
                         Drawn into the sanctifying darkness
                         Even the stars dim their faces
                         As brilliance fades away

                    mukashi no tomodachi ni
                    moratta kotoba dake
                    chiisaku kagayaite
                    uchuu no chiri ni naru

                        Only the words received
                         From friends long ago
                         Flicker in motes
                         Streaking across the sky

                    haruka kanata kaze wo tsurete
                    dare mo wake mo shirazuni

                         And everyone leads faraway winds
                         Without knowing the reasons

                    mayotta ai no omoide ga
                    kanashii hodo sora wo kakeru
                    mirai wa kimi no mune wo saki
                    hohoemi sae kowasu darou

                         Memories of strayed love
                         Soar to the sky in sadness
                         The future breaks your heart
                         And crushes your smile

                    tooku satta kaze ni kataru
                    hito wa wake mo shirazuni

                         And people speak to dying winds
                         Without knowing the reasons

                    kotoba wa subete takaku mau
                    sei-naru yami hiki-komarete
                    hoshi sae kao wo aozamete
                    hikaru koto wo yameru darou

                        Their words are bourne higher,
                         Drawn into the sanctifying darkness
                         Even the stars dim their faces
                         As brilliance fades away

                    mayotta ai no omoide ga
                    kanashii hodo sora wo kakeru
                    mirai wa kimi no mune wo saki
                    hohoemi sae kowasu darou

                         Memories of strayed love
                         Soar to the sky in sadness
                         The future breaks your heart
                         And crushes your smile
