Hikare Inochi

Shining Life

Hikare Inochi

Until yesterday, no one knew
きのうまでないていたことなんて
kinou made naiteita koto nante
The world keeps turning
だれひとりしらずにせかいはまわる
dare hitori shirazu ni sekai wa mawaru
The traffic light turns green with a calm face and walks again
しんごうはあおへいきなかおでまたあるいていくんだ
shingou wa ao heiki na kao de mata aruite ikun da

The truth is, about my cowardly self
ほんとうはおくびょうなじぶんのこと
honto wa okubyou na jibun no koto
No one knows, morning comes again
だれひとりしらずにまたあさがくる
dare hitori shirazu ni mata asa ga kuru
With a calm face, I get on the usual train
へいきなかおでいつものでんしゃにのる
heiki na kao de itsumo no densha ni noru

That person looking into the distance
とおくみつめるあのこも
tooku mitsumeru ano ko mo
Someone smiling
ほほえんでるだれかも
hohoenderu dareka mo
Happy things, sad things
うれしいことかなしいこと
ureshii koto kanashii koto
I take everything in
ぜんぶからだにうけて
zenbu karada ni ukete
It will blow through like the wind
かぜのようにふきぬけるんだろう
kaze no you ni fukinukerun darou

Shining life
ひかれいのち
hikare inochi
Shouting from deep within
むねのおくでさけぶ
mune no oku de sakebu
Even when feeling like giving up
どんなにくじけそうなときも
donna ni kujikesou na toki mo
The sky is beautiful, kind words
そらがきれいだとかやさしいことば
sora ga kirei da to ka yasashii kotoba
That's what kept me going
それですすめた
sore de susumeta

Shining future
ひかれみらい
hikare mirai
Shouting until it's heard
きこえるまでさけぶ
kikoeru made sakebu
Not heading anywhere in particular
どこへとむかうわけでもなく
doko e to mukau wake demo naku
Just to meet you today
きょうのきみにあうために
kyou no kimi ni au tame ni
It's okay to live
いきてみたっていいだろう
ikite mitatte ii darou
Proudly
ほこらしげに
hokorashige ni

Even this moment of pain
いたみをかんじたこのしゅんかんも
itami wo kanjita kono shunkan mo
No one knows, the world keeps turning
だれひとりしらずにせかいはまわる
dare hitori shirazu ni sekai wa mawaru
Protecting the band-aid, walking without changing
ばんそうこうできずをまもってかわらずあるけるかい
bansoukou de kizu wo mamotte kawarazu arukeru kai?

Tiny birds hopping around
とびまわるちいさなとり
tobimawaru chiisana tori
Flowers blooming everywhere
どこにでもさくくさばな
doko ni demo saku kusabana
Sunny days, rainy days
はれたひやあめふりのひ
hareta hi ya amefuri no hi
Surely, they feel the determination
きっとまけまいとつよく
kitto makemai to tsuyoku
Of living beings
こどうをかんじてるんだろう
kodou wo kanjiterun darou

Shining life
ひかれいのち
hikare inochi
Shouting from deep within
むねのおくでさけぶ
mune no oku de sakebu
Even when feeling like giving up
どんなにくじけそうなときも
donna ni kujikesou na toki mo
The warmth of a smile, a voice
ちょっとわらえたことやこえのぬくもり
chotto waraeta koto ya koe no nukumori
That's what kept me going
それですすめた
sore de susumeta

Shining future
ひかれみらい
hikare mirai
Shouting until it's heard
きこえるまでさけぶ
kikoeru made sakebu
Not a grand symphony
おおきなゆめえがくでもなく
ookina yume egaku demo naku
Just to see today's sky
きょうのそらをみるために
kyou no sora wo miru tame ni
It's okay to live
いきてみたっていいだろう
ikite mitatte ii darou
Proudly
ほこらしげに
hokorashige ni

Everyone has a different story
だれもちがうものがたり
daremo chigau monogatari
Moving their hearts while struggling
まよいもがきながらこころをうごかして
mayoi mo gaki nagara kokoro wo ugokashite
The world is not something to give up on yet, right? Just kidding
せかいはまだすてたもんじゃないよ”なんてね
sekai wa mada suteta mon janai yo” nante ne
Loving the ordinary moments
なもないいまをあいして
na mo nai ima wo aishite

Shining life
