Be a Youth

Shounen de Are

Someone like me, wouldn't it be better if I was never born?Boku nanka umarenakya yokatta no?
Says a wounded heartKizutsuita kokoro ga yuu (iu)
That’s what they want you to thinkSou omowaseru no wa yatsura no nerai da
Don’t give up, youthMakeruna shounen yo

Even a rest for your heartKokoro o yasumeru koto sura
Wasn't allowed, wasn't it?Yurushite morae nakattandana
Play a little moreMou sukoshi asobe
Get out of the boring stuffNuku toko wa nui te ike
Choose only the fun thingsTanoshii koto dake o erabe

Ahead of your outstretched handSono te o nobasu saki ni
There’s endless joy waitingKagiri nai yorokobi ga aru kara
The pain that you can’t carryKakae kirenai itami wa
It's fine if you don’t carry itKakae nakute betsuni ii

There’s no need to suffer unnecessarilyMuri ni kurushimu hitsuyou ga doki ni aru
Everyone’s free-spirited, originallyDare shi mo kimamade moto moto
Like a bird that can soarHabatakeru tori no you ni
Like a fish that can leapUmi o haneru uo no you ni
In that playgroundSono asobi ba de
Freer than anyoneDare yori mo jiyuu ni
Be a youth who can laughWaraeru shounen de are

If you dress in trendy clothesHayari no fuku de kikazareba
Tomorrow those will become oldAshita ni wa furukunaru
Whether you chase it or can’t catch itSore oikakeru mo oikakenai no mo
Choose what seems interestingOmoshiro sou na hou o erabe

Ahead of those feet stepping forwardSono ashi ga fumidasu saki ni
There’s endless happiness waitingKagiri nai shiawase ga aru kara
If you have worries you don’t understandWakaranai nayami naraba
It’s fine if you don’t understand itWakaranakute betsuni ii

Don’t rush and act like you know it allIso ga ba maware shittakaburi suruna
Everyone’s an unfinished divine gift (賜物)Dare shi mo mikan no tamamono
If it's about the reason for why you've been bornUmare te kita imi naraba
It’s still amazing even if you add that laterAto tsuke demo subarashii
Being blown by the windKaze ni aorare
Give yourself to the streamSeseragi ni mi o makase
Be a youth who can learnManaberu shounen de are

The pain that you can’t carryKakaekirenai itami wa
It's fine if you don’t carry itKakaenakute betsu ni ii
Unnecessarily sufferMuri ni kurushimu
Where is the need for that?Hitsuyou ga doki ni aru
Everyone’s free-spirited, originallyDare shi mo kimama de moto moto

Like birds that soar the skyHabatakeru tori no youni
Like fishes that leap above the seaUmi o haneru uo o no you ni
Above the starsKono hoshi no ue
Freer than anyoneDare yori mo jiyuu ni
Be a youth who lovesAisuru shounen de are
