Kanji Romaji Translation

宵闇とひぐらしが
混ざり合う頃に 
僕らは歩きだす

ほら 繋がれた
手と手が
離れないように
糸をだどっていくから
そばにいさせて・・・

Yuuyami to higurashi ga
Mazariau koro ni
Bokura wa arukidasu

Hora tsunagareta
Te to te ga
Hanarenai you ni
Ito wo tadotte iku kara
Soba ni isasete…

When the twilight and higurashi
Both congregate,
We begin to walk forth

See, how our joined hands
Won't ever grow apart?
'Cause if they do, I'll just retrace
The strings connecting us
So let me stay by your side...

強く、高く、
時を超えて 
あの日に帰る気がした
眩しすぎたあなたの声 
もう一度会えるから

おかえり

Tsuyoku, takaku,
Toki wo koete
Ano hi ni kaeru ki ga shita
Mabushisugita anata no koe
Mou ichido aeru kara

Okaeri~

Ever stronger, ever higher,
Crossing time and space
I feel like I'm returning towards that day
Then once again, I'll be reunited
With your resplendent voice

Welcome home~

I feel like I'm returning towards that day
Then once again, I'll be reunited
With your resplendent voice

繋ぎだした手と手が
離れる頃 僕は
手を振って歩き出す

違う道を歩いてゆくんだ 
笑いながら
はしゃぎ、ふざけあえる
時にまた 
いつか会えるか

Tsunagidashita te to te ga
Hanareru koro boku wa
Te wo futte arukidasu

Chigau michi wo aruite yukunda
Warai nagara
Hashagi, fuzakeaeru
Toki ni mata
Itsuka aeru ka

When our joined hands
Finally grow apart, then
I'll just swing my arms as I walk forth

We'll go our separate ways,
As we smile together
Once there comes a time
When we frolic and make merry,
I wonder if we'll meet again?

強く、高く、
時を超えて 
あの日に帰る気がした
眩しすぎたあなたの影 
もう一度・・・

Tsuyoku, takaku,
Toki wo koete
Ano hi ni kaeru ki ga shita
Mabushisugita anata no kage
Mou ichido…

Ever stronger, ever higher,
Crossing time and space
I feel like I'm returning towards that day
Then once again, I'll get to see
Your resplendent form...

高く、遠く、
空を超えて 
あの日に帰れるのなら
眩しすぎて目をそむけた 
あなたへ還るから

おかえり

Takaku, tooku,
Sora wo koete
Ano hi ni kaereru no nara
Mabushisugite me wo somuketa
Anata e kaeru kara

Okaeri~

Ever higher, ever farther,
Crossing the vast skies,
If I could go back towards that day,
I'll return to you whom I looked away from
Since you were all too resplendent for me

Welcome home~
