Hoshiakari (星灯)

[Romanized:]
Doushite samusa kanjinain darou
Yokaze ni kami naibiiteru noni
Mune no naka no kimi mo issho ni
Fushigi sou na kao shiteru

Omoi ga chikara ni kawaru koto
Kimi no yuuki ni furete shitta no
Hitori aruku no mo kowakunai yo
Tooi hoshi ga kimi ni mieru

Eranda no wa tada kimi wo mamoru koto
Sore dake de ii hazu na no ni
Doushite darou onaji ashita ga mitai
Kanawanai yume da to shitemo negatteshimau

Sekai wa toki ni yasashikunai ne
Mamoru mono ga oosugiru yo
Namae wo yobu koe mo sono egao mo
Isshun hikari hodokeru

Tsuyoku nareru watashi wa hitori janai
Jibun no ashi de aruite ikeru
Kono ryoute ni kakaekirenai hodo
Attakai mono moratta yo kimi ni

Akiromenaide saigo made michi o sagasou
Nani ga tadashii nante wakaranai
Soredemo shinjite iru

Doushite samusa kanjinain darou
Tonari ni kimi wa inai noni

Eranda no wa tada kimi o mamoru koto
Sore dake de ii wake janai
Ima doushite mo onaji ashita ga mitai

Kanawanai yume da to shitemo negattechimau

[Translation:]
Why is it that I don't feel the cold
Even though the night breeze is blowing through my hair
You are here with me in my heart, too
You're making a puzzled-looking face

That feelings can turn into strength
I learned that through experiencing your courage
I'm not afraid to walk alone anymore
I can see a distant star in you

All I chose was to protect you
That should have been enough
I wonder why I want to see the same tomorrow as you
Even if it's an impossible dream, I can't help wishing for it

The world can be unkind sometimes, can't it
There are too many things to protect
The voice that calls your name, and that smile of yours
For an instant, the light gently comes undone

I can become stronger because I'm not alone
I can keep walking on my own two feet
More than these two hands can possibly hold
You gave me something so warm

Don't give up; let's search for the way until the very end
I don't know what is truly right
Even so, I still believe

Why is it that I don't feel the cold
Even though you're not here beside me

All I chose was to protect you
But that alone isn't enough
Now, more than anything, I want to see the same tomorrow as you
Even if it's an impossible dream, I can't help wishing for it
