Arashi mo fukeba
Ame mo furu
Onna no michi yo
Naze kewashi
Kimi o tayori ni
Watashi wa ikiru
Koko ni sachi ari
Aoi sora
 
 
Dare ni mo ienu tsume no ato
Kokoro ni uketa koi no tori
Naite Nogarete samayoi yukeba
Yoru no chimata no kaze kanashi
 
 
Inochi no kagiri yobikakeru
Kodama no hate ni matsu wa dare
Kimi ni yorisoi akaruku aogu
Koko ni sachi ari shiroi kumo
Here, oh here is happiness
When I can be close to you
In the warmth of your caress
I'm happy here with you
Please say you'll never leave me
I know that it would break my heart
I want to be near you always
For here, oh here is happiness
