Japanese / Kanji Lyrics 歌詞

舞い上がれ!
夢の果てに未来があるさ
この世界は僕らを待っていた


あふれ出す本当の願い
想いのままに進もう
君とならどこまでも行ける
駆け抜けるよ　心は自由

求める力　僕のなかにあるのを
教えてくれたのは君の微笑み

舞い上がれ!
輝きへと近づいてみせる
希望が燃える大空
いつか見た夢の果てに未来があるさ
この世界は僕らを待っていた

忘れない純粋な気持ち
望みを胸に抱きしめ
君の目が真実を語る
離れないと頷いてた

強くなれるさ　優しくなれたらもっと
わかった気がするよ君の勇気で

止められない!
熱い翼　遠くへ飛ぶよ
希望が照らす明日へ
ともに見た夢のかけら大きくなれ
この世界を僕らは追いかける
美しい世界を(新しい未来を)
目指す僕は自由に(宙の彼方へ)

渦巻く光の地図を広げ
大声で呼ぶんだ　幸せの星

舞い上がれ!
輝きへと近づいてみせる
希望が燃える大空
いつか見た夢の果てに未来があるさ
この世界は僕らを待っていた

Romaji Lyrics

Maiagare!
Yume no hate ni mirai ga aru sa
Kono sekai wa bokura o matte ita

Afuredasu hontou no negai
Omoi no mama ni susumou
Kimi to nara doko made mo ikeru
Kakenukeru yo kokoro wa jiyuu

Motomeru chikara boku no naka ni aru no o
Oshiete kureta no wa kimi no hohoemi

Maiagare!
Kagayaki e to chikazuite miseru
Kibou ga moeru oozora
Itsuka mita yume no hate ni mirai ga aru sa
Kono sekai wa bokura o matte ita

Wasurenai junsui na kimochi
Nozomi o mune ni dakishime
Kimi no me ga shinjitsu o kataru
Hanarenai to unazuiteta

Tsuyoku nareru sa yasashiku naretara motto
Wakatta ki ga suru yo kimi no yuuki de

Tomerarenai!
Atsui tsubasa tooku e to tobu yo
Kibou ga terasu ashita e
Tomo ni mita yume no kakera ookiku nare
Kono sekai o bokura wa oikakeru
Utsukushii sekai o (atarashii mirai o)
Mezasu boku wa jiyuu ni (sora no kanata e)

Uzumaku hikari no chizu o hiroge
Oogoe de yobun da shiawase no hoshi

Maiagare!
Kagayaki e to chikazuite miseru
Kibou ga moeru oozora
Itsuka mita yume no hate ni mirai ga aru sa
Kono sekai wa bokura o matte ita

English Translation Lyrics

Soar up!
There’s a future at the end of our dream
This world was waiting for us

My real wishes spill out
Let’s rush forward as we please
If I’m with you, I can go anywhere
I’ll dash through this place, for my heart is free

Your smile taught me
that the power I seek is inside of me

Soar up!
I’ll show you that I’ll get closer to the radiance
Hope is blazing in the great sky
There’s a future at the end of the dream we had one day
This world was waiting for us

I won’t forget these pure feelings
Holding my desires to my heart
Your eyes speak of the truth
and you nodded that you won’t leave me

I can become stronger; it feels like I’d understand you better
if I became kinder through your courage

I can’t stop!
My feverish wings will fly far away
to the tomorrow illuminated by hope
The piece of a dream we had together grew bigger
So we will chase after this world
Aiming for a beautiful world (a new future)
I’ll be free (going into deep space)

Unfolding a map of swirling light
I’ll cry out loudly on the planet of bliss

Soar up!
I’ll show you that I’ll get closer to the radiance
Hope is blazing in the great sky
There’s a future at the end of the dream we had one day
This world was waiting for us
