River
流れゆく川のように
揺れる波のように
輝いてはきらめき合い
絶え間なくすすんでゆく
Nagareyuku kawa no you ni
Yureru nami no you ni
Kagayaite wa kiramekiai
Taema naku susundeyuku
Like a river,
Like the swaying waves,
Shining, sparkling as they meet
Continuing without cease
川のように生きたい
Kawa no you ni ikitai
I want to live like a river.
広い空の下
緑の地球の上
太陽へ力強く
大地の上たたずんで
咲いている花のように
輝いては散ってゆく
この小さな花のように
Hiroi sora no shita
Midori no chikyuu no ue
Taiyou e chikaradzuyoku
Daichi no ue tatazunde
Saiteiru hana no you ni
Kagayaite wa chitteyuku
Kono chiisa na hana no you ni
Under the wide sky
Above the green earth
Standing strong above the ground
Stretching towards the sun
Like a blooming flower
Shining as its petals scatter
Like this little flower
人は生きてゆく
Hito wa ikiteyuku
People are living
燃え上かる炎も
消えてゆく燈も
Moeagaru honoo mo
Kieteyuku akari mo
As the burning flame
And the fading light
それぞれに生きる人生
燃え尽きるその時まで
Sorezore ni ikiru jinsei
Moetsukiru sono toki made
The lives, blazing on
Until they burn out
力強く生きたい
力強く生きたい
Chikaradzuyoku ikitai
Chikaradzuyoku ikitai
I want to live strong,
I want to live strong.
