ビューティフル・ネーム
ゴダイゴ Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

今日も子どもたちは、
小さな手をひろげて
光と、そよ風と、友だちを呼んでる
だれかがどこかで答えてる
その子の名前を叫ぶ
名前、それは燃える生命
ひとつの地球にひとりずつひとつ
Every child

has a beautiful name
A beautiful name
a beautiful name
呼びかけよう名前を、
すばらしい名前を
今日も子どもたちの歌声が世界を
大きくつつむだろう、
大きくまわるだろう
ひとりの子どものかなしみも
仲間の名前に溶ける
名前、それは燃える生命
ひとつの地球にひとりずつひとつ

だれかがどこかで答えてる
その子の名前を叫ぶ
名前、それは燃える生命
ひとつの地球にひとりずつひとつ

Every child
has a beautiful name
A beautiful name
a beautiful name
呼びかけよう名前を、
すばらしい名前を
どの子にもひとつの
生命が光ってる
呼びかけよう名前を、
すばらしい名前を
Every child on earth
has a beautiful name
A beautiful name,
a beautiful name
呼びかけよう名前を、
すばらしい名前を
どの子にもひとつの
生命が光ってる
呼びかけよう名前を、
すばらしい名前を
Every child
has a beautiful name

A beautiful name,
beautiful name
