She returned to Japan and because of that, some of her covers are tagged with "The returnee has" (帰国子女が). She also writes English lyrics for the VOCALOID songs she covers, giving them a western touch without losing the original style; therefore, she often tags her songs with "western style" (洋楽っぽく). nano mostly covers VOCALOID but also has covered some Avril Lavigne songs.
On March 14, 2012, she made her major debut with her first album ''nanoir'', signing under the label "flying DOG". On March 16, 2013 she held her first concert.

ナノ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
夢が咲く場所はあるのだろうか?
見えない答えに戸惑ってばかり
気づかないまま季節は変わる
Another page we′re turning
As we keep on learning
寂れてた心が目覚めた
どんな小さな思いも、大きな願いも明日へと繋がる
今できる事を一つづつ
If you would take a look aroud you
どんな遠い絆も、一つの出会いも世界が広がる
ただ手を伸ばせばヒカリは
すぐそばにある
Beyond the dark the light will always shine
As long as you believe it
One voice One life
温もり届かないその心に
夢を見ることはあるのだろうか?
幼い痛みに怯えてばかり
はたせないまま夜は終わる
Where there's life, there′s meaning
As we keep on searching
途切れてた時間が流れ出した
どんな小さな笑顔も、大きな涙は心を繋げる
今伝える事を一つづつ
If you would share the words inside of you
どんな言葉よりも、強い支えは世界が広がる
ただ手を伸ばせばヒカリは
すぐそばにある
閉ざされた扉開いて
少し未来が変わる気がした
There's only one life to live
There's only one chance to give
So let our voices reach the ones who need our light now
どんな小さな思いも、大きな願いも明日へと繋がる
今できる事を一つづつ
If you would take a look aroud you
どんな遠い絆も、一つの出会いも世界が広がる
ただ手を伸ばせばヒカリは
すぐそばにある
どんな小さな笑顔も、大きな涙は心を繋げる
今伝える事を一つづつ
If you would share the words inside of you
どんな言葉よりも、強い支えは世界が広がる
ただ手を伸ばせばヒカリは
すぐそばにある
Nothing can begin without an end
So don′t be afraid
Beyond the dark a llght will always shine
As long as you believe it
The song "One Life" by ナノ is a poignant and hopeful expression of the struggles that come with life and the determination to overcome them. The first verse speaks of a world where dreams bloom but are out of reach, leaving the singer feeling lost and uncertain. Despite this, the chorus delivers a message of hope, encouraging the listener to focus on the present, take small steps forward, and believe in the light that always shines beyond the darkness.
The second verse continues the theme of overcoming struggles, describing a heart that feels cold and unreachable but still holds dreams. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the importance of small acts of kindness, sharing one's emotions, and finding support in others.
The final verse of the song takes a turn to address the listener directly, encouraging them to open the doors that stand in their way and reach for a brighter future. The song's final message is one of empowerment, reminding us that we all have the power to change our lives and the world around us.
Overall, "One Life" is a song about the human experience and the obstacles we must overcome on our journey through life. It acknowledges the difficulties we face but offers a message of hope and perseverance that inspires the listener to keep pushing forward.
