Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
雪崩は消える 花も咲く
青い山脈 雪割桜
空のはて
今日もわれらの 夢を呼ぶ
古い上衣よ さようなら
さみしい夢よ さようなら
あこがれの
旅の乙女に 鳥も啼く
雨にぬれてる 焼けたあとの
名も無い花も ふり仰ぐ
青い山脈 かがやく嶺の
なつかしさ
見れば涙が またにじむ
父も夢みた 母も見た
旅路のはての その涯の
青い山脈 みどりの谷へ
旅をゆく
若いわれらに 鐘が鳴る

The third verse is about a nameless flower that looks up towards the blue mountain range and its shining peaks, which only makes the sight all the more poignant and tears up the eyes of the singer.
