Hitomi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let us worship in your triumph
And this story is mine, and this moment is mine
Can I steal your pain and shed it away?
To amend this pain, to avoid this pain
Can I share this pain and carry away?
Can I steal your pain and shed it away?
To amend this pain to avoid this pain
Can I share this pain and keep away?
Lalalalalalala
To the day in my new era
Lalalalalalala
To the day in my dreaming land
Towards the light and this moment is mine
Can I steal your pain and shed it away?
Towards the light and this moment is mine
Can I steal your pain and shed it away?
Sono hitotsubu no shizuku de sae mo
Hana o mamoru kamo shirenai
Sono waraigao tada sore dake de
Sashinoberu te ni mo nareru
Sono furueteru koe atsumereba
Kaze o okosu kamo shirenai
Sono inochi to iu hakanaki akari
Tomoshite ashi o susumeyou
Lalalalalalala
Itsuka mata aou
Lalalalalalala
Ikiteru kagiri
Lalalalalalala
Toki o koe toraerareteru
Afureru kono omoi wa nani?
Yasashisa ga mejiri ni niau
Ano hito-tachi wa ima doko ni iru no?
God bless our king, its a bright light day
Let us worship in your triumph
Tonari ni wa atarashii seki
Mirai no tame ni mata deau
Kazaranai mama dekiru dake
Ikite miyou kyou to iu hi
Kanashikute hito wa setsunai
Sore de mo doko made mo michi wa tsuzuku
Lalalalalalala
