Ano yama wo koete
Ima sugu ai ni yuke
Nayami ga aru nara tabi ni yuke
Kokoro wo kitaete
Hitori no tabi ni yuke
Shiroi eki wo kisha wa ugokidasu
Kimi wo nosete
Ai suru nakama no tame ni yuke
Namida wo kourasete
Minna no tame ni yuke
Kikoeru ano uta koe awase utaou
Tsudzuita michi wa
Eien to shinjite
Taisetsu na hito ni tsuite yuke
Inochi wo asubete
Subete wo sutete yuke
Kikoeru ano uta koe awase utaou
Mada ano eki de
Matte iru to shinjite
The lyrics of Sarah Alainn's song "Poppoya" convey a sense of urgency and a desire to be reunited with someone important. The first two lines translate to "If you want to see someone, cross that mountain and go to them. Go to them right now." The singer seems to be urging themselves or someone else to take action and not waste any time in seeking out the person they miss.
The next two lines suggest that if there are any worries or troubles, going on a journey alone can be a way to clear the mind and heart. The following lines imply that a train is about to leave, and the singer invites the person they miss to come along, saying "Ride with me" as they head towards their destination.
The chorus repeats the sentiment of going on a journey for the sake of loved ones, with the added exhortation to "sing together" and "believe in forever," as they continue down the path they've chosen. The final two lines repeat the opening lines, urging the listener to move forward and trust that the person they long for is still waiting for them at the station.
Overall, the song appears to be a call to action, emphasizing the importance of taking risks, following one's heart, and valuing the connections we make with others, even if it means embarking on a journey alone.
