Atashi wa utatte iru
Yowai KOKORO mo yureru omoi mo
POKETTO ni shimaikonde
Te no naru hou he michi naru michi he
Ayumou susumou
Aru ga mama hokoreru you ni
Yoake ni taiyou ga noboru you ni
Atashi wa MERODII wo kizamu
Hakanaku tomo tsuyoku
Atashi wa ikite yuku
Yukidoke mizu wa umi ni nagarete
Kisetsu wa megutte iku
Toki no nagare ni make nai you ni

Mirai no sora wo michi no IMEEJI wo

These lyrics are for an instrumental track, so there are no vocals. However, the title "Hakanaku Tsuyoku" translates to "Fleeting and Strong." The verses seem to convey a sense of purpose and determination, as if the music itself is the singer's voice. The first verse talks about the singer distancing herself from where she was born in order to pursue her passion for music. She carries with her both fragile and strong emotions, keeping them close in her pocket as she walks down unknown roads towards her dreams. She takes a path that leads to the sound of a bell and moves forward, focusing on the present moment rather than for the sake of someone else.
The second verse talks about how the seasons change and time flows on, yet she continues to move forward, refusing to give up. She chooses to create an image of the future sky rather than emulate someone else's image. She wants to proudly preserve her own style like a spring flower at dawn. The repetition of the line "Dare ka no tame ja naku" reminds us that she is living for herself and her own purposes, not for others.
