大長編daichouhenのno探検ごっこtanken gokko　落書きrakugaki地図chizuのno上ue

An epic game of exploration, on top of a scribbled map

迷子maigoはwa迷子maigoとto出会ったdeatta　不燃物置き場funenmono okibaのno前mae

A lost child met another lost child — in front of the non-burnable waste area

嫌いなkirai na思い出omoideばっかりbakkari詰めたtsumeta　荷物nimotsuをwo抱えてkakaete

Clutching bags stuffed with nothing but hated memories

ずっとzutto動けないugokenai自分jibunごとgoto埋めてumete　とto笑ったwaratta

"Bury me along with my stuck self," they laughed

Of course we're alike — that's the kind of place this is

どこdokoからkara来たkitaのnoとto尋ね合いtazuneai　すぐにsugu ni馬鹿馬鹿しくなるbakabakashiku naru

Asking each other where we came from, it quickly felt ridiculous

ここkokoにni来るkuruまでmadeのno経緯keiiなんてnante　教えてoshieteどうするdou suru

What's the point of telling someone how you ended up here?

行きたいikitai場所bashoはwa全部zenbu廻ったmawatta　泣きそうなnakisou na雲kumoのno下shita

We'd been everywhere we wanted to go — under clouds about to cry

なんにもnannimo無くしてないnakushitenaiのにnoni　空っぽkarappoのno気がしたki ga shita　それでもsore demo

I hadn't lost a single thing, yet I felt completely empty — even so

大丈夫daijoubuだってdatte　言ってitteあげなくちゃagenakucha

I need to tell them it's okay

大丈夫daijoubuじゃないja nai自分jibunもmo　動けないugokenaiしなshi na　あぁaa　もうmou

But I'm not okay myself, and I can't move either — ah, forget it

見つけたmitsuketaものmonoはwa本物honmonoだよdayo　出会ったdeatta事kotoはwa本当hontouだよdayo

What you found is real — the fact that we met is true

If you're going to throw it away, I'll carry it — let me have it

I see — with this much, we won't go hungry for a while

一緒にissho ni　ここkokoからkara　離れようhanareyou

Let's leave this place together

友達tomodachi増えたfueta探検ごっこtanken gokko　降りだしたfuridashita雨ameのno下shita

An exploration game with more friends now, under the rain that started falling

迷子maigoはwa迷子maigoとto出会ってdeatte　リュックサックryukkusakkuのnoとりかえっこtorikaekko

A lost child met another lost child — swapping backpacks

We'd been everywhere we wanted, and when we'd had enough

あんなにanna ni近いchikai　ずっとzutto遠いtooi　あのano雲kumoにniのぼろうnoborou

That cloud so close, yet always so far — let's climb up there

ひとつhitotsuだけdake　誤魔化したgomakashitaままmamaだda　お互いotagai気付いてるkizuiteru

There's one thing we both glossed over — we both know it

何naniをwo背負ってseotteもmo　自分jibunのnoものmonoじゃないja naiならnara

No matter what you carry, if it's not really yours

どれだけdore dake大事にdaiji niしてもshite mo偽物nisemonoだよdayo　でもdemo大事なdaiji na事kotoはwa本当hontouだよdayo

No matter how much you treasure it, it's a fake — but treasuring it, that part is real

預けたazuketaものmonoならnara要らないiranaiさsa　迷子maigoのnoままmamaでもdemo

If it's something I entrusted, I don't need it back — even if I stay lost

君kimiさえsaeいればireba　きっとkitto僕bokuでdeいられるirareruさsa

As long as you're with me, I'm sure I can still be me

一緒にissho ni　ここkokoからkara　離れようhanareyou

Let's leave this place together

大長編daichouhenのno探検ごっこtanken gokko　泣きやんだnakiyanda雲kumoのno下shita

An epic game of exploration, under clouds that stopped crying

離れたhanaretaのにnoni振り返るfurikaeruとto　不燃物置き場funenmono okibaのno前mae

We'd left and yet when I looked back — the non-burnable waste area

もう一度mou ichidoやってyatte驚いたodoroita　リュックサックryukkusakkuのnoとりかえっこtorikaekko

We swapped backpacks one more time and I was stunned —

素敵なsuteki na思い出omoideばっかりbakkari詰めたtsumeta　荷物nimotsuにniなってたnatteta

They'd become bags stuffed with nothing but wonderful memories

今こそima kosoちゃんとchanto　言ってitteあげなくちゃagenakucha

Now is the time to say it properly

さよならsayonara言えないienai自分jibunにni　言わなくちゃiwanakucha

To the me who can't say goodbye — I need to say it

It's okay — what you found is real — the fact that we met is true

The person I met is a living thing — you, alive, were smiling

You walked beside me when I was lost — this is real baggage, not fake

With this much, I'm sure I can still be me

一緒にissho ni　ここkokoからkara　離れようhanareyou

Let's leave this place together

涙namidaとto涙namidaがga出会ったらdeattara架かるkakaru　弓yumiのno唄uta

When tear meets tear, a bow appears — a song of the bow

行きたいikitai場所bashoはwa全部zenbu廻ったmawatta後atoでde　またmata会えたらaetara

After we've been everywhere we wanted, if we can meet again

荷物nimotsuのno無いnai体karadaふたつfutatsuでde　そのsono弓yumiをwo渡ろうwatarou

With two unburdened bodies, let's cross that bow

あんなにanna ni近いchikai　ずっとzutto遠いtooi　あのano雲kumoにniのぼろうnoborou

That cloud so close, yet always so far — let's climb up there
