Kanji:

小さなその手から伝わるぬくもり
壊れてしまいそうな君の音が聞こえた

君が君が深く傷ついて
涙、涙知ったその胸は
いつの日か誰かの傷ついた心を
暖めるのでしょう

苦しいほど君を知ってるよ
その強さも深い悲しみも
君の目はいつでもあの空の向こう側を
見ていること

苦しいほど君を愛しても
届かないことさえも知ってるよ
いつの日か描いた君の夢叶うように
私は祈るだけ

静かな暗闇で 見上げた星空
今の私に似た 淡い星を見つけた

遥か昔 放たれた光
ちゃんとちゃんと届いているから
微かな光でも 揺るがない心で
君を照らしたい

この世界で君と会えたこと
そんな君を好きになれたこと
それだけでそれだけで
生きていく理由になる
不思議なほど

苦しくても愛してしまうよ
この鼓動は嘘をつけないの
いつの日か描いた君の夢叶う日まで
私は生きてたい

大丈夫だよ 大丈夫だよ
君はきっと光になる
私にはもう見つめられぬほど
君は眩しいから

苦しいほど君を知ってるよ
その強さも深い悲しみも
君の目はいつでもあの空の向こう側を
見ていること

苦しいほど君を愛しても
届かないことさえも知ってるよ
いつの日か描いた君の夢叶うように
私は祈るだけ

English Translation:

I can feel warmth coming from that small hand.
I heard your voice, and it sounded like you were about to break down.

You have been deeply hurt,
and your heart has tasted the bitterness of tears.
One day, that very same bosom of yours
will impart warmth to the wounded heart of someone else.

I understand you painfully well.
I know about both your strength and your deep sorrow,
as well as the fact that you eyes are constantly
gazing at the other side of the sky.

I also know my love won't reach you
no matter how much I try to love you.
Therefore, I can merely pray
that your long held dream would come true one day.

As I looked up at the starry sky in the silent darkness,
I found a faint star which bore a striking resemblance to me.

The light I released in the ancient past
has already properly reached its destination,
so even though my light is faint now,
I want to shine over you with an unwavering heart.

That I was able to meet you in this world,
and that I fell in love with you,
these two things alone
have become the reason of my life.
How incredible!

Even though it's agonizing, I think I'm falling in love with you.
This beating heart of mine does not lie.
Until the day when your long held dream comes true,
I wish to keep on living.

It's okay. It's okay.
You will definitely transform into light.
You will be too dazzling
for me to stare at you.

I understand you painfully well.
I know about both your strength and your deep sorrow,
as well as the fact that you eyes are constantly
gazing at the other side of the sky.

I also know my love won't reach you
no matter how much I try to love you.
Therefore, I can merely pray
that your long held dream would come true one day.
