「人は純白に輝く生き物だ」
People are creatures that shine pure white.
それはどうかな ほら またあちこちで
Well, I wonder about that, look, again everywhere,
諍いが止まぬ変わらない世の中だ
In a world that never stops fighting, unchanged.
「人が作り上げた」 皮肉なもんだ
"Humans have created this," such irony.
僕達の倫理ってもんは
Our ethics, I wonder,
こんなにも汚れてしまったのかい
Have they become this soiled?
誰かが気づいてくれたらいいな
I hope someone notices.
いつか いつか いつの日か
Someday, someday, one day,
知らぬ間に誰かを傷つけて
Unknowingly hurting someone,
人は誰かの為に光となる
People become a light for someone else.
この丸に地球に群がって
In this circle, gathering on Earth,
人はなにかの為に闇にもなる
People sometimes become darkness for something.
「人は優しさを育む生き物だ」
"Humans are beings that nurture kindness,"
「嬉しさ・悲しさ」全部抱き「寄せてる」
"Embracing all joy and sorrow, gathering them close,"
大衆の一部と化しても 価値はそうも振れず
Even as part of the crowd, our worth remains unshaken.
「人が作り上げた」 素晴らしいんだと
"What humans have built" is truly amazing.
憎いその可愛さと憂うその瞳の
That hateful cuteness and those sorrowful eyes,
愛が実ればいいなと
I hope love can flourish.
神様が定めたこの世界に
In this world set by the gods,
何を残して逝ければいいだろう
What should we leave behind as we depart?
泣かないよ もう泣かない
I won't cry, no more tears to fall.
開かない扉はさ、開かない意味があり
Doors that won't open, hold their own meaning.
若いこの層 お年を召したその層
The young of this generation, and the old of the past.
どちらももう 共に寄り添い合う
Both sides now, we cling to each other.
その度になにかを欲しがって
In those moments, we all long for something.
人は自分の為に傷を負わす
People bear wounds, all for their own sake.
醜いなりに心に宿る
Even in our flaws, kindness takes its place.
優しさを精一杯に愛そうと
I’ll love with all my might the warmth I find.
醜さも精一杯に愛そうと
I’ll cherish every bit of the beauty in pain.
