   I searched for the place where the rainbow begins,

2. 余った光をもらいに行ったよ

   I went to gather the leftover light,

3. 光ってないとね 誰も僕を見ないんだよ

   If I'm not shining, no one will notice me.

4. 分かったフリでもいいから

   Even if it's just pretending to understand,

5. あの火の鳥を僕は探したんだよ

   I searched for that phoenix,

6. 余った羽をもらいに行ったよ

   I went to gather the leftover feathers,

7. でもね 僕にはどれも大きすぎて

   But you see, they're all too big for me,

   The meaning I seek is just too small,

9. 光って消えるただそれだけと知りながら

   Knowing it's just about shining and fading away,

10. 光る僕はきれいでしょう?

    Don't I shine beautifully?

11. 濁って見えた明日が晴れるその訳は

    It's okay, I have no name,

14. 僕が消えるときはちゃんと泣いてよ

    But when I disappear, please cry for me.

15. そのとき 一番眩しかった星に

    At that moment, I want to be named,

16. 僕の 僕の名前つけてほしいな

    By the star that shone the brightest.

17. 嬉しいこと 悲しいことはいつも半分子ずつなの

    Happy things and sad things are always half and half,

18. だからそう 最後はゼロになれるの

    So in the end, it can all become zero.

19. 光って消えるただそれだけ信じながら

    Believing that it's just about shining and fading away,

20. 歌う僕はここにいるよ

    I’m singing, I'm right here.

21. 作ってみせるその笑顔も愛しいから

    That smile I will create is so dear to me,

22. もう昨日を探さないでよ

23. 光って消えるただそれだけと知りながら

    Knowing it's just about shining and fading away,

24. 光る僕はきれいでしょう?

    Don't I shine beautifully?

25. だからね 痛む胸に光る種を乗せて

    So, I'll carry the shining seeds on my aching heart,

26. 幸せだねって言えるまで

    Until I can say I'm happy,

27. 光ってたいの

    I want to keep shining.

28. 奪って逃げるただそれだけの命なら

    If life is just about grabbing and escaping, then
