1.When I close my eyes, I can hear
2.The rustling, the colors of young birds
3.At the speed watercolor spreads,
4.I swallowed up a small yet vast world.5.
6.With each pair of shoes we outgrew,
7.We grew up a little more
8.Though the end of the mysterious slope
9.Is still out of sight.10.
11.The laughing of the jingling bells mixes with the clear wind and voices
12.Connecting happiness in a gradient
13.Shining like magic
14.Escaping from the daily hustle
15.In the shining silence, a momentary piece
16.If I lock it in a treasure chest, then
17.I won’t let go, I’ll carry it with me forever.18.
19.The more dreamlike, miraculous the moment,
20.The quicker it flies away
21.Flapping its wings, it disappears.22.
23.With each pair of shoes we outgrew,
24.We came to know the world a little better
25.Looking back, next to our footprints,
26.The seeds we dropped were sprouting.27.
28.Did someone, someday, also name the ‘tone’?
29.Did they hear the same colors as me?
30.Sometimes, I feel like crying
31.“I want these days to continue.”
32.I find myself wishing.33.
34.La la la, the canary sings
35.Mixing with the clear wind and voices
36.Connecting happiness in a gradient
37.Laughing, crying, waking up, then again
38.Escaping from the daily hustle
39.In the shining silence, a momentary piece
40.If I lock it in a treasure chest,41.
42.At the end of our connected hands, the bell laughs again.
