In the depths of the sadness I was given
In a rain of tears from thinking of you
Streaming down my cheeks without a sound
Someone will ask its meaning in song
Oh, where did you come from?
Oh, what do you watch over now?
Oh, where will you return to?
Will I be able to see those small eyes again?

Holding a multitude of emotions close
Tears make their way from the river to the sea
Often, you realized it
Singing praise to nature, tying life together
This one grain is for another’s sake
A seed watered by the rain over the land
A flower bloomed again
A river of tears, its creator unknown

Overflowing tears
Ascend to the sky after falling to earth!
Overflowing tears
Become the rain and go down the rivers!

Tears trickle down my cheeks
Please, tell me of their destination
There are days we cry, so there will be days we laugh
Simply going along with that feeling, obeying it
We understand our pain, so we’ll thank our sadness
Your tears soothed someone
I know they were somehow of help
So don’t cry needlessly!

From river to sea, then ascending to the sky again
From the clouds to rain, then reaching the earth again
If you think about it, this one drop of nature
Lives undaunted, in accordance with providence
Washing the unclean earth with tears
Once reborn, anything and everything will change
Why did a flower bloom there?
Today, somewhere, a rain of tears is falling again

Overflowing tears
Ascend to the sky after falling to earth!
Overflowing tears
Become the rain and go down the rivers!

The tears I shed
Drop by drop become rain
Watering the dried land
And reborn as stalks of rice

My sadness journeys
To somewhere far, far away
Sharing the path with this river of tears
It ascends to the sky

Overflowing tears
Ascend to the sky after falling to earth!
Overflowing tears
Become the rain and go down the rivers!

The tears I shed
Drop by drop become rain
Watering the dried land
And reborn as stalks of rice

与えられし悲しみの果てに
あなた思い涙の雨に
音も無く　ただ頬を伝う
また人はこの意味を問い詠う
あぁ…　どこから来たの
あぁ…　今何見守る
あぁ…　どこへ帰るの
その小さな瞳　また逢えるの？

数多な感情包み込み
涙は川から海へ向かい
あなたは何度悟りをし
自然を謳いし　命繋ぎ
この一粒も誰かのため
大地に雨降り潤す種
また一輪咲いた花
詠み人知らずのなみだ川

溢れ出す涙よ
地に落ちたら　空へと昇れ
溢れ出す涙よ
雨となり　川へと下れ

頬を伝い流れ出した涙
教えてください　その行き先は
泣く日あるから笑う日がある
その感情にただ倣う従う
痛み分かるから悲しみに感謝
あなたの涙は　誰か癒した
きっと何かに役立って
だからこそ無駄に泣くなって

川から海　また空へと昇る
雲から雨また大地へ届く
考えてみれば自然の一部
摂理に従い毅然と生きる
汚れた大地を涙で洗う
蘇る何から何まで変わる
あそこに花が咲いたの何故
また何処かで今日も涙の雨

溢れ出す涙よ
地に落ちたら　空へと昇れ
溢れ出す涙よ
雨となり　川へと下れ

僕が流した涙が
一粒一粒と雨となり
乾いた大地に潤いを与へ
稲穂へと生まれ変われ

僕の悲しみは遥か
遠き場所へ旅をする
なみだ川を道連れに
空へと昇る

溢れ出す涙よ
地に落ちたら　空へと昇れ
溢れ出す涙よ
雨となり　川へと下れ

僕が流した涙が
一粒一粒と雨となり
乾いた大地に潤いを与へ
稲穂へと生まれ変われ
