Original Lyrics: Chessboard Lyrics (Romanized)

Into this chessboard-like world, we were born without any rules
A checkerboard pattern of happiness and sorrow, somewhere in there, we breathe


On this board without a king, what roles have we been given?
Places we can go, places we can’t go, places we should aim for, we breathe without knowing


Someone unexpectedly comes close, when the wind blows, we drift apart
Memories increase with each repeated emergency landing


Looking back, a gently swaying cat toy, sprouted regardless of black or white
Tickling hearts with the blade’s edge, growing without withering


In this chessboard-like world, we somehow began to stand on solid ground
Deciding on the places to go, places not to go, places to return to, we walk and decide on our own


Leaving it to the wind like cotton seeds, though I envy the time when we could fly
In the sky, a small square easily overlooked, that’s where I met you


The game continues
What awaits us on this field next?
Taking one step at a time, sowing seeds carefully…


With big strides, like a leaping knight or queen
Every day can’t be like that
That’s why we stumbled, turned back without progressing
Even on those days, from your footsteps and sprouts
All the repetitions, doubts, regrets, departures


Beautiful green, I can see it here
The proof of your existence will surely grow with time
Beautiful green, even useless memories
A past you want to erase, someday, they will surely take on color


And in this chessboard-like world, someday
Even if I lose sight of you
Will we meet again on this endless board?
Until the day the answer awaits, we just breathe without knowing

チェスボードみたいなこの世界へ僕らは ルールもないままに生まれてきた
幸せと悲しみの市松模様 そのどこかで息をする


王様もいないこの盤上で僕らは どんな役を与えられたんだろうか?
行ける場所 行けない場所 目指すべき場所 知らないままで息をする


不意に誰か隣に来て 風が吹けば離れ離れ
繰り返す不時着の数だけ増えるメモリー


振り返れば優しく揺れる猫じゃらし 白も黒も関係なく芽生えた
穂先で心をくすぐりながら 枯れることなく伸びている


チェスボードみたいなこの世界で僕らは いつしか地に足がつき始めた
行く場所 行かない場所 帰るべき場所 自分で決めて歩いていく


綿毛みたいに風に任せ 飛べた頃を羨むけど
空中からじゃ見落とすような小さな1マス そこであなたに会えたんだ


ゲームは続いてく
このフィールドで今度はどんな事が待ち受けているのだろう?
一歩づつ大切に種を蒔きながら…


大きな歩幅で ひとっ飛びのナイトやクイーン
みたいになれる日ばかりじゃない
からこそ躓いた 進めずに引き返した
そんな日にも芽生えてる あなたの足元から 足跡から
繰り返しも迷いも後悔も旅立ちも全て


美しい緑色 こちらには見えているよ
あなたが生きた証は 時間と共に育つのでしょう
美しい緑色 役に立たない思い出も
消したいような過去も いつかきっと色付くのでしょう


そしてチェスボードみたいなこの世界でいつか
あなたの事を見失う日が来ても
果てないこの盤上でまた出会えるかな?
その答えが待つ日まで 知らないままでただ息をする
