sleepless city, the calling voice on sleeve
trotting on to meet that child

no need to put on a gentle face, just
go on sleeping, don’t wait for me
forget me

stardust, won’t you drop your light
on a corner of the city, for these children

those on their way home will hang their heads low
rubbing their tired eyes, holding your hand

no need to look at the tired faces, just
let me hear that song from the comics
that song you just learned

stardust, won’t you light us
so we won’t trip in the darkened road

stardust, won’t you drop your light
on a corner of the city, for these children

come, come, into my arms
may the shooting star fall into your eyes

眠れぬ街　呼ぶ声を袖に
早足で歩く　あの子を迎えに

優しい顔しないでいい　ただ
眠っててほしい　私を待たずに
私を忘れて

星屑や　光落とせよ
街のひと隅　この子らのもとへ

家路につく　ひとはうつむき
眠い目をこする　君の手をひいて

疲れた顔　見ないでいい　ほら
聴かせてほしい　漫画のあの歌
覚えたての歌

星屑や　ここを照らせよ
暗がりの道で　転ばぬよう

星屑や　光落とせよ
街のひと隅　この子らのもとへ

おいでおいで　この腕の中
流れ星落ちろ　君の目に落ちろ
