kanji & kana

桜咲く門を緊張しながら
春風に押され入学した日
まわりのみんなが輝いて見えて
私一人だけ自信がなかった

厳しい授業の後で泣いた
何度もここから逃げたくなった
やっぱり無理かもしれない
すべてをあきらめかけた時

ぎゅっと手をつなぎながら
にこっと微笑んでくれた
名前覚えたばかりの
同じ制服の友よ
「きっと廊下の先に
夢が待ってると思う
だから一緒に行こうよ」
そっと小さな声で
分け合ったその勇気

ひまわりの花が風に揺れる頃
クラスメイトたちとひとつになれた
不安だったのは私だけじゃない
沈む太陽をみんなで眺めた

テストに落ちこぼれそうで凹み
何回も学校辞めたくなった
心のロッカー片付け
今すぐ帰りたくなったけど

ぎゅっと手をつなぎながら
道に迷わないように
前へリードしてくれた
同じ夢を持つ友よ
いつか汗や涙も
光る思い出に変わる
だから頑張って行こう
共に声掛け合って
卒業をする日まで

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!　Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
みんなで目指すんだあのステージへ
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!　Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
どんなにつらくても負けずにピース

english translation

As the sakura blossomed
I nervously pushed open the door with the spring breeze
On my first day at school
Everyone around me was shining so brightly
And I was the only one without any confidence

Tough lessons often left me in tears
And I wanted to just run away so many times
It looks like this is probably impossible for me
But just when I was about to give up

Tightly holding on to my hand
While cheerfully smiling at me
Was a friend wearing the same uniform
Whose name I had just barely remembered
In a soft voice they told me that
"Our dreams are waiting for us
Beyond these corridors
So let's reach them together"
And shared with me their courage

By the time the sunflowers swayed in the wind
I became really close with my classmates
Turns out I wasn't the only one who was worried
And all together we watched the sun set

Depression struck when I failed to keep up
And I wanted to drop out of school entirely
Although I was ready to clear out the locker in my heart
And prepare to go home

Tightly holding on to my hand
While guiding me
So I wouldn't lose my way
Was a friend who shared the same dream
Who convinced me that
"Someday our sweat and our tears
Will turn into brilliant memories
So let's continue to give it everything we have
Until the day we graduate"

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We'll all be together aiming for the same stage
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
No matter how tough it becomes we'll carry on with our peace signs
