Happy 5x18, Arashi. ❤
This is a random lyrics post for a number of reasons:
1) I'm still not sure how I should go about posting a massive lyrics translation dump on my journal (without it being too "spammy").
2) It's one of my favorite B-sides from their recent singles, and the lyrics work well for 5x18.
3) I posted videos on
Twitter using this song, so I thought it'd be good to provide translations. :)
More posts to come for the 18th anniversary celebration, but it may be on Hawaii time. :P

序章告げる夜明けが 夢追う瞳にゆらめく
虹の素顔 それは熱く深く
未完成だった計画 あの日の誓いが色付き
惑いよりも 理想に染まる
出会いの数だけのLights
僕らなら 奏で合える Wherever
旅立ちの音色が鳴り響いて 太陽の季節に焦がれた
2度はない弧を描き Carry it on 翼広げ突き進め
1千1回目の挑戦が 実りを迎える未来へ
僕らは掴み取る A fadeless sky
離れた街を想って 掌を伸ばす潤んだ茜色
君もきっと 同じ風の中
闇夜を駆ける箒星 懐かしい声が聴こえた
鼓動のように リフレインしている
憧れの先へとFlow
何度でも越えて行ける Whenever
遠回りさえも悪くはないさ そこでしか見れぬ光景がある
今日が導いてく Search for goals 答えは真心で決める
366のストーリー すべてが1度きりだから
まだ見ぬ地を求め Long distance flight
果てぬ約束 辿る軌道 地平線に灯る希望
敵はいつでも 1秒先のMyself そうだろう?
Dream Seeker
やがて届くだろう
遠い星座 無邪気な夢 互い語った日々が
遥か時代を駆ける 次の空へ伝う
旅立ちの朝陽が目映ゆくて 閉じた瞼の裏想い出す
独りきりでは 今日のキセキを迎えられなかったよ
Friends

TRANSLATIONS
Daybreak marks the beginning of our journey, within our hopeful eyes we reflect
The true colors of the rainbow, they shine with passion and emotion
Our imperfect plans, the promises from that fated day come to life,
And radiate with confidence, there is no longer any doubt
For every encounter, a light shimmers in celebration
If we're together, our harmonies will carry us wherever
Our melody resounds as we begin our journey, chasing dreams in seasons of optimism,
No two rainbows we sketch are ever the same, carry it on, spread our wings and continue ahead
We may fail 1,000 times, but the next chance may be the one to bear fruit
We'll achieve a fadeless sky with our own strength
Reminiscing a faraway city, I reach my hand out toward a sunset-colored sky
I know you're out there living the same moment with me
A comet lights the darkest of nights, I thought I heard your voice,
Like my beat of my heart, it echoes like a refrain
We'll flow beyond mere daydreams
No matter how many tries it takes, we can overcome whenever
What's wrong with taking the long way there? We may find a future we can only encounter on that path,
Today guides us as we search for goals, the answer lies in our determined hearts,
366 stories to tell, each moment is fleeting,
Toward an unknown destination, we take a long distance flight
An eternal promise, we continue on course, our dreams shine along the horizon
The greatest enemies we face are our future selves, right?
Dream Seeker
One day, we'll get there
The faraway constellations, our sincerest dreams, and those days we shared our goals together
Echo now louder than ever, beckoning us toward our next destination
The dazzling sunrise commences our journey, I close my eyes and remember
That I couldn't have experienced such joy without you,
