この手を握り 憎しみを叫び 僕は愛する人を
守れることが 産まれた意味だと 喜んで信じた
Kono te wo nigiri Nikushimi wo sakebi Boku ha ai suru hito wo
Mamoreru koto ga Umareta imi da to Yorokondeshinjita
Hold this hand, let out a scream of hatred. I'm happy to believe that
Protecting the person I love is the reason I was born.

 

産まれた命は愛するけれど 僕らはその命を消していくんだ
何度産まれても 愛された命で戦う
Umareta inochi ha ai suru keredo bokura ha sono inochi wo keshiteiku n da
Nando umarete mo Ai sareta inochi de tatakau
I love the life I was born into, but our lives will someday end.
No matter how many are born, all struggle through the life they love.

 

踏み出した足は力強く跳ね 踏みつけられた悲鳴に気付きはしない
Fumidashita ashi ha chikara tsuyoku Fune fumitsukerareta himei ni kizuki
ha shinai
I press on with these strong legs, walking, continuing to walk on, not realising
I'm screaming.

 

子供のままでいられれば誰も 犠牲にはならないよ
僕たちはただ 学んでいくほど 自分を好きになる
Kodomo no mama de irarereba dare mo  Gisei ni ha naranai yo
Bokutachi ha tada manandeiku hodo Jibun wo suki ni naru
If we were just like children, no one would ever become a victim.
We just love ourselves so much it's what we learn to do.

 

愛を慈しみ 神の名を尊ぶ
自分をかわいがるのは その辺にして
在り続けている罪を 見つけてくれ
Ai wo itsukushimi Kami no na wo toutobu
Jibun wo kawaigaru no ha Sono hen ni shite
Aritsuzuketeiru tsumi wo Mitsukete kure
Being in love with love, honouring the name of God,
And loving oneself... can't you see that
Continuing to do nothing but that is a sin?

 

子供のままでいられれば誰も 犠牲にはならないよ
僕たちはただ 学んでいくほど 間違える
この手を握り 憎しみを叫び 僕は愛する人を
守れることが 産まれた意味だと 喜んで信じた
Kodomo no mama de irarereba dare mo  Gisei ni ha naranai yo
Bokutachi ha tada manandeiku hodo Machigaeru
KOno te wo nigiri Nikushimi wo sakebi Boku ha ai suru hito wo
Mamoreru koto ga Umareta imi da to Yorokondeshinjita
If we were like children, no one would become a victim.
We just have made so many mistakes that it's what we've learned.
Hold this hand, let out a scream of hatred. I'm happy to believe that
Protecting the person I love is the reason I was born.
