The memories recorded on faded pages
Come back to life when I close my eyes.
May this innocent girl's prayers
Take flight for the skies of hope.
I sighed, but time resumes its flow before long,
Even though I stood my ground, alone.
I hum a tune that protects dreams.
When people enter dreamland,
Their desire to see each other again someday
Gets woven into threads of love.
The bedtime stories which bring out kindness in people
Are those I heard from you.
Let us softly return – to the memories from back then.
Picking up the courage to step out,
Let's head off into the wind.
If your heart should get lost,
Seek out the melody the girl sings as she sets forth.
I'll call out in a voice so warm
That it would melt even the ice.
The dawn of melting snow is too dazzling.
Turning around, I see your smiling face.
The day we'll meet again
Is definitely not far off, right?
If sorrow could turn into stars someday,
Please grant me the wishes that have taken root in my heart,
So that their radiance might descend onto the Earth.
I hum a tune that protects dreams.
In the depths of this emotion of peace
Is a soft thread of love which leads to happiness.
The bedtime stories which tell of fondness
Are those I learned from you.
Let us softly return – to the memories from back then.
