Original Romanized Translation

暗い空に映える 数え切れぬ星が ひとつひとつ貴方を 捉えるような

kurai sora ni haeru kazoe kirenu hoshi ga hitotsu hitotsu anata wo toraeru you na

The countless stars sparkling in the night sky… It is as if I treat each one of them as you.

ほんの一間それも 欠ける事はないわ 何処にいても必ず 感じられる

hon no hitoma sore mo kakeru koto wa nai wa doko ni itemo kanarazu kanjirareru

It is for the briefest moment, yet it does not wane! No matter where you are, I can certainly sense you.

この月 ゆっくり照らす光が 優しく貴方を 包み込むより 刹那に 切なに 誰より降り注いだ星のよう

kono tsuki yukkuri terasu hikari ga yasashiku anata wo tsutsumikomu yori setsuna ni setsu na ni dare yori furisosoida hoshi no you

The light that gently shines upon the moon, Rather than tenderly wrapping you up, Is like a star, which had rained momentarily, eagerly, more than anyone…

些細なその仕草もみな全て 伏せた瞳 ついた吐息さえも みんなみんな 生きている証拠よ 消して伏して 何処へ行くと言うの

sasai na sono shigusa mo mina subete fuseta hitomi tsuita toiki sae mo minna minna ikiteiru akashi yo keshite fushite doko he iku to iu no

These trivial actions, and everything else… My covered eyes, and even the heavy sigh I give out… All of them are proof that I am alive! I shall disappear, and they will ask where I am heading…

やがて朝日昇り 星は白み消えて 少しだけど 貴方を 遠くに感じ

yagate asahi nobori hoshi wa shirami kiete sukoshi dakedo anata wo tooku ni kanji

Before long, the morning sun will rise, and the stars will fade to white and disappear. It’s only a little, but I feel your presence, somewhere far away.

だけどそんな残滓 あたたかくて好きよ 胸に抱いて眠るわ また逢いましょうね

dakedo sonna zanshi atatakakute suki yo mune ni daite nemuru wa mata aimashou ne

However, such a residue is warm, and I am fond of it. I shall hold it to my chest and sleep! Let’s meet again, okay?

星見えぬ 午前の晴れ間も そう ほんの僅かでも 雲の間に間に

hoshi mienu gozen no hare ma mo sou hon no wazuka demo kumo no ma ni ma ni

Though it is a clear morning, and the stars cannot be seen, Yes… even though it was just the smallest amount, between the clouds…

貴方感じた だけどもう いつからかそれすらも 幾億の 星の呼びかけ 応えない

anata kanjita dakedo mou itsu kara ka soresura mo ikuoku no hoshi no yobikake kotaenai

I felt your presence. However, since who knows when, even that, And the appeals of thousands of stars, are no longer answered.

嗚呼 貴方がもう 居ない事を知った 喪失感まるで氷みたい

aa anata ga mou inai koto wo shitta soushitsukan maru de koori mitai

Aah, I knew that you were already gone… My sense of loss is just like ice.

それを融かすものは 無いのだけど 落ち着いてる私なぜか居るの

sore wo tokasu mono wa nai no dakedo ochitsuiteru watashi naze ka iru no

Though there may be nothing that can thaw this ice, I have calmed down, and for some reason, I am here.

そして再度夜は 陽を侵し降りる 永く繰り返される 自然の法則

soshite saido yoru wa you wo okashi oriru nagaku kurikaesareru shizen no housoku

Thus, the night invades the sun again, and descends… It is the law of nature, one that has been repeated for eternity.

それに倣いこれも また一つの定め そして星の一部に加わるのね

sore ni narai kore mo mata hitotsu no sadame soshite hoshi no ichibu ni kuwawaru no ne

Furthermore, I, who imitate this, am yet another law, And perhaps I will join in as one part of a star…

やがて朝日昇り 星は白み消えて 久し振りに貴方 世の何処かで感じ

yagate asahi nobori hoshi wa shirami kiete hisashiburi ni anata yo no doko ka de kanji

Before long, the morning sun will rise, and the stars will fade to white and disappear. For the first time in a while, I feel your presence, somewhere in the world.

だけどそんな残滓 あたたかくて好きよ 胸に抱いて眠るわ アリガト

dakedo sonna zanshi atatakakute suki yo mune ni daite nemuru wa arigato

However, such a residue is warm, and I am fond of it. I shall hold it to my chest and sleep! Thank you…
