Lyrics
Romāji
Ima mabuta tojitara sobani kanjiru
Kimi ga kureta kotoba kuyashinamida mo
Nagare nagare mata kisetsu wa sugite
Kuri kaesu...
Nakitai toki wa hora naite ii yo
Tamerau koto nante shinakute ii yo
Kanashimi hareru made koko ni irukara
Kimi no mikata de irukara
Hikari no sasu mirai e
Soko ni nani ga aru ka wakaranaikeredo
Nani mo kowagaru koto wa naikara
Mayowazu ni sā ikou
Forever my friend zutto zutto
Negatteru kimi no egao kagayaku yō ni
Itsu made mo itsumo itsuno-bi mo
Hitori janai don'na toki mo
Onaji uta ima mo hibiku tsunai deru
Yakusoku no melody
Oh you're my best friend
Shiawase ni naru tame hito wa umarete
Shiawase ni suru tame tsuyo-sa oboeru
Dare mo hitori dewa ikite ikenai
Yowa-sa o kamishimenagara
Kogoeta te o kasanete
Ano hi na kushita yume no kakera atsumeyou
Meguri ai wa fushigina kiseki shiawase kanadeyou
Forever my friend zutto zutto
Kawaranai tatoe betsu no michi o erabi
Hanarete mo mata meguri aeru
Hitori janai itsumo itsumo
Onaji sora no shita omou kanji teru
Kitto daijōbu
Forever my friend zutto zutto
Negatteru kimi no egao kagayaku yō ni
Itsu made mo itsumo itsuno-bi mo
Hitori janai don'na toki mo
Onaji uta ima mo hibiku tsunai deru
Yakusoku no melody
Afure dasu melody
Oh you're my best friend
English
Now everytime I close my eyelids, I feel near you
The words you gave me, and the remorseful tears.
Like stream flowing, again the season passed
Repeatedly ...
If you want to cry, it's OK to cry out
If you hesitate/waver, it's OK to stop doing it
Until your sorrow ceases, I'll be here
Since I am your mikata(ally/friend)
Head for the future in which there shines light
Even though (we) don't know what will happen
There is nothing to be afraid of
Without confusion(Don't get lost), hey, let's go
Forever my friend always and always
I hope your smile be always shining
Forever and ever (lit. indefinitely, whenever, and in whichever day)
You're not alone, never
The same song is still resounding, connecting us
The melody of promise
Oh you're my best Friend
People are born for happiness
(And) In order to be happy/blessed, we learn fortitude
Nobody can be living alone
(And) Everyone holds his weakness tight
Holding (each other's) frozen hand
Let's collect the fragments of dream lost before
That we met each other is a marvelous miracle, (so) let's chant1 the happiness
Forever my friend always and always
This will never change, even if we choose different ways
Even if we are separated, still we will meet again
You're not alone, never, ever
Under the same sky we miss2, and we feel
It'll surely be fine
Forever my friend always and always
I hope your smile be always shining
Forever and ever (lit. indefinitely, whenever, and in whichever day)
You're not alone, never
The same song is still resounding, connecting us
The melody of promise
The overflowing melody
Oh you're my best Friend
1.In the original text, Japanese uses a verb which is for "playing with an instrument" and here it cannot be properly translated because of the lack of such verb in English. Therefore, "chant" is used instead.
2.In the sense of "thinking".
