Kanji:

抱きしめないで
私のあこがれ
密かな腕の中
このままでいいから

その青い瞳
美しい愚かさ
あなたのなにもかも
奇跡だと信じた

人はゴンドラに乗り漂い流れる
出会いそして別れ
短い真夏
哀しみとよろこびくり返して

いつかは終わる一時の恋でも
あなたは永遠を私に残すだろう

水を含んだ風が頬をなでてゆく
何もかも忘れて
壊してしまえ

こんな小さな自分も明日も
あなたを愛してる . . .

抱きしめないで
私のあこがれ
密かな腕の中
このままでいいから 

English:

Please don't embrace
my longing
secretly in your arms.
Because I'm fine the way I am.

Those blue eyes.
Beautiful foolishness
I believed everything about you
was a miracle.

People ride a gondola, drifting and floating away,
meeting, then parting.
A short mid-summer.
Sadness and happiness repeat again.

This one-time love will end eventually, but
you will leave me for eternity,right?

A damp wind strokes my cheek.
Forget everything.
Break it off.
And tomorrow too,even this small me
will love you.

Please don't embrace
my longing
secretly in your arms.
Because I'm fine the way I am.
