Kanji:

だって　顔を上げたら

みんなが微笑んでいて

恥ずかしくて　嬉しくて　横向く星空

あれから毎日が(まいにちが)　ダメって思ってた

いま少し　ほんの少し　自分に聞いてみたんだ

「飛べるかなぁ?」

"そら"で逢おう

わたしたちはいつでも　ゆける

風が星を蒔いて　ひかりが躍る彼方

"つかまえなきゃ"

その手をのばした瞬間に　ひろがる風景は

キラリ　いつかのafter school

だって　生まれた理由(わけ)を

誰もが知らないままで

存在を確かめる　魔法を探すの

ぜいたくな自由を(じーゆうを)

持てあます日々だけど

見つけたい　たったひとつ　自分だけにできること

「だいじょうぶっ!」

"そら"で逢おう

足りないのなら　すぐにゆこう

星のシール貼って　スピードアップ決めて

"だきしめたい"

間に合わないなんてないよ　キミとの約束は

ずっと　消えないafter school

放課後の特別に　ずっと守られてたいけど

曖昧の針が刻(トキ)を告げる

さあ帰ろう　巡り逢うために

また、いつか…

"そら"で逢おう

わたしたちはどこでも　ゆける

風が星を蒔いて　ひかりが躍る彼方

"つかまえなきゃ"

その手をのばした瞬間に　ひろがる風景は

キラリ　いつかのafter school


English:

You see, when I raise my head,

Everyone is there, smiling.

I feel embarrassed and happy all at once, and the starry sky turns on its side.

The everyday life since then (Everyday life…) used to seen wrong to me.

Now, a little bit, just a little, I’ve started wondering to myself,

“Could I fly?”

Let’s meet in the “sky”.

We can get there anytime.

The wind scatters stars all over, and the lights dance, out there in the beyond.

“I need to catch it…”

The moment when my hand reached out, the landscape all around me was

Twinkling, someday’s after school…

You see, all people just go on living,

Never knowing why they were born.

I’m looking for a magic spell to confirm that I exist.

The luxury of freedom (Of freedom…) is so much to handle, all these days,

But I want to find the one thing that only I can do.

“I’ll be okay!”

Let’s meet in the “sky”.

If that’s not enough, we can go right now.

Put on a heart sticker and speed up.

“I want to hug you.”

You can make it; it’s never too late. The promise I made with you

Will never disappear, after school…

I’d like to stay here forever, protected by this special time after school,

But the ticking hand of uncertainty tells us the time.

Now, let’s go home, so that we can meet

Again, someday…

Let’s meet in the “sky”.

We can go anywhere.

The wind scatters stars all over, and the lights dance, out there in the beyond.

“I need to catch it…”

The moment when my hand reached out, the landscape all around me was

Twinkling, someday’s after school…
