Kanji:

夜更けを待ちわびる鳥が 瞼を開いた時

ためらいながら見上げる空に 翼を広げて

モノクロな世界の中 刻まれた運命に

立ち向かう瞳は きっと闇さえ

切り裂くのだろう 確かに

君の唇が 君の指先が

そっと足元へ照らすよ

夜明けへ導く光

君が愛しくて 君が愛しくて

立ち竦んでしまうよ

生まれたてのこの愛を

抱きしめて

睫の先に広がる 色のない存在に

覚醒を決めた想いがそっと 伝わりゆく鼓動

モノクロの糸に絡まる その先の運命に

疲れたなら いつでもここで

すべてを忘れて おやすみ

君の足跡に 君の傷口に

やさしい影がおちるよ

怖がる事はないから

こんなに切ない こんなに苦しい

"愛"というものの為に

どんな事からも君を

救い出すから

君の微笑みが 君の眼差しが

消えてしまわぬように

この手で守ってゆくよ

君が恋しくて 君が恋しくて

余計孤独になるよ

静かに溢れる想い

抱きしめて

English:

A bird, tired of waiting for the morning, opened its eyes

It haltingly raises its eyes to the sky and spreads its wings

Our fate is carved in this monochrome world

Without fail, even the darkness that oppresses my eyes

Will be cut away... Surely.

Your lips... your fingertips...

And your footsteps softly shine,

A light leading to the morning.

Because you're so dear to me, because you're my beloved,

I am completely petrified.

This love that was born...

I will embrace it.

A colourless existence spreads before the tips of my eyelashes.

I prepared myself, and my feelings are spoken through soft heartbeats,

Entwining monochrome threads into the fate that lies ahead.

If you're tired, I will always be here.

You can forget everything... and rest.*

Your footprints... your wounds...

Gentle shadows fall into them

Because there's nothing we fear.

It's painful, and it's difficult, but

For the sake of a thing called "love"

No matter what, I will

Free you.

Your smile... your gaze...

So that they don't fade away,

I will protect you.

I love you... I long for you.

This unnecessary loneliness becomes

Feelings that quietly overflow...

I will embrace them.
