暗がりの道 何もいらない
どこまでも歩いていける気がね してた
最期に刻む ピリオドの夢
捧げる想い 最期の詩 君へと
kurogari no michi nani mo iranai
doko made mo aruite ikeru ki ga ne shiteta
saigo ni kizamu piriodo no yume
sasageru omoi saigo no uta kimi e to
The path is dark, I don’t need a thing
I felt that I could go and walk on as far as I wanted
The dream of the period that marks my final moments,
the feelings I offer, the poem of my final moments, it’s all for you
旅立ちを告げる鐘の音が響く
とまどいながら 彷徨いながら
喪失の果てに 何か残せるなら
終わらせること 受け入れられる
tabidachi o tsugeru kane no oto ga hibiku
tomadoinagara samayoinagara
soushitsu no hate ni nani ka nokoseru nara
owaraseru koto uke irerareru
The bells signalling the beginning of a journey ring
while I’m left bewildered, while I wander about
If I can leave something to remain at the end of loss
I’ll be able to accept ending
さよならの先で また会いましょう
さよならの果てでまた会いましょう
sayonara no saki de mata aimashou
sayonara no hate de mata aimashou
After the goodbye, let’s meet again
At the end of the goodbye, let’s meet again
懐かしい詩 誰も知らない
いつも聴いていられる気がね してた
夜空に刻む ピリオドの星
捧げる旋律 最期の詩 君へと
natsukashii uta dare mo shiranai
itsu mo kiiteirareru ki ga ne shiteta
yozora ni kizamu piriodo no hoshi
sasageru melody saigo no uta kimi e to
It’s a nostalgic poem which nobody knows
I felt I could go on listening to it forever
The stars of the period which carve into the night sky
the melody I offer, the poem of my final moments, it’s all for you
始まりを告げる鳥の声が響く
足りない物は 無いはずなのに
喪失の果てに 何か待っているなら
目隠しをして 微笑みかけて
hakimari o tsugeru tori no koe ga hibiku
tarinai mono wa nai hazu nanoni
soushitsu no hate ni nani ka matteiru nara
mekakushi o shite hohoemi kakete
The voices of the birds signalling the beginning rings
There shouldn’t be anything that’s lacking though
If there’s something waiting at the end of loss
I’ll wear a blindfold and put on a smile
さよならの先で また会いましょう
さよならの果てでまた会いましょう
sayonara no saki de mata aimashou
sayonara no hate de mata aimashou
After the goodbye, let’s meet again
At the end of the goodbye, let’s meet again
僕を包み込んでくれたものは
幻だった 陽炎だった
また 出会えるなら 喜んで描くから
ピリオドの夢 ピリオドの詩
boku o tsutsumi konde kureta mono wa
maboroshi datta kagerou datta
mata de aeru nara yorokonde kaku kara
periodo no yume piriodo no uta
The things that wrapped me up were
just illusions, just mirages
If we can meet again, I’ll gladly draw them after all
The dream of the period, the poem of the period
さよならの先で また会いましょう
さよならの果てでまた会いましょう
sayonara no saki de mata aimashou
sayonara no hate de mata aimashou
After the goodbye, let’s meet again
At the end of the goodbye, let’s meet again
Amen
