English Translation

If you close your eyes, I'm sure you'll remember

the moment your life awakened

A song of blessing

echoed through the world,

gently leading

to the brilliant light.

Don't fake the smile you gave to others. [2]

Sincerely

and embrace each other with a definite warmth,

instead of with the sorrow engraved on our hearts.

If you close your eyes, I'm sure...
