bokura wa minna ikite iru We're all alive, every last one of us,
ikite iru kara kanashii n' da and we can feel sad 'cause we're alive!
tenohira wo taiyou When we hold our hands up to the sun...
ni sukashite mireba ...and peek through our fingers,
makka ni nagareru boku no chishio we can see the deep red blood flowing inside!
mimizu datte okera datte amenbo datte Even earthworms, even crickets, and even water striders!
minna minna ikite iru n' da We're all alive, every last one of us,
tomodachi nan da and we're all friends!
bokura wa minna ikite iru We're all alive, every last one of us,
ikite iru kara warau n' da and we can laugh 'cause we're alive!
bokura wa minna ikite iru We're all alive, every last one of us,
ikite iru kara ureshii n' da and we can feel happy 'cause we're alive!
tenohira wo taiyou ni When we hold our hands up to the sun...
sukashite mireba ...and peek through our fingers,
makka ni nagareru boku no chishio we can see the deep red blood flowing inside!
donbo datte kaeru datte mitsubachi datte Even dragonflies, even frogs, and even honey bees!
minna minna ikite iru n' da tomodachi We're all alive, every last one of us, and we're all...
Penetrate in whispers...
In shadows rise to surface...
In someone's mind...
Echoes that dwell...
Echoes that dwell!
Blameless sorrow...
Hollow hush of trees...
Roots are deeply intertwined...
Penetrate in whispers...
In shadows rise to surface...
In someone's sigh...
Segments that yell!
Silence is crying, is crying...
Open doors and empty glasses,
Christmas in the Silent Forest...
The limp ticking of the hand...
