5. Taiyou

Under the blue surface of the sky, the warmth I savored, friends around me
The sounds I love most, I had fun, assembling our voices we screamed to the other side
So, shaking our bodies
On top of the earth, we forgot about time and frolicked, this is our summer

I want to always keep singing like this
under the sun, our never-ending song
The sun’s light will always illuminate us not matter where we are
So have courage and tomorrow will be alright too

My body trembled in the intense cold, the way I was proceeding is also erased by whiteness
My anxiety continued just like snow that’s piling up, I yelled strongly so it wasn’t buried
Your smiling face by my side
That’s what melted my cooling heart, almost like a sunlight filtering through the trees of winter

I want to always keep singing like this
under the sun, so that our flame doesn’t go out
The sun’s light will always illuminate us not matter where we are
So have courage and tomorrow will be alright too

The sun rises in the east and shines
Sometimes it’s like it wraps us up, sometimes it’s like it leads us to the future
The sunlight is poured into my mind
It always puts hope in my chest

You who were there as my left side neighbor,
My mother and father who brought me up
And my comrades gave me strength, all my encounters up till now have been connected
The sun overflowing with hope and kindness
I feel the love in the light and warmth
I’m not alone, I’m not afraid
Stick out your chest and start walking

I want to always keep singing like this
under the sun, our never-ending song
The sun’s light will always illuminate us not matter where we are
So have courage and tomorrow will be alright too

Your good smile is always shining in the sky!
