Hana ha Saku ~Anime Star Version~

Standard

Lyrics: Iwai Shunji
Composer: Kanno Youko

On the pure-white snow path, I smell the spring breeze
I become nostalgic
as I remember that town

There were dreams I wanted to fulfill
There was a me that I wanted to change
Now I am just nostalgic
as I remember that person

I can hear someone’s song
encouraging someone
I can see someone’s smile
on the other side of sadness

Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
for the you that will be born one day
Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
I wonder what I left behind

The presence of a morning on the other side of the night sky
I become nostalgic
I remember those days

Hurting, getting hurt
crying for not being rewarded
Now I just remember
those precious people

I can see someone’s feelings
being bound to someone
I can see someone’s future
on the other side of sadness

Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
for the you that will be born one day
Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
I wonder what I left behind
Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
for the you that will be born one day
Flowers, flowers, flowers will bloom
for the you that will fall in love one day

For the you that will be born one day
flowers will bloom

For the you that will fall in love one day
flowers will bloom

For the you that will fall in love one day

Starting Now!

Standard

Lyrics: Mizuki Nana
Composition: Fujita Takuya

11. Starting Now!

If there was just one wish I could fulfill (1, 2, 3, go!)
then I would involve the whole world and experience love we can all laugh about (get ready for a happy time)

Things like destiny are full of blank spaces
Let’s beat down the universal! (now’s your chance)

Starting now! Starting now!!
A declaration of reclamation
Starting now! Starting now!!
You’re noticing it, right?
Only the ones who’ve known their full power have a dream they can touch

If there is just one thing you can be proud of
you should be able to wipe even the whole world’s tears (stand up to the victory)

The probability of success, no matter how much you estimate it
It doesn’t have a meaning with abstract theory (give it a shot)

Jumping up! Jumping up!!
Even if it’s sink-or-swim
Jumping up! Jumping up!!
Passion doesn’t betray you
just the part of the clenching pain, the future will be reborn

Even if God is being fickle
or there is an unreasonable hustle and bustle
We don’t have time for dodging it
If what’s right in front of you is a challenge, let’s be happy and partner up
Bring it on!

Starting now! Starting now!!
A declaration of reclamation
Starting now! Starting now!!
Feel it in your whole body
Only the ones who have believed in themselves have a dream they can hold in their hands

Jumping up! Jumping up!!
Jumping up! Jumping up!!
The ones able to create a tomorrow is not just anyone, it’s us!
