Nani kara hanase ba ii?

subete no koto ga kirakira shiteta

hitomi ni ukabu namida no sei janakute
sugisatta tsukihi ga kagayaiteru kara

watashi ga aruita michi wa machigatte nakatta
shizuka ni kurete iku sora ima nara sō ieru

Japanese Kanji 歌詞
何から話せばいい？
今日までの道のりは短くなかった

楽しいことばかりじゃなくて
悲しいことだっていっぱいあった

だけどそっと振り返ったら

すべてのことがきらきらしてた

瞳に浮かぶ涙のせいじゃなくて
過ぎ去った月日が輝いてるから

私が歩いた道は間違ってなかった
静かに暮れて行く空　今ならそう言える

もし道に迷った その時は

もし愛を失った その時は

大きな声でみんなの名前を呼べばいい

どこにいたって私たちは駆けつけるよ

瞳に浮かぶ涙のせいじゃなくて
過ぎ去った月日が輝いてるから

やがて消えてくものは　すべてを許して
やっと素直になれるね

ありがとうと言える

Translation
Where should I begin the story?
The journey here wasn't a short one
It wasn't all fun times
There were plenty of sad times too

But when I look back
All of it is sparkling

The tears welling in my eyes aren't at fault
It's because the time that has passed is so brilliant
The path I walked wasn't wrong
Now that the sky is quietly growing dark, I can say that

It's fine to stay silent
Because we understand the loneliness of holding it in
We've been the ones closest to you
Always watching you do your best

At least at the end, without feigning strength
It's okay to cry in front of us

Go ahead and shed the tears you've stored up in your heart
Leave that burden behind, for the sake of your future…
Your footprints are still brilliant
They will act as encouragement for those who will follow

The times when you may lose your way
The times when love may forsake you
In a loud voice, call our names
No matter where we are, we'll run to you

The tears welling in my eyes aren't at fault
It's because the time that has passed is so brilliant
The path I walked wasn't wrong
Now that the sky is quietly growing dark, I can say that

The tears welling in my eyes aren't at fault
Because they've become memories, they're blurring into rainbows
Letting go of all the things that will soon disappear
Finally able to be honest, I can say "thank you"
