English translation:

why do you look up at the sky
everytime you stop somewhere?
the sorrow you can’t tell anyone
can be spoken through your heart

if you look back at the
long road you walked here on
you’ll be shown a shining day
brighter than in my memories

no matter when,
always by my side
you shared your laughter
during all the time we’ve spent
something felt missing…
but, what i noticed was
“love really is everything”

please don’t ask me
“are you happy?”
my dear
hold me in your arms
i want to hear it
are You happy?
the unending street is unpredictable
person sending me off
please dry your tears
with my back turned
and on my own
i cross over the river now

after i’ve gone
look up at the sky sometimes

i’m always watching over you
from someplace near the sun

even though your image
can’t be seen
i can still feel you
and if i close my eyes
your dear warmth
envelops my loneliness
shining on me rays of the sun

i remember
how much i loved you
my treasured one
leaving you behind
was heart breaking
i want to go back to before
the love i have is for ever
please don’t forget
you are never alone
we may be separated
but in your heart
i am still alive

please don’t ask me
“are you happy?”
my dear
hold me in your arms
i want to hear it
are You happy?
the unending street is unpredictable
sending me off
please dry your tears
with my back turned
and on my own
i cross over the river now

i don’t regret anything
i’m happy to have been born
from my heart, I Thank You.
