First appeared on Smiley Nation · 32nd single · 2011

のんびり行(い)こうねって
Didn't we promise
言(い)ってた筈(はず)じゃない
To take it slowly?
やっぱりもうそろそろ…なんて
But then you said, “It's probably about time…”
なんだか…なんだか…um-um-
I keep thinking… keep thinking… um-um-
 
 
毎日(まいにち)聞(き)いていたグールド残(のこ)して
Only the Gould I listen to every day is left
他(ほか)には何(なに)もない部屋(へや)
In a room with nothing else
君(きみ)はもういないんだなぁ
You're really gone now
 
 
ねぇただ苦(くる)しみだけが
Only pain
今(いま)よりもずっといい境地(ばしょ)へ連(つ)れてくれる
Can take us to a place far better than where we are now
 
 
空(そら)を舞(ま)うような自由(じゆう)なスタイル
A way of being free, as if dancing in the sky
憧(あこが)れた君(きみ)と Smiley Nation
I long for it with you—the smiling nation
隠(かく)された明日(あす)に迷(まよ)い込(こ)めば
If we lose our way in an unrevealed tomorrow
スリル感(かん)じてる
We can feel the thrill
 
 
ラ・タ・タ ララ 果(は)てぬ希望(きぼう)には
La-ta-ta lala, in endless hope
生(い)きてゆける力(ちから) Smiley Nation
There's strength to keep living—the smiling nation
走(はし)らせて気持(きも)ち 海(うみ)へ着(つ)けば
Let our feelings run; when we reach the sea
届(とど)きそうな日(ひ)
It will seem we can touch the sun
 
 
飛(と)んでく鳥(とり)にもね
Even birds in flight
目指(めざ)す場所(ばしょ)はあって
Have somewhere they want to go
それはもう本能(ほんのう)なわけで
That's already instinct
そうだなやっぱ DNA
Yes, it must be DNA
 
 
まっすぐ見(み)えた道(みち)も
Even a road that looks straight
緩(ゆる)いカーブ 丸(まる)い地球(ほし)の上(うえ)で
Bends gently on this round planet
 
 
何処(どこ)までも続(つづ)く宇宙(そら)だから
Because the universe is boundless
その先(さき)は見(み)えぬ Smiley Nation
We can't see what's ahead—the smiling nation
躊躇(ためら)いの中(なか)に秘(ひ)めた気持(きも)ち
The feelings hidden in our hesitation
見(み)つけ出(だ)しそう
Seem about to be found
 
 
ラ・タ・タ ララ 今日(きょう)も祈(いの)りには
La-ta-ta lala, today again, in prayer
やさしさを乗(の)せた Smiley Nation
We offer tenderness—the smiling nation
無傷(むきず)では辿(たど)り着(つ)けない場所(ばしょ)
There are places we can't reach without a scratch
感(かん)じられた日(ひ)
The day we come to understand that
 
 
遠(とお)い遠(とお)い陽(ひ) 今日(きょう)も届(とど)き
Faraway, faraway sunlight arrives here again today
照(て)らし出(だ)してく 地球(ちきゅう)は Blue
Lighting the earth, the planet all blue
slow で Pop 廻(めぐ)る
Turning slowly, lightly
 
 
空(そら)を舞(ま)うような自由(じゆう)なスタイル
A way of being free, as if dancing in the sky
憧(あこが)れた君(きみ)と Smiley Nation
I long for it with you—the smiling nation
隠(かく)された明日(あす)に迷(まよ)い込(こ)めば
If we lose our way in an unrevealed tomorrow
スリル感(かん)じてる
We can feel the thrill
 
 
ラ・タ・タ ララ 果(は)てぬ希望(きぼう)には
La-ta-ta lala, in endless hope
生(い)きてゆける力(ちから) Smiley Nation
There's strength to keep living—the smiling nation
走(はし)らせて気持(きも)ち 海(うみ)へ着(つ)けば
Let our feelings run; when we reach the sea
届(とど)きそうな日(ひ)
It will seem we can touch the sun
風(かぜ)は遥(はる)か上空(じょうくう)
The wind is high in the distant sky
