誕生 - English translation
While fearing, while hating, we eventually learn what love is.
Just like a child born crying,
You are crying now to live once again.
Remember. Everyone must have been told the moment they were born.
Listen closely and recall the very first "Welcome" you heard.
Remember that you were born.
Remember that we met.
Remember that we lived together.
And. remember that you remember.
Time flows on, leaving no moment to look back,
And the places I long to return to vanish one by one.
Each time I lose someone I wanted to lean on,
I become someone who wants to protect others.
Counting the seasons that drift away,
Counting the lives that depart.
While praying, while grieving, we have known love all along.
Everyone holds one unforgettable word;
Even if it is "Goodbye," it carries the meaning of "I love you."
Remember. Everyone must have been told the moment they were born.
Listen closely and recall the very first "Welcome" you heard.
Remember. But if you cannot recall it,
I will tell you, again and again:
Welcome. Thank you for being born.
Remember that you were born.
Remember that we met.
Remember that we lived together.
And. remember that you remember.
