Hikari no Kisetsu

Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Nihongo[edit | edit source]

忘れかけたことを　なつかしく受けとめる
サビついた心のカギを開けて

まぶしすぎる道も　過ぎた日々も未来も
２人出会った道で　今夜結ばれる

夢の先の道は　誰にもけがさせないから
風の誘う声に　耳を澄ます

誰のせいでもなく　光の季節の恋して
太陽がてらすように　愛がつつむ

夢の先に歩いて行こう

Romaji[edit | edit source]

Wasurekaketa koto wo natsukashiku uketomeru
Sabi tsuita kokoro no kagi wo akete

Mabushi sugiru michi mo sugita hibi mo mirai mo
Futari deatta michi de kon'ya musuba reru

Yume no saki no michi wa darenimo kegasa senaikara
Kaze no izanau koe ni mimiwosumasu

Dare no seide mo naku hikari no kisetsu no koishite
Taiyou ga terasu you ni ai ga tsutsumu

Yume no saki ni aruite ikou

English Translation[edit | edit source]

Remembering the nostalgic things that you've forgotten 
The key that opens my rusty heart

The road, passing days, and also the future are far too bright
Two people who met along the way are joined tonight

I won't let anyone ruin the road ahead to my dreams
Listening carefully to the calling voice of the wind

Falling in love in the season of light is nobody's fault
Being wrapped in love is like the shining sun

Let's walk ahead towards that dream

Long Version[edit | edit source]

ほほえみを　たやさぬ　強さのウラガワで
こわれそうな　あなたの心の色

気付かない明日の悲しみを嘆くより
星空にヒトミをとき放して

夢の中の景色　かすんで行く思い出に
さよなら言えるとき　光灯る

忘れかけていたことを　なつかしく受けとめる
サビついた心のカギを開けて

まぶしすぎる道も　過ぎた日々も未来も
２人出会った道で　今夜（いま）結ばれる

♯夢の先の道は　誰にもけがせないから
♯風の誘う声に　耳を澄ます

♯誰のせいでもなく　光の季節に恋して
♯太陽がてらすように　愛がつつむ

♯夢の先へ歩いて行こう

♯repeat

Long Romaji[edit | edit source]

Hohoemi wo tayasanu tsuyosa no uragawa de
Koware souna anata no kokoro no iro

Kidzukanai ashita no kanashimi wo nageku yori
Hoshizora ni hitomi wo toki hanashite

Yume no naka no keshiki kasunde iku omoide ni
Sayonara ieru toki hikari tomoru

Wasurekakete ita koto wo natsukashiku uketomeru
Sabi tsuita kokoro no kagi wo akete

Mabushi sugiru michi mo sugita hibi mo mirai mo
Futari deatta michi de konya (ima) musuba reru

♯Yume no saki no michi wa darenimo kegasenaikara
♯Kaze no izanau koe ni mimiwosumasu

♯No seide mo naku hikari no kisetsu ni koishite
♯Taiyou ga terasu you ni ai ga tsutsumu

♯Yume no saki he aruite ikou

♯repeat

Long English Translation[edit | edit source]

A strong smile to keep you going to the other side
The colors of your heart seem to be broken

Rather than lament over tomorrow's sadness, I don't notice grief 
Set your eyes free to the starry sky

Dreams of memories are in hazy scenery
I'll say goodbye when the light is lit

Remembering the nostalgic things that you've forgotten 
The key that opens my rusty heart

The road, passing days, and also the future are far too bright
Two people who met along the way are (now) joined tonight

♯I won't let anyone ruin the road ahead to my dreams
♯Listening carefully to the calling voice of the wind

♯Falling in love in the season of light is nobody's fault
♯Being wrapped in love is like the shining sun

♯Let's walk ahead towards that dream

♯repeat

A sweet song with a mellow feel.

Song Production Information[edit | edit source]

This has the melody and vocals of a trendy R&B song but, as the title suggests, it's a gentle melody reminiscent of the spring sunshine filtering through impressive foliage.
It's also a favorite song of mine. ANNA is a talented singer of mystery that even I don't really know the identity of.
