Dear you who are reading this letter: I wonder where you are and what you’re doing.十五の僕には誰にも話せない 悩みの種があるのです
15-year-old me has worries that I can’t talk to anyone else about.未来の自分に宛てて書く手紙なら
きっと素直に打ち明けられるだろう
If I write this letter to my future self, surely I will be able to honestly and openly express myself.今 負けそうで 泣きそうで 消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの?
ひとつしかないこの胸が何度もばらばらに割れて
苦しい中で今を生きている
今を生きている
Whose words should I believe now, when I’m on the edge of losing, on the brink of tears, and on the verge of disappearing? When this heart that I only have one of is constantly being broken to pieces? When I’m living through these difficult years?拝啓 ありがとう 十五のあなたに伝えたい事があるのです
Dear 15-year-old you, thank you for you letter. I have some things that I’d like to say to you.自分とは何でどこへ向かうべきか 問い続ければ見えてくる
If you keep asking yourself “in which direction should I head?” the answer will come to you荒れた青春の海は厳しいけれど
明日の岸辺へと 夢の舟よ進め
The rough seas of adolescence are harsh, but the ship of your dreams will continue to the riverbank of tomorrow今 負けないで 泣かないで 消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
大人の僕も傷ついて眠れない夜はあるけど
苦くて甘い今を生きている
And when you don’t want to lose, to cry, when you don’t want to disappear, believe in your own voice. And even the adult me has times when I get hurt, even has sleepless nights, but life is bittersweet.人生の全てに意味があるから 恐れずにあなたの夢を育てて
Keep on believing
There is meaning to the entirety of one’s life, so follow your dreams without unease; keep on believing.負けそうで 泣きそうで 消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの?
ああ 負けないで 泣かないで 消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
いつの時代も悲しみを避けては通れないけれど
笑顔を見せて 今を生きていこう
今を生きていこう
Whose words should I believe now, when I’m on the edge of losing, on the brink of tears, and on the verge of disappearing? When you don’t want to lose, to cry, when you don’t want to disappear, believe in your own voice. And whatever your age, sorrow can’t always be avoided, but I now try to live my life showing my smiling face.拝啓 この手紙読んでいるあなたが
幸せな事を願います

I wish good things for you.
I really love this song and the lyrics. Cannot stop crying when I watch videos of the choir performing and the students were crying.
