English Title: GIVE ME FIVE! Performance by: AKB48 Lyrics by: Akimoto Yasushi Composition/Arrangement: TBA English Lyrics The song of the cherry blossom flows through the town In the blink of an eye Separation day has come In the corner of the school building Everyone is secretly Writing messages together I’ve already taken off my school uniform Amidst the winds of spring Before long, every flower will fall But will dream anew Friends, from our memories Believe in a shining tomorrow That’s right, graduation Is not an exit, but an entrance Friends, the only thing left Is to continue on our separate paths But don’t say goodbye Because we’ll meet again soon So let’s high five for now Even looking through all the pictures we took Everything dear to us Can’t be left behind We’ve fought sometimes had mean thoughts But for some reason We still had our arms around each other Nobody has gone home yet So the classroom seems narrow But before our parting hour Lies our future Tears, let them fall We’ll be born again So let’s cry all we can That’s right, other painful things Are still to come So let’s cry now Tears, if we show each other Our tear-streaked faces We’ll be able to share anything We’re best friends for life I’ll always remember, so let’s high five Friends, from our memories Believe in a shining tomorrow That’s right, graduation Is not an exit, but an entrance Friends, getting to meet you Was the best part of my youth Every “thank you” that I’ve yet to say Is in this high five… Romaji sakura no uta ga machi ni nagare attoiuma datta wakare no hi kousha no kabe no sono katasumi minna de kossori yosegaki shita seifuku wa mou nugunda haru no kaze ni fukarenagara donna hana mo yagate wa chitte atarashii yume wo miru tomo yo, omoide yori kagayaiteru asu wo shinjiyou sou, sotsugyou to wa deguchi janaku iriguchi daro tomo yo, sorezore no michi susumu dake da sayonara wo iu na mata sugu ni aeru dakara ima wa haitacchi shiyou nanmai shashin wo totte mitemo daiji datta mono wa nokosenai kenka shite kuchi kiitenakatta aitsu to nazeka kata wo kundeta mada daremo kaeranakute kyoushitsu ga semaku mieru yo nagorioshii jikan no saki ni bokura no mirai ga aru namida, koraeru yori umarete kara ichiban naite miyou sou, tsurai koto wa mada mada aru naite okou ze namida, gushagusha no kao miseattara nandemo hanaseru ne isshou no shinyuu da wasureru na yo haitacchi shiyou tomo yo, omoide yori kagayaiteru asu wo shinjiyou sou, sotsugyou to wa deguchi janaku iriguchi daro tomo yo, meguriaete saikou datta seishun no hibi ni mada ienakatta arigatou wo haitacchi de… Kanji 桜の歌が街に流れ あっという間だった 別れの日 校舎の壁のその片隅 みんなでこっそり 寄せ書きした 制服はもう脱ぐんだ 春の風に吹かれながら どんな花もやがては散って 新しい夢を見る 友よ、思い出より 輝いている明日を信じよう そう、卒業とは 出口じゃなく入り口だろ 友よ、それぞれの道 進むだけだ サヨナラを言うな またすぐに会える だから今はハイタッチしよう 何枚写真を撮ってみても 大事だったものは 残せない 喧嘩して口利いてなかった アイツと何故か 肩を組んでた まだ誰も帰らなくて 教室が狭く見えるよ 名残惜しい時間の先に 僕らの未来がある 涙、こらえるより 生まれてから 一番泣いてみよう そう、辛いことは まだまだある 泣いておこうぜ 涙、グシャグシャの顔 見せ合ったら何でも 話せるね 一生の親友だ 忘れるなよハイタッチしよう 友よ、思い出より 輝いている明日を信じよう そう、卒業とは 出口じゃなく入り口だろ 友よ、巡り会えて 最高だった青春の日々に まだ言えなかった ありがとうをハイタッチで…

Overcome with joy at this melody’s first cry of life Dawn heads for dusk in our little everyday life Don’t you dare tell lies in front of the one you hold dear You can’t just brake as you please Let’s go forth on this trackless path, with the sounds we play as our map The beat as a vow engraved in our hearts Yes, We Go! Yes, We Play! Sweat bleeds from our brows and our fingers Into what colors, what kind of rainbow will it become? We pass by and collide with a rhythm that both races and slows This is the one and only stage in our entire lives Don’t you dare tell lies when you’ve been taught with a smile There’s no such limit to courage Let’s sing even if it’s a song with no name, with the dreams we’ve painted as our wings Communicating wordlessly as our eyes meet Yes, We Fly! Yes, We Sing! This moment, this second may come to an end without stopping But as the end continues, so will new beginnings Just believe in the future Let’s go forth on this trackless path, for the path lies within our every step The beat is a vow engraved in our hearts Yes, We Go! Yes, We Fly! Yes, We Play! Forever and always…Yes, We are Singing NOW!

The sunshine’s a big, golden spotlight My heart’s got a feeling something good’s on the way How big is the heart? (I want to know!) What shape will I find there? (Circle, cross, square???) I don’t know, but it’s a place (A warm place) where I’ll find “love” (Exactly!) So let’s set out on a hunt for number one (Let’s go!) Is it school, a sound, a song, tea, snacks? Even the hundredth “number one” will still be the best My heart’s full, my tummy’s full (Bliss!) to satisfaction…and we’ll all smile together There isn’t just one “number one” Goodnight, goodbye! The starry sky’s an indigo blanket But there’s a little trace of hurt in my heart Yesterday’s scabs (Whatever hurts) will disappear before you know it (Abracadabra!) A brand new beginning is endless (It’s on the way!), that’s why! (Come on!) Let’s keep on embracing “number one” with all our might! (Squeeze!) People, dogs, the wind, flowers, a path Even the thousandth “number one” will still be the best With hearts full, let’s hear it for dreams! (Do your best!) Chase them and you’ll be fine even if you stumble and fall (Keep on Keep on Singing Songs) (Keep on Keep on) When you think of “the best,” you’ve got to feel “this moment” and “now” We were all born, right!? Have some heart!! “NUMBER ONE” is always No.1 We are all No.1 (Hey there!) Give it all you’ve got to reach the fun! Even the ten billionth “number one” will be a treasure We’ll go out and discover, and love (Believe it!), then embrace and part ways Ah, (See you, Good-bye!) but we’ll meet again (Hello!) in this cycle of bliss Nothing can ever take the place of any “number one” My heart’s full, my tummy’s full (Thanks!) to satisfaction…and we’ll all smile together The power of “number one” is infinite And there isn’t just one “number one” Romaji ohayou pikapika asahi zenshin ni kiniro supottoraito ufuufu haato no atari ii koto arisou na yokan kokoro nan-senchi?

Crying isn’t painful, it’s love’s SWEET DROPS. Boys can be pretty strong. But sometimes they can be pretty weak. When you’re with me, I’m HAPPY. I want to keep dreaming forever. I want to become more gentle. If you’re with me, I’ll be HAPPY. Girls can be pretty strong. But sometimes they can be pretty weak. Our wish is to be HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! Those days are HAPPY.

English Title: The Wind is Blowing Performance by: AKB48 Lyrics/Composition: Akimoto Yasushi Arrangement: Akimoto Yasushi English Lyrics In the void of this transformed earth I’m at a loss for words, frozen in place Before, was it better to hold hands? A light shines through despair If there’s a god somewhere Please grant us once more A new world on this earth And yet the wind blows towards the future Feel the breath of life upon your cheeks And yet I’m still living strongly From the point of laying the very first brick Shall we begin? The wounds from my memories are scabbing over Kindness is born from pain Before, was it better to be held? To talk about your dreams within the warmth I want to carry only as many burdens As tears that have fallen Onlookers can’t do anything And yet love continues into the future People request to meet one another And yet I take one step forward Picking up all the forgotten wishes Shall we begin? And yet the wind blows towards the future If you close your eyes, you’ll feel it I’m certain the wind blows towards the future Even if you part with everything and are at a loss I promise that I’ll be right here Clear the rubble blocking your path Live in the moment Even if the wind happens to stop The world cannot exist without it Keep your breath no matter what happens Although today might be a painful day Shall we begin with the things we can do?

What on earth did he witness? What happened between that couple glaring at each other in the crowd? What on earth happened? What was the real reason why the teacher yelled at me that one day? What on earth did I do? Who is this person in front of me, smiling and shaking my hand? Where am I now? What am I doing? I think I know the truth about everything, but I don’t Even if that’s true, I have to keep on living somehow I can’t just pretend to know But then again, there’s not really much I want to know The only thing that’s certain is how I feel “I love you” What was on top of that pasta I ate that one day? What on earth did I eat? What’s waiting for us at the end of the war we’ve been fighting for so long? And is there anything I can do? I think I know the truth about everything, but it’s impossible to know Even if that’s true, I have to keep walking somehow I don’t need all these doubts But there’s not much I believe in The only thing that’s certain is this moment “Who do you love?” Somewhere in this world there’s something that we want to find That we’d even go as far as to raise our voices, to give our lives No matter what, our lives are about trial and error, hurting and comforting each other Why are people yelling at each other on TV? What on earth happened? What would my slightly distant friend say if I called right now? And what would I say? When I changed the channel on TV, what was so weird as to cause the people to laugh weirdly? What are we afraid of? What feelings were you hiding in the kiss you gave me that time? Where are you now? What are you doing? I think I know the truth about everything, but it’s impossible to know Even if that’s true, I have to do all I can to find a way to keep living I don’t need all these doubts But there’s not much I believe in The only thing that’s certain is how I feel I can hear your voice, and that’s what I believe in The only thing that’s certain is this moment “I love you” Romaji kaidan no katasumi ni suwari uzukumaru ano hito ni nani ga attan darou? ittai nani wo mitekitan darou? hitogomi no naka de niramiau danjo no aida ni nani ga okotta no? ittai donna jijou ga attan darou? itsuka boku wo yobidashita sensei ga donatteta sono shini wa donna dattarou? ittai boku wa nani wo shitan darou? me no mae de manmen no emi wo ukabete akushu shiteru kono hito wa dare darou? boku wa ima doko de nani wo shiten darou? koto no shinsou wa nanimo wakatteru you de wakaranai sore demo dounika ikite ikanakucha naranai shittakaburi nante dekinai demo shiritai koto mo amari nai vtada hitotsu tashika na no wa boku no kimochi “kimi ga suki” itsuka tabeta pasuta no ue ni nokatteta guzai wa nan dattan darou? ittai boku wa nani wo tabetan darou? itsukara ka tsudzuiteru sensou no hate ni donna koto ga matteirun darou? soshite boku ni nani ga dekirun darou? koto no shinsou wa nanimo shitteiru you de shirienai soredemo dounika aruite ikanakucha naranai utagatte bakari iranai demo shinjireru mono mo sukunai tada hitotsu tashika na no wa ima kono toki “dare ga suki?” sono koe wo karashite made sono inochi kezurashite made mitsuke dashitai mono ga mada kono yo no dokka ni ate sore ga nandeare shikousakugo shi kizutsuke iyashi au bokura no kyou terebi no naka de donari atteiru ano hitotachi ni nani ga atta no? ittai donna jijou ga attan darou? sukoshi kimazuku natteita tomodachi ni ima denwa shitara nani wo iwareru darou? soshite boku wa nante iun darou? channeru wo kaetara bukimi ni warau hitotachi nani ga okashiin darou? bokura wa nani wo kowagatteirun darou? ano toki kimi ga kureta kiss ni wa donna omoi ga kakusareteita no? ima kimi wa doko de nani wo shiten darou? koto no shinsou wa nanimo shitteiru you de shirienai soredemo dounika kounika ikite ikanakya naranai utagatte bakari iranai demo shinjireru mono mo sukunai tada hitotsu tashika na no wa boku no kimochi kimi no sono koe kikashite yo shinjireru mono ga soko ni aru yo tada hitotsu tashika na no wa ima kono toki “kimi ga suki” Kanji 階段の片隅に座りうずくまるあの人に何があったんだろう? 一体何を見て来たんだろう? 人混みの中で睨み合う男女の間に何が起こったの? 一体どんな事情があったんだろう? いつか僕を呼び出した先生が怒鳴ってたその真意はどんなだったろう? 一体僕は何をしたんだろう? 目の前で満面の笑みを浮かべて握手してるこの人は誰だろう? 僕は今どこで何をしてんだろう? ことの真相は何も分かってるようで分からない それでもどうにか生きていかなくちゃならない 知ったかぶりなんて出来ない でも知りたいこともあまりない ただ一つ確かなのは僕の気持ち 「君が好き」 いつか食べたパスタの上にのっかってた具材は何だったんだろう? 一体僕は何を食べたんだろう? いつからか続いてる戦争の果てにどんなことが待っているんだろう? そして僕に何が出来るんだろう? ことの真相は何も知っているようで知り得ない それでもどうにか歩いていかなくちゃならない 疑ってばかりいられない でも信じれるものも少ない ただ一つ確かなのは今このとき 「誰が好き?」 その声をからしてまで その命削らしてまで 見つけ出したいものがまだこの世のどっかにあって それが何であれ試行錯誤し傷つけ癒しあう僕らの今日 テレビの中で怒鳴り合っているあの人たちに何があったの? 一体どんな事情があったんだろう? 少し気まずくなっていた友達に今電話したら何を言われるだろう? そして僕は何て言うんだろう? チャンネルを変えたら不気味に笑う人たち何が可笑しいんだろう? 僕らは何を怖がっているんだろう? あのとき君がくれたkissにはどんな想いが隠されていたの? 今君はどこで何をしてんだろう? ことの真相は何も知っているようで知り得ない それでもどうにかこうにか生きていかなきゃならない 疑ってばかりいられない でも信じれるものも少ない ただ一つ確かなのは僕の気持ち 君のその声聞かしてよ 信じれるものがそこにあるよ ただ一つ確かなのは今このとき 「君が好き」

English Title: Everyday, Hairband Performance by: AKB48 Lyrics by: Akimoto Yasushi Composition/Arrangement: Inoue Yoshimasa English Lyrics When the sun begins to shine More radiant than yesterday I’ll change immediately Into my white t-shirt And invite you along The bus that I’m taking On the highway by the coast Still has some empty seats The sea breeze passes by I’m further ahead than anybody In my search for the summer Looking at the same scenery I hold you close to my heart Our friendship will stay just like this No matter how many years go by As you take off your hairband You unexpectedly look over at me Just seeing you smile amidst the wind I’m somehow at a loss for words But even if I feel this way... As you take off your hairband Your long hair is set free Before I knew it, you’ve become an adult To the point that you’re out of my reach But I’m more and more in love... The sandy beach Is just like you I can’t just stroll around as I please Every time we run away From the approaching waves Our footprints are erased I don’t have any desire For things that are certain As long as we return to this beach next year I’ve been in love for a long time With you in your hairband From when met in the same class Until this beautiful day So many seasons have passed Nobody even comes close To you in your hairband In the whole world, that halo in your hair suits you the best Don’t ever take it off I love you But I can’t put it into words I love you These are my true feelings I love you It’s like I’ve given you a tan Love, definitely, is something that will be realized someday Romaji taiyou ga kinou yori mabushiku teritsuke hajimetara masshiro na Tshatsu ni imasugu kigaete kimi wo sasoitai umizoi no kokudou wo mada mada suiteteru basu ni nori shiokaze wo oikakete dare yori mo hayaku natsu wo sagasu nda kokoro no tonari de onaji keshiki minagara nannenkan mo bokutachi wa tomodachi no mama sa kachuusha hazushinagara kimi ga fui ni furikaette kaze no naka de hohoenda dake de nazeka nanimo ienaku naru yo konna omotteiru no ni... kachuusha hazushinagara nagai kami wo hodoku you ni itsunomanika otona ni natte boku no te ni wa todokanai kurai motto suki ni naru yo... sunahama wa kimi ni nite omoidoori ni arukenai yo yoseru nami yokeru tabi futari no ashiato kesarete shimatta tashika na koto nado nanimo hoshiku wa nai yo futari ga kitto rainen mo umi ni koraretara kachuusha shiteru kimi ni boku wa nagai renai chuu onaji kurasu deatta hi kara kirei ni natta kyou made zutto kisetsu nando meguttemo kachuusha shiteru kimi ni daremokaremo kanawanai yo sekai chuu de ichiban niau kami wo tometa tenshi no wakka towa ni kawaranaide kimi ga suki da kotoba ni dekinai yo kimi ga suki da honto kono kimochi kimi ga suki da komugiiro ni yakeru you ni koi wa kitto itsuka kidzuku mono da Kanji 太陽が昨日より眩しく 照りつけ始めたら 真っ白なＴシャツに 今すぐ着替えて 君を誘いたい 海沿いの国道を まだまだ空いてる バスに乗り 潮風を追いかけて 誰よりも早く 夏を探すんだ 心の隣で 同じ景色見ながら 何年間も 僕たちは友達のままさ カチューシャ外しながら 君が不意に振り返って 風の中で微笑んだだけで なぜか何も言えなくなるよ こんな思っているのに... カチューシャ外しながら 長い髪をほどくように いつの間にか大人になって 僕の手には届かないくらい もっと好きになるよ... 砂浜は 君に似て 思い通りに歩けないよ 寄せる波 避ける波 二人の足跡消されてしまった 確かなことなど 何もほしくはないよ 二人がきっと来年も海に来られたら カチューシャしてる君に 僕は長い恋愛中 同じクラス出会った日から 綺麗になった今日までずっと 季節何度廻っても カチューシャしてる君に 誰も彼も敵わないよ 世界中で一番似合う髪をとめた天使の輪っか 永久に変わらないで 君が好きだ 言葉にできないよ 君が好きだ ホントこの気持ち 君が好きだ 小麦色に焼けるように 恋はきっといつか気づくものだ

Feel the beat of the pulse running through your veins! Stand up! Together! Remember the day you were born! Everyone’s a Beginner! Stand up! Right away!

English Title: 10 Year Cherry Blossoms Performance by: AKB48 Lyrics by: Akimoto Yasushi Composition/Arrangement: Inoue Yoshimasa English Lyrics Somewhere out there the cherry blossoms Are gently fluttering in the wind Now’s the time for somebody to flap their wings And head out alone The fact that I met you Is why the seasons keep passing You had such a dazzling smile We can no longer go on together But don’t cry I will never forget you Let’s meet again in ten years I’ll be waiting right here Shining brighter than I am now Graduation’s just a process to renew our vows Even when this love’s been burnt out You’ll always be dear to me Up to now I’ve met a lot of people But because I love you the most I’ll keep your dreams close to me And hope that I can keep protecting you There will be tough times ahead Things might not go the way I want And as I count each spring that passes I might become a bit lonely But if I just believe in the future I can keep fighting on Let’s meet again in ten years When the cherry blossoms bloom No matter what happens, I’ll be there Graduation’s the start of an eternal journey Even though it’s dark with sadness now You’ll always be waving to me Cherry blossoms! No matter how many times they bloom I won’t ever forget What we call “today” Let’s meet again in ten years I’ll be waiting right here Shining brighter than I am now Graduation’s just a process to renew our vows Even when this love’s been burnt out You’ll always be dear to me Somewhere out there the cherry blossoms Are gently fluttering in the wind Now’s the time for somebody to flap their wings And head out alone I hope that I can keep protecting you Let’s meet again in ten years Romaji dokoka de sakura no hanabira ga harari to kaze ni mau you ni dare ni mo habataku toki ga kite hitorikiri de arukidasu nda kimi to aeta koto ga sugita kisetsu no imi sono egao ga mabushikatta issho ni ikenai kedo sonna ni nakanaide boku wa wasurenai juunengo ni mata aou kono basho de matteru yo ima yori mo motto kagayaite sotsugyou wa purosesu sa saikai no chikai sugu ni moetsukiru koi yori zutto itoshii kimi de ite ima made deatta dare yori mo honto ni kimi ga suki dakara jibun no sono yume taisetsu ni motto kimi wo mamoreru you ni tsurai koto atte mo umaku ikanakute mo sugiru haru wo kazoenagara samishiku naru keredo mirai wo shinjireba boku wa ganbareru juunengo ni mata aou kono sakura saku koro nani ga attatte koko ni kuru sotsugyou wa sutaato sa eien no michinori ima wa kanashimi ni kurete mo zutto te wo furu kimi de ite Cherry blossoms! nando saite mo kyou to iu hi wo wasure wa shinai juunengo ni mata aou kono basho de matteru yo ima yori mo motto kagayaite sotsugyou wa purosesu sa saikai no chikai sugu ni moetsukiru koi yori zutto itoshii kimi de ite dokoka de sakura no hanabira ga harari to kaze ni mau you ni dare ni mo habataku toki ga kite hitorikiri de arukidasu nda motto kimi wo mamoreru you ni juunengo ni mata aou Kanji どこかで桜の花びらが はらりと風に舞うように 誰にも羽ばたく時が来て 一人きりで歩き出すんだ 君と会えたことが 過ぎた季節の意味 その笑顔が眩しかった 一緒に行けないけど そんなに泣かないで 僕は忘れない 10年後に　また会おう この場所で待ってるよ 今よりももっと輝いて 卒業はプロセスさ　再会の誓い すぐに燃え尽きる恋より ずっと愛しい君でいて 今まで出会った誰よりも ホントに君が好きだから 自分のその夢　大切に もっと君を守れるように つらいことあっても うまくいかなくても 過ぎる春を数えながら 寂しくなるけれど 未来を信じれば 僕は　頑張れる 10年後に　また会おう この桜咲く頃 何があったってここに来る 卒業はスタートさ　永遠の道程 今は悲しみに暮れても ずっと手を振る君でいて Cherry blossoms! 何度　咲いても 今日という日を 忘れはしない 10年後に　また会おう この場所で待ってるよ 今よりももっと輝いて 卒業はプロセスさ　再会の誓い すぐに燃え尽きる恋より ずっと愛しい君でいて どこかで桜の花びらが はらりと風に舞うように 誰にも羽ばたく時が来て 一人きりで歩き出すんだ もっと君を　守れるように 10年後にまた会おう

Aim for the place where the sun rises Walk along the road of hope! Blocking the path is a river! River! River! A wide river! The river, river, river of fate! A river of trial! Cast away your doubts! Show some willpower! Don’t hesitate! Step forward now! Believe in yourself! Forward! Forward! Move straight ahead! Cross the river!! Dreams always seem far away It feels like they can’t be reached Pick up the stone at your feet Be a little reckless and throw it away! There’s a river running before your eyes A large, vast river Even if it’s dark and deep Even if the current is fast You don’t have to be afraid Even if it’s a long way across That’s right, there’s a bank on the other side Believe in yourself a little more Inside the darkness You’ve got to keep swimming! Don’t look back! If you hold out your hand You’ll find the future Don’t give up on the things you can’t reach! The rock you threw away will make your dreams come true You won’t even hear it hit the ground There’s also a river running in your heart A bitter river of trial Even if you don’t succeed Even if you nearly drown at times You can always try again Don’t give up There will be a bank Someday you’ll finally make it across Get over it! River! Don’t make excuses to yourself! You’ll never know unless you try! There’s nothing left but to go forward! Forever and always Keep walking along the path you’ve chose There’s a river running before your eyes A large, vast river Even if it’s dark and deep Even if the current is fast You don’t have to be afraid Even if it’s a long way across That’s right, there’s a bank on the other side Believe in yourself a little more There’s also a river running in your heart A river of sweat and tears Even if you screw up Even if you get carried away You can always try again Don’t whine or complain You can hold onto your dreams Until the day your wishes come true Cross the river!

River! 自分に言い訳するんじゃねえ! やってみなけりゃわかんねえ! まっすぐ進むしかねえ! ずっと　ずっと　ずっと 歩き続けろ 決めた道を! 君の目の前に 川が流れる 広く　大きな川だ 暗く深くても 流れ速くても 怯えなくていい 離れていても そうだ　向こう岸はある もっと　自分を信じろよ 君の心にも川が流れる 汗と涙の川だ! 失敗してしまっても 流されてしまっても やり直せばいい 弱音吐くなよ 夢にしがみつくんだ 願い　叶う日が来るまで 川を渡れ!

English Title: You and the Rainbow and the Sun Performance by: AKB48 Lyrics by: Akimoto Yasushi Composition: Shunryuu Arrangement: Nonaka Yuuichi English Lyrics A rainbow has appeared after the rain At the left end of the school building It’s okay if you look down and cry The sun will shine on the distant road If you wait for a while Light will shine through those clouds of sadness And reach your heart I want to protect you Within my embrace I’ll become the sun And wait for your rainbow of smiles I want to protect you And hold you close Every drop of your fallen tears Will shine in the colors of the rainbow On the day all your troubles fall as rain I’ll hold up a big umbrella and be by your side After the wind gently passes by Above the drenched soil The tears on your cheeks will dry The one thing I can do Is search for that rainbow Somewhere above us That bridge of happiness arches across the sky The one thing I can do Is put an end to the rain You’re shining brightly And I want these feelings to reach you I want to protect you Within my embrace I’ll become the sun And wait for your rainbow of smiles I want to protect you And hold you close Every drop of your fallen tears Will shine in the colors of the rainbow Even if love is within your reach It can soon disappear When love wants to cry out It will definitely come into sight Romaji niji ga deta yo ameagari no sora kousha no hidari no hashi no kanata shita wo muite nakitsudzukete ii tooku no machi kara harete kuru kanashimi no kumo sukoshi mateba sukima kara moreru you ni hikari ga sasu yo kokoro ni kimi wo mamoritai boku no ude no naka taiyou ni natte hohoemi no niji wo matou kimi wo mamoritai tsuyoku dakishimete afureta namida no hitoshizuku ga nana iro ni kagayaku yo tsurai koto ga furisosoida hi wa ooki na kasa sashite soba ni iru yasashisa wa kaze sugita ato de nureteita tsuchi no ue ya sono hoho ga kawaku you ni boku ni dekiru no wa niji wo sagasu koto kono sora no dokoka shiawase no hashi ga kakaru boku ni dekiru no wa ame ga yande kara kagayaita kimi e no sono omoi wo isshun tsutaeru koto kimi wo mamoritai boku no ude no naka taiyou ni natte hohoemi no niji wo matou kimi wo mamoritai tsuyoku dakishimete afureta namida no hitoshizuku ga nana iro ni kagayaku yo ai wa me ni mietemo sugi ni kiete yuku yo ai wa nakitai toki kitto miete kuru yo Kanji 虹が出たよ 雨上がりの空 校舎の左の端の彼方 下を向いて 泣き続けていい 遠くの街から晴れて来る 悲しみの雲 少し待てば 隙間から漏れるように 光が射すよ 心に 君を守りたい 僕の腕の中 太陽になって 微笑みの虹を待とう 君を守りたい 強く抱きしめて 溢れた涙の一滴が 七色に輝くよ つらいことが降り注いだ日は 大きな傘差して そばにいる やさしさは風 過ぎた後で 濡れていた 土の上や その頬が乾くように 僕にできるのは 虹を探すこと この空のどこか しあわせの橋が架かる 僕にできるのは 雨が止んでから 輝いた君へのその思いを 一瞬　伝えること 君を守りたい 僕の腕の中 太陽になって 微笑みの虹を待とう 君を守りたい 強く抱きしめて 溢れた涙の一滴が 七色に輝くよ 愛は目に見えても すぐに消えて行くよ 愛は泣きたい時 きっと　見えて来るよ

Houkago Tea Time II (Cassette Mix) Complete Lyrics & Dialogue Translation + DOWNLOAD

Because of a request by silent_leaf, I've compiled a collection of videos of Houkago Tea Time II's Cassette Mix. Each video has a picture relevant to the particular track, Romaji and English translated lyrics of the songs, as well as a translation of the dialogue at the end of each track.

I may eventually release a text-only version, but that'll come later. For now, I leave you with download links. HQ is for those who don't mind taking up 1.09 GB of space on their computer, and the lower quality version is for those whose hard drives are precious and can't afford to waste too much space.
