Cherry blossoms scatter now but new flowers will bloom
come next spring
I can't protect you. The chaos has taken root
deep within our garden, within my cherry tree home
Little brother, does my conviction reach you?
Are you watching the changing clouds?
Until the day when we bear fruit and look up
to the same great sky of our childhood,
come with me. Our bonds should bloom on the same branch
Ah, to the ends of the earth.
The thick shower of cherry blossom petals
somehow resemble you
Rather than looking back at the past, look onwards with a clear gaze
towards the path we must take
Even with these thoughts, I feel a disturbance
within the winds of this tremulous age
Destiny, where will you take us?
Like the flying flock of birds,
let us take flight in this blue sky
until the day when we must return to our perch
Little brother, can you hear my sincerest wish?
Don't be led astray from the path we must take
Until the day when we bear fruit and can gaze upon
the same free sky of our childhood,
come with me. Our bonds blossom on the same branch
Ah, everywhere and anywhere.
Come with me to meet our destiny
until the day comes when we return to our rightful perch
