Embracing the light and shadow
that are trembling within my heart
Chasing the dream that I can't throw away
The proud love is resurrected.
The colors of the sunset
are painful and beautiful and
in the sea of my closed heart are tears
that have overflowed.
The brilliance will never return again.
Tomorrow, I want
freedom like the blowing wind.
Embracing the light and shadow
that are trembling within my heart,
Chasing the dream I can't throw away,
Someday, I want to find
the eternally outspreading future.
Everyday that we fight,
we miss each other in passing. "Hello, Good-bye"
It would be nice if we could keep on walking
without hurting each other.
The wish cast into the sky
after the rain, draws a seven-color rainbow.
When the love trembling in my heart
becomes broken,
Without forgetting the wishful feelings,
Always, I want to deliver them.
Believing, in the future I can't see.
You taught me
this transitoriness, this strength
I want to pass over
the sadness trembling within my heart.
So that I don't lose to a weak heart
I want to protect love
Embracing the light and shadow
that are trembling within my heart
Chasing the dream I can't throw away.
The proud love is resurrected
in the glittering future.
The intial releases of the localized dubbed version of the anime contained an English dub from Sandy Fox of the first verse titled "Holding the Light and Darkness" with the following lyrics:
I hold the light and the darkness of my heart
Trembling while I embrace the shadows
Moving me apart
I can't give up all the dreams that I have chased
And my love will be there
And will come to me again with pride.
When I look to the sunset
All the colours so beautiful
That the tears fall right down
Into the sea
To the ocean of my heart.
Though the brightness of the sun
Has drifted far away
Tomorrow holds
The sunlight of a brand new day for me.
I hold the light and the darkness of my heart
Trembling while I embrace the shadows
Moving me apart
And I can't give up all the dreams that I have chased
