Moriyama Naotarou Niji - Rainbow lyric

hirogaru sora ni  boku wa ima  omoi hase
hada no nukumori to  yogoreta SUNIIKAA
tada kumo wa nagare

As we let our thoughts soar in the expanding sky,
we see the warmth of our skin, and our soiled sneakers,
while the clouds merely keep flowing on.

kirameku hibi ni  kimi wa mata  yubi o tate
nami no sazameki to  urabureta kotoba
tooi sora o sagashita

You pointed your finger again at our glittering days,
and searched in the sky
for the the sound of ocean waves and lonely words.

yorokobi to kanashimi no aida ni
tsukanoma to iu toki ga ari
iro no nai sekai  futashita na mono o
kowarenai you ni kakushimotte'ru

In the space between joy and sorrow,
there's a moment called "transience",
where we hold covertly in our hands
all the uncertain things of this colorless world.

bokura no deai o  dareka ga wakare to yonda
ameagari no sakamichi
bokura no wakare o  dareka ga deai to yonda
toki wa sugi itsuka  shiranai machi de
kimi no koto o omotte iru

Our encounter was called a farewell by someone,
as it happened on that after-rain slope.
Then, our farewell was called an encounter by someone.
As time elapses, somewhere in an unknown town,
I'll be thinking about you.

kaze ni natta hibi no kuuhaku o
sorazorashii uta ni nosete
mirai o mezashita tabibito wa warau
ASUFARUTO ni mebuku HINAGESHI no you ni

Loading onto their specious songs
the blank space of their past days that have turned into wind,
the travelers keep their eyes on their future and smile,
just like poppy flowers sprouting through the asphalt.

bokura no yorokobi o  dareka ga kanashimi to yonda
kaze ni yureru BURANKO
bokura no kanashimi o  dareka ga yorokobi to yonda
ashita e to tsuzuku fuange na sora ni
iro azayaka na niji ga kakatte iru

Our joy was called sorrow by someone,
on a swing swaying to the wind.
Then, our sorrow was called joy by someone.
In the uneasy sky leading towards tomorrow,
a brightly-colored rainbow has appeared.

bokura no deai o  dareka ga wakare to yonde mo
itazura ni toki wa nagarete itta
kimi to boku ni hikari o nokoshite

Even if our encounter was called a farewell by someone,
the idly passed time
has left radiance onto you and me.
