THERRU NO UTA (Therru's Song)
Performed by: Teshima Aoi
Lyrics Written by: Miyazaki Goro

Yuuyami semaru kumo no ue
Itsumo ichiwa de tondeiru
Taka wa kitto kanashikarou
Oto mo todaeta kaze no naka sora wo tsukanda sono tsubasa
Yasumeru koto wa dekinakute
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you taka no youna kono kokoro
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you sora wo mau youna kanashisa wo

Ame no sobo furu iwa kage ni
Itsumo chiisaku saiteiru
Hana wa kitto setsunakarou
Iro mo kasunda ame no naka usu momo iro no hanabira wo
Medete kureru te mo nakute
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you hana no youna kono kokoro
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you ame ni utareru setsunasa wo

Hitokage taeta no no michi wo
Watashi to tomo ni ayunderu
Anata mo kitto sabishikarou
Mushi no sasayaku kusahara wo tomo ni michi yuku hito dakedo
Taete mono iu koto mo naku
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you hitori michi yuku kono kokoro
Kokoro wo nani ni tatoe you hitoribocchi no sabishisa wo

As dusk draws near, above the clouds
There is always one hawk, flying alone
And I think he must be sad
Within the wind that mutes all sound, those wings that grasped the sky
Are ever unable to rest
How can I convey my heart, this heart so like that hawk
How can I convey my heart, this sadness that's alike soaring through the sky

In the shadow of a rock being drenched in the rain
There is always one small flower in bloom
And I think it must be in pain
Within the downpour that makes hazy all color, there is no one to admire
Its now faded pink petals
How can I convey my heart, this heart so like that flower
How can I convey my heart, this sadness that's alike being pounded down upon by rain

On this path that extinguishes even your shadow
You walk with me
And I think you must be lonely, too
But although we are going down the same road through this grassy plain
As the insects whisper, we exchange no words
How can I convey my heart, this heart that walks its path alone
How can I convey my heart, this solitary lonesomeness
