Let's be proud that we've loved without unlinking our hands Echoing an ode to joy... Let's dance the dance of fortune NOW WE'RE HERE—it's okay if you soar Let's celebrate the miracle that we met You and me, together, let's BANZAI for tomorrow No friends and no enemies, let's BANZAI for the shining present We survive on this recklessly spinning planet Is it fate that you and I were able to come across each other? Turning points, meeting points, the starting point, the ending point They're all buried like mines Putting the fluttering flag to my chest... I won't fight, and instead will try and be grateful Echoing an ode to joy... Let's dance the dance of fortune NOW WE'RE HERE—it's okay if you don't change Let's praise the fact that we've come this far You and me, together, let's BANZAI for tomorrow No friends and no enemies, let's BANZAI for the shining present Every day that the sun rises, BANZAI for the first step Just like it will for the past and the future The vigor to just laugh things off... The treasures that shine in the heart... NOW WE'RE HERE—it's not the same thing all over again Echoing an ode to joy... Let's dance the dance of fortune NOW WE'RE HERE—it's okay if you change Let's praise the fact that we've come this far Let's rush into a faint tomorrow
JAPANESE 歌詞 気を失いそうな 空の青に 目を細め 出てゆく君の胸は高鳴り 僕を振り返らない すべては流れのままに行くと 笑いながら 涙は熱いものだと知る 遠くの未来に怯えてるよりも 手を抜かず愛したことを誇ろう とどろけ 歓喜の歌よ おどろうぜ 幸運の舞を Now we're here とんじゃえばいいよ 出会えた奇跡を祝いましょう アナタトワタシデサア アシタノタメニ BANZAI テキモミカタモナイゾ カガヤクイマニ BANZAI 乱暴にまわってるこの星で 生き延びてる 君と僕とが交わりあえたのは 運命なんでしょうか? 分岐点 合流点 出発点 そして終点 地雷のように埋められてる 翻る旗を胸に僕は 戦わないで感謝してみよう とどろけ 歓喜の歌よ おどろうぜ 幸運の舞を Now we're here 変わんないでいいよ ここまできたことを称えましょう アナタトワタシデサア アシタノタメニ BANZAI テキモミカタモナイゾ カガヤクイマニ BANZAI マイニチヒガノボリ ハジメノイッポダ BANZAI カコモミライモイッショ 笑い飛ばせる気力を 心に光る勲章を Now we're here　繰り返しじゃない とどろけ 歓喜の歌よ おどろうぜ 幸運の舞を Now we're here 変わったっていいよ ここまできたことを称えましょう 薄暗い明日になだれ込みましょう
