Japanese
白い坂道が　空まで続いていた ゆらゆらかげろうが　あの子を包む 誰も気づかず　ただひとり あの子は　昇っていく 何もおそれない　そして舞い上がる

空に憧れて　空をかけてゆく あの子の命は　ひこうき雲

高いあの窓で　あの子は死ぬ前も 空を見ていたの　今はわからない ほかの人には　わからない あまりにも　若すぎたと ただ思うだけ　けれどしあわせ

空に憧れて　空をかけてゆく あの子の命は　ひこうき雲

空に憧れて　空をかけてゆく あの子の命は　ひこうき雲

English
The white steep road, reaches the sky the shadows wrap around that girl Nobody notices, all alone she will climb up without fear, she will go up

Admiring the sky runs across the sky her soul/life is a jet cloud even before she passed away, through the tall big window.

She was gazing up at the sky. I dont know if she still does nobody will know they’re just gonna think she was too young to die but she is happy

Admiring the sky running across the sky her soul/life is a jet cloud

Admiring the sky running across the sky her soul/life is a jet cloud
