Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
窓を開けたら	mado o aketara	Upon opening the window,
ニムロッドの高塔と	nimuroddo no koutou to	there's the Nimrod high tower
二〇六九の快晴さ	ni maru rokkuu no kaisei sa	and the clear weather of 2069
明日はどこへ行こう	ashita wa doko e ikou	Where shall I go tomorrow?
街はビルを着込んで	machi wa biru o kikonde	The town dressed in buildings
すっかり鳥居は小さくなった	sukkari torii wa chiisaku natta	makes the torii look quite small,
ひとりぼっちの僕は	hitoribocchi no boku wa	I, all alone,
動かない場所を目指したのさ	ugokanai basho o mezashita no sa	set my mark on an unmoving place
窓を開けたら	mado o aketara	Upon opening the window,
ナイトスケープの高層と	naitosukeepu no kousou to	there's the nightscape with its high rises
レディメイドの天球儀	redimeido no tenkyuugi	and a readymade celestial globe
明日は月へ行こう！	ashita wa tsuki e ikou!	Tomorrow I'll go to the moon!
ねえアポロ、	nee aporo,	Hey Apollo,
君はどんな地球(ほし)を見たの?	kimi wa donna hoshi o mita no?	what world did you see?
本当の宇宙(そら)を君だけが知っている	hontou no sora o kimi dake ga shitte iru	Only you know of the true expanse
明日 会いに行くよ	ashita ai ni iku yo	Tomorrow I'll go to the sea of tranquility
静かの海へ	shizuka no umi e	to meet you
誘(いざな)うのさ あの日の夢	izanau no sa ano hi no yume	It calls, that day's dream,
僕の知らない地平の歌	boku no shiranai chihei no uta	a song of a horizon unfamiliar to me
街は空を隠して	machi wa sora o kakushite	The town hiding the sky
すっかり僕らは小さくなった	sukkari bokura wa chiisaku natta	made us look quite small
ニムロッドの高塔を	nimuroddo no koutou o	Graze the Nimrod high tower
三馬身掠(かす)めてゆけ	san-bashin kasumete yuke	by three horse lengths
動かない場所を目指すのさ！	ugokanai basho o mezasu no sa!	I'm aiming for an unmoving place!
ねえアポロ、	nee aporo,	Hey Apollo,
君はどうして嘘をつく?	kimi wa doushite uso o tsuku?	why do you tell a lie?
本当の宇宙(そら)はどこにもないんだ	hontou no sora wa doko ni mo nai nda	For there is no true expanse anywhere
いっそ	isso	Would I rather,
藍に暮れる	ai ni kureru	in the indigo-darkened
静かの海へ	shizuka no umi e	sea of tranquility,
葬ってしまおうか	hoomutte shimaou ka	create a tomb?
誰も知らない地平の歌	dare mo shiranai chihei no uta	A song of a horizon unfamiliar to all
本当の宇宙(そら)って何だろな	hontou no sora tte nan daro na	What is true expanse anyway?
嘘って何だろな	uso tte nan daro na	What is a lie anyway?
誰も疑うことのない夢も歴史も	dare mo utagau koto no nai yume mo rekishi mo	For all the dreams and history that no one doubts,
そっと目を開けたら	sotto me o aketara	upon softly opening my eyes,
二〇六九の蒼天に	ni maru rokkuu no souten ni	in the 2069 azure sky
オールド・グローリーの星条旗	oorudo guroorii no seijouki	there's Old Glory's stars and stripes
僕はいま月に居る！	boku wa ima tsuki ni iru!	Now, I am on the moon!
ねえアポロ、	nee aporo,	Hey Apollo,
君はどんな地球(ほし)を見たの?	kimi wa donna hoshi o mita no?	what world did you see?
本当の宇宙(そら)を僕だけが知っている	hontou no sora o boku dake ga shitte iru	Only I know of the true expanse
それは	sore wa	It is
藍に凪ぐ	ai ni nagu	the story of days when I dreamed
静かの海を	shizuka no umi o	of the sea of tranquility
夢見た日々の物語	yumemita hibi no monogatari	falling calm in indigo,
君の知らない地平の歌	kimi no shiranai chihei no uta	a song of a horizon unfamiliar to you
