Lyrics
| Japanese | Romaji | English |
| 日が沈んだすぐあとの | hi ga shizunda sugu ato no | I love the blue[1] that appears |
| 藍が大好きなのは | ai ga daisuki na no wa | right after the sun sets because… |
| あなたのあの黄金色の | anata no ano koganeiro no | that golden coloured hair of yours |
| 髪が眩しすぎなくなるから | kami ga mabushi suginaku naru kara | becomes a little less blinding |
| あの日ふたりを見ていた | ano hi futari o mite ita | The comet we saw that day- |
| 何も知らぬ彗星に | nani mo shiranu suisei ni | knew nothing |
| なれたならいいのに | nareta nara ii noni | Wouldn't it be nice if we became the same (as that comet) |
| 藍の果てに往けるのに | ai no hate ni yukeru no ni | We could go to the ends of this blue |
| 空想ばかり話す僕だから | kuusou bakari hanasu boku dakara | Perhaps it's because I keep speaking of such fantasies… |
| 離れ離れになったのか | hanarebanare ni natta no ka | that we've become separated |
| いつのまにかあなたの | itsunomanika anata no | Before I realised it, I… |
| ことを忘れちゃって | koto o wasurechatte | had forgotten about you |
| ただ息を吸うガラクタに | tada iki o suu garakuta ni | If I could be a piece of trash, simply breathing, |
| なれば笑える時もあるかな | nareba waraeru toki mo aru kana | perhaps there'd be times when I could laugh |
| そんな明日が来たなら | sonna ashita ga kita nara | If a future like that were to come to pass, |
| 焼き尽くして彗星よ | yaki tsukushite suisei yo | then burn out, oh comet |
| やめたほうがいいのに | yameta hou ga ii noni | Even though it’s better to stop |
| 大人達は笑うけど | otona-tachi wa warau kedo | Though the grownups laugh at me |
| 呼吸よりも当然なあなたの | kokyuu yori mo touzen na anata no | Only your smile, more natural than even breathing, |
| 笑顔だけがわかっている | egao dake ga wakatte iru | I can understand |
| 多分 | tabun | …I think |
| だんだん色がなくなって | dandan iro ga nakunatte | Gradually, the colours fade |
| あなたの誕生日も忘れちゃうような | anata no tanjoubi mo wasurechau you na | If I become an adult that'll forget |
| 大人になったらどうする | otona ni nattara dou suru | even your birthday, what do I do? |
| どうする | dou suru | What do I do? |
| 夢のように愛して | yume no you ni aishite | I'll love like I dream; |
| 愛のように夢をみて | ai no you ni yume o mite | Dream like I love |
| 空想でも信じれば | kuusou demo shinjireba | If I believe in my fantasies |
| いつか叶うからと | itsuka kanau kara to | they'll come true someday |
| 言ってた | itteta | That's what you told me |
| 彗星になれなかった姿を | suisei ni narenakatta sugata o | The figure that couldn't become a comet- |
| 笑い飛ばしてほしかった | waraitobashite hoshikatta | I wanted to laugh it off |
| 日が沈んだすぐあとの | hi ga shizunda sugu ato no | I love the blue that appears |
| 藍が大好きなのは | ai ga daisuki na no wa | right after the sun sets because… |
| あなたの瞳が | anata no hitomi ga | those eyes of yours |
| 僕の泣いてるとこ | boku no naiteru toko | are better off not being able to see |
| 見えなくていいから | mienakute ii kara | where I'm crying |

Translation Notes
- ↑ I translated 藍(ai) as blue because in by searching it up Japanese, you get a blue hue unlike indigo (which leans to purple) so I figured it'd be inaccurate to say 'indigo'.
| Japanese | Romaji | English |
| 日が沈んだすぐあとの | hi ga shizunda sugu ato no | The indigo blue right after the sun has set- |
| 藍が大好きなのは | ai ga daisuki na no wa | The reason I like it so much is |
| あなたのあの黄金色の | anata no ano koganeiro no | Because your golden colored hair |
| 髪が眩しすぎなくなるから | kami ga mabushi suginaku naru kara | Becomes not too bright to look at |
| あの日ふたりを見ていた | ano hi futari o mite ita | On that day, it was watching the two of them |
| 何も知らぬ彗星に | nani mo shiranu suisei ni | The comet that didn’t know anything |
| なれたならいいのに | nareta nara ii noni | If only I could have become that comet |
| 藍の果てに往けるのに | ai no hate ni yukeru no ni | I’d be able to go to the end of that indigo |
| 空想ばかり話す僕だから | kuusou bakari hanasu boku dakara | But I’m me, who only talks about daydreams, so |
| 離れ離れになったのか | hanarebanare ni natta no ka | Was that why we got separated, I wonder |
| いつのまにかあなたの | itsunomanika anata no | Before I know it, I’ll forget |
| ことを忘れちゃって | koto o wasurechatte | About you |
| ただ息を吸うガラクタに | tada iki o suu garakuta ni | If I become just a piece of garbage that breathes |
| なれば笑える時もあるかな | nareba waraeru toki mo aru kana | I wonder, would there also be times where I could laugh? |
| そんな明日が来たなら | sonna ashita ga kita nara | If that kind of tomorrow comes |
| 焼き尽くして彗星よ | yaki tsukushite suisei yo | Just burn me up, comet |
| やめたほうがいいのに | yameta hou ga ii noni | Even though it would be better to just stop |
| 大人達は笑うけど | otona-tachi wa warau kedo | The adults will laugh, but |
| 呼吸よりも当然なあなたの | kokyuu yori mo touzen na anata no | Even more natural than breathing, your |
| 笑顔だけがわかっている | egao dake ga wakatte iru | Smile is all I understand |
| 多分 | tabun | Probably |
| だんだん色がなくなって | dandan iro ga nakunatte | Gradually the color disappears |
| あなたの誕生日も忘れちゃうような | anata no tanjoubi mo wasurechau you na | If I become the kind of adult who even forgets your |
| 大人になったらどうする | otona ni nattara dou suru | Birthday, what would I do |
| どうする | dou suru | What would I do? |
| 夢のように愛して | yume no you ni aishite | Love as if dreaming |
| 愛のように夢をみて | ai no you ni yume o mite | Dream as if in love |
| 空想でも信じれば | kuusou demo shinjireba | Even daydreams will someday |
| いつか叶うからと | itsuka kanau kara to | come true if we believe in them, |
| 言ってた | itteta | you said |
| 彗星になれなかった姿を | suisei ni narenakatta sugata o | My silhouette, that wasn’t able to become a comet- |
| 笑い飛ばしてほしかった | waraitobashite hoshikatta | I wanted you to laugh me off |
| 日が沈んだすぐあとの | hi ga shizunda sugu ato no | The indigo blue |
| 藍が大好きなのは | ai ga daisuki na no wa | right after the sun has set- |
| あなたの瞳が | anata no hitomi ga | The reason I like it so much is |
| 僕の泣いてるとこ | boku no naiteru toko | Because it’s okay that your eyes can’t see |
| 見えなくていいから | mienakute ii kara | Where I am crying |
