Akai hoppe ki'iro no shatsu	あかいほっぺ　きいろのシャツ
Giza-giza moyou no boku no besuto furendo	ギザギザもようの　ぼくのベストフレンド
Shiroi peeji rakugaki shite	しろいページ　らくがきして
Dekitate no uta utatta yo ne	できたてのうた　うたったよね

Wasurenai yo kimi to no episoodo	わすれないよ　きみとのエピソード
Ryoute ippai no "arigatou"	りょうていっぱいの　〝ありがとう〝

Yuuyami ni somaru oozora o goran	ゆうやみにそまる　おおぞらをごらん
Pika-pika atatakai hoshi ga warau yo	ピカピカあたたかい　ほしがわらうよ
Atarashii kaze ga yondeiru kara	あたらしいかぜが　よんでいるから
Kimi to aruite ikitai	きみとあるいていきたい

Kusa no umi o hadashi no mama	くさのうみを　はだしのまま
Hashaide odotte koronda koto	はしゃいでおどって　ころんだこと
Hikaru bajji narabe nagara	ひかるバッジ　ならべながら
Kokoro tsunaide nemutta koto	こころつないで　ねむったこと

Wasurenai yo kimi to no episoodo	わすれないよ　きみとのエピソード
Kazoe kirenai "takaramono"	かぞえきれない　〝たからもの〝

Doko made mo takaku habataite ikou	どこまでもたかく　はばたいていこう
Kira-kira akogare no hoshi o oikoshi	キラキラあこがれの　ほしをおいこし
Massara na asa ga me o samashitara	まっさらなあさが　めをさましたら
Dekakeyou ano basho e	でかけよう　あのばしょへ

Doko made mo tsuzuku michi o...	どこまでも　つづくみちを．．．

Translation

The goal of the following translation is to present the meaning of the song in a competent, coherent way. It is not meant to be an English version of the song that can be sung along with the melody.

With red cheeks, a yellow shirt
And a zig-zag pattern, you're my best friend
We've scribbled all over a fresh white page
And sang the song we just finished

The unforgettable episodes we share
Both my hands are filled with the words "thank you"

Look up at the sky dyed by the light of dusk
The sparkling, warm stars are smiling
A new breeze is calling out to us
So I want to go walking with you

Running barefoot through a sea of grass
Frolicking and dancing and falling down
As we lined up our shining badges
Our hearts were connected and we went to sleep

The unforgettable episodes we share
There are too many treasures for me to count

No matter where or how far we fly
Chasing after the sparkling stars
If a brand new morning comes
Let's head out for that place

On the road that continues forever...
