Tooku kara mune furuwasu oto ga hibiite kuru
Mushiatsui yami no mukou ga yakete iru
Senkou ga yobisamashita ano natsu no hanabi wo
Kawakaze ga hakonda kayaku no nioi wo
Hito de afureru teibou hagurenai you ni
Majika de mita juugou dama mabataki wo wasureta
Imagoro anata mo dokoka de omoidashiteru no?
Ano hi no koto
Tomodachi ni hiyaka sareta mou natsu no hajime ni wa
Futari shite hana to hoho dake yakete ita
Kawa ni ochiru hanabira ga kieteku magiwa ni
Tateru oto ga setsunakute me o sorasenakatta
Imagoro anata mo dareka to kotoshi no hanabi wo miteru no?
Chitteku kisetsu wo issho ni ikite yukeru hito mitsuketa?
Nokoru kemuri kasumu daisankaku
Shuyaku ubawareta hachigatsu no seiza
Imagoro anata mo dokoka de omoidashiteru no?
Ano natsu no hanabi wo
Kotoshi mo kirei ne ano hi to onaji you ni kagayaku hanatachi
Imagoro anata mo dokoka de chitteku kisetsu wo ikiteru
Imagoro dareka to...
From far away, breast-shaking sounds are echoing
steaming heat -- burning in the darkness
flashes awakened -- that past summer's fireworks
carried on the river-wind, the aroma of gunpowder
Riverbank so overflowing with people, probably not able to peel off
seen nearby the #10 shell's flash was forgotten
These days do you too, somewhere, recall... that day...
Teased by friends at the very start of summer
as a couple, only our noses and cheeks were sunburned
flower petals falling into the river, on the verge of disappearing
pattering sounds gentle, couldn't turn my eyes away
These days are you too, with someone, seeing this year's fireworks?
Did you find the person compatible through the falling-away seasons?
The remaining smoke, hazy Great Triangle [Altair, Vega, Deneb]
leading part taken away, August's constellation [Sagittarius]
These days do you too, somewhere, recall... that past summer's fireworks...
This year too, so beautiful, the same as that day, the shining blossoms
These days, are you too, somewhere, living through the falling-away seasons
These days, with someone...
