Please tell me
If the lives of every living thing in this world
Are limited
Will the ocean die? Will the mountains die?
How about the wind? And the sky too?
Please tell me
I sometimes think about suffering
Everyone embraces sadness equally
The pain of living, the sadness of aging
The pain of disease, The sadness of dying
And me right now
Please give me an answer
If there is a promise in the lives of
Everything in this world
Will the spring die? Will the autumn die?
As the summer leaves, as the winter comes
Will everyone pass away?
Is it alright to believe in the glimmering
Of a small existence?
The unseen desires said with words
People come, and people go
The waning moon will soon be full
During this life
Please tell me
If the lives of every living thing in this world
Are limited
Will the ocean die? Will the mountains die?
Will the spring die? Will the autumn die?
Will love die? Will the heart die?
Will my hometown, that is so special to me
Pass away with everyone else?
Will the ocean die? Will the mountains die?
Will the spring die? Will the autumn die?
Will love die? Will the heart die?
Will my hometown, that is so special to me
Pass away with everyone else?
