aozora   nami wa shizuka
zawameki   tooku hibiki
hashagi mawaru   kimi ga   ai kurushii
me wo tojireba   kokoro wa sora

chiisa na   inu wo tsurete
kurage to   oshaberi shite
ikiterutte   tabun   ai… ai… ai…
suna ni egakou   kimi no tomodachi

harukana tooi mukashi kara
umarete wa   kieteitta
na mo naki inochi no koe wo
kimi wa kikiiteiru no darou
tokidoki   chuu wo mitsume
iruka no you ni warau
sonna kimi wo mamoritai

kaigara   shiroi koishi
hitode to   tako no makura
poketto ni wa   umi no   ai… ai… ai…
setsunai hodo   kimi no tomodachi

takara mono mitsukeru tabi
suteki ni natte yukunda ne
otona ni natta toki   kitto
sasaete kureru hazu da yo
tsurai toki   shizuka ni
omoidashite goran
hitori janai   donna toki date

suiheisen ni tsudzuku   ai… ai… ai…
toki wo koete   kimi no tomodachi
zutto zutto   kimi no tomodachi
itsu no soba ni   kimi no tomodachi

Under a blue sky, the waves are quiet
Your noise resounds in the distance
As you frolic and play.  You look so charming
If I close my eyes, my mind is cleared

The small dog that comes along
Chats with the jellyfish
Perhaps in all that’s alive, there is love, love, love
Making marks in the sand with your friend

From the far distant past,
Things are born and they disappear
You can hear the voices of
The various unknown life
As they sometimes hang in the air

I want to protect you
Who laughs like a dolphin

Shells, small white rocks
Starfish and sand dollars
In a pocket, the sea’s love, love, love
To the point that it hurts, I am your friend

A journey to find treasured things
Becomes wonderful, doesn’t it?
At this time that we mature, certainly
I should support you
In times of pain, quietly
I remember and watch over you
You are never alone, no matter when

Under a blue sky, the waves are quiet
Your noise resounds in the distance
Covered in sand, you look charming
When we join hands, my mind is cleared

A new wave arises
Chasing dreams without end
Continuing on the horizon, love, love, love
Your friend, crossing over time
Your friend, forever and ever
Your friend, always by your side
