English:
Swing slowly, drift slowly,
Colorful blooming flowers
I remember the city full of flower
From this sky
From an unexpected event
I finally arrived at this place
On a glittering stage
That once felt so far away
I realized there was a world so bright, and it amazed me
Every time I answered an apparently impossible task given by you
With an answer that was so surprising and extraordinarily strange
At the end of the journey, a new landscape awaited
A very strange mystery
Repeatedly appeared in front of me
Even the intricate design
I’ll reveal everything
No matter the difficulties
There’s always a trick or a secret
I don’t care about the side effects
Because I’ll find the answer
Ah, in this place, there is sadness and happiness that people feel
Each of those feelings, on their own, is capable of stirring the heart
I realized there was a world so bright, and it amazed me
In my daily life, I answer the seemingly impossible task given by you
With an answer that was so surprising and extraordinarily strange
At the end of the journey, a new version of me awaited
At that moment, I couldn’t even imagine it
But now the future is starting to bloom
Days like this might not be too bad
Swing slowly, drift slowly
After parting, then drawing closer again
Follow the wind
Dancing in a lonely night
