Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
KagayaitaIt shone so bright
Dareka no suki yori boku no suki o kobasanaideDon’t let my own passions spill for the sake of someone else’s
One loveOne love
One loveOne love
One love foreverOne love forever
One loveOne love
One loveOne love
Aa ibuku hana waAh, the flower breathing with life
Chikara tsuyoku kagayainten da hokorashige niIt’s shining so powerfully and with such pride
Ame ga futte mo kaze ga fuite moEven if the rain falls or the wind starts to blow,
Boku dake no kokoro no hana oI’ll keep the flower of my heart all to myself
Dareka ni shirareru no ga hazukashikutte saI was just too embarrassed to let anyone else know,
Taisetsu ni kagi kake houseki mitai niSo I locked it away carefully, just like a jewel
Kitto sonzai nante shinai nante saa itteta kke naI think I even used to say that it probably didn’t even exist
Sonna kako no jibun okizari ni shite saLeaving that past version of myself far behind me now
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
TokimeiteMy heart’s racing
Nanigenai mainichi gyutto dakishimetaI held my ordinary daily life closer than ever
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
KagayaitaIt shone so bright
Dareka no suki yori boku no suki o kobasanaideDon’t let my own passions spill for the sake of someone else’s

Aa mebuku haru waAh, the budding spring
Hoho o nadeteCaresses my cheek
Nigete itte ikun da ashibaya ni saAnd then it runs away so quickly
Te o nobashite tsukaou to shitaI reached out my hand and tried to catch
Hirari hirari mai chiru hana oThe flowers fluttering and dancing down
Otona ni nareba hazukashikutte saAs I became an adult, I felt so embarrassed,
Taisetsu na koto o miushinatte itaThat I ended up losing sight of what truly matters
Zutto kazarittari senobi shitari muri shitetaI’ve always been dressing things up, acting tough, and overdoing it
Sonna kudanarai puraido nugi sutete saI’ll just strip away that kind of worthless pride
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
TokimeiteMy heart’s racing
Chiisana shiawase sotto kamishimetaI quietly savored a small moment of happiness
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
KagayaitaIt shone so bright
Dareka no suki yori boku no suki o hanasanaideDon’t let go of my own passions for the sake of someone else’s
Zutto sagashite itaI’ve been searching for it this whole time
Kirai ni naru riyuu oSearching for a reason to hate myself
Zutto nigete ita n daI’ve been running away all along
Obiette ita n daI’ve been so afraid,
Itsu datteEach and every time
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
TokimeiteMy heart’s racing
Nanigenai mainichi gyutto dakishimeta naraIf I can just hold my ordinary daily life close to me,
Kirari kirari kirariSparkling, sparkling, sparkling
KagayaitaIt shone so bright
Dareka no suki yori boku no suki o kobasanaideDon’t let my own passions spill for the sake of someone else’s
