蛍の草原 [Hotaru no sōgen] [English translation]

The powder of the camp fire burns the starry sky

The lights of the town by the mountain sway

Taking my hand I walk by the river

On a quiet summer night

On the cold crystal brooklets

I made float a passionate feeling like a bamboo boat

I love you

Fireflies fly

They're as many as the stars

Burn your small lives

Shining on our whereabouts

I feel like I dreamed this before

Surely the destiny joined us from the previous life

You show a mysterious smile

And you hold me

Taking our hands lightly

You rise to the space little by little, it's wonderful

To the high sky

Fireflies fly

Turning on their pale lights

Take us softly

To the shining milky way

Come on

Fireflies fly

They're as many as the stars

Burn your small lives

Shining on our whereabouts

Fireflies fly

Turning on their pale lights

Take us softly

To the shining milky way
