歌：コトリンゴ
胸にしみる 空のかがやき
今日も遠くながめ
涙をながす
悲しくて 悲しくて
とてもやりきれない
このやるせない モヤモヤを
だれかに告げようか
白い雲は 流れ流れて
今日も夢はもつれ
わびしくゆれる
悲しくて 悲しくて
とてもやりきれない
この限りない むなしさの
救いはないだろうか
深い森の みどりにだかれ
今日も風の唄に
しみじみ嘆く
悲しくて 悲しくて
とてもやりきれない
このもえたぎる 苦しさは
明日も続くのか
Performed by kotringo
Fill my heart with the radiance of the sky
Looking out as far as I can see
I feel the tears come again
Everything’s so sad, everything’s so sad
I cannot bear it very much more
Oh, this miserable sense that something isn’t right:
Should I find someone to tell it to?
High and white, the clouds are like a river flowing by
My dreams are tangling up again
Swaying oh desolately
Everything’s so sad, everything’s so sad
I cannot bear it very much more
Oh, this boundless feeling of emptiness inside:
Somewhere is there a cure to be found?
Deep and green, the forest envelops me in embrace
The wind is singing its song again
And I’m grieving deep in my heart
Everything’s so sad, everything’s so sad
I cannot bear it very much more
Oh, this burning feeling of anguish inside:
By tomorrow, will it still be here?
