Ameagari no asa O-hi-sama kirari Ii koto ga arisou na Yokan no reinboo In the morning after the rain The sunlight bends into A rainbow foretelling Something good will happen Jitensha ni notte Machi wo tobidasou Chotto dake bouken Chigau sora wo mi ni Riding on a bicycle I’ll rush into the city Just a little adventure Looking at a different sky Atarashii kaze Karada juu ni ukete Kyuu na sakamichi nobottara A new gust of wind Blows all through my body When I climb the steep hill road Me no mae ni Hirogaru sougen Jitensha goto nekoronde Shinkokyuu shitara Fushigi da ne Hikouki kumo ga Watashi wo aoku sumikitta kagayaki ni tsureteku Here before my eyes The expansive plain Lying down with my bicycle When I take a deep breath It is wondrous The plane of the clouds Takes me away to the clear blue brilliance Reeru no hibiki wa Yasashii rizumu Chotto dake bouken Chigau keshiki mi ni The sound of the rail is A gentle rhythm Just a little adventure Looking at different scenery Fumikiri, tekkyou Eki, koharubiyori Midori no tonneru nuketara A rail crossing and bridge And station in the mild autumn When I pass through the green tunnel Me no mae wa Doko made mo umi Mado wo ippai ni akete Shinkokyuu shitara Fushigi da ne Toketeku yuuhi Kokoro no iro doko made mo toumei ni shite yuku In front of my eyes A sea reaching all around Opening lots of windows When I take a deep breath It is wondrous The setting evening sun Makes the colors of my heart everywhere turn clear Me no mae ni Hirogaru sougen Jitensha goto nekoronde Shinkokyuu shitara Fushigi da ne Hikouki kumo ga Watashi wo aoku sumikitta kagayaki ni tsureteku Here before my eyes The expansive plain Lying down with my bicycle When I take a deep breath It is wondrous The plane of the clouds Takes me away to the clear blue brilliance

Ameagari no asa
O-hi-sama kirari
Ii koto ga arisou na
Yokan no reinboo

In the morning after the rain
The sunlight bends into
A rainbow foretelling
Something good will happen

Jitensha ni notte
Machi wo tobidasou
Chotto dake bouken
Chigau sora wo mi ni

Riding on a bicycle
I’ll rush into the city
Just a little adventure
Looking at a different sky

Atarashii kaze
Karada juu ni ukete
Kyuu na sakamichi nobottara

A new gust of wind
Blows all through my body
When I climb the steep hill road

*Me no mae ni
Hirogaru sougen
Jitensha goto nekoronde
Shinkokyuu shitara
Fushigi da ne
Hikouki kumo ga
Watashi wo aoku sumikitta kagayaki ni tsureteku

*Here before my eyes
The expansive plain
Lying down with my bicycle
When I take a deep breath
It is wondrous
The plane of the clouds
Takes me away to the clear blue brilliance

Reeru no hibiki wa
Yasashii rizumu
Chotto dake bouken
Chigau keshiki mi ni

The sound of the rail is
A gentle rhythm
Just a little adventure
Looking at different scenery

Fumikiri, tekkyou
Eki, koharubiyori
Midori no tonneru nuketara

A rail crossing and bridge
And station in the mild autumn
When I pass through the green tunnel

Me no mae wa
Doko made mo umi
Mado wo ippai ni akete
Shinkokyuu shitara
Fushigi da ne
Toketeku yuuhi
Kokoro no iro doko made mo toumei ni shite yuku

In front of my eyes
A sea reaching all around
Opening lots of windows
When I take a deep breath
It is wondrous
The setting evening sun
Makes the colors of my heart everywhere turn clear

*Me no mae ni
Hirogaru sougen
Jitensha goto nekoronde
Shinkokyuu shitara
Fushigi da ne
Hikouki kumo ga
Watashi wo aoku sumikitta kagayaki ni tsureteku

*Here before my eyes
The expansive plain
Lying down with my bicycle
When I take a deep breath
It is wondrous
The plane of the clouds
Takes me away to the clear blue brilliance
