{English Translation}

The days and nights are forever frozen, the Arctic Circle is vanishing
The silvery thread of the horizon is in front of my eyes
There’s a kind of danger that lies in the hearts of you and me

[That danger] is greedy desire, so shallow
I’m getting ready, right now, to ride a shooting star
[To] toss aside the battered past and head for the tenth planet
[To] migrate to an unknown nebula
[To] forget that my memories call that blue planet “home”
[To forget about] all those other ridiculous human sentiments
The never-satisfied greedy hearts,
The Chicken Littles and their worried hearts,
The consumers and their discouraging hearts,
The warring angels’ benevolent hearts,
[These all] tangle and create the most precious and beautiful planet
But it’s been wiped out from the center of the universe

Arrogant humanity destroys
Mighty civilization crumbles
Where is there a place where love can save everything?
In the end, I have committed crimes
I am forever within this deep sleep
Even if it all falls apart,
We must recover the beauty of our memories

The prophesied end of the world didn’t happen in 1999
We’ve escaped that danger countless times by now
Every smiling face living inside a memory
Becomes one of the countless stars that dot the horizon

As the heavenly bodies spin,
They have spun forth a sense of faith,
And that faith is called love.
