世界よ笑え

The world's smile .

They always have inspirational lyrics!

何を目指して何を掴むの？　君でいればいい

夢に向かうこと面倒だなんて　嘘だろう
扉はすぐに開けるよ　信じること

たどり着いたこの世界で　本当の生きる意味知るんだ
遠回りで進む方が　誰より強くなれるはずだよ
消し去れる夜も　過去もないから　君らしく今を大切に
明日に又　向かえばいい

その場しのぎで背伸びをしても　君じゃないだろう？
これが僕だと「どうでもいいだろう」　伏せた目　肩でため息
逃げたきた　今までずっと

流れ着いたこの未来で　本当の強さの意味知るんだ
あきらめないでいる方が誰より　輝いてゆけるんだ

不意に痛む　確かな過ちの影に　震えることは無い　明日を見て笑え

たどり着いたその世界で　本当の生きる意味知ったんだ
あきらめないでいる方が　苦しくても　明日に向かいだせるよ
消し去れる夜も過去も無いから　君らしく今を大切に
明日のため　君のために


Translation:

What will you obtain from what you are aiming for?
Just stay the way you are.

You say it's too much trouble to head towards your dreams,
but that's a lie.
The door to them will open soon enough,
just as long as you believe it will.

In this world that we have found ourselves in
We learn the true meaning of life.
Even by taking the longer way,
You should come out stronger than anyone else.
Neither the night nor the past can be wiped away
So cherish the present time the way you want.
There's always tomorrow.

Even if I overexert myself and have to improvise,
you don't understand why.
When I say this is just who I am, you say that doesn't matter
With lowered eyes, as your shoulders move up and down with a deep sigh.
You were always avoiding it all of this time.

In this future that we have been swept towards,
We learn the true meaning of strength.
The ones who never give up trying,
Continue to shine brighter than anyone else.

There is no need to shiver with despair
At the sudden pain brought on from
The shadows of your past mistakes.
Look towards tomorrow with a joyful laugh.

In that world we have found ourselves in
We have learned the true meaning of life.
The ones who never give up trying,
Can always face tomorrow, no matter how painful it may be.
Neither the night nor the past can be wiped away
So cherish the present time the way you want,
For tomorrow, and for yourself.
