A translation commissioned by RahanAkero. Kotonoha is by Mintjam, a band known for a variety of anime and game music.
| 透明な空を振り仰いで | Face upturned towards the cloudless sky |
| 名もなき花ひとつ 雪解けを待つように | A single, nameless flower seems to wait for the melting snow |
| 風は暖かい日差しに | The wind’s gentleness is reflected by the warm sunlight |
| 優しさを映して 春色を滲ませ | Blurred with the colours of spring |
| そっと 微睡みから醒める | It awakens from its soft slumber |
| 心地よい調べに 身を任せるがまま | Allowing its body to explore the sensations |
| 木々から大地へと伝う一滴 | A drop flows down from the trees to the earth |
| 七色 空を染める虹へと | Becoming a rainbow that dyes the sky seven colours |
| 咲き誇る季節に 言葉を残して | Leaving words amidst a season in full bloom |
| 再び生命廻る時まで | Until the circle of life goes round once more |
| 雲は流れ 移ろいゆき | Clouds stream by, changing shape |
| あの日の風景も いつしか色褪せて | The scenery of the day fades unnoticed |
| 恋焦がれた空 誘われ | Invited by the yearning sky |
| 解き放してよ 夢の続きを | The rest of the dream is set free |
| 刹那の宴 輝ける時を知り | An ephemeral feast; knowing its time to shine |
| 永久へと向かう螺旋織り成す | A white petal flutters down in an eternally interwoven spiral, |
| 舞い散る白き花びら 地に還りて | Returning to the earth |
| 再び生命芽吹く時まで | Until the bud of life sprouts once more |
| 透明な空を振り仰いで | Face upturned towards the cloudless sky |
| 名もなき花ひとつ 夕凪に揺れる | A single, nameless flower trembles in the evening calm |
