Near the classroom window

Is a carefree, sunny spot

Very little time is left on the spring calendar

During class, if I look around

Though wearing the same school uniform

All of my classmates

Look like adults

With each person’s own future

We start our trip

On each of our backs

Sprout wings

Of our dreams

Each time the cherry blossom petals bloom

Somewhere hope’s bell resounds

With the freedom of tomorrow

We’re given courage

Each time the cherry blossom petals bloom

Somewhere someone is praying

The door to a new world

We open with our own hands

There were times when we fought

Called each other, and cried

Why do those troubled days

Feel so nostalgic?

During the happy or sad times

If we turned back in the distance

No matter when

We were never alone

In the middle of our graduation picture

I smile

The passing season wants to send us off

Good-bye

The petals of these tears go pitter-patter

On these cheeks they come out, flow, and fall

As we look up to the blue sky

And breathe in deeply

The petals of these tears go pitter-patter

Memories of that part make me happy

The stairs to adulthood before our eyes

Together we climb and wave our hands

Each time the cherry blossom petals bloom

Somewhere hope’s bell resounds

With the freedom of tomorrow

We are given courage

Each time the cherry blossom petals bloom

Somewhere someone is praying

The door to a new world

We open with our own hands

The petals of our tears go pitter-patter

Onto these cheeks they come out, flow, and fall

As we look up to the blue sky

And breathe in deeply

The petals of our tears go pitter-patter

The memory of that part makes me happy

The stairs to adulthood before our eyes

Together we climb and wave our hands
