In a world without love,
You who came as love,
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
Wherever your path leads,
We will follow as your shadow.
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
You who arrived as a child,
You are the brave warrior who cherishes life.
You who arrived as a child,
You are the brave warrior who cherishes life.
In a world without love,
You who came as love,
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
Fall like a seed,
Grow tall with bold pride,
Take control of your life!
So all living beings will praise us,
Hold your head high and rise!
There is no child like you in the whole world,
This is the absolute truth, not a lie,
This is the reality.
You are the true warrior,
The very symbol of honesty.
You are the true warrior,
The very symbol of honesty.
A living portrait that brings life to beauty,
Conquer the world, great warrior!
In a world without love,
You who came as love,
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
Wherever your path leads,
We will follow as your shadow.
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
You who arrived as a child,
You are the brave warrior who cherishes life.
You who arrived as a child,
You are the brave warrior who cherishes life.
In a world without love,
You who came as love,
The one who gave me heaven,
It is you alone.
