Ah... ha ha ah...
Ah... ha ha ah...
Oh my life, blending into this bond,
Becoming one in our feelings,
This heart that sweetens in your memories
Will surely come and reach you,
And will definitely become one with you.
Oh my life, oh my life...
You alone, my love,
Are my heart,
All my memories and dreams are yours.
You are my very soul,
I will call you my god.
From now on... from now on, there is no separation,
From now on, there are no limits for us,
We have become one, we are no longer two.
Forgetting all worries, like a bird,
It will surely fly into the open sky,
And will definitely find pure joy.
Oh my life, oh my life...
Throughout my whole heart,
A brand new dawn has arrived,
A brand new chapter in the story of youth.
It is only the two of us, my love,
There is no one else here.
Growing... mmm...
Like a growing crescent moon,
Held captive by the sweetness of spring,
Like the moment a flower blooms,
Our new dawn has broken.
My heart will reach you,
And your happiness will embrace me.
Oh my life, blending into this bond,
Becoming one in our feelings,
This heart that sweetens in your memories
Will surely come and reach you,
And will definitely become one with you.
Oh my life, oh my life... ah...
