[edit] Opening version lyrics

Japanese	Romanji	Translation
-	Garasudama hitotsu otosareta Oikakete mou hitotsu okkochita Hitotsu bun no hidamari ni Hitotsu dake nokotteru	One marble fell, immediately followed by another in a patch of sunshine made for one, only one remains
-	Shinzou ga hajimatta toki Iya demo hito ha basho wo toru Ubawarenai you ni Mamoritsudzuketeru	When a person's heart starts beating wildly, they are whisked away to a place, even if they don’t want to, and they stay to protect that place so no one takes it away
-	Yogosazu ni tamottekita Te demo yogorete mieta Kioku wo utagau mae ni Kioku ni utagawareteru	Even hands that you've kept clean will appear dirty, before you have a chance to doubt your memory, your memory will doubt you.
-	Kanarazu bokura wa deau darou Onaji kodou no oto wo Mejirushi ni shite Koko ni iru yo Itsu datte yonderu kara Kutabireta riyuu ga kasanatte yureru toki Umareta imi wo shiru	I'm certain we'll meet one another, our hearts which beat the same will lead us together, because I'm right here always calling out to you, when all the old reasons start to lose their ground, I'll know why I'm alive
-	Kagami nanda bokura tagai ni Sorezoreno KARUMA wo utsusutame no Yogoreta te to te de sawariatte Katachi ga wakaru	It's a mirror, to show us each our individual karma, feeling each other with dirtied hands, we'll figure out the shape.
-	Koko ni iru yo Tashika ni sawareru yo Hitori bun no hidamari ni Bokura wa iru	I'm right here. You can feel me. You know we're together, in a patch of sunshine made for one.
-	Wasurenai de Itsu datte yonderu kara Onaji garasudama no Uchigawa no hou kara Sou sa kanarazu Bokura wa deau darou Shizumeta riyuu ni juujika wo tateru toki Yakusoku wa hatasareru Bokura wa hitotsu ni naru	Don’t forget cause I never stop calling out to you, from within a marble, identical to yours, that's right, I'm certain we'll meet each other. When we raise crosses at the reasons we buried. It will fulfil our promise, we will be one.
