Yakusoku no Kizuna [English Adaptation Lyrics]

We hold in our hands a promise we cannot forget

An eternity can pass but it won’t disappear

In the sky we are seeking, in the place we are dreaming

Lies the future we are chasing under this bright star held here

All the tears that we shed as these years have passed us by

Fell like stars in a shower that lit up the empty sky

If a wish could come true when you say it three times then

I would want to protect these things and shed tears again

Miracles come through things we can do and say

They are made from effort each day

No matter how dark the sky above grows

There’s a light there, so watch where it goes

Let’s keep pushing on ahead, see where the star’s trail had led

Don’t give up, together we can do our best

And nothing we do is in vain, look up and smile at every test

Because this one moment cannot come again

Do not forget the smiles that we had, even if we are lost and sad

I’m always right by your side if you fall down

No matter what comes we can stand, so come on and take my hand

Our bond shines like the star that casts its light over this town

All the times all alone, I had reached out futilely

All I’d want was a glimpse of your bright smile I could see

Why is it that my chest now contracts as if in pain?

Just a bit, but it feels like I want it to come again

All our friends here mix all our shadows as one

When we gather, our light’s begun

It won’t end if we keep moving on

It’s the melody of our precious song

If we gather here in the night, we can find our path with our light

Together we can find someplace we can go

Now I’m not afraid of the dark, I’m much more stronger than I was

All our tears now gather but won’t overflow

The way we live is something more, something our path now holds in store

No matter what happens I am by your side

Even when we’re caught in pain or suffering once again

Let’s look to the light that our destiny provides…

Let’s keep moving on without pause, never give up due to flaws

Together, we can do everything we can

Nothing’s impossible if we try, within the tears that we all cry

Are the smiles of times that will not come again

I won’t forget how to laugh, even on this painful path

Forever, I will stand by you within reach

Whatever destiny has in store, remember what we have fought for

And look to the future star that shines out here once more

We hold in our hands a promise we cannot forget

An eternity can pass but it won’t disappear

In the sky we are seeking, in the place we are dreaming

Lies the future we are chasing under this bright star held here
