ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

SHA LA LA, I know I’ll have it someday
Light in my ephemeral heart, burn softly

My “impulse” is to see you, my “naivety” makes me cry
The fireflies flew into summer’s fire, never to return

Without a word, you left me a kiss
And nodded despite your pain
My life flickered with sadness

SHA LA LA, I know I’ll have it someday
Light in my ephemeral heart, burn softly
SHA LA LA, my love, you can see it too
The dazzling moon that shines softly on tomorrow
Shining bright, so bright

My heart grows heavy as if caught in a gust
I almost lose sight of my memories, but then they gently light up again

I felt like I could touch you if I ran like mad
I’ll reach out my hand as I go
My life flickers with sadness

SHA LA LA, I’ll keep on singing
Light in my trembling heart, burn softly
SHA LA LA, my love, I’ll softly release
All my thoughts of you into the endless sky so you can hear them
Echoing loudly, so loudly

SHA LA LA, someday the fireflies will burn out and disperse
Dream in my fading heart, shine softly
SHA LA LA, my love, don’t you forget me either
Let’s softly offer our wishes to the glittering summer

SHA LA LA, I know I’ll have it someday
Light in my ephemeral heart, burn softly
SHA LA LA, my love, you can see it too
The dazzling moon that softly shines on tomorrow
Shining bright, so bright
