"Hotaru No Hikari" lyrics
(from "Naruto Shippuden")
(English Version)
Sha la la, I know that one day
I'll obtain what I'm reaching out for
This fleeting heart, I'll set it ablaze
And light the darkness with a flame
Thinking of you fills me with longing
How I miss you, my tears are falling
And like the fireflies in the summer
I fade away right into the flames
How could you leave me alone with only
A silent kiss from your burning lips
And with a scorch on my heart
I watched you nod and depart
The life within me flickers and sways
I fear it may fade away
Sha la la, I know that one day
I'll obtain what I'm reaching out for
This fleeting heart, I'll set it ablaze
And light the darkness with a flame
Sha la la, my dear beloved
Do you see it too? Tell me you do
Up in the sky, shining like moonlight
Tomorrow's just within our sight
Let it shine, let it shine ever more bright
In my stormy heart, I had nearly
Let the wind steal all of my memories
But like a candle, when the flame goes out
It's not the end, just light it again
This feeling burns
And it's like my whole world
Is spinning on in a hazy blur
So as I hold out my hand
I hope you'll take it, but when?
The life within me flickers and sways
I fear it may fade away
Sha la la, my heart is singing
I wish this moment would last forever
Within this heart, although it's shivering
A flame is always burning bright
Sha la la, my dear beloved
Is it true, one day I will reach you?
Up in the sky, these feelings of mine
They flicker like the stars that shine
Let them shine, let them shine ever more bright
Sha la la, I know that someday
We'll obtain the future we dream of
The fireflies, though they are fading
Within your heart their light remains
Sha la la, my dear beloved
Don't forget the future still ahead
It's glittering like summer sunshine
Our dreams and wishes piling high
Sha la la, I know that one day
I'll obtain what I'm reaching out for
This fleeting heart, I'll set it ablaze
And light the darkness with a flame
Sha la la, my dear beloved
Do you see it too? Tell me you do
Up in the sky, shining like moonlight
Tomorrow's just within our sight
Let it shine, let it shine ever more bright
I'll obtain what I'm reaching out for
This fleeting heart, I'll set it ablaze
And light the darkness with a flame
Thinking of you fills me with longing
How I miss you, my tears are falling
And like the fireflies in the summer
I fade away right into the flames
How could you leave me alone with only
A silent kiss from your burning lips
And with a scorch on my heart
I watched you nod and depart
The life within me flickers and sways
I fear it may fade away
Sha la la, I know that one day
I'll obtain what I'm reaching out for
This fleeting heart, I'll set it ablaze
And light the darkness with a flame
Sha la la, my dear beloved
Do you see it too? Tell me you do
Up in the sky, shining like moonlight
Tomorrow's just within our sight
Let it shine, let it shine ever more bright
In my stormy heart, I had nearly
Let the wind steal all of my memories
But like a candle, when the flame goes out
It's not the end, just light it again
This feeling burns
And it's like my whole world
Is spinning on in a hazy blur
So as I hold out my hand
I hope you'll take it, but when?
The life within me flickers and sways

Up in the sky, shining like moonlight
Tomorrow's just within our sight
Let it shine, let it shine ever more bright
