Original Japanese どこまでも遠く　果てしない 銀河へと船をだそう 希望の帆を上げ　風を集めて あの夢の彼方へ 幾千の星達をただ　見上げてるだけじゃ その想い　どこへも届かないさ 今すぐにまっすぐ　明日に向かって 想像以上の未来つかもう スピード上げ　舞い上がれ　空より高く 無限に心の地図　広げて どこまでも遠く　果てしない 銀河へと船をだそう 希望の帆を上げ　風を集めて あの夢の彼方へ 小さな青い地球の上　待っているだけじゃ 奇跡なんて消して起きやしないさ 恐れずに迷わずに　扉を開けて この狭い世界から　飛びだすのさ もっと自由に　宇宙に　願いを描けば 全てはそこから始まる いつの日かきっと輝ける 正座まで飛んで行こう 闇を突き抜けて　光を浴びて ときめきのまま 胸が高鳴る方へ どこまでも遠く　果てしない 銀河へと船をだそう 希望の帆を上げ　風を集めて あの夢の彼方へ いつの日かきっと輝ける 正座まで飛んで行こう 闇を突き抜けて　光を浴びて ときめきのまま 胸が高鳴る方へ

English Translation The endless galaxy, it spreads out far beyond us Let's send our ship out there Raise the sail of hope and catch hold of the wind Off and beyond to that dream There are thousands of stars; and if you're just looking up Your ambition won't reach anywhere Right now, head straight out towards tomorrow Take hold of a future beyond your imagination Speed up, take flight, go higher than the sky Infinitely unfold the map of your spirit The endless galaxy, it spreads out far beyond us Let's send our ship out there Raise the sail of hope and catch hold of the wind Off and beyond to that dream If you're just waiting on this little blue earth Miracles will never happen Without hesitation, without fear, open that door And fly out from this small world If you draw your wish in the universe more freely It all begins from there And someday you can surely shine Let's fly up to the constellation Strike through the darkness and bathe in the light Hang on to this excitement Go toward the direction where your heart beats faster The endless galaxy, it spreads out far beyond us Let's send our ship out there Raise the sail of hope and catch hold of the wind Now is the time to depart And someday you can surely shine Let's fly up to the constellation Strike through the darkness and bathe in the light Hang on to this excitement Go toward the direction where your heart beats faster
