Lyrics
──星願（ほしねがい）
星は願う。
いつかのボクが、今のキミを照らすように。
── Hoshinegai (Starwish)
Even stars make wishes.
May the person I once was gently light the way for who you are now.
++++++++++
(JPN)
【Verse 1】
夏の夜は短夜（みじかよ）
ボクはまだ星座のどこにもいない
流れ星交わした 秘密の約束
織姫も知らないままの祈り
【Pre-Chorus 1】
それは多分、キミのつぶやきかもしれない
キミにとっての「１」が
ボクには 宇宙みたいに響いて
キミの感じている世界は
ほんとに、キミのモノ？
【Chorus 1】
When you wish upon a star,
ねえ、聞かせてよ、そっと
キミが願った歌
There's a light inside your heart,
諦めた夢 隠してる傷
数え切れない間違いだって
──まだ消えてない
あの星灯（ほしあかり）
【Verse 2】
夏の陽は 蝉時雨
どこまでも高い空見上げて
堕ちていくことが怖かった
彦星のように渡る術もなくて
【Pre-Chorus 2】
それは多分、見上げた空の「アオ」かもしれない
キミにとっての「青」が
ボクには「群青」みたいに 映って
キミが見つめてる世界は
いつかのボクのもの？
【Chorus 2】
When you wish upon a star,
ねえ、届いてるよ、ちゃんと
キミが願った歌
Hold the fire, don’t let go,
だから信じて、まっすぐ進め
闇夜を切り裂くように
──塗り潰すんだ
いつか白星
【Bridge】
あぁ…
もう一度 空へ
あぁ…
手を伸ばせば また、瞬く
【Chorus-Last】
When you wish upon a star,
もう、迷わないよ きっと
ボクが願った歌
You can light a brand-new flame
凍りついた日々 ためらいも全部
抱きしめた温もりのように
──また灯る、ほら
あの星灯
──So don’t forget to wish again.
──あの星灯…

【Verse 1】
On a short summer night,
I’m not in any constellation yet.
A shooting star bound our secret promise,
a prayer even Orihime never knew.
【Pre-Chorus 1】
Maybe it was only a whisper from you—
your simple “one”
echoed in me like a universe.
Is the world you’re feeling
truly your own?
【Chorus 1】
When you wish upon a star,
softly, let me hear
the song you wished for.
There’s a light inside your heart,
abandoned dreams, hidden scars,
countless mistakes—
yet the glow is still alive,
that little starlight.
【Verse 2】
Summer sun in cicada rain,
I look up into an endless sky.
Falling was frightening,
with no bridge to cross, unlike Hikoboshi.
【Pre-Chorus 2】
Maybe it was the “blue” you saw above—
your blue
looked like deep ultramarine to me.
Is the world you gaze upon
the one I once called mine?
【Chorus 2】
When you wish upon a star,
hey, it’s reaching me—
the song you wished for.
Hold the fire, don’t let go,
so believe and walk on straight,
as if slashing through the dark.
──Paint it over,
one day, a blank white star.
【Bridge】
Ah…
once more to the sky—
Ah…
reach out, and it flickers again.
【Final Chorus】
When you wish upon a star,
I won’t be lost again, I know—
this is the song I wished for.
You can light a brand-new flame,
days frozen over, every hesitation,
like the warmth you held so close.
──See, it glows again,
that starlight.
──So don’t forget to wish again.
…that starlight.
