English Translation:
Let’s search for and gather the shards of dreams
Even if we’re sad,
we can probably still find them now,
changing the shape of the brightly turning tomorrow.
Even if we’re sad, let’s feel the sure present.
It’s simpler than it looks, but I can’t tell it all.
I’m always putting what I want to say away in my pocket.
I can’t say things with childlike plainness now.
It’s said that time settles all, but without understanding
I believe in you 24 hours a day
I stare wide-eyed, even at common words
Time is always laughing on its swift feet
Let’s find a present we want to look for more than memories.
If we don’t move, we can’t start.
If we worry, we can’t stop.
I don’t want to be coddled by dreams of this world’s limits.
A maiden’s cheeky wish is left behind as it is.
Love is everything. Our era starts from here.
Like a bird cutting through the sky,
the image dancing in the great sky begins to move
Let’s walk, the road goes on for long, but
it’ll shine like a diamond before we know it.
I believe in you 24 hours a day
I stare wide-eyed, even at common words
Time is always laughing on its swift feet
Let’s find a present we want to look for more than memories.
Let’s search for and gather the shards of dreams
Even if we’re sad,
we can probably still find them now,
changing the shape of the brightly turning tomorrow.
Even if we’re sad, let’s feel the sure present.

I still love watching Inuyasha over and over again, and I really love all the theme songs in this anime. The anime is about the half-demon Inuyasha and an ordinary junior highschool student Kagome and their journey to find the broken pieces of the Shikon no Tama (a jewel of purity and evil once owned by Kikyou, Inuyasha’s beloved), with their friends Shippo, a fox demon, Miroku, a super cute but perverted monk, and a demon exterminator Sango. And finally this is also a journey to find Naraku, an evil demon who was responsible for the misunderstanding between Inuyasha and Kikyou, Miroku’s cursed hand and the deaths of Sango’s family.
I love Sesshoumaru’s character in the story! – he is the half-brother of Inuyasha, and he is a full-demon.
The manga version was written by Takahashi Rumiko.
