lyrics translation. 'mirai no kyoudaitachi e' from Sakura Taisen



'mirai no kyoudaitachi e' is a special song to me. I even included a quotation from the second verse into my speech when I participated in the Japanese language speech contest. I love this song so much that I cannot help crying when I listen to it. so much power and tenderness in the lyrics and the melody is a rare thing to find in modern music. that is why I love 'Sakura Taisen', too. maybe understanding the meaning of the words sung will let this song help someone like it helped me when I was in a terrible condition

Japanese 

(さくら、織姫、アイリス、マリア)
約束しよう私達は
必ず君に出会うだろう

(マリア)
どんなに道に迷っても
希望の光はある
この空がどこまでも続いているかぎり
私達は君を探し出す

(全員)
さあ兄弟達よ
旅に出よう

(さくら、織姫、アイリス、紅蘭
必ずや未来に
(マリア、カンナ、レニ)
未だ見ぬ兄弟がいる
(さくら、織姫、アイリス、紅蘭
私達を
(マリア、カンナ、レニ)
私達を
(全員)
待つ兄弟がいる

約束しよう私達は
必ず君に出会うだろう
だから兄弟よ、目を閉じて
想え 私達を

誰もが道に迷うけど
絶望しては駄目だ
誰でもが輝ける 夢を持っているよ
勇気を出せ、君の道を行け

さあ兄弟達よ
いつか会おう

(さくら)
 熱い心を無くさないで
優しい気持ち無くさないで

(全員)
約束しよう私達は
必ず君に出会うだろう
だから兄弟よ、目を閉じて
想え  私達を
約束しよう私達は
 必ず君に出会うだろう
だから兄弟よ、目を閉じて
想え  私達を

志を高く掲げよ

Translation

(Sakura, Orihime, Iris, Maria)
Let us make a promise –
We will meet with you for sure

(Maria)
Even if you lose your way,
There is the light of hope
As long as this sky is reaching faraway
We will search for you

(All)
Our brothers and sisters,
Let us embark on our journey

(Sakura, Orihime, Iris, Kouran)
Certainly in the future
(Maria, Kanna, Reni)
There are brothers and sister whom we do not know yet
(Sakura, Orihime, Iris, Kouran)
For us
(Maria, Kanna, Reni)
For us
(All)
Those brothers and sisters are waiting

Let us make a promise –
We will meet with you for sure
So, our brothers and sisters, close your eyes
And think of us

Everybody can lose his way
But he should not fall into despair
Everybody can shine, everybody holds a dream
Gather your courage and walk your way

Our brothers and sisters
Let us meet sometime

(Sakura)
Do not lose your passionate heart
Do not lose your kindness

(All)
Let us make a promise –
We will meet with you for sure
So, our brothers and sisters, close your eyes
And think of us
Let us make a promise –
We will meet with you for sure
So, our brothers and sisters, close your eyes
And think of us

Keep your will high
