We saw off the vanishing contrails
It was too glaring and I ran away; I was weak at all times
Regretting that I couldn’t stay unchanged since that day
That I couldn’t stay unchanged forever
I let go of your fingers
That bird still can’t fly well
But it’ll learn of cutting through the wind someday
An unreachable place still exists afar
Keeping my wish only to myself, I gaze at it
Children walk on the railroad tracks in summer
Exposing their bare feet to the blowing wind
I put my childhood days into the distance
I put the hope that takes off into my hands
The vanishing contrails stay unchanged forever
Since that 일 when we chased and chased it and overcame this hill
So that it’ll readily be there for us
We’re able to protect the sea-godlike strength, certainly
The windmill’s blades that spin in that sky
Dream the same dream forever
I’m always gazing at the unreachable place
I kept my wish, the bird’s dream, to myself
When I look back, even if the cumulonimbus clouds
Concealing the sunburned railroad tracks change their shape
Please let us remember
The yesterday that the seasons left behind
We chased and chased the vanishing contrails
And we burst into laughter at the too-early sign, forever
For our gazes to aim straight ahead
Even if it’s soaked in sweat, I won’t let go of your hand, always
We saw off the vanishing contrails
It was too glaring and I ran away; I was weak at all times
Regretting that I couldn’t stay unchanged since that day
That I couldn’t stay unchanged forever
I let go of your fingers
