KANJI *:--☆--:*:--☆:*:--☆--:*:--☆-:

苦しみが立ちはだかる　砦のような日々は

綺麗ごとだけの世界　触れれば怪我をする

それでも追い求める理想の自分を

城門を駆け抜ければあと少しで会える

飛び交う言葉の矢を　避けて橋を渡り

責任の分だけ重い　扉開け

Ah　君は輝くシャンデリア

硝子の涙達が宮殿で僕を待つよ

Ah　二人が会えた瞬間を

素敵な額に収め　さぁ夢の続きを見よう

今でも追い求める理想の事実を

目を背けたくなるのは　君が眩しいから

信じ続ければ　いつか願いは叶う

約束の数だけ　星が輝いて

Ah　夢を叶えるほど傷つく

なのにどうしてこんなに胸が熱くなるのだろう？

Ah　信じる力を信じて

素敵な未来だけを　そう夢の続きを見よう

Ah　君は輝くシャンデリア

硝子の涙達が宮殿で僕を待つよ

Ah　二人が会えた瞬間を

素敵な額に収め　さぁ夢の続きを見よう

もしもまだ見つからないなら

例えばそれは神や人、気持ちでもいいから

Ah　信じる力を信じて

素敵な未来だけを　そう夢の続きを見よう

La La La La…

ROMAJI *:--☆--:*:--☆:*:--☆--:*:--☆-:

Kurushimi ga tachihadakaru toride no youna hibi wa

Kireigoto dake no sekai furereba kega wo suru

Sore de mo oimotomeru risou no jibun wo

Joumon wo kakenukereba ato sukoshi de aeru

Tobikau kotoba no ya wo sakete hashi wo watari

Sekinin no bun dake omoi tobira hirake

Ah kimi wa kagayaku chandelier

Garasu no namidatachi ga kyuuden de boku wo matsu yo

Ah futari ga aeta shunkan wo

Sutekina gaku ni osame saa yume no tsudzuki wo miyou

Ima de mo oimotomeru risou no jijitsu wo

Me wo somuketakunaru no wa kimi ga mabushii kara

Shinjitsuzukereba itsuka negai wa kanau

Yakusoku no kazu dake hoshi ga kagayaite

Ah yume wo kanaeru hodo kizutsuku

Na no ni doushite konna ni mune ga atsukunaru no darou?

Ah shinjiru chikara wo shinjite

Sutekina mirai dake wo sou yume no tsuzuki wo miyou

Ah kimi wa kagayaku chandelier

Garasu no namidatachi ga kyuuden de boku wo matsu yo

Ah futari ga aeta shunkan wo

Sutekina gaku ni osame saa yume no tsudzuki wo miyou

Moshimo mada mitsukaranai nara

Tatoeba sore wa kami ya hito, kimochi demo ii kara

Ah shinjiru chikara wo shinjite

Sutekina mirai dake wo sou yume no tsudzuki wo miyou

La La La La…

ENGLISH *:--☆--:*:--☆:*:--☆--:*:--☆-:

Suffering stands on my way, passing days feel like imprisoning fortress

If I touch this polished* world, I’ll break it

But still I keep pursuing my ideal self

If I run through the palace’s gate, we will meet soon after

I pass the bridge to avoid flying arrows of words

Only responsibility feels heavy on my shoulders, so open the door

Ah, you’re like a shining chandelier

Tears of glass wait for me in the palace

Ah, let’s frame in the picture the moment we have met

And let’s keep watching continuation of our dreams

Still I keep pursuing ideal truth

I want to avert my eyes, because you are so dazzling

If we keep believing, some day our dreams will come true

Stars shine with only the number of promises

Ah, it hurts enough to fulfill my dreams

Even though, why my heart becomes so warm?

Ah, believe in the power of faith

(Believe) in the beautiful future and let’s watch continuation of our dreams

Ah, you’re like a shining chandelier

Tears of glass wait for me in the palace

Ah, let’s frame in the picture the moment we have met

And let’s keep watching continuation of our dreams

If you didn’t find yet

For example your god or person, only feelings are enough

Ah, believe in the power of faith

(Believe) in the beautiful future and let’s watch continuation of our dreams

La La La La…

* Word originally means "polishing, whitewashing, adding final corrections to something", so I decided to translate it as "polished" like shining Versailles' chandeliers are.
