Theme Song / Lyric from
Hayao Miyazaki's 2023 film
The Boy and the Heron
Studio Ghibli -- a fantasy film
The clear sky on the day I was born
was so high, distant, and endless
The day I heard a voice patting me
on the back telling me to go ahead
Faces I met in the seasons,
at time hurting one another
Shine by the light, the shadow
extends as the sky grows further away
I catch the wind and start running, overcoming
the rubble
At the end of this road, someone is waiting for me
Dream of light shining through, at any day of the week
Open the door this moment, like revealing
hidden secrets
Can't hold myself longing for more,
like the spinning globe
The person I loved has gone to somewhere
no one knows
With the usual kind smile as any other day,
still somewhere far away
I take in the rain and start singing, not
minding if seen
This road continues because I wished
it would continue
I dream of meeting again, for ever and ever
I grasped the fragment firmly, so the secret remains
I'll keep longing till the end,
like the spinning globe
It all starts from an innocent wish made long ago
Carrying the loneliness in my heart, I turn the corner
I catch the wind and start running, overcoming
the rubble
At the end of this road, someone is waiting for me
Dream of light shining through, at any day of the week
Open the door this moment, like revealing
hidden secrets
The joy of holding one's hand, the suffering of
losing one
Can't hold myself from picturing,
like the spinning globe
