Shining ray

Shining ray is the eighth ending of the One Piece anime sung by the J-pop band Janne da Arc.
==Ending==
The crew is shown separately seeking shelter from the rain in pictures painted-still. Luffy under an archway, Nami and Chopper under the roof of a house (the area above Chopper apparently having gave way and poured water over him), Usopp and Sanji at a local bus stop and Zoro under a staircase. The rain eventually clears and the crew reunite and all run together back to the Going Merry.

Japanese Kanji	Japanese Rōmaji	English Translation
どこに向かって走れば
もっと 素敵な明日に逢える？
舵を取って 胸にしまった
奇跡の地図を広げた	Doko ni mukatte hashireba
Motto suteki na ashita ni aeru?
Kaji o totte mune ni shimatta
Kiseki no chizu o hirogeta	Taking the helm, I spread out the map of miracles I had shut in my heart
And thought, "What course can I set that will lead to a more amazing tomorrow?"
空を目指して 夢を探して
道に迷った時もある
夢じゃなくて 君と出会って
素敵な自分を見つけた	Sora o mezashite yume o sagashite
Michi ni mayotta toki mo aru
Yume ja nakute kimi to deatte
Suteki na jibun o mitsuketa	There were times I lost my way, aiming for the sky and searching for a dream
But it wasn't a dream: I found my amazing self when I met you
小さな勇気から 大きな物手にした
｢願い｣を今こそ ｢誓い｣に変えて	Chiisana yuuki kara ookina mono te ni shita
"Negai" o ima koso "chikai" ni kaete	With a small bit of courage, we attained big things
Right now, change your "wish" into a "vow"

未来の物語を描こう
新しい風にすべての思い乗せて 今…

色んな景色 胸に刻んで
遠くにまで来たけれど
今になって あの答えだけ
まだ 見つけられなくて	Ironna keshiki mune ni kizande
Tooku ni made kita keredo
Ima ni natte ano kotae dake
Mada mitsukerarenakute	Etching the memories of my journey in my heart, I came this far
But even now, I can't find that answer
遠回りでいいから ｢生きる｣意味覚えたい
この光が心照らす限り	Toomawari de ii kara "ikiru" imi oboetai
Kono hikari ga kokoro terasu kagiri	I don't mind taking detours, I just want to learn what it means to live
As long as this light is shining on my heart

===Lyrics===
Can somebody point to
the course I should sail through,
where I can discover a new tomorrow?
I found direction,
a map of perfection
I secretly held in the depths of my heart!
I aim for sky air
and follow my dreams there
although, there were times
I was lost and lonely
I know It's real too,
because when I met you,
you brought out the finest me I can be
And when I overcame my fear,
I gained something so wonderful here
Now the time is at hand for my
wish to be turned to a pledge!
Shining Ray! Find your brand-new way!
We'll sketch out a tale of all
the stories yet to be told!
I fill the sails with all that I'm feeling now
See how the winds are changing!
Shining Ray! Find your brand-new way!
A never-ending journey to be together!
I'm gonna go wherever you
go, my Shining Ray!
