To the skies, to the skies,
Oh, flower which blooms facing the skies,
Overcome the distorts of seasons
And bloom so ever beautifully.
With no looking back, a flower blooms and falls.
So strong and pure is its life that it reminds me of my loved one.
Ah, and yet, the dream he carries on is overly heavy,
Doing nothing but watching over is frustrating, so tonight I'll be praying for him again.
If possible, I want to share your fate.
To the very end, I'll be heading after you to the next day.
To the skies, to the skies,
Oh, dream which spreads out facing the azure skies.
Oh, cherry blossoms at night, glowing in the darkness,
Bloom so ever brightly.
The day we met, I reflexively closed my eyes,
Pierced by the overwhelmingly deep, unwavering severity of your eyes.
Ah, but now, I can return a gaze as fierce as yours,
Because the resolution to go this way with you is carved deeply in my heart.
If this wish can be fulfilled, I want to dedicate my future life to you.
For your sake, I won't hesitate even to throw my life away.
To the skies, to the skies,
I join my hands together, facing the dark skies.
In this world, not yet awaken,
Bloom, oh my wish.
The fragile moon seems just like a scar of the skies.
It makes me tremble with fear,
But I'll close my eyes and chase that fear away.
To the skies, to the skies,
Oh, love which blooms facing the azure skies.
Oh, gently burning cherry blossoms,
Bloom everlastingly.
To the skies, to the skies,
Oh, flower which blooms facing the skies,
Overcome the distorts of seasons
And bloom so ever beautifully.

Sora he sora he
Takaki sora he mukai sakishi hana yo
Toki no jouran sae fumi koete
Sake adeyaka ni
Furimuki mo sezu hana wa saite chiriyuku
Sono ikizama ito tsuyoku
isagiyoku ito oshiki hito ga goto
Aa saredo mo seou yume wa amarini omoku
Tada mimamoru modokashisa kono
mune ni shimaite koyoi mo inoru
Unmei wake haitai moshi yurusareru nara
Asu no tegakari wa sono
senaka tsui no toki made
Sora he sora he
Ruri no sora he mukai hiraku yume yo
Yami ni moesakaru yozakura yo
Sake azayaka ni
Deaishi ano hi mabuta omowazu fuseta
Sono hitomi no ito fukaki
yuruginaki kibishisa ni inukarete
Aa tsuyoki manazashi
ima wa mitsume kaeseru
Waga yuku michi koko ni ari sou
mune ni kakugo wo kizamishi yue ni
Mirai wo sasage masu
moshi kanau no naraba
Inochi nagedasu mo ito
wa nai anata no tame ni
Sora he sora he
Kuraki sora he mukai ryoute awasu
Imada akeyaranu kono sekai
Sake waga negai
Kabosoi tsuki ga marude
sora no kizuato no you de
Futo onoite osore uchikesu
tada me wo tojite
Sora he sora he
Ruri no sora he mukai sakishi koi yo
Sotto moesakaru hizakura yo
Sake tokoshie ni
Sora he sora he
Takaki sora he mukai sakishi hana yo
Toki no jouran sae fumi koete
Sake adeyaka ni
Kanji
空へ　空へ 
高き空へ向かひ咲きし花よ 
季節(とき)の擾乱さへ踏み越へて 
咲け　艶(あで)やかに
振り向きもせず　花は咲ひて散りゆく 
其の生き様　いと強く潔く　愛ほしき人が如
あゝ　されども背負ふ夢はあまりに重く 
ただ見守るもどかしさ　此の胸に藏(しま)ひて今宵も祈る
運命 分け合ひたひ　もし赦されるなら 
明日の手がかりは　其の背中　終(つい)の刻まで
空へ　空へ 
瑠璃の空へ向かひ開く夢よ 
闇に燃え盛る夜桜よ 
咲け　鮮やかに
出逢いしあの日　瞼思わず伏せた 
その瞳の　いと深き揺るぎなき厳しさに射抜かれて
あゝ　強き眼差し　今は見つめ返せる 
吾が往く道　此処に在り　さう胸に　覚悟を刻みしゆゑに
未来を捧げます　もし叶ふのならば 
命投げ出すも厭(いと)はなひ　貴方の為に
空へ　空へ 
昏き空へ向かひ両掌合わす 
未だ明けやらぬ此の世界 
咲け　吾が願ひ
かぼそひ月が　まるで空の傷痕のやうで 
ふと慄いて怖れ打ち消す　ただ目を閉じて
空へ　空へ 
瑠璃の空へ向かひ咲きし戀よ 
そっと燃え盛る火桜よ 
咲け　永遠(とこしへ)に
空へ　空へ 
高き空へ向かひ咲きし花よ 
時代(とき)の擾乱さへ踏み越へて 
咲け　艶(あで)やかに
