Hurry up!
3.2.1！
Keep it up!
Give me, Give me, more
Living, Living, oh
Keep it up!
Give me, Give me, more
Living, Living, oh
</ab>
| lang="en" | <ab>I've been waiting for this day
since the moment we met
I've been dreaming of this day
since I saw that sparkle
resting in your eyes
We'll walk this broad land
Meeting new faces along the way
And you'll definitely get to find
your very own jewel
Don't forget to save your tracks
All of it!
Hurry up!
Red, blue and green along the way
With some detours through our treasure hunt
Let's put our hands together now,
3.2.1！
"I choose you!"
The curtain rises again today
Yeah, I can feel
my heart going wild
and it won't stop, can't stop
Now I take aim
and launch the blow
that I've honed
Keep it up!
Let's pick out
this fruitful moment
There's no limit to how far we can go
This electrifying feeling
when I'm next to you
Give me more
of this sizzling heat
I'm living
for this tingling
Let's enjoy
every second!
I'm not looking for
Gold or silver or crystal
Newbie? Leader?
It doesn't matter to me
Under the sapphire sky, across the emerald ocean
Let's search for that one-in-a-million
I'll take a pass on the hard stuff
and make my way to what's fun
It's easy, so black and white;
How to battle?
Oh, just ABC to XYZ
I got to meet you
Our paths have finally crossed
Yeah, I can feel
my heart racing;
Is yours racing too?
On brilliant mornings,
and on moonlit nights
let's take everything we've learnt
and clash with all we have
It's on -
there's no stopping me now!
In my dreams
and on this very stage –
"I choose you!"
It's the moment we're been waiting for
Let's keep going,
beyond our thumping heartbeats
Now I take aim
and launch the blow
that I've honed
Keep it up!
Let's pick out
and live in this special moment
There's never a limit when it comes to us
The side of you who's cheeky
And the side of you who's shy
Can say goodbye to keeping your head down low
Now look forward and reach for the future!
This electrifying feeling
when I'm next to you
Give me more
of this sizzling heat
I'm living
for this tingling
Let's enjoy
every second!</ab>

===English Version===
<ab>Having in mind our very first "hi"
It's been in my thoughts, ah
For this day to come light up
The sparkling light inhabiting your eyes
So bright, I watched it arise
"The way's full of unknowns
Walkin' across this land"
And searching far and wide, new encounters expand
Go find it, continue
Get a personal jewel and you
Gotta save what journeys bring you
Then you, then you
Hurry up!
"Red, and blue, and green
The lively colors in the scene"
Treasure hunting, on occasion, we would veer the street
I want a battle to happen between you and me
3.2.1!
Come on out, "I choose ya"
Show has now begun, so get up
Let me, so, let me feel
The beat, the beating heart
Pounding inside, increasing with time
Refined it to develop
"Electric hit
I get it, get it strong"
And now, take aim to start the fight and
Keep it, keep it up!
So pick out, pick out, pick out
Meaningful moments all around as we head up
Let's go, no limit-limit, yo
Billi-billions
Free the, free the core
Jilli-jillions
Give me, give me, more
Here we, here we go
Living, living, oh
Getting, getting all
Fun, electrical
Gold and crystal
Or silver's not what I want now
Newbie? Leader?
Whatever, I don't really mind now
"The sapphire sky
The emerald of the sea, transcend"
To chase the ruby spot, the journey's end
I'll pass all these challenges, I'm on the way
To find the fun, waiting in a town away
So black or white, defining it
"With a battle, we know
How to, so from"
ABC and to XYZ
Finally got to meet you
At long last, I got to meet you
Let me, so let me feel
The beat, the beat is on a roll
Are we both rising hotter?
When morning sun is a glow
And nights of when the moon is afloat
Everything I have gathered in tow
Let's go toe-to-toe
Intense showdown
Nothing will be holding us now
I saw the vision
Dream of this very stage
Come on out, "I choose ya"
The long-awaited moment's here, the show's on
Let's go beyond the heartbeat, in the flow
Inside us echo
Refined it to develop
"Electric hit
I get it, get it strong"
And now, take aim to start the fight and
Keep it, keep it up!
So pick out, pick out, pick out
Meaningful moments all around as we head up
It's always no limit-limit, yo
Oh, you with that arrogant face you show
And you who's shy with an inner glow
"To moments staring down below
Say "bye-bye"
To catch, find it, let's go
Billi-billions
Free the, free the core
Jilli-jillions
Give me, give me, more
Here we, here we go
Living, living, oh
Getting, getting all
Fun, electrical</ab>''
