"Kikoemasu ka...?" Gekijō kanaderu mujīku

Ten ni toki hanate!

"Kikoemasu ka...?" Inochi hajimaru myakudō

Ai wo tsuki agete

Haruka kanata hoshi ga ongaku to natta...ka no hi

Kaze ga kami wo sarau shunkan kimi to boku wa kodō wo uta ni shita

Soshite yume wa hiraku yo

Mita koto nai sekai no hate e...

Yes, just believe kamisama mo shiranai hikari de rekishi wo tsukurou

Gyakkō no shawā mirai terasu

Issho ni tobanai ka?

Just feeling namida de nureta hane omokute habatakenai hi wa Wish

Sono migite ni soeyō boku no chikara mo

Futari de nara tsubasa ni nareru Singing heart

Itsu no hi ni ka wakaru toki ga kuru kara

Zutto...wasurenai

Sono toki ni wa kokoro no aru ga mama ni

Egao...wasurenai

Kitto boku to kimi wa ichiwa no tori no yō ni

Tōi kako mo te to te tsunagi ōzora wo tsuyoku kaketeita nda

Soshite ikiru ima wo

Mita koto nai ashita no saki e

Yes, just believe sen'nen go no kyō mo umare kawatte utaitai

Atatakai yo kono nukumori

Zettai hanasanai

Just feeling unmei nante nai monogatari wa jibun ni aru Jump

Nigedashitaku nattara sora wo miageyō

Yūki koso ga kagayaku ndayo Singing star

Haruka kanata hoshi ga ongaku to natta...ka no hi

Tabun boku wa kimi to deai shinwa no hitotsu no yō ni tsumuida

Nanimo kowakunai yo

Mita koto nai sekai no hate e...

Yes, just believe kamisama mo shiranai hikari de rekishi wo tsukurou

Gyakkō no shawā mirai terasu

Issho ni tobanai ka?

Just feeling namida de nureta hane omokute habatakenai hi wa Wish

Senritsu wa tokeatte shinfonī e to

Futari de nara tsubasa ni nareru Singing heart

Motto takaku taiyō yori mo takaku

「聞こえますか…?」激情奏でるムジーク

天に解き放て!

「聴こえますか…?」イノチ始まる脈動

愛を突き上げて

遥か彼方 星が音楽となった…彼の日

風が髪をさらう瞬間 君と僕はコドウを詩(うた)にした

そして夢は開くよ

見た事ない世界の果てへ…

Yes, just believe 神様も知らない ヒカリで歴史を創ろう

逆光のシャワー 未来照らす

一緒に飛ばないか?

Just feeling 涙で濡れたハネ 重くて羽撃けない日は Wish

その右手に添えよう 僕のチカラも

二人でなら 翼になれる Singing heart

いつの日にか解る時が来るから

ずっと …忘れない

その時には心のあるがままに

笑顔 …忘れない

きっと 僕と君は 一羽の鳥のように

遠い過去も 手と手繋ぎ 大空を強く翔けていたんだ

そして生きる 今を

見た事ない明日の先へ

Yes, just believe 1000年後の今日も 生まれ変わって歌いたい

暖かいよ この温もり

絶対離さない

Just feeling 運命なんてない 物語は自分にある Jump

逃げ出したくなったら 宇宙を見上げよう

勇気こそが輝くんだよ Singing star

遥か彼方 星が音楽となった…彼の日

たぶん僕は君と出会い 神話の一つのように紡いだ

何も怖くないよ

見た事ない世界の果てへ…

Yes, just believe 神様も知らない ヒカリで歴史を創ろう

逆光のシャワー 未来照らす

一緒に飛ばないか?

Just feeling 涙で濡れたハネ 重くて羽撃けない日は Wish

旋律は溶け合って　シンフォニーへと

二人でなら 翼になれる Singing heart

もっと高く 太陽よりも高く

"Can you hear it...?" The dramatic music playing.

Let it sound out toward the sky!

Can you hear it...?" The pulsing heartbeat when a life starts.

Thrust your love into the air

That day, in the distance, when the stars became music

The season when hair sways in the wind, let's you and I make our heartbeats into a song.

With that, our dreams opened

Into a brand new world...

Yes, just believe. Let's make history with a light the likes even God hasn't seen.

A future flooded with light

Won't you fly there with us?

Wings stained with tears of just feeling

When it feels like you can't flap those wings anymore, make a wish

I'll hold that hand and add my strength to yours

When we're together, our singing hearts become wings.

The day when I understand will come, so

I will never... Forget.

And at that time, I will not forget

The way my heart was... When you smiled.

You and I can definitely, as one bird,

Holding hands like long ago,

Make a great leap across the big blue sky

So that's what I'm living for

Toward the light of a brand new day

Yes, just believe, a thousand years later or today, even if I'm reborn or change, I'll still want to sing

This warmth is so gentle

And I'll never let it go.

Just feeling. There's no such thing as fate.

This is my story, so I jump.

If you feel that you want to run away, just look at the stars.

Courage definitely shines bright, a singing star

That day, in the distance, when the stars became music

When I met you, it probably was already woven into legend

I'm not afraid of anything.

Let's go to a brand new world...

Yes, just believe. Let's make history with a light the likes even God hasn't seen.

A future flooded with light

Won't you fly there with us?

Wings stained with tears of just feeling

When it feels like you can't flap those wings anymore, make a wish

Melodies fuse and become a symphony

When we're together, our singing hearts become wings.

Let's go higher, even higher than the Sun.

## Trivia

* This song was later re-recorded to contain the vocals of all Symphogear users (minus Miku and Serena) in the credits of the last episode of *G*, titled "Nijiiro no Flügel". It has since been used as the ending song for the finales of *GX* and *AXZ*.
	+ A re-recording featuring Miku instead of Kanade, titled "Ashita e no Flügel", was used as the ending song for *XV*'s finale.
* The subtitle for *G* — "In the distance, that day, when the star became music" — is taken from the first line of the second verse.
	+ Similarly, the subtitle for *XV* — "Create a history, with the light God could not know," — is based on the first line of the third verse.
* The instrumental remix appears to use the S1 BGM track "Dokomademo, Don'na Mono demo" as a base.
* Ver.Sōyoku no Sirius was originally meant to be released as an 11th track on the first *XDU* character song album, but was pulled from the tracklist just before release. Why this happened is unknown.
* Hibiki and Miku sung this song as a duet in the *Symphogear* manga.
