Translation

I lost what was precious over a little thing

the cold ring shined before me

I told you 'all I needed was what we have now', but that wasn't the case

the door that leads to you, vanished without a sound.

the more I pray for your happiness, the more selfish I get.

but still I want to keep you here, that never changes.

when one person's wish comes true, that child is crying

and the door never makes a sound.

I guess I held back a little too long, wanting to be the one person

who could heal you, the one everyone needs

Wishing for your own happiness isn't a selfish act, is it?

If so, I want to hold you close, as tightly as I can.

when my tears have dried, that child is crying

at this rate our earth will never be dry

the more I pray for your happiness, the more selfish I get.

you can't stop me, you never can.

when one person's wish comes true

that child is crying

not everyone's wish can come true at once

the longer the world turns

the more I learn of kindness

I want to hold you once more,

as softly as I can.
