kanji & kana

    夢が見つからないと
    白けながら生きてる者よ
    それでも時の針は
    嘲笑(あざわら)って
    進んでるんだ
    何もしないで死んでくのか?

    昨日と同じ道
    ただ歩いてるだけじゃ
    どこへ向かうのか
    わからないだろう

    命のへそ
    腹をさあ括れ!
    気合い入れるんだ
    流されるな!
    さあ大地に足をつけて踏んばろう!
    大事なのは
    正面 向くこと
    どんな風も受けるんだ
    逃げ出すなよ
    苦しくても鍛えよう
    生きるための腹筋力

    やりたいこと 一つも
    見つけられず俯く者よ
    おまえのその掌
    空のままで
    宙を切ってる
    願い 掴んでみたくないか?

    すべての成功は
    自分の生き方次第
    どんな言い訳も
    通用しないぜ

    命のへそ
    そっと目を閉じて
    希望 ため込めよ
    あきらめるな!
    今 心を集中してやってみろ!
    間違っても
    失敗しても
    違う景色見えるはず
    トライしろよ
    つらいことに慣れて来る
    人生とはトレーニングだ

    命のへそ
    腹をさあ括れ!
    気合い入れるんだ
    流されるな!
    さあ大地に足をつけて踏んばろう!
    大事なのは
    正面 向くこと
    どんな風も受けるんだ
    逃げ出すなよ
    苦しくても鍛えよう
    生きるための腹筋力

    命のへそは
    自分自身だ
    ぶれずに生きろ!

english translation

    To all the subdued people
    Living without finding your dreams
    The needle of time
    Moves on regardless
    As if scorning us
    Are you going to die without achieving anything?

    Just walking along the same path
    That you walked along yesterday
    You have no idea
    Where to head to, right?

    Life’s bellybutton
    Come, tighten your belly!
    And pour in your spirit
    Don’t sink!
    Come, step on the ground and move out!
    What’s important
    Is facing forward
    Standing up to any wind that blows
    Don’t run away
    Discipline yourself despite the pain
    With the abdominal strength to stay alive

    To all the downcast people
    Who are unable to find even one thing they wish to do
    Your palms
    Remain empty
    Slicing through air
    Don’t you want to grasp your desires?

    All successes are determined
    By how you live your life
    Don’t pass it off
    With any excuses

    Life’s bellybutton
    Close your eyes gently
    Hoard your hope
    Don’t give up!
    Just focus your heart right now!
    Even if you’re wrong
    Even if you fail
    You’ll get to see a different scenery
    Just try
    You’ll get used to pain
    Life is just like training

    Life’s bellybutton
    Come, tighten your belly!
    And pour in your spirit
    Don’t sink!
    Come, step on the ground and move out!
    What’s important
    Is facing forward
    Standing up to any wind that blows
    Don’t run away
    Discipline yourself despite the pain
    With the abdominal strength to stay alive

    Life’s bellybutton
    Is you
    Live without wavering!
