Lyrics[]
- 雲が風に吹かれるまゝに 進む如く
- 俺も時勢（とき）の動き見据えて此処まで来た
- 時代と言う名の河 せき止められない
- 人は笹舟が如（ごと） 其れは是非もない
- されども
- 一生にただ一度（ひとたび）くらいは
- 風に逆らい行（ゆ）くも悪くない
- 遠き日見つめた あの方のように
- ひたすら
- 友よ お前と夢の続きを
- 見たく願うが一つの答え
- 己（おのれ）の心が 誘（いざな）うのならば
- 違いて行こう 潔く
- 全て何もかも移ろうが 世の理（ことわり）
- 永久（とわ）に 留（とど）まり続くものは此の世に無い
- 人も 天下もやがて 変わりゆく定め
- 月が欠けてゆく如（ごと） また満ちるよおうに
- 流れて
- 一生にただ一度（ひとたび）だけは
- 河に逆らう舟に乗るもよい
- 時代が味方につかないとしても
- 迷わず
- 友よ お前の覚悟が戦
- 援けたいとぞ今こそ思う
- 己の役目と信じるがゆえ
- 止まりはしない 揺るぎなく
- 友を支え
- 共に向かえ
- 無理な戦（いくさ）
- それもいいさ
- 命預け
- 進みて行け
- 決めた以上
- 気遣い無用
- ひとすじ
- 一生にただ一度（ひとたび）くらいは
- 風に逆らい行（ゆ）くも悪くない
- 遠き日見つめた あの方のように
- ひたすら
- 友よ お前と夢の続きを
- 見たく願うが一つの答え
- 己（おのれ）の心が 誘（いざな）うのならば
- 違いて行こう 潔く

- The current of time cannot be stopped
- People drift within it like bamboo boats, and I have no place to object
- Even so
- it's not bad to go against the wind
- at least once in life
- towards distant days, like that man once did
- So it is with earnest,
- my friend, that I have found my sole answer
- from the future you and I wished to see
- If your heart is drawn to it,
- then let us part ways like gentleman
- Everything is reflected within this world's universal truth
- Nothing can be constant nor continue forever
- People and even the land are fated to change
- like the moon changing its shape every night
- Ebb away
- It's fine to ride a boat challenging the tide
- at least once in life
- Even if the era is against us,
- have no fear
- My friend, your determination leads to war
- and I now seek to aid you
- As long as you always believe in your faith and duty,
- I will never waver and cannot be stopped
- I support my friend
- and strive to go with him
- It's a hopeless war,
- but that's fine with me
- I offer my life to you
- and advance onwards
- Pay no heed
- to anything besides your verdict
- Sincerely,
- no one can fault the chance to defy the wind
- at least once in their lifetime
- I see better days waiting ahead like he once did
- And so, with earnest,
- my friend, I will follow my answer
- from the future you and I wished to see
- If your heart calls for it,
- let us gracefully part on our separate ways
