朝日をあびた　丘の上の
Asahi o abita oka no ue no
The morning sun rises over the hill

木立にうもれた　古い家
Kotachi ni umoreta furui ie
And the old house nestled in a grove of trees

朝吹く風に　想いたくし
Asafuku kaze ni omoitakushi
The morning breeze brings many memories

今日もまた君は　旗をあげる
Kyou mo mata kimi wa hata o ageru
Today once again I raise these flags


丘の上の君　海の上の僕
Oka no ue no kimi - umi no ue no boku
You on the hill top - me on the sea

君の想いが　届くのならば
Kimi no omoi ga todoku no naraba
If it will bring back memories of you

僕の想いも　届くだろうか
Boku no omoi mo todoku darou ka
It will bring back my memories too, will it not?

[Bridge]

航海の安全を　祈りながら
Koukai no anzen o inori nagara
I pray for a safe voyage

彼方に君は　呼びかける
Kanata ni kimi wa yobikakeru
And call out to you in the great beyond

三つの色の　二つの旗
Mitsu no iro no futatsu no hata
These two flags of three colors

知っているのは　僕とカラスだけ
Shitte iru no wa boku to karasu dake
Only the crows and I know of this


丘の上の君　海の上の僕
Oka no ue no kimi - umi no ue no boku
You on the hill top - me on the sea

君の想いは　風に舞いとび
Kimi no omoi wa kaze ni mai tobi
My memories dance and fly on the breeze

僕の想いは　潮に流れる
Boku no omoi wa shio ni nagareru
And memories of you flow with the tide

[Bridge]

今日もまた君は　旗をあげる
Kyou mo mata kimi wa hata o ageru
Today once again I raise these flags

帰らぬ返事を　待ちながら
Kaeranu henji o machi nagara
And wait for a reply that may never come

今日もまた僕は　返事をする
Kyou mo mata boku wa henji o suru
Today once again I signal

返事がなくとも　君からの
Henji ga nakutomo kimi kara no
Even if there is no reply from you.
