Kusha kusha no atama, zen zen ki ni shinai de
Shabon-dama tobashiteru kimi wa
Kinjo no kodomo ni kono goro ninkimono
Yobisute de koe kakerareru

Nonbiri to iu ka nan na no ka
Shirokujichuu utatane bakari
Subete ni MAI PEESU na kimi ga
Boku wo ichiban wakatteru

Heya ni iru dake de, nani mo nai hi mo
Kimi to nara naze ka shiawase

Kimi no tanjoubi, kotoshi wa doko yukou
Harikitteru boku no koto, mushi shite
Monomane mitai na shinken na kao de
‘Toshi wo toru no wa mou yameru’ to itta

Kami no ke wo kirisugita toki mo
‘PATORISHIA mitai desho?’ nan te
Kujikenai sono zuuzuushisa de
Futari no hoshi wa mawatteru

Kasa wo wasurete ame ni nuretemo
Kimi to nara naze ka shiawase

Bokura wa kitto dare yori mo
Manuke de saikou da yo
Ashita wa motto kyou yori mo
Tanoshii monogatari no naka tsuretette yo

Nonbiri to iu ka nan na no ka
Machiawase mo maru de mamorazu
Tonikaku MAI PEESU na kimi wa
Boku wo ichiban wakatteru
Arinomama wakatteru

Namida koraetata boku no kawari ni
Nakidashite-kureta ano toki kara
Aruki-tzurai hodo kaze no tsuyoi hi mo
Kimi to nara zenbu shiawase
Kimi to nara naze ka shiawase
Futari nara itsumo shiawase
Tsumazuitemo mata oowarai
Kimi to nara zenbu shiawase
Disheveled hair, not a care in the world
You blew away the soap bubbles
You were always the popular one in the neighborhood
The kids yelled out to you like a familiar friend

Carefree? What’s that?
Just napping all day long
You did everything at your own pace
You understand me best

Just sitting in my room, a do-nothing day
If I’m with you, somehow I’m happy

It’s your birthday, where shall we go this year?
I’m excited, you ignore me
And with a mocking, serious face
‘I’ve already stopped growing up’ you said

Even when you cut your hair too short
‘I look like Patricia, don’t you think?’
You’re undaunted, that impudence
Keeps our world spinning

Even if I forget my umbrella and we get drenched in the rain
If I’m with you, somehow I’m happy

More than anybody else, we’re surely
The stupidest and the best
Tomorrow will surely bring
A more delightful story than today

Carefree? What’s that?
You’re always late
Well, you do everything at your own pace
You understand me best
You understand the truth

Ever since that time you cried for me
When I held in my tears
Even on days when it’s so windy I can hardly walk
If I’m with you, I’m so happy
If I’m with you, somehow I’m happy
If we’re together, I’m always happy
Even when I stumble, I’ll laugh loud again
If I’m with you, I’m so happy
