| Ue o muite arukoo | I look up when I walk |
| Namida ga kobore nai yoo ni | So the tears won't fall |
| Omoidasu haru no hi | Remembering those happy spring days |
| Hitoribotchi no yoru | But tonight I'm all alone |
| Ue o muite arukoo | I look up when I walk |
| Nijinda hoshi o kazoete | Counting the stars with tearful eyes |
| Omoidasu natsu no hi | Remembering those happy summer days |
| Hitoribotchi no yoru | But tonight I'm all alone |
| Shiawase wa kumo no ue ni | Happiness lies beyond the clouds |
| Shiawase wa sora no ue ni | Happiness lies above the sky |
| Ue o muite arukoo | I look up when I walk |
| Namida ga kobore nai yoo ni | So the tears won't fall |
| Nakinagara aruku | Though my heart is filled with sorrow |
| Hitoribotchi no yoru | For tonight I'm all alone |
| (whistling) | (whistling) |
| Omoidasu aki no hi | Remembering those happy autumn days |
| Hitoribotchi no yoru | But tonight I'm all alone |
| Kanashimi wa hoshi no kage ni | Sadness hides in the shadow of the stars |
| Kanashimi wa tsuki no kage ni | Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon |
| Ue o muite arukoo | I look up when I walk |
| Namida ga kobore nai yoo ni | So the tears won't fall |
| Nakinagara aruku | Though my heart is filled with sorrow |
| Hitoribotchi no yoru | For tonight I'm all alone |
