Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji	Translation
映す四月の季節　砂上の唄消えてゆく 底は暗い果てしない明日さ　出逢う別れ　青い空の元 夏の終わり海と出逢います 流れ消えてゆくなら愛とは何? 届くはずのない太陽に俺は何を望み灰にした 終ることの出来ない俺はまた 砂に消えた君を拾い集める 砂上唄う男は俯いて 声を落とし底には… 空の涙に射たれた　全ての人達　幸せに見えて 俺の左側にもう君は居ない　滲む去年の風 秋の始め　君と出逢います 流す痛みより悲しみの重さ 咲けど散れど花は花に生き 明日に変わる願いを… 君を探した春よ　砂上の海消えてゆく	Utsusu shigatsu no kisetsu　Sajō no uta kiete yuku Soko wa kurai hateshinai asu sa　Deau wakare　Aoi sora no moto Natsu no owari umi to deaimasu Nagare kiete yuku nara ai to wa nani? Todoku hazu no nai taiyō ni ore wa nani o nozomi hai ni shita Owaru koto no dekinai ore wa mata Suna ni kieta kimi o hiroi atsumeru Sajō utau otoko wa utsumuite Koe o otoshi soko ni wa… Sora no namida ni utareta　Subete no hito-tachi　Shiawase ni miete Ore no hidarigawa ni mō kimi wa inai　Nijimu kyonen no kaze Aki no hajime　Kimi to deaimasu Nagasu itami yori kanashimi no omosa Sakedo chiredo hana wa hana ni iki Asu ni kawaru negai o… Kimi o sagashita haru yo　Sajō no umi kiete yuku	In the season, the month of April, the song written on the sand vanishes. At the bottom, it is a dark and endless tomorrow. To meet, to say goodbye under the blue sky. The end of summer, I met the sea. What is love if it just drifts away and it's gone? What did I pray to the sun that I know I I can't reach, and turn it to ashes? I can't seem to end it, so again I pick up the pieces of you that disappeared in the sand. He sings the song written on the sand with his head down, keeping his voice down, and underneath it…… The tears from sky hit me. Everyone looks so happy. You are not here by me on my left side. The breeze is in blur from last year. I met you in early autumn. The weight of sadness more then the weight of the pain. Flowers blooms and flowers fall, but a flower is as it is a flower. But also wish to change by tomorrow. The spring when I looked for you. The sea on the sand disappears.

Trivia

Lyrics

• Although the album booklet comes with an official English translation by Emi Yamada and You Masuda, the translation above was taken from 「我葬の詩」下巻, as it's the same translation, except for one small change:
  • The last line was changed from "The spring when I looked for you the sand of the sea disappears." to "The spring when I looked for you. The sea on the sand disappears."
• On the TV special "Rock Legend #0111 - Dir en grey program 03" in 2003, a scene shows what appear to be alternative lyrics for this song.
