English translation of lyrics from the Takarazuka production based on the Japanese novel.

Maeda Keiji:
The setting sun vanishes as the days pass
Scattered snowflakes flutter down from the sky
When I reach out to take hold of the white flowers
They melt away
I can never hold them again

When I come to my senses again
I have arrived somewhere I don’t know the name
A new war is beginning
The days passing away; the people leaving me
I want to take them in my arms
No one can catch the white petals floating in the night sky
Defying the night wind they soar into the heights, believing in their will to fight

I am standing in darkness that even the moonlight doesn’t reach
Like a mountain cherry tree standing firm even in the cold
Blooming brilliantly even with no-one to admire it
I will gather my courage to burn through my life
Shining radiantly
If it is fated for us all to die
Then like a pure blossom
I will go through my life beautifully
