AKB~!
48!
Advance forward! (Got it!)
Don't you dare to halt! (Got it!)
Our aim is that place where the sun rise
Walk on the path of hope!
What blocked this path is a River! River! River!
A stretched-out River!
The fated River! River! River!
An ordeal River!
Throw away all your doubts!
Show your willpower!
Don't hesitate!
Immediately
One step forward! Believe in yourself!
Forward forward!
Go straight ahead!
Cross the river!! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
A dream is always
Looked so far away
Feels like its distance could not be reached
Pick up that stone
Under your foot
And with all your might
Throw it away!
Just before your very eyes
A river is flowing
Broadly, such a great river
Darkly, deeply, even so
The current is fast, even so
Do not be scared, OK?
Do not wander off
That's right, the opposite side is there
So more, believe in yourself
Inside the darkness
Just keep swimming!
Don't turn your head! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
When you extend your hand,
Right there,
Future exists, you see
Don't give up on the thing you can not reach!
The stone that you toss
Is the dream granter
Somehow its falling sound could not be heard
Inside your heart too
A river is flowing
So painful, a river of trial
Maybe it doesn't go smoothly, even so
Sometimes you're almost drown, even so
It's OK to repeat again
Do not give it up
The bank exists just there
Someday your struggle will bring you to it
Get over it!
RIVER!
AH-AH-AH-AH-
Stop telling excuse to yourself!
AH-AH-AH-AH-
Can't do nothing but keep going!
AH-AH-AH-AH-
Gotta keep moving forward!
Keep going keep going keep going
Keep walking on
The path you've decided!
Just before your very eyes
A river is flowing
Broadly, such a great river
Darkly, deeply, even so
The current is fast, even so
Do not be scared, OK?
Do not wander off
That's right, the opposite side is there
So more, believe in yourself
Inside your heart too
A river is flowing
It is, a river of sweat and tears!
Even if you make a failure
Even if it makes you cry
It is OK to start over
Don't say any complaint
Cling onto your dream, yeah
Until the day where your wish come true
Cross the river!
You can do it!
