Each meeting, once in a lifetime

Each moment, never again

Each meeting, once in a lifetime

Ichigo ichiye…ye, ye, ye

B - RAP (8bars of 4) (Translation)

Ichigo Ichie         Each meeting, once in a lifetime

Warau kado niwa fuku kitaru       Laughing gate invites happiness

Shiki soku ze ku ku soku ze shiki       Form is emptiness, emptiness is form

Sode suri au mo tasho no en        Sleeve touches each other, relationship

Inu mo arukeba bo ni ataru                  If a dog walks, bump into sticks

C - CHORUS

Ichigo Ichie…Ichigo Ichie

Ichigo Ichie…Ichigo Ichie…ye ye ye!
