| Japanese | Rōmaji | English |
| よみがえれ | Yomigaere | Revive |
| 空と大地が 交差している 今たたずんでるこの世界で |
Sora to daichi ga Kōsa shite iru Ima tatazun deru kono sekai de |
The sky and the earth intersect In the world that is now standing still |
| こんなもんと よぎった 夢は力をなくす |
Kon'na mon to Yogitta toki Yume wa chikara o nakusu |
Passing through this door Dreams lose their power |
| 正義のその奥で夢が息づいてる かさなる力を信じて |
Seigi no sono oku de yume ga ikidzui teru Kasanaru chikara o shinjite |
In the depths of righteousness dreams sigh Believe in the overlapping power |
| let there be light revive a soul |
let there be light revive a soul |
let there be light revive a soul |
