歌詞

Are you prepared? Do you know the way?

A kit packed by your hand can save your day

An emergency kit stored in the case by the door

A shelter marked on the town map, an extinguisher checked twice —

These are small things done before, not after

"I recommend you walk the road tonight," said our teacher's voice

There was a boy riding a bicycle toward the hill —

The sudden news, the tsunami coming behind

He knocked on doors, an apartment shaking still:

"Run with me!" — an elderly hand caught in his, entwined

Hand in hand — a town hit by the wave

Is a town held by the people helping each other

Words are power. Words are light

A voice raised in time can save another

The Great East Japan Earthquake — a name we keep on saying

An ordinary morning broken shortly after the bell

A crisis shared brings strangers together, praying —

Support exchanged between the ones who fell

Energetic hands, a personality built for the storm —

The comfort of a nearby light, a blanket kept warm

We are no longer children waiting to be found

We are the ones running toward the sound

Hand in hand — a town hit by the wave

Is a town held by the people helping each other

Words are power. Words are light

A hand reached out in time will reach another

Are you prepared? — We are. We know the way

The road walked tonight will shine someday
