Lyric

Wishing Upon a Star (kagura version)

Kagura

ふと落とした腕時計の針は

この時を止めてしまった

色んなことを刻みながら前に

進むこと信じてきた

今日君が得た幸せでほんの少し

笑顔でいる君を見ていたいと

僕はそう思うんだ

星に願い祈るよ静かに照らす光

たとえ遠く離れても

心はここにあるから

言葉にできない痛みも

明日を失う怖さも

気づいてしまった僕の心は

小さくなったまま

戦場に幼い少女が

瓦礫の街でうずくまる

太ももには名前と住所を

書き込んだのと微笑む

もしミサイルが落ちてきて

亡くなっても

家族が私だと分かるように

書いたのと言ったんだ

戦いの影に隠れた純粋な心が

名前を刻むことで

失われゆく明日への恐れ

でも強く願うことで

それだけは誰にも奪えない

「いつか笑顔で会えますように」

星に願うから

今日君が得た幸せで

ほんの少し

笑顔でいる君を見ていたいと

僕はそう思うんだ

言葉にできない願い

心にしまい込んで

夜の帳が明けるまで

ひとり願い続ける

静寂を破る声が

遠く震える夜に

一筋の光追いかけ

希望を探す旅

「いつか、平和な日が来ますように」

星に願うから

    Wishing Upon a Star (Music Box Version)

    Kagura

Inspired by the heartbreaking reality of a young girl living in a war zone who wrote her name and address on her body so that she could be identified if the worst should happen, Wish Upon a Star was born as a heartfelt prayer for peace.

Originally written and composed by Japanese singer-songwriter Takahiro Kato, this deeply emotional song is now carried forward by Kagura, passing its message of hope to the next generation.

Through her heartfelt voice, Kagura expresses the longing for a world without war, the love we hold for those precious to us, and the hope for a brighter tomorrow.

Our dream is for this song to reach schools and choirs around the world, bringing people together across borders, languages, and generations to sing for peace.

A small PEACE PROJECT, born from the story of one young girl.

May this prayer reach your heart, wherever you are in the world.
