KANJI 

かあかあ　げこげこ
かあかあ　げこげこ
カエルもカラスも帰っていくよ
空は夕焼け　陽が沈む　なんだか淋しい　逢魔が時
湿った風が　髪揺らし　ぼくの背中が丸くなる
そんな時は　あの人思い　胸を張って上を向く
見上げた空には　たからもの　きらきら光るお星さま

きっとどこかであの星を　にこにこ見ている人がいる
きっとどこかで同じ星　きらきら見ている人がいる
にこにこ　にこり
にこにこ　にこり
まんまる月も　笑っているよ
きらきら　きらり
きらきら　きらり
きっと明日は　天気になるよ

TRANSLATION 

Caw, caw! Croak, croak! 

Caw, caw! Croak, croak!

The frog and crow are going home for the day.

The sky is aglow with the setting sun.

It's a little lonely, this twilight time.

A damp wind is playing with my hair and I curl up in a ball.

At times like these, I remember him.

I'll look up with confidence.

The sky above me brings a gift.

Countless bright, twinkling stars.

I'm sure that somewhere people are looking at these stars with a smile on their face.

I'm sure that somewhere people are looking at these stars with a twinkle in their eyes.

Smile, smile, smiles!

Smile, smile, smiles!

Even the full moon is laughing.

Sparkles, sparkles, sparkle!

Sparkles, sparkles, sparkle!

I'm sure we'll have fine weather tomorrow.
