Romaji

Shiroi sakamichi ga sora made tsuzuiteita
Yura yura kagerou ga
Ano ko wo tsutsumu
Dare mo kizukazu tada hitori
Ano ko wa nobotte yuku
Nani mo osorenai soshite maiagaru

Sora ni akogarete sora wo kakete yuku
Ano ko no inochi wa hikoukigumo

Takai ano mado de ano ko wa shinu mae mo
Sora wo miteita no
Ima wa wakaranai
Hoka no hito ni wa wakaranai
Amari ni mo wakasugita to
Tada omou dake keredo shiawase

Sora ni akogarete sora wo kakete yuku
Ano ko no inochi wa hikoukigumo

Sora ni akogarete sora wo kakete yuku
Ano ko no inochi wa hikoukigumo

English

The white slope continued on to the sky
Wavering heat haze envelops her
Unnoticed by anyone, all alone,
She is ascending
She fears nothing, and soars up high

She admires the sky, is dashing through
the sky
Vapour trails are her life

At that high window, even before her
death,
She looked to the sky, and now they don't
understand
Other people don't understand
They only think that
She was too young, but she is happy

She admires the sky, is dashing through
the sky
Vapour trails are her life

She admires the sky, is dashing through
the sky
Vapour trails are her life

Kanji

白い坂道が空まで続いていた
ゆらゆらかげろうが
あの子を包む
誰も気づかず ただひとり
あの子は昇ってゆく
何もおそれない そして舞い上がる

空に憧れて 空をかけてゆく
あの子の命はひこうき雲

高いあの窓で あの子は死ぬ前も
空を見ていたの
今はわからない
ほかの人には わからない
あまりにも若すぎたと
ただ思うだけ けれどしあわせ

空に憧れて 空をかけてゆく
あの子の命はひこうき雲

空に憧れて 空をかけてゆく
あの子の命はひこうき雲

The Wind Rises Argument

Hikoukigumo Lyrics - The Wind Rises belongs to the anime The Wind Rises, take a look at the argument:

Jirou Horikoshi, a man with an unwavering passion for aviation, embarks on a remarkable journey. Despite his regrettable nearsightedness, he sets out to pursue aeronautical engineering at the prestigious Tokyo Imperial University, fueled by a resolute ambition to emulate the legendary Italian aviation pioneer, Giovanni Battista Caproni. Little did he know that his arrival in Japan's capital would coincide with the devastating Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, an event that would serve as a catalyst for unprecedented social unrest and turmoil, ultimately leading to Japan's surrender in World War II. As Jirou traverses the tumultuous years preceding the creation of his groundbreaking Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter aircraft, he finds himself tested in ways he could never have anticipated. His relentless pursuit of his dreams propels him forward, even in the face of profound realizations about his inventions' role in the war and the harsh realities of his personal life. With each passing moment, he grapples with an unanswerable conundrum: how much is he truly willing to sacrifice to attain his awe-inspiring vision?
