Translation of the song lyrics True Colors - Angela Aki

True Colors (original)

おなじ いろ に そまれない ぼく わ ひとり いつも むくち
はてない やみ の しんえん に たって
とほう に くれる とき も ある
Can you see my true colors shining through?
あり の まま の ぼく で いい の か
といかけても こころ の なか
いろあせた じぶん の こえ が こだましてる
おなじ いろ に そまらない きみ わ なぜ か いつも えがお だ
いたみ が わかる ひと の やさしさ で
ぼく に そっと つぶやいた
I see your true colors shining through
あり の まま の きみ が すき だ よ
おそれずに うえ を むいて
きみ だけ の かのうせい が ひかっている
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow
Oh-oh, mmm
In a world full of people, you can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you makes you feel so small
なみだ わ みらい の ほうせき だから
ないたぶん だけ かち が ある
I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors and that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, your true colors are beautiful
I see your true colors shining through
あり の まま の きみ で いい から
おそれずに うえ を むいて
あした の きみ だけ の かのうせい が ひかっている
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow

True Colors (translation)

I'm the only one who doesn't get the same color
Standing in the Endless Darkness
There are times when it comes to me
Can you see my true colors shining through?
Is it okay for me to be who I am
Even if I say that, in my heart
My faded voice echoes
For some reason, you always look the same
With the kindness of a person who understands pain
softly muttered to me
I see your true colors shining through
I like you as you are
Face up without fear
Your own love is shining
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow
Oh-oh, mmm
In a world full of people, you can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you makes you feel so small
Because it's the tears of the future
maybe not
I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, your true colors are beautiful
I see your true colors shining through
I'm fine with you being who you are
Face up without fear
Tomorrow's love only for you is shining
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow
Like a rainbow
