The Moment is Beautiful

I realized1, the moment is beautiful
I realized, now or never I want to remember this moment
I keep breathing, I'm filled with vigor
I realized it's a fortune my heart keeps pounding
If I always expect something new, I'll never have a chance to live this life!
 
Today I'm not going to sing about broken hearts
Nor about the moments I wasted for useless hopes
Today I'm not going to sing about tears of sadness
I see my happiness here now, and it's vigorous
 
Every soul is beautiful
The melody of winter or summer is beautiful
And sing along if you feel this happiness
Sing there or over there, here or wherever it is
 
The moment is beautiful, but where is it, where is it
The moment is beautiful, and where I am, that's where it is
In the swing sets, baby carriages, nurseries too, that's where it is
In families, gangs, schools too, that's where it is
In hurries, night shifts, everyday life too, that's where it is
In castles, bingos, parks too, that's where it is
In Ferris wheels, trains too, that's where it is
The moment is beautiful, and where you are, that's where it is
 
I realized, the moment is beautiful
I realized, now or never I want to remember this moment
 
  • 1. I had some trouble with this part. I would even go as far as to say the full meaning is something like "I was lucky/privileged enough to come into this realization", and my English proved lacking to fully express this without making the lines too long.
