One light of candle

There are people(friends) in hardship who have less than us.
For those people(friends), we sing this song.
 
Cheer up, kids1.
 
Why is the life so this hard?
Who told that the life is beautiful?
After I was born,
The life given me are
Just the hardships which I had to fight back endlessly.
 
Then I always asked myself on the mirror,
"What did I do wrong?"
What did I make wrong,
So you(the life) are keeping doing this only to me? It seems not to be changed.
Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow.
 
However must not do like that.
Don't flop. As the world gives,
Just as what you are given,
Just as what unfair world gives,
If you just take them, everything is going to be as it is.
 
Do you fight? Or do you give up?
Do you surrender to your given destiny?
Don't lower yourself to the world.
Don't be dispirited.
And look at us.
 
When you are exhausted and feel so tired, lean on me
I will always stand beside you
To make you not to think that you are alone,
I will take your hand
 
It's too dark. The road is invisible.
A stick of match and a stick of candle are the only things left on me
What should do with this tiny light of candle?
Will the darkness run away if turn this one candle on?(I don't think it will run away)
 
The glamorous light glows from far away,
(Look at) my movement that is struggling in darkness
(Look at) my wings' flapping which is wanting to fly toward the light there,
But they can't.
 
However, it isn't.
There are lots of changes-
When light up a tiny light of candle.
Because there was another light of candle-
Around me when I thought there were nothing to me,
 
And then I light up the candle, the candle became two,
I found another one with that light,
They became three and four,
And then the darkness had vanished.
 
When you are exhausted and feel so tired, lean on me
I will always stand beside you
To make you not to think that you are alone,
I will take your hand
 
Do you remember? Even without father,
We eventually made it.
That was my story of childhood.
It was true. It was really hard.
 
But I didn't give up at that point.
I didn't give up my dream and courage,
And kept trying,
So I made it up to here.
 
Now I am about to tell you2.
You2 can make it, too.
 
When you are exhausted and feel so tired, lean on me
I will always stand beside you
To make you not to think that you are alone,
I will take your hand
