The English Translation of "LEVEL 5-judgelight-" from "A Certain Scientific Railgun"

Resonating wishes now awaken, for the sake of an unyielding future we meet beyond fate, because these feelings shine.

Trying to entrust feelings to a future elsewhere, continually searching for the true meaning of strength.

Understanding the meaning of accepting pain as it is, known to you who continue to run towards tomorrow.

The scenery we pass through is now flowing, feeling the world we've drawn closer to, sensing all signals with our bodies, and now releasing everything.

Just truth in my heart, I'll never hesitate because there are feelings I can't erase, unlocking from the truth without averting my gaze. I'll reach the next stage to realize all.

I've felt your running figure in the distance, when did it start feeling so close to me?

Unable to conceal my anxiety, I looked up at the approaching sky, someday I'll overcome these wounded memories.

Longing awakens abilities now, because there are things I want to protect, scenery passing by fills my heart, only climbing up, pain disappears into the wind.

Believe in Judgelight, piercing even fate, let's create the dawn with these hands, with courage to change and an unwavering heart, I believe myself and precious emotion, shattering with these feelings.

In the light of the beginning, we pledge to judge the endless darkness, no longer fearing the whirlpool of loneliness, no longer turning back.

The scenery we pass through is now flowing, feeling the world we've drawn closer to, sensing all signals with our bodies, and now releasing everything.

Just truth in my heart, I'll never hesitate because there are feelings I can't erase, unlocking from the truth without averting my gaze. I'll reach the next stage to realize all, believing in the strong bond.
