Translation of the song Step by Step artist Yumiko Takahashi

臆病だった　yesterday

I was wimpy, yesterday.

思い切り泣きたいよ

I want to cry my heart out.

くじけちゃ駄目だよ

You shouldn't be discouraged.

何時（いつ）でも　一人じゃない

You are not alone.

遠い夢の輝き

Bring back

とり戻しておいでよ

your shining dream in far away.

瞳を閉じればいいのさ

All you need is close your eyes.

心の片隅に

Don't be afraid

傷跡を残しても

to leave a scar in the corner of your heart,

恐れないで今は二人

because now we are two.

あきらめないで　Step by Step

Don't give up, Step by Step.

夢をつかむよ　Your Fight Jump

Grab your dream, Your Fight Jump

いつも君と　明日に向かって

Always with you, aiming for tomorrow.

走り続けて　Step by Step

Keep running, Step by Step.

信じていたい　Your Fight Jump

Keep believing, Your Fight Jump.

空に向けて　叫んでいたい

I want to scream into the sky.

燃えてる　in my heart

Burning in my heart.

風のシューズを履いて

I want to wear the shoes of wind

どこまでも行きたいね

and go further as I can.

失うものなど今なら　何もないさ

I've got nothing to lose now.

淋しさに負けないで

Don't lose to loneliness,

歩きだしてごらんよ

just start walking.

無限の勇気を集めて

Gather your infinite courage.

あふれでる涙も

The tears that overflow

いつの日か振り向けば

will be your treasure,

君の胸の宝物さ

someday when you look back.

うつむかないで　Step by Step

Don't look down, Step by Step

愛が届くよ　Your Fight Jump

Love is coming, Your Fight Jump

どんな時も　背中を見せずに

Don't show your back at any time.

素直になって　Step by Step

Be honest, Step by Step.

感じていたい　Your Fight Jump

Keep feeling, Your Fight Jump.

きっと何か　つかめるのさ

I'm sure I can grab something.

燃えてる　in my heart

Burning in my heart.
