【選んだ道】
THE PATH YOU CHOOSE

人生にはいろいろな道がある
Life has countless paths.

どの道を選んでもいい
自分が納得してるなら
You can choose any path you like
as long as you feel you are learning.

どんなペースで歩いてもいい
自分が心地よいなら
You can walk any way you like
as long as your heart is at ease.

どんなゴールを目指してもいい
自分が心から満足するなら
You can head for any destination you like
as long as you are content with yourself.

他人に用意されたレールを歩いたら
いつか後悔する
If you follow a path someone else has laid out,
one day you will regret it.

まわりに合わせていたら
いつか苦しくなる
If you live to please the people around you,
one day you will end up in pain.

まわりと同じゴールを目指したら
いつかわからなくなる
If you aim for the same goals as the people around you,
one day you will feel lost and adrift.

自分の道は自分で決める
自分を信じて歩けばいい
Decide your own path for yourself.
Believe in yourself and walk on with confidence; that is enough.
