Music Review, Lyrics and Translation: Eureka seveN’s 1st ED, Himitsu Kichi
Popularity: 23% [?] Published by tj_han May 31st, 2006 in Music Reviews, Lyrics and TranslationsDue to popular requests (I get like 50 hits a month from google searching for this), I’m posting this. I couldn’t find the Japanese version and it’s hard to translate from romanji so here’s a rough version. I took the lyrics someone on the Nanashi forums posted and then corrected (I hope) some mistakes by ear. Would any kind soul send me the Japanese Kanji version of the lyrics?

Eureka, my Secret Base
It’s quite a good ED song. Back when I was watching the earlier episodes of Eureka, I never skipped this ending. With meaningful lyrics about growing up and acting cool, it’s really fits Renton’s growth in E7. The sweet and earnest vocals of Takadu Kozue are the main emphasis, with background snare drums, keyboard and strings augmenting it.
I’ll even go as far as hosting the song for a while. Please destroy this version after 24 hours.
Himitsu Kichi (Secret Base)
ano koro no chiisana boku ga miageru
When the tiny me from back then looked up
sora wa hontou ni hiro ookatta
The sky was really wide and big
suki na hito wo kono te de
The person I like, with this hand
mamoreru to omoutteita
I thought I would be able to protect
honki de
seriously
doushite seiga nobinai
Why am I not growing
sore ga kuyashikatta
I was frustated by that
wagamama oomada kawaii to kanjiga ishite itanda
I realised I was selfish
zutto
All the way
akirameru koto nante omoi ukabanakatta tadamae wo muiteta
I faced the surfation of thoughts of giving up
demo
but
dekinai koto bakari de
There are so many things I can’t do
hayaku jiyuu ni naritakute
I want to become free quickly
ikura te wo nobashitatte
No matter how I stretch my hand
todoku hazu no nai
I cannot reach
ookina ookina sora
The big big sky
demo boku wa nannimo utagau koto mo naku
But I don’t have anything to doubt
kirei na mirai wo shinjiteta
I believed in the beautiful feature
kuyashii koto ga aru to
There may be frustrating things
korae kirenakatta
But I won’t give up
ookina ookina namida
Big big tears
demo ano toki no boku no me wa naniyori kagayaiteita to omou
But at that time, my eyes shined brighter than anything, I thought
are kara zuibun sei mo nobite
From then I grew quite a bit
yo no naka no koto sukoshi wakatte
I understood more of the times
issho kenmei ga kakko warukute
Doing my best may be uncool
sameta furishite aruiteita yo
I walked around acting cold.

but
Chuuto hanpa na boku ni wa
But the I that gave up halfway
nani hitotsu dekinakatta
Couldn’t do anything.
itsukara ga boku wa kirameku ashita wo shinjite de koto sae wasurete
From when did I forget about believing in a glittering tomorrow
jibun wa mamoru tameni takusan no taisetsuna mono wo kizutsuketeta
To protect myself, I hurt many important things
haru ga tooku maue no sora no mukou ni
Spring is far, towards the sky overhead
naniga aru ga shiritakute
I want to know what’s there
otona ni nattara kanarazu ikundayotte yakusoku shitanda
"When I become an adult, I must go", I promised.

YAY! I am again pleasantly surprised at Eureka 7. The same thing happened with Naruto. My vicious hate for the fans of the show sort of blinded me with rage to how decent a show it was. I stopped watching it at 144, but it was good up to that point, so yeah. I am just getting started with Eureka seveN and there are some things that irk me about it, but over all I am having a good time watching it.
This will be a good ending to loop until I get done doing news updates. LAWL.
To me, Naruto anime ended at ep 45, came alive at ep 101 and died after that never to be revived.
Thanks to Himitsu Kichi I love anime music again. The last anime music that I really loved was from Love Hina and Ghost in the shell S.A.C. and I thought nothing better will come out. But thank god I was wrong. So thank you Eureka 7 ^^
can you do the same for the opening song?
Er no. Days is a horrible song. It’s the worst out of the 4 OPs.
I already did the lyrics translation of the 3rd OP, which is the best. As for the 2nd, Shounen Heart, that’s a possibility.
IDK. I’m in love w/the song Days. I think it’s a bit wrong to say that Days is a “Horrible” song. Sure it isn’t as good as others, but nonetheless it was better than the 3rd. The 3rd seems to be a little too fast for the show and less emotional than Days. A lot of people believe that it just needs to be a good song, but the Japanese highly believe that music shouldn’t only sound good while watching the show, but should also click in the audience’s mind when watching the show. But who cares…it’s just our opinions.
Music is the most (besides religon haha) subjective thing out there. There was one scene where Taiyou no Mannaka e was played as an insert song and it fit completely. Totally touching scene. I can’t remember which though.
Thank you so much for posting this! I love Himitsu Kichi, and not being able to find a translation was frustrating.
hello! i found this page surfing the net about the SECOND song of this splendid 1st eureka seven ED foom tadaka kozue…
AND I CAN’T FIND IT! do you have any information about where i can find the romanji translation of INKO??
may you can help me. u_u
thanks. my e-mail is upto here if you see this message and you have time to respond…
thankd. good bye
I don’t have the song and never heard it so can’t help you there. I am however quite interested. So if the file size of the song isn’t too large, you could always email it to me.
i love this song its the best.i will serach fore the japanese vershon for you.im looking for it to.
Hey um..I dunno who asked this..and yes it’s a bit late, but that song at the end of ep.50 is “Rainbow” by Denki Groove…it’s on the second OST for Eureka seveN
I like this show but I love the ending song! If you had a way for Eureka 7 loves to hear the song on your site, I think it would be a great hit! Just seeing the words and hearing them are two totally different ways of seeing the song~. ^_^
The 4th Opening is the best for me. It’s called Sakura and sung by NIGIRLIS and is an amazing pop song with an operah-like choir voice in between wich give it a great feel.Even the version without vocals is still a spectacular rush.
here you are, the kanji lyrics, taken from the booklet of the Complete Best collection:
あの頃の小さな僕が見上げる 空はほんとうに広かった
好きな人をこの手で 守れると思っていた 本気で
どうして背が伸びない それが悔しかった
わがままをまだかわいいと勘違いしていたんだ ずっと
あきらめることなんて思い浮かばなかった ただ前を向いてた
でも・・・
できないことばかりで 早く自由になりたくて
いくら手を伸ばしたって 届くはずのない 大きな大きな空
でも僕は何にも疑うこともなく キレイな未来を信じてた
悔しいことがあると こらえ切れなかった 大きな大きな涙
でもあのときの僕の目は何より輝いてたと思う
あれから随分背も伸びて 世の中のこと少しわかって
一生懸命がカッコ悪くて 冷めたフリして歩いてたよ
でも・・・
中途半端な僕には 何ひとつできなかった
いつからか僕はきらめく明日を信じてたことさえ忘れて
自分を守るためにたくさんの大切なものを傷つけてた
遥か遠く真上の空の向こうに 何があるか知りたくて
「大人になったら必ず行くんだよ。」って 約束したんだ
いくら手を伸ばしたって 届くはずのない 大きな大きな空
でも僕は何にも疑うこともなく キレイな未来を信じてた
悔しいことがあると こらえ切れなかった 大きな大きな涙
でもあのときの僕の目は何より輝いてたと思う
あの頃の小さな僕が見上げる 空はほんとうに広かった
好きな人をこの手で 守れると思っていた 本気で
Lion: thx! So I guess my translation is more or less correct..
yeah, I’d question some of your english, but you’ve got the basic meaning sussed
I definetly love that song, is just so lovely!!!!!
Believe me, you should try “Inko”, of the same singer, takada kozue, is another beautiful song, similar style.
By the way, do you have a translation of Himitsu kichi???? I WOULD LOVE TO READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Pleaaaasee if you do, mail me, I need it T–T.
Thanks!!!
xoxo
Lilly
Lilly you need to read the post. The translation is there.
Can you put up the lyrics for Sakura? I can’t find them anywhere…T.T
just to say, Naruto, actually ended when naruto and sasuke last fought, the rest are just fillers. If you’re really into it you can tell it isnt masashi whos writing it. but there about to end soon. oh yeah Eureka 7s first ending is BIG but I wish there was a longer version.
This sing really makes paople sad.
And on naruto it is so cool and Gaara is the Coooooolest of all of the paople on naruto.
I wanted to hear the song through my WMP but I couldn’t because the link to the song is broken or something. Could you host is again? I truly love that song! (please reply back to me through email)
Chantelle, the song does work. EXCEPT you cannot hotlink it. So just save as from this page.
Me have the lyric of Niji. Me hope like you. =)

it’s my absolute favorite eureka seven song, and indeed this show’s rock-ocity is skyscraping the universe. o.O i really love the instrumental piece, sprinting spirits- from the second ost.

song end…..
so this is what i came up with so far….
sounds weird huh? its becuase i look up the words and it had multiple defintions… so i used my brain and choose the best ones…
part at the end of the song could go look back and repeat instead of repeat and look back….
please give me your opinion and spur me on…
Very nice so far. Been listening to that ever since the last episode of Eureka 7. I can’t help you, so I’ll just -BEG- for more.
yha all u pple who dont know eureka seven ends at episode 50….. i wuld love 2 see what happens next but i gues they didint have a good deal lol
I was just wondering if anyone knew the name of the song in eureka thats in the first episode in eureka 7 it starts the second we are introduced to renton for the first time. It also plays when we see him ref for the first time and theres a school of skyflish flying by him. Its heavy on the guitar and ive been trying to find it for like forever. Could u please tell me the name of the song thanks.
The song where Renton do the cut back drop turn right??
Its STORYWRITER by SUPERCAR… This song gives a very nice feel to the story, great song. Well actually I got this info reading wikipedia, the stuff they have there is quite good actually… haven’t u search around for anime info in wikipedia?? Or is it a lame thing doing so??
This is what I got when I tried to translate Neji…
《主語なし》て that puts it that is not able to be caught near what kind of I do not understand whether be じ is being observed to can come slowly and take and become こじ gambling
《主語なし》It does not try to be merely that ぼん’ that there is occasionally to repeat is done and buy set じ and rebound a/the that drop without observing from light it wants to run can come slowly and take and make こじ gambling

《主語なし》It does not try to be merely that ぼん’ that there is occasionally to repeat is done and buy set じ and rebound a/the that drop without observing from light it wants to run can come slowly and take and make こじ gambling
Seriously that song has made me want to learn Japanese just so I can understand it.
On the subject of the series ending at episode 50. I firmly believe that this is what the writers wanted from the start. If you constantly have a continuation to a series, it no longers becomes an epic, but just like any other show out there, bogged down in its own monotony. Where they left it off is about as perfect a place as I could think of ending it. To take it any further would risk ruining the story and/or pulling off the most heinous anti-climax possible (ala Full Metal Alchemist…. worst ending, ever).
I like Sands translation, but a I thought it needed a little work- My favorite translator brain power came up with this–
By the story lighter/writer last
that
hand of the heaven
with that pen of love end - -
was opened
simultaneously in the heaven
simultaneously in the hand which is drawn
simultaneously in the open loop light
shining in the picture which
tearing future, voice light-year the surf!!!!
Story lighter/writer love
of the heaven
in that hand
in the last this bud love - - -
light
shining in the picture which is drawn
simultaneously in the open loop
simultaneously in the hand which was opened
simultaneously in the heaven
//wthww
i immensely appreciate all the niji translations that have been posted here. it’s probably the only place on the web with such variety. none of it really makes perfect sense, but that’s probably because the song was originally made by denki groove in 1994 and the producer didn’t take the time to translate it. so it’s basically lost. but it will be uncovered!!! my japanese isn’t very good as i just started studying the language a couple years ago.
wthww’s version seems most likely to be what they are singing. ‘light’, ‘heaven’, ‘opened’, ’shining’… all are words to describe the delicate floaty feeling you get when listening to the song. it describes a rainbow and and a new hope, which is the theme we are left with at the end of episode 50. i’ve watched the episode so many times and embraced the beauty of the music and story. it’s just one of the great things that never fails to make me happy. that’s probably why i love ‘niji’ so much, because it was intelligently made, and not to sound cheesy, but also heals the mind, soul, and body.
wthww’s translation is for Story Writer, not Niji. It’s still pretty good. And to add to the good news, I think I’m almost done translating niji into something more coherent than what I posted earlier.
yay! i’ll be checking back daily for a new rendition of the niji translation! IT WILL BE UNSOLVED! XD
oy… i feel dumb, i meant solved, the translation will be solved.
First off, I guarantee none of this as being what the translation is supposed to be. But this is what I have come up with. I’ve only translated what I can hear in the version I have, which was
Male - Female - Duette
虹 - Niji - Rainbow
[男] - male (vocal)
くりかえす事もたまにある
ぼんやりとただ意味なく
遠く短い光から
水のしずくはねかえる
ゆっくり消える虹みたく
トリコじかけにする
[女] - female (vocal)
ふりかえる事もたまにある
照れながら思い出す
遠くて近いつかめない
どんな色か分からない
ゆっくり消える虹みてて
トリコじかけになる

—————————————
It always seems that every time I see it, I want to watch the rainbow that fades away slowly,
the drop of water from from my imagination, its brief light dimly shining
sometimes makes me want to take a chance
What kind of color is not able to capture me, to not make me remember
my past memories, with sometimes awkward feelings, I don’t know why
watching the rainbow that fades away slowly makes me want to take a chance.
It always seems that every time I see it, I want to watch the rainbow that fades away slowly,

Like I said, I’m not 100% on some of the parts, and I took a little creative license where the words could have become garbled with a literal translation. But This is the general idea behind the song.
Hi guys. Thanks so much for translations. Eureka 7 rocks! Uhm, does anyone know if there will be an OVA to the series? Some say there isn’t going to be one. Some say there is. Anyways, can anyone translate the song called “Sakura” by Nirgilis? It’s the 4th opening song to the series. Thanks for the help. I am currently learning Japanese by reading books because someday, I would like to return the favor of translating for everyone else…
I’ve heard a lot of guesses and maybes about an OVA coming out regarding the aftermath of the series. A lot of people seem to want this to happen. Frankly, I do not.
If you think about it, the ending we received on episode 50 was one of the best endings you could have possibly hoped for out of anything possible. Eureka and Renton are both together and are furthering the advancement of Earth. Axel said that he knew they were coming back, and that’s enough for me. Personally I’d rather let my imagination show me what I think happens afterwards.
What I do not need to see is the one of two ways this could go.
The OVA will either have some sort of rushed emergence of some new main obstacle that Renton and Eureka need to overcome in order to continue their mission. And rush-job plotlines would not fit into this series at all, seeing as it could take an hour and a half’s (3-4 episodes) worth of viewing just for some of our main plots in the series to come around. It would destroy the atmosphere that they spent 50 episodes building up after they’ve already climaxed the series in a very acceptable way.
Or, the OVA will bring about some soert of catastrophic emergence of a major new obstacle far down the road (I’ve heard theories that Dewey’s kids kill Jeurgens and try to continue Dewey’s master-plan like 10 years down the line), causing a lead-in to a new series, which again I would find most unacceptable. Almost everything that needed to be concluded in the series was done so before or on episode 50, the atmosphere was wrapped up and Eureka and Renton emerged as heroes from the chaos. We don’t need to anti-climax the series by pulling a “Dragonball Z/Inuyasha/oh this time I have a more powerful attack/barrier/oneupmanship” piece of crap. And we don’t need to go the route of Full Metal Alchemist, which not only failed to end the series satisfactorily on the final episode, but also managed to release a new movie that ended the series once again… almost as badly as the final episode.
There is only one route that I could see as being an acceptable “conclusion” to the series (If you can’t already tell, I want it done, each new idea/episode/movie will risk them screwing it up badly. This OVA would involve it being a few years down the road, and the present-tense of it would focus around Talho and her kid. She’d eb talking to the kid about how they came to be where they are. And it would basically be a flashback sequence, perhaps with new things added from the original story-line . Maybe they’d show exactly how Eureka was smuggled away from the miltary, how they got the Nirvash (yes I’ve played New Wave, they might be able to pull something out of there). Maybe add some new adventures that everyone experienced. Recap the end. and after all that, leave the viewer wondering “ok, so did Eureka and Renton ever come back?”. Then you hit them with a final sequence perhaps in Bell Forest, or maybe on their own Skyship (which could look a lot like the Swan as a tribute to Charles and Ray), you’d see more grown-up versions of Maeter Maurice and Link coming back from perhaps a reffing trip or maybe they have their own LFO’s now, and they come onto the bridge of the ship or something like that. and there, we get to see the family united; the 3 kids, Eureka and Renton, and you’d even get to see them grown-up, hoping that they’d be able to pull that off acceptably. I don’t want the concepts of their characters ruined.
You [Precise Calibre] are very perceptive. You have my adoration.
Anyways, whatever the case may be (whether there will be a movie/ova or not), I’m still hoping that there will be one. The only reason I want to watch the E7 movie/OVA is that I want to know what happens to the couples; Eureka and Renton; Anemone and Dominic; Holland and Talho; and possibly Moondoggie and Gidget. Yet more specifically, I want to see if either Eureka and Renton or Dominic and Anemone will have kids. This is because I’ve seen a picture of what appears to be a girl with Eureka’s hair color and a Coralian himan that has Eureka’s wings. Also, take note that that the Nirvash’s last words to Renton and Eureka was telling them to further evolve by uniting. Nobody really knows what the Nirvash means by uniting. If it’s just me, I would say that uniting means go and have children. I mean, there’s no other way I can think of. If by uniting simply means being together, haven’t Eureka and Renton done (and still doing) that already?
Of course, all your opinions, thoughts and constructive (not destructive) criticism are welcome.
im sooo sorry guys i have a gf and and alota stuff to do for the past somethings months so translating lyrics came right offa my head…:) yeah im going off to college in a few months and i knew something was bugging me and i figured this was one of the things…

what was that song playing when renton was saving eureka on episode 50
Hi! I was wondering if anyone had romanji lyrics for Takada Kozue’s “Inko?” It was on the Himitsu Kichi single. I’ve been looking everywhere and I can’t find it. I was actually thinking about learning to play it (at least one guitar part since I think it’s a duet.) If anyone has it translated, that would be awesome, too! I’d love to know exactly what it is I’ll be singing
By the way, nice job translating Himitsu Kichi. I love that song, and now that I know it actually does fit in with the story of Eureka 7 (sort of) it’s even better. Thanks!
Gawd what a great show ^^
the only way i got over the show was getting a gf….
if you dont have one get one hahaha
To Jacko - That song was Niji (rainbow), by Denki Groove. The song I posted a few replies back.
Precise Calibre, thank you for your translation. this one actually makes sense!! it relates well to the storyline and current events.
and i was REALLY happy to see it in kanji too!
you’re my hero. ^^
kirei na mirai wo shinjiteta
I believed in the beautiful feature
I believed in the beautiful future ^^’
thx for ur translation anyway ( better than the anime lyrics one )
that is an awsome pick of eureka and this is a great song i love… eureka an renton 4ever
I doubt many people are checking this anymore, but I recently got ahold of the true lyrics for “Niji” by Denki Groove.
My translation was a bit off…. a lot.

Japanese Lyrics: Romaji
Kurikaesu koto mo tama ni aru
bonyari to tada imi naku
tooku mijikai hikari kara
mizu no shizuku hanekaeru
yukkuri kieru niji mitaku
toriko jikake ni suru
Furikaeru koto mo tama ni aru
terenagara omoidasu
tookute chikai tsukamenai
donna iro ka wakaranai
yukkuri niji mitete
toriko jikake ni naru
Kurikaesu koto mo tama ni aru
bonyari to tada imi naku
tooku mijikai hikari kara
mizu no shizuku hanekaeru
yukkuri kieru niji mitaku
toriko jikake ni suru

English Lyrics: Latin Alphabet
There are sometimes things that are repeated
in a daze, with no real meaning
from the distant, short light
a drop of water bounces back
just like a rainbow that slowly disappears
it sets up to enchant you
there are sometimes occasions that you look back upon
you remember as you blush a bit
far yet near, unable to grasp
unable to figure out what kind of color it is
watching the rainbow as it slowly disappears
it was set up and I am enchanted
There are sometimes things that are repeated
in a daze, with no real meaning
from the distant, short light
a drop of water bounces back
just like a rainbow that slowly disappears
it sets up to enchant you
——————————–
Enjoy!
