[Romanized:]

Boku wa kimi no tomodachi
Kimi no ai o mamoru patoriotto
Sou da, zutto tooku no shayou kara
Kimi no sugata o mitsuketa yo

Moshimo kimi no kokoro o
Kizutsukeru mono ga aru nara
Sou da, boku no yaketa karada de
Sore o sugu koroshite shimaou

Asobi ni ikou yo isoide ikou
Kimi ga otona ni naru sore made ni
Kono rakugaki mitai na mainichi ga
Toshioita sono toki mo kawarazu ni
Aseta iro ni tsudzuite ikeba ii

Boku wa kimi no tomodachi
Kimi to koe o tsunagu patoriotto
Iki o fuite kageru pachio kara
Kimi no samishii koe o kiku

Zutto kizutsukete kita
Sore shika dekinai patoriotto
Oboresou ni nobiru popura to
Kimi no kanashii uta ga naru

Rarara...

Hinata ni miru yo aoi keiro
Tsumetai omoide ni kawaru made ni
Ano yanda keshi mitai na mainichi o
Eigou kimi wa shirazu ni ite hoshii
Aseta iro ni tsudzuite ikeba ii

Shitteiru no sa itsuka kimi ga
Boku no koto o wasureru koto o
Sore de ii sa boku wa kimi o mamoru tame
Kizu o tsukeru patoriotto sa

Asobi ni ikou yo isoide ikou
Kimi ga otona ni naru sore made ni
Kono rakugaki mitai na mainichi ga
Toshioita sono toki mo kawarazu ni
Aseta iro ni tsudzuite ikeba ii

Osoroshii yoru mo kudaranai asa mo
Subete konagona ni kudakechireba
Ano yousui ga kareta sabaku no naka
Kimi wa hora dareka to aruiteiku
Azayaka na iro de michitarita michi

Boku ga inakunaru toki
Kimi no kokoro ni kizu ga tsukuyou
Sou negatte shimau zeijaku o
Hitotsu dake yurushite hoshii

Boku wa patoriotto sa

[Japanese:]

僕は君の友達
君の愛を守るパトリオット
そうだ、ずっと遠くの斜陽から
君の姿を見つけたよ

もしも君の心を
傷つけるものがあるなら
そうだ、僕の灼けた体で
それをすぐ殺してしまおう

遊びに行こうよ　急いで行こう
君が大人になるそれまでに
この落書きみたいな毎日が
年老いたその時も変わらずに
褪せた色に続いていけばいい

僕は君の友達
君と声を繋ぐパトリオット
息を吹いて陰るパチオから
君の寂しい声を聞く

ずっと傷つけてきた
それしか出来ないパトリオット
溺れそうに伸びるポプラと
君の哀しい歌が鳴る

ラララ

日向に見るよ　青い経路
冷たい思い出に変わるまでに
あの疾んだ芥子みたいな毎日を
永劫君は知らずにいて欲しい
褪せた色に続いていけばいい

知っているのさ　いつか君が
僕のことを忘れることを
それでいいさ　僕は君を守るため
傷をつけるパトリオットさ

遊びに行こうよ　急いで行こう
君が大人になるそれまでに
この落書きみたいな毎日が
年老いたその時も変わらずに
褪せた色に続いていけばいい

恐ろしい夜も下らない朝も
すべて粉々に砕け散れば
あの羊水が涸れた砂漠の中
君はほら　誰かと歩いていく
鮮やかな色で満ち足りた道

僕がいなくなるとき
君の心に傷がつくよう
そう願ってしまう脆弱を
ひとつだけ許して欲しい

僕はパトリオットさ

[English translation:]

I am your friend
A patriot who will protect your love
Yes, from the faraway setting sun
I've seen your figure in the distance

If there's anything at all
That would wound your heart
Yes, with my burnt body
I'll do away with it at once

Let's go play, and let's hurry
Until the time you become an adult
These days are like a scribble
And may they be so even when you're old
Continuing on in faded colors

I am your friend
A patriot forever bound to you
From a patio clouded with breath
I hear your lonely voice

I've always been wounded
As a patriot, that's all I can do
Like a growing poplar drowning
Your sorrowful song resounds

Lalala...

Look to the sun, on blue routes
Until your cold memories change
Those days are like a diseased poppy
And I hope you never have to know them
May you continue on in faded colors

Of course I knew, that someday
You would forget all about me
But that's all right, because I'm a patriot
Who will give himself to protect you

Let's go play, and let's hurry
Until the time you become an adult
These days are like a scribble
And may they be so even when you're old
Continuing on in faded colors

The dreadful nights and worthless mornings
Once they're all smashed to pieces
In that now dried-up desert
You'll be walking along with a partner
On a happy path of vibrant colors

When I'm no longer here
I know it'll wound your heart
And yet I wish for it to be so
But forgive me for my weakness

For I'm a patriot
