Lyrics - Original Japanese Version

Machi ni tsuite anata wa nani o mazu shimasu ka
Boku wa kitto michi yuku hito ni koe o kakeru
Hajimete no machi nara sore ga taisetsu
Suteki na tabi no tame ni

Tsugi ni boku wa mochiron kaimono ni dekakeru
Dekiru kagiri kusuri o takusan te ni ireru
Mezurashii mono nara tonikaku kaou
Suteki na tabi no tame ni

Machi yo (setsu na no yume)
Machi yo (boku ni wa mada)
Machi yo (tabi no tochuu)
Machi yo

Dakedo machi ni tsuku no ga yoru datta baai wa
Boku wa kitto sakaba no doa o akeru darou
Honne de katariau sore ga taisetsu
Suteki na tabi no tame ni

Shin'ya yatto yadoya no beddo ni mogurikomu
Asu no asa wa mou ichido ano shiro o mezasou
Sukoshi tsukareta me o yasumenakute wa
Suteki na tabi no tame ni

Machi yo (setsu na no yume)
Machi yo (boku ni wa mada)
Machi yo (tabi no tochuu)
Machi yo

Lyrics - English Translation

When you arrive in a town, what do you do first?
I'd definitely talk to people walking in the streets
If it's your first time in town, that's important
In order to have a wonderful voyage

Next I'd go shopping, of course
I'd get as much medicine as possible
As for rarities, I'd buy those no matter what
In order to have a wonderful voyage

O town (a momentary dream...)
O town (...I'm still...)
O town (...on my way)
O town

But if I arrived in town at night
I would certainly stop by a pub
To chat openly — that's important
In order to have a wonderful voyage

Finally at midnight I sneak into my bed at the inn
Let's check out that castle again tomorrow morning
You have to rest your tired eyes
In order to have a wonderful voyage

O town (a momentary dream...)
O town (...I'm still...)
O town (...on my way)
O town
