憧れで加速する　頑張りが実を結ぶ
まだ僕には眩し過ぎるけれど
もっと速くなりたい　もっと認められたい
このチームの一員として

いつかは僕も立ちたいんだ
情熱を繋ぎあえるスタート台の上に
きっとかなう明日へ

一生懸命これからも！　決意表明です
精一杯うんとストローク　届く日を夢に見て
今日も頑張っています

選ばれる人がいて　涙のむ人もいて
多分僕らはライバルなんだけれど
その分応援する　次こそって思うよ
このチームが好きだから

真剣に取り組める今日を
見ていてくれる存在　心強いんだ
はやく追いつきたいな

僕にだってきっとできる！って　信じていいですか？
昨日よりついガムシャラに　チカラ入っちゃいます
同じ景色が見たくて

一生懸命これからも！　決意表明です
精一杯うんとストローク　届く日を夢に見て
僕にだってきっとできる！って　信じていいですか？
昨日よりついガムシャラに　チカラ入っちゃいます
今日も頑張っています

I get strength from my aspiration and my effort bears fruit
It’s still still too bright for me but
I want to be faster and be acknowledged more
As a member of this team

I also want to stand there one day
On the starting block connecting the passion
I’ll head for the tomorrow when it comes true

This is the declaration of my determination that I’ll do my utmost best
I’ll swim with all my might, dreaming about the day when I reach it
I’ll keep at it today as well

There are people who are chosen and also people who choke back their tears
We are probably rivals but
We cheer for each other and think we’ll make it next time for sure
Because we love our team

I can do my best earnestly today
Because the presence watching over me is reassuring
I want to catch up with him soon

Is it all right to think that I can also do it?
I’ll be even more impulsive and enthusiastic than yesterday
Because I want to see the same scenery

This is the declaration of my determination that I’ll do my utmost best
I’ll swim with all my might, dreaming about the day when I reach it
Is it all right to think that I can also do it?
I’ll be even more impulsive and enthusiastic than yesterday
I’ll keep at it today as well
