Marude eiga no shuyaku no you

Ichi ni san shii
Nii ni tano shii

Pika-pika mabu shii
Tadaima! Natsuyasumi! Massai chuu!

Santa Kuroosu konai kedo
Otoshidama moraekkonai keredo
Ohina-sama oshiire da kedo
Koinobori oyoide 'nai keredo

Natsuyasumi wa chikyuu de ichiban no ibento na n'da
Taiyou ga kodomo-tachi ni pika-pika no mahou wo kakeru no sa

Kimi ga itsu ka hiraku kokoro no arubamu ni
Kotoshi no natsu no kagayaki wo seebu shite okou

Kodomo-tachi ga achikochi wo takarajima ni kaete shimau no sa

Kimi ga itsu ka deau mirai no kodomo-tachi ni

Minna de o-negai shite miyou Natsu no taiyou ni
"Pika-pika mahou wo tokanaide itsu made mo"

Lyrics (English translation):

Like the lead part of a movie
All of you glitter brightly in the summer

One, two, three, four
Two, two, so fun
Three, two, so happy
Glittering brightly
Right now! In the midst of! Summer vacation!

Santa Claus doesn't come around...
We don't receive otoshidama...
Ohinasama is packed away...
The koinobori aren't swimming...

But!!
Summer vacation is the greatest event on earth
The sun casts a glittering magic on the children

In the photo album in your heart
That you will someday open up
Be sure to save
The radiance of this summer

In the midst of the glittering!

Let's all make a wish to the summer sun:
"Never let the glittering magic melt away"

There's so much homework...
Our bug bites throb and itch...
We get in trouble for playing in the mud...
Sometimes we get upset stomachs...

But!!
During summer vacation we're engrossed in a daily adventure
Children go around making treasure islands everywhere

When you someday meet
The children of the future
Be sure to tell them
The story of this summer

In the midst of the glittering!

To whoever it was, long ago, that invented summer vacation:
We want to give you the "Pokémon Nobel Prize!"

Let's all make a wish to the summer sun:
"Never let the glittering magic melt away"
