Thank you for sharing.
Alexandra is now studying in japan, but she is now back to Laos.

Well, ever wondering what the lyrics is all about? Here is the English translation for you Khonthakhek

Kiroro - Towards The Future
Look! Look at your feet
This is the road you walk
Look! Look ahead of you
That is your future

My mother gave me so much kindness
"Embrace love and walk," she said over and over
At that time I was still immature, I didn't understand her meaning
She held my hand and walked with me
Our dreams are always high in the sky
It's scary that they might not come true, but we still continue to chase them
Because it's our story, we don't want to give up
When I was unsure she held my hand and walked with me

There were times when I hated that kindness
When separated from my mother I couldn't be obedient

Look! Look at your feet
This is the road you walk
Look! Look ahead of you
That is your future

There were times when I hated that kindness
When separated from my mother I couldn't be obedient

Look! Look at your feet
This is the road you walk
Look! Look ahead of you
That is your future
Look! Look at your feet
This is the road you walk
Look! Look ahead of you
That is your future

Turn towards the future
Let's walk slowly

Lyric that you may want to sing along

Hora! Ashimoto wo mitegoran
Kore ga anata no ayumu michi
Hora! Mae wo mitegoran
Are ga anata no mirai

Haha ga kureta takusan no yasashii sa
Ai wo idaite ayume to kurikae****a
Ano toki wa mada osanakute imi nado shiranai
Sonna watashi no te wo nigiri issho ni ayunde kita
Yume wa itsumo sora takaku aru kara
Todo ka nakute kowai ne dakedo oitsudzukeru no
Jibun no SUTO-RI dakara koso akirametakunai
Fuan ni naru to te wo nigiri issho ni ayunde kita

Sono yasashii sa wo toki ni wa iyagari
Hanareta haha e sunao ni narezu

Hora! Ashimoto wo mitegoran
Kore ga anata no ayumu michi
Hora! Mae wo mitegoran
Are ga anata no mirai

Sono yasashii sa wo toki ni wa iyagari
Hanareta haha e sunao ni narezu

Hora! Ashimoto wo mitegoran
Kore ga anata no ayumu michi
Hora! Mae wo mitegoran
Are ga anata no mirai
Hora! Ashimoto wo mitegoran
Kore ga anata no ayumu michi
Hora! Mae wo mitegoran
Are ga anata no mirai

Mirai e mukatte
Yukkuri to aruite yuku
