I usually don't translate song into English, but sometimes they just doesn't sound good in Italian. PRAY is one of those cases.
I like this song so much, and I like its English translation, so I decided it'd be a waste to leave it hidden somewhere in my hard disk. So here we go...

Kanji
肩ならべて　生まれた町の空ながめて　きみといま
想像したより冷たい風に　生きる心地　つかんでる

きみがいる　この幸運　胸がふるえる

つながっている　ひとつの大地の上
どんな涙も　どんな歓喜の声も
耳をすませば　聞こえてくるだろう
今日もどこかで　だれかが　だれかのために祈る

あの鳥からも見えてるだろうか　きみの肩に手をまわした
変わってゆくよ　そっと人知れず　山のかたち　川の流れ

あの人たちは　みんな　元気だろうか

つながっている　ひとつの大地の上
かぞえきれない　人々の日常
希望に湧く町　絶望に泣く友
今日もどこかで　だれかが　だれかのために祈る

I will pray for you

この喜びと感動を　あの人に
その悲しみと痛みを　このボクに
分け与えられる日が　やってくるだろうか
そこで初めて　一歩前に進める

つながっている　ひとつの大地の上
どんな涙も　どんな歓喜の声も
耳をすませば　聞こえてくるだろう
今日もどこかで　だれかが　だれかのために祈る

ほとばしる　この想い　だれかのために
あふれだす　この響き　だれかのために


Romaji

I will pray for you

kono yorokobi to kandō ano hito ni

Translation
shoulder on shoulder, I'll gaze with you at the sky of this newborn town
I'll catch this living sensation, into a wind cooler than I'd imagined

you're here, and this happiness shake my heart

we're connected together over this one vast land
what kind of tears, what kind of joyful voices
if you prick up your ears, than maybe you could hear them
even today, somewhere, someone is praying for someone else's sake

I wonder if that bird, too, saw me surrounding your shoulders
quietly, secretly, mountains's shapes and rivers's streams keep changing

I wonder if all this people, everyone of them, will be okay

we're connected together over this one vast land
countless ordinary days of common people
towns surged from hope, companions who cry in despair
even today, somewhere, someone is praying for someone else's sake

I will pray for you

this joy and emotion are within that person
that sadness and sorrow are within this me
I wonder if I'll face the days that are given to us
so for the first time I can make a step ahead

we're connected together over this one vast land
what kind of tears, what kind of joyful voices
if you prick up your ears, than maybe you could hear them
even today, somewhere, someone is praying for someone else's sake

this feeling wells up for someone's sake
this echoing overflows for someone's sake
