GREEN FOREST GREEN

GREEN FOREST GREEN is the opening and ending theme of Kiniro no Corda 3 AnotherSky feat. Shiseikan. Its melody is roughly based on Gustav Holst's Jupiter, a key composition within this particular entry. The version which plays in the game is sung by the five voice actors of this game's main cast; the variety CD set includes multiple vocal versions. Players can play it as a tournament piece in the Nintendo 3DS port of Kiniro no Corda 3 Full Voice Special.

According to Nakamura's commentary, he was given the inquiry to compose a soothing song to fit Shiseikan's image. He believes he made a song which fits the summer of the game's setting.

An orchestral rendition of this song was performed at the Neoromance 20th Anniversary Concert.

Lyrics
Kanji=
 * 青葉が薫る　深い緑のある城下町（まち）で
 * わきあがる雲追い駆けるように
 * 響きあわせて　ともに過ごす一瞬一瞬が
 * かけがえない時間（とき）なる


 * 思いひとつにして結ばれてゆく絆
 * なにより強く誰よりも君と


 * Forest Green　いつまでも一緒に
 * ずっとそばにいると
 * 笑顔がそこにある幸せが
 * もっと続くように
 * はじめての戸惑い　はじめての切なさ
 * はじめて願ったそのすべてで
 * 君を守りたいから


 * 広く流れる　川がせせらぐこの岸辺（ばしょ）で
 * 陽射しさえも照らし返すように
 * もっと音色が　輝き増しながら高鳴れば
 * 鼓動もまた高鳴るよ


 * 心重なってやっとわかった気持ちは
 * なによりも誰よりもただ逢いたい


 * Forest Green　いつまでも一緒に
 * 探しに行きたいと
 * 目指した約束をもう一度
 * きっと見つけに行く
 * はじめての寂しさ　はじめての愛しさ
 * はじめて感じたそのすべてが
 * 君につながってゆく


 * Forest Green　いつまでも一緒に
 * ずっとそばにいると
 * 笑顔がそこにある幸せが
 * もっと続くように
 * はじめての戸惑い　はじめての切なさ
 * はじめて願ったそのすべてで
 * 君を守りたいから

 * -|English Translation=
 * Every moment I spend with you
 * in this ancient town of rich evergreen
 * rushes by like the wafting clouds
 * They resound within me, becoming irreplaceable dates to me


 * The strings of affection which bound me to this place
 * are tied to no one else but you


 * Let's be together in this Forest Green
 * Always be with me
 * I wish for the happiness found in your smile
 * to never fade away
 * For the first time ever, I would like to know your every wish
 * because I want to protect you from
 * your first doubt and your first woe


 * Near the wide river of the bubbling brook
 * is a glistening shimmer brighter than the sun
 * As a melody plays louder near this radiance
 * I feel my heart racing in my chest


 * The moment I finally realized this precious feeling
 * I realized I wanted to see you and only you


 * Let's be together in this Forest Green
 * As I search for you
 * I know this time we'll achieve
 * the promise we once shared
 * My first pangs of love and its tenderness
 * and anything else I felt upon that moment
 * will guide me to you


 * Let's always be together in this Forest Green
 * I never wish to part from you
 * I'll see to it that your smile
 * never loses its dimples of glee
 * For the first time ever, I wish to know your every desire,
 * your first moment of turmoil, and your first moment of sorrow
 * Because I want to protect you
