Farewell, Haiseiko.
Farewell, Haiseiko.

I'll forget him.
Haiseiko was nothing but a few betting tickets.
Haiseiko was nothing but a memory of just one race.
Haiseiko was nothing but a drama series for three years.
Haiseiko was nothing but a substitution for those vain days.

Nevertheless, even though I try to forget him,
closing my eyes, I can see that race.
I can hear the sound of cheers in those days.
