The title of the A side translates to ''Song of Love'', so-named because the song expounds on the emotions the Pikmin feel in relation to their involvement in the game, and also their devotion to their given task of helping the game's protagonist, [[Captain Olimar]]. The B side, ''Namida ga Afureta'', translates to ''The Tears Overflowed'', and is phrased more from Olimar's perspective of the Pikmin as well as how he feels about them – which in turn seems difficult for him to express. In this song, the sorrowful space captain deeply regrets never telling the Pikmin that he loved them before departing back to his home planet of [[Hocotate]].

The B side, Namida ga Afureta, translates to The Tears Overflowed, and is phrased more from Olimar's perspective of the Pikmin as well as how he feels about them – which in turn seems difficult for him to express.

The third track is an instrumental version of Ai no Uta.
Ai no Uta is also a music track available in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, played in the Distant Planet stage, along with a French version.
Ai no Uta lyrics
Hiragana
ひっこぬかれて、 あなた だけ に ついて ゆく。
きょう も はこぶ、 たたかう、 ふえる, そして たべられる。
ほったかされて、 また あって なげられて。
でも わたしたち あなた に したがいつくします。
そろそろ あそんじゃおう か な。
そっと でかけて みよう か なあんて。
ああ。。。、 ああ。。。 あの そら に。。。
こい とか、 しながら。。。
いろんな いのち が いきている この ほし で,
きょう も はこぶ、 たたかう、 ふえる、 そして たべられる。
ひっこぬかれて、 あつまって、 とばされて。
でも わたしたち あい して くれ と は いわない よ。
そろそろ あそんじゃおう か な。
もっと がんばって みよう か なあんて。
ああ。。。、 ああ。。。 あの そら に。。。
こい とか、 しながら。。。
ちから あわせて、 たたかって、 たべられて、
でも わたしたち あなた に したがいつくします。
たちむかって、 だまって、 ついてって、
でも わたしたち あい して くれ と は いわない よ。
Romaji
Hikkonukarete, anata dake ni tsuite yuku.
Kyou mo hakobu, tatakau, fueru, soshite taberareru.
Hottakasarete, mata atte nagerarete.
Demo watashitachi anata ni shitagaitsukushimasu.
Sorosoro asonjaou ka na.
Sotto dekakete miyou ka naante.
Aa..., aa... ano sora ni...
Koi toka, shinagara...
Ironna inochi ga ikite iru kono hoshi de,
Kyou mo hakobu, tatakau, fueru, soshite taberareru.
Hikkonukarete, atsumatte, tobasarete.
Demo watashitachi ai shite kure to wa iwanai yo.
Sorosoro asonjaou ka na.
Motto ganbatte miyou ka naante.
Aa..., aa... ano sora ni...
Koi toka, shinagara...
Chikara awasete, tatakatte, taberarete,
Demo watashitachi anata ni shitagaitsukushimasu.
Tachimukatte, damatte, tsuitette,
Demo watashitachi ai shite kure to wa iwanai yo.
Translation
Pulled out again, we'll follow you alone.
Today once again we'll carry, fight, multiply and be consumed.
Left alone again, we'll meet again and be thrown around again.
But we'll follow you forever.
I guess it's time to play.
Maybe we'll go out quietly.
Ah..., ah... falling in love...
Under that sky...
On this planet, where so many life forms live,
Today once again we'll carry, fight, multiply and then be consumed.
Uprooted, we'll gather, and be thrown.
But we won't ask you to love us.
I guess it's time to play.
Maybe we'll try harder.
Ah..., ah... falling in love...
Under that sky...
We'll work together, fight, and be consumed,
But we'll follow you forever.
We'll fight, be silent, and follow you,
But we won't ask you to love us.
French version
Nous sommes les Pikmin,
Venus pour vous aider,
Vos nouveaux amis.
On se multiplie et remplis d'énergie nous combattons vos ennemis.
Sur notre petite étoile étrange...
Peuplée de milliers de créatures souvent hostiles,
Ah..., ah... Nous sommes toujours là.
Nous veillons sur vous comme des anges.
French version translation
We are the Pikmin
We came to help you
(We are) your new friends.
We multiply and full of energy we fight against your enemies.
On our strange little star
Inhabited by thousands of creatures, often hostile.
Ah..., ah... We are always here.
We are watching over you like angels.

Translation
The tears overflowed
The tears overflowed
And I didn't say that I loved you
I'm sorry
The starry sky blurred
The starry sky blurred
And I didn't say that I loved you
I'm sorry
I can come up with complex words
But I don't think that I can even say simple ones
I let out a sigh
I let out a sigh
And I didn't say that I loved you
I'm sorry
Stardust fell
Stardust fell
And I didn't say that I loved you
I'm sorry
I can come up with complex words
But I don't think that I can even say simple ones
The tears overflowed
The tears overflowed
The tears overflowed
The tears overflowed
I'm sorry for
Not saying something like this
