The first ending theme song of Bleach - Life is Like a Boat
features mainly on Kuchiki Rukia.
I guess this is the best song for her.
I have found 2 versions of lyrics for this song.

The first version is the original lyric in Japanese writing and English
The other version is the lyric in English with Japanese pronunciation.

Life is Like A Boat - performed by Rie Fu
Kana/Kanji version

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who’s gonna comfort me and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin’ and we can’t escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you thru another day

遠くで息をしてる　透明になったみたい
暗闇に思えたけど　目隠しされてただけ

祈りをささげて　新しい日を待つ
鮮やかに　光る海　その果てまで

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don’t give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

人の心はうつりゆく　抜け出したくなる
つきはまた新しい周期で　舟を連れてく

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I…. can see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I’d feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

旅はまだ続いてく　穏やかな日も
つきはまた新しい周期で　舟を照らし出す

祈りをささげて　新しい日を待つ
鮮やかに　光る海　その果てまで

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

運命の船を漕ぎ
波は次から次へと
私たちを襲うけど
それも素敵な旅ね
どれも素敵な旅ね

Life is Like A Boat - performed by Rie Fu
Pronunciation version

Nobody knows who I really am,
I’ve never felt this empty before.
And if I ever need someone to come along,
Who’s gonna comfort me and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on coming and we can’t escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves will guide you through another day

Tooku de iki wo shiteru
toumei ni natta mitai
Kurayami ni omoeta kedo
mekakushi sareteta dake

Inori wo sasagete
atarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umi
sono hate made ee~

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don’t give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you will follow me and keep me strong

Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yuku
nukedashitaku naru
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki
de mune wo tsureteku

And every time I see your face
The oceans lead out to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
And soon I can’t see the shore

Oh, I can’t see the shore…
When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I’d feel this way toward you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you and keep you strong

Tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku
odayaka na hi mo
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki
de mune wo terashidasu

Inori wo sasagete
atarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umi
sono hate made

And everytime I see your face
The oceans lead out to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
And soon I can’t see the shore

Unmei no fune wo kogi
nami wa tsugi kara tsugi e to
Watashi-tachi wo osou kedo
sore mo suteki na tabi ne
Dore mo suteki na tabi ne…

Here’s another Biography of Kuchiki Rukia 朽木 ルキア
 

Kuchiki Rukia (Bleach) Biography
- by Tsunade
 

Name: Kuchiki Rukia 朽木 ルキア
Age: Ancient
Birthday: January 14
Zodiac: Capricorn
Gender: Female
Height: 144cm (she’s short!)
Weight: 33kg
Occupation: Death God, freelance high school student
Hobbies: Drawing really bad pictures, usually involving rabbits and tanukis.
Talent: Keeping a strand of hair tucked neatly between her eyes at ALL times

Bleach is centered around the story of how a Death God, Kuchiki Rukia, transfered her powers to a human, Kurosaki Ichigo in order to save him from evil monsters called Hollows. Having stripped of her powers, Rukia was unable to return to the Soul Society, where she belongs, and had to live in the human world as a high school girl, forcing Ichigo to assist her in fighting the Hollows.

The ramifications of transferring her Death God powers to a human means committing a crime punishable by death. And soon as she was making herself comfy being a human, she was captured back to Soul Society by her childhood best friend Abarai Renji, and her brother Kuchiki Byakuya. While she waits in the Tower of Penitence for her execution, a few of her high school friends along with Kurosaki Ichigo and a mysterious talking cat embarked on the journey from the living world to the Soul Society to save her.

The most striking feature of Kuchiki Rukia is the strand of hair that falls in the middle of her face. She has a dead serious expression most of the time except when communicating with her classmates, in which she would adopt the sweet high school girl image. Behind the stoic exterior however, is a tender heart which cares for Ichigo. She loves drawing, but really sucks in it.
