meaning song-lyrics
「～たのは」という文型は何という意味？
「の」＝「もの」or「こと」.

「[目指]{めざ}したの」＝「目指したもの」

「の」 is a nominalizer; It nominalizes the preceding verb or adjective.

「目指したの」= "what I/we ran toward" = "my/our destination"

Other examples: 「[赤]{あか}いのがほしい。」= "I want a red one."

「[行]{い}きたいのは[京都]{きょうと}です。」= "Where/The place I want to go to is Kyoto, (not
another town)."
