I was interested to see that there were some differences in the songs lyrics when compared to the Japanese original, I also wanted to let people understand how this song would sound to Chinese people.

So I translated it. Follow the link for my side by side translations.

I made two translations, the first is a song translation, where I have tried to translate the song as it is sung, making sure the word order and rhythm is not messed up too much. The timing is good enough that you can use these English lyrics to actually sing with.

The second one is a pure translation, where I tried to find the English that best captured the meaning of each line, without worrying about word order or rhythm.

I would like to hear suggestions on any changes I could make.
If you think I have misinterpreted or mistranslated please let me know.
