DISCLAIMER: The following translated song has been translated 
accordinly to the number of syllables from the Japanese lyrics in each 
line. The number inparentheses are the number of syllables for that 
specific line. There are a few translated lines that could not match the 
syllable number required due to words that could not be expressed to fit 
the rhythmn of the song and the length of the line. Above all, the 
translation is my interpretation of the meaning of the song (meaning, it is 
not the only right one). If there is an error, please point it out to me. 
Some parts I did not translate literally but figuratively, so pay heed. 
	The Japanese lyrics are in romanized English since I do not have 
the capability to do JIS. The Japanese line will come first followed by the 
English translation and then back again to the Japanese, etc until the end 
of the lyrics.
