fushichou densetsu (不死鳥伝説/Phoenix Legend), Track 9: DANCING STARSHINE (ダンシング・スターシャイン)

Performed By Yamaguchi Momoe (山口百恵)

Japanese Kanji:

時間を止められる　魔法の鍵
扉を開けたらば　夢の国
あなたと私　メルヘンの世界にもどり
月にうさぎが居なくても　かまわないわ
おとぎ話は　終わりがないの
さあ　踊りましょうよ　二人だけで
星達のをフルオルケストラ
さあ　踊りましょうよ　リズムにのって
いつでも恋はドラマチック
軽やかにあなたと　いつまでも踊っていたいのよ

時間を超えられる　ボタン押すと
未来が突然に飛びだすの
あなたと私　幸福を奇数に賭けて
今日ばかりを信じても　つまらないわ
おとぎ話は　終わりがないの
さあ　踊りましょうよ　一晩中
星たちの歌うバックコーラス
さあ　踊りましょうよ　見つめ合って
生きていることは　ファンタジー
軽やかにあなたと　いつまでも踊っていたいのよ

English Translation:

Time has been stopped,   A magical key
If the door were opened,   A dream land
You and I return to a world of fairy tales
Where even if the moon rabbit1 were missing, it'd make no difference
This fairy tale has no ending
Come, let us dance   Just the two of us
To a full orchestra of stars
Come, let us dance   Join in this rhythm
Love is always dramatic
I want to be dancing lightheartedly with you, forever

Time has passed   Press a button and
Suddenly the future will jump out
You and I bet our happiness on an odd number
It'd be boring if we could only trust in today
This fairy tale has no ending
Come, let us dance   All through the night
To a singing back chorus of stars
Come, let us dance   Gazing in each other's eyes
To be alive is a fantasy
I want to be dancing lightheartedly with you, forever

 

1 "Moon rabbit" refers to a Japanese legend of a rabbit living on the moon, pounding rice cakes.
