Morning Musume

Translation by Julie Rose

Good shining...

I faced the waves
With my arms folded
Pa pa ya
I faced the waves
And said "I love you"
Pa pa ya
The morning sun is shining
Because the world is spinning
Pa pa ya
The morning sun is smiling
I can't help grinning cheesily, too

My matching t-shirt
Has faded a bit
What else can you expect
If you wear something for a year?

Don't say anything
I'm going to guess what you're thinking
Don't say anything
If I guess right, tell me
Don't say anything
Is it "I could go for some fried noodles right now"?
Don't say anything
I guessed wrong on purpose
Because I'm too embarrassed
To tell you my real guess

I faced into the wind
And hummed a tune
Pa pa ya
I faced into the wind
Humming my favourite tune

I think today I'll stop off
And buy a new t-shirt
I'd like a bright colour
So that I stand out

I won't say anything
It's your turn now
I won't say anything
I'll tell you as soon as you guess right
I won't say anything
Of course it's not something like "How about a big serving?"
I won't say anything
I've had enough! I'm going to sulk now!
After all
Isn't it obvious?

Don't say anything
I'm going to guess what you're thinking
Don't say anything
If I guess right, tell me
I won't say anything
It's your turn now
I won't say anything
I'll tell you as soon as you guess right
It's "I love you"
Pa pa ya pa ya pa pa

The sunset, my lover, my faded t-shirt
The sunset, my lover, a big serving of fried noodles
I love you, I love you...
