Hi everyone, I just finished translated the opening of the PS1 video game Lightning Legend: Daigo no Daibouken, "Shinkirou" (Mirage) by Yurica Nagasawa. The song's energic BGM is pretty fitting for this Fighting game, but as I translated the song, seems like the lyrics absolutely aren't. So...

Hi everyone. I've completed the translation of the Ending Song of the Playstation 1 game Sampaguita (3rd game of the Yarudora series), "Hold on", by Marlene Pena Lim. It's a frikkin' awesome song, fitting for that great game, and I had tons of fun translating it. But there's a single line I'm...

So, I'm translating this song. Help and C&C (Command & Conquer) needed, appreciated and rewarded with real imaginary cookies. =] 見上げた空が闇へと誘われ 今宵また　月の光　閉ざされた The sky to which I raised my eyes was trapped in the darkness Tonight again, the moonlight has been sealed away 誰かが願う　祈りの言葉さえも

If -霊- chan doesn't mind, I'd like to reformat the romaji to fit the translation since some lines are overly long in the translation. New formatting in spoiler. Note: I replaced double spaces with " " to preserve them here, but I'm not sure if this is going to work on your end. ...

I was translating this Asriel song, and I came across this kanji "吟ふ". All the dictionaries I checked said it should be "Gin", but what I hear her sing is something like "Sofayou", which I'm sure is not correct. Then again, I have no idea what she's singing. Can anyone help? The song is by Asriel.

So, this song: Multiple Vocaloids are stated, and there are clearly multiple Vocaloids singing, but I'm not sure if I should include their roles, as stated. Side note: Our songs are still appearing on sweets lyrics, wholesale copying and pasting with no crediting. I don't know, I'm getting...
