Translation for MarineAngemon’s character song “Ocean Smile” (オーシャン・スマイル), from the album Digimon Tamers Best Tamers 7: Kenta Kitagawa & MarineAngemon.
“Ocean Smile” (オーシャン・スマイル)
Lyrics: Yuu Matsuki1
Composition: Kaoru Ohkubo
Vocals: MarineAngemon (CV: Ai Iwamura)
Can you hear it? The sound of the waves
is a melody, like a lullaby
The sea wind calms down
Brushing against your cheek, how gentle it is
Do you worry when you think about the future you can’t see?
Even if our dreams are far away, let’s head towards them little by little
Let’s make our smiles as big as our sadness
The brilliance reflected in the water surface
brings pleasant feelings with it, how dazzling
It’ll become happiness for you…an ocean smile
When you fell asleep on the sandy beach
You felt like you could grasp the bundles of clouds
and reached out your small hand
Facing the sky, for as long as you liked
You won’t get anything done with only one person’s limits
But since I’m here with you, the two of us can fight on, isn’t that right?
Let’s be as honest with ourselves as much as we’re in pain
As our tears fall into the sea
They’ll become new kinds of feelings, how thrilling
It’ll become a smile for you…an ocean smile
Let’s make our smiles as big as our sadness
The brilliance reflected in the water surface
brings pleasant feelings with it, how dazzling
It’ll become happiness for you…an ocean smile

Translator's notes
- The official lyrics provide both MarineAngemon’s “pa-pi-pu-pe-po” noises from the actual audio and a “translation” to standard Japanese in parentheses, revealing that the “pa-pi-pu-pe-po” noises are actually the Japanese lyrics with all of the consonants changed to a “p” sound. For the sake of brevity, I’ve translated only the Japanese “translation” portions. [↩]
