哀しい妖精 [Kanashii yousei] [English translation]

How many letters do I have to send to meet you?

How many tears I have to cry for my love to reach you?

I loiter in the journey of a zigzagging love

Ah, please darling, lend me a hand and save me

How much I have to hurt myself to become an adult?

How much I have to stretch out to reach happiness?

I loiter in the journey of a zigzagging love

Ah, darling, teach me the answer

Men are travelers, they just pass by

Just by crossing inside my heart, they disappear

Hey, how many times should I kiss you for you to turn your face?

How many sleepless nights should I count for the morning to come?

Men are travelers, they just pass by

Just by crossing inside my heart, they disappear

Hey, How many winters I have to pass for the spring to come?

Say only an "I like you" and I'll wait for my cheeks to dye

I'll wait for my cheeks to dye
