TRANSLATION: Hero

[jenndubya]

As someone who watches the Chou Eiyuusai concerts a lot, I was initially super down on this song when they started using it as their encore because I felt they weren't ending the show on a high note.
Then I actually translated the song.
I kind of really love this song now. I mean, I still think they should stop using this as the encore so that it doesn't get played out like "We Are Brothers" did after four consecutive years. But I get why it's the encore now.

Song: Hero
Artist: Rider Chips & Kamen Rider Girls
Kamen Rider 45th Anniversary Song

Because everyday I'm longing to draw a picture of the future in the sky I wonder how many dreams we saw then were answered? Every time I felt discouraged, I always remembered that hero Those who fight... ...your radiance does not disappear When we go further into the future... ...legends will connect We always want to be stronger than anyone Think about what you can do to protect your loved ones But there are times where I bit my lips at night and I remembered that hero so that I won't lose all by myself Those who fight... ...ask a question to us “Is that your limit?” When your heart is still going No matter how difficult, you cannot lose Possessing a heart is what makes one a hero Then anyone can be the chosen one Everyone is someone's hero ...to those who fight Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　We are the one Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　If you wanna be a HERO Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　We are the one Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　In the name of the HERO Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　We are the one Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　If you wanna be a HERO Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　We are the one Oh Eh Oh Eh Oh　In the name of the HERO
