(Lyrics) Sunshine - Sakurai Sho [Kanji/Romaji/Translations]

[amnosxmatsujun]

Both Sho's solo and his supervised song hit me with a sense of nostalgia. "Sunshine" is a mix of "Hey Yeah!" and "Kono mama motto" to me. What do you think? It's a very encouraging song <3

**Translator's Notes:**

1. The lyrics which appear within parentheses is actually not in the kanji transcription found in the album booklet. However, because it is crystal clear what Sho is singing there, I have decided to add it in.

2. My translations are never literal. For lyrics, I listen to a single song countless times before I even bother to sit down and type out the translations because I like to understand the lyrics in context with the music. I want to preserve and convey the ideas and intentions of the words properly. (Fun fact: I take longer to translate lyrics for this reason!)

Important notes:

☆Please do not copy-paste my lyrics transcriptions, romaji, or translations to any other online medium (LJ, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, etc.). If you intend to share a segment of this post elsewhere, please ask me first and let me know how you wish to use it.

☆My translations are not available for retranslating.
