TRANSLATION OF THE SONG AI NO KATACHI – MISIA – PORTUGUESE
Now it's time to translate the song ai no katachi into English, sentence by sentence by sentence, word by word, ideogram by ideogram. Remembering that this translation is done literally and may not make much sense in English.
I'm not going to put the romanization in the words I translated, because there's already a romanization under the sentence. In fact we strongly recommend stay away from romanization. If we romanize everything you won't learn Japanese.
Sometimes song lyrics want to convey different ideas in a single word, this makes Japanese music beautiful and romantic. So don't get stuck on literal translation and try to understand details of each word. Music will only make sense if you think like a Japanese.
