I’ve fallen victim to Hallyu in the past few months. This was the first song by KARA that I really liked (I heard the original Korean version over the summer), so I’d like to translate the Japanese version. I left out all of the hallos and catches because they just make the lyrics look messy.
Lupin (Japanese Version) Translation
Sing it with me now, 2010
We bringing new love to the floor
Rocking what’s real la couture
We opening new doors, new show, new world, new control
Can you keep up? Oh!
I can hear your heartbeat
Just accept the fact that it’s game over
If you rush, everything will vanish
Skillfully capture me
It’s mine
This is mine
This is mine
I’ve got the whole world in my hand now. Never back it up, never hesitate
Never hold out your hand
You won’t get many chances
And you’re closer than anyone else, so you can do it!
Repeating “I love you” is pointless
You’re getting closer to the secret
It’s mine
This is mine
This is mine
I’ve got the whole world in my hand now. Never back it up, never hesitate
Never hold out your hand
Be brave and step up, and piece by piece the world will be in your hand
If you’re serious now, start walking. Go a way, oh yeah yeah
I’ve got the whole world in my hand now. Never back it up, never hesitate
Never hold out your hand
