[Music] Hong Kong's Character Song- マジ感動☆香港Night!- English Translation

[kottanhime.livejournal.com]

So I translated Hong Kong's Character Song, Maji Kandou ☆ Hong Kong Night!, into English! I tried my best, so please enjoy!


LO-HA-SU! (LOHAS)
Doki! Like, The smell of dim sum
Doki! It's bad, today the directions are bad
Doki! Did you already forget the foot massage?
Doki Doki! The movie of the star I adore like, started, hasn't it?
Exert yourself and it's bad for your body and the earth! LOHAS
I hope the peach buns aren't sold out yet! (Please!)

Like, one million dollars! Seriously, one million dollars!
The night you see the symphony of lights will be the best!!
Will you invite someone to the night of the town worth one million dollars?
Go fast before it closes!

Doki! The parade of the dream country is starting~
Doki Doki! I hear we have "duty-free shops" despite having no taxes
Exert yourself and it's bad for your heart and the earth! LOHAS
The panda is always on my side (Rest assured)

Seriously, give me a break, this feeling of unluckiness 

"Come to think of it, isn't going on like this bad feng shui?"

Perhaps…A doomed WIIISSHH!!

Like, one million dollars! Seriously, one million dollars!
Let's go on a nighttime cruise for an emotional night~
The town with the night worth one million dollars, I'll try and play with YOU!
That's what I was thinking but I'm sleepy so I'll go to bed for the night

"Oh, what are you doing for the Chinese New Year? I'll welcome you here again~"
--
I do hope that's correct. >.< I tried my best everyone!

T/L Notes:
LOHAS: "Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) is a demographic defining a particular market segment related to sustainable living." Yeah.

Thanks to everyone who corrected my (horribly careless) errors! If you spot anymore, please don't hesitate to let me know!

THank you so so much :333 But *raises hand quietly* I think, but I'm not sure, "dim sum" is supposed to be "tea time"... This is amazing though :333

Ah, I'm pretty sure the kanji, 飲茶, refers mostly to dim sum. I get why you'd think tea time, since it's meaning could be interpreted that way, but it's more commonly used to refer to dim sum, I believe. ^^

In Hong Kong, people literally refer to getting dim sum as yum cha - "drink tea", which are the characters you posted. So yum cha IS tea time in Hong Kong, specifically the Chinese tea time. Whereas dim sum is the kind of food you'd get at yum cha.

But I know overseas people refer to the entire affair AS dim sum, so you're still correct there too.
