< Surfing >

 

Though I have little.

 

I lead my life

Enjoy a lot.

 

Determining "It’s okay, it’s okay,"

I leave my body to the powerful waves of the world.

 

When it’s windy

I accompany with the wind.

 

When there are waves

I ride on the waves.

 

Those who are shrunken

Cause of fear of the rough storm.

 

They say they don’t know

What maybe the joy of life.

 

Though I have little

 

I load myself on the waves

Obey to the gust wind.

 

I enjoy my life

As it is fun to break the sea.
