One of my hobbies is translating lyrics into English

These are my lyrics for this song. They took me a few months to write, but I'm proud of the result.

To Become Wind

I find that if you only close your eyes,
You’ll find a little song within your heart
And then reach out to touch the great blue skies,
You’ll see that we have never been apart

And try not to despair when I’m not around
‘Cause then it’s really hard to carry on
The starry skies you see while on the ground
Are just like the ones I’m looking upon

Don’t let your heart be darkened by your thoughts
Remember that the world is full of light
I’ll be here with the breezes of the spring
To make sure you are not alone tonight

I’ll come with the wind
So fast and so sure
You’ll know it’s me that’s knocking on your door
And in my suitcase will be memories that
You’ve been waiting for

Lalalalala
I sing a new song
Though we were with each other all along
And now the stormy weather’s led to sunshine
And flowers bloom for us

I find that if you only open your soul
The songs we sing are carried on the breeze
They sail into the sky and make us whole
We hold our hands out high above the trees

I won’t forget that soon you’ll be by my side
I won’t forget the way you help me rise
I won’t forget about the nights I’ve cried
I won’t forget about those starry skies

My heart will not be darkened by my thoughts
I realize that the world is full of light
I’ll be here with the breezes of the spring
To make sure I am not alone tonight

I’ll come with the wind
So fast and so sure
You’ll know it’s me that’s knocking on your door
And in my suitcase will be memories that
You’ve been waiting for

Lalalalala
I sing a new song
Though we were with each other all along
And I will know my prayers are answered when I
Feel your warmth again

-instrumental-

I’ll come with the wind
So fast and so sure
You’ll know it’s me that’s knocking on your door
And in my suitcase will be memories that
You’ve been waiting for

Lalalalala
I sing a new song
Though we were with each other all along
And now the stormy weather’s lead to sunshine
And flowers bloom for us

And I will know my prayers are answered when I
Feel your warmth again

...so, is this a hobby that only I have, or are there others out there that like to do this too?

[Malverne]

I can't say I share this hobby, or anything that produces something this neat. My hobbies mostly have to do with books and the internet, and almost never in another language (unless you count nerd as a language). My brain thinks in English and pictures, and apparently I'd be very good to hypnotize. I almost got hypnotized today, without meaning too...

[Keylaleigh]

Oh my goodness.

I'm working on two new ones right now. One of the songs (this one) is almost done except for the first verse of it, and another one (this one, to be exact) just has the chorus and BIG chorus done because the Japanese lyrics are pretty difficult to work with.

To be fair, it's a nonsensical song about insanity and parades. If I can capture the spirit of it well enough, I can probably do it.

[Yggdrasil]

That's neat!
I've tried doing that at one point, i failed miserably. XD
