Ai no Senshi
(Soldier of Love)

Sung by Yooko Ishida

The original Sailor Moon series had its own feature songs.
In this case, this is the song played in the original version of what we know as Naughty 'N' Nice (where he hear She's Got the Power).
My translation is based on a direct translation and adheres to it as much as it can, but it has a neat twist: the English words fit the rhythm, so you can actually sing it!

Original Japanese: English Translation:
Kami ga sora ni moeagaru
Karada ga honoo no you yo

Ya da wa nande kou naru no
Honto ni mou okotchau kara

Koi wo shi-te setsunai mama
Amai yume wo mitetai no ni
Yurusenai aitsura no sei yo

Yappari watashi yarukkyanai ne
Tatakitsubushite yaru wa kono te de aku wo
Sou yo sore made ganbaranakutcha
Mezamenasai aoi senshi yo

Donna warui hito datte
Suki nara shinjite miru no

Sore wo riyou suru nante
Sonna no yatcha ikenai no yo

Itsu datte mamoritai no
Anata no tame tonde yuku wa
Ai dake ga kagirinai enajii

Nee watash-itachi yarukkyanai ne
Onna no ko no junjou misete yaru no yo
Nani ga nan de mo ganbaranakucha
Mune ni chikau ai no senshi yo

Nee watashi-tachi yarukkyanai ne
Tatakitsubushite yaru wa kono te de aku wo
Sou yo sore made ganbaranakutcha
Mezamenasai ai no senshi yo
 In the sky, my flowing hair just takes alight,
And now the rest of my body's burning bright.

Now I ask, "Why is this happening to me?
Why am I all afire deep inside me?"

I am so in love, yet I am so in pain.
'Cause there are those who seek my dreams to be in vain,
So the time has come for me to rise and fight.

It is I who must stand tall. By my hand, I will conquer all.
Fighitng the darkness and showing my might, proving my courage is true.
Until then, I must hang on. There's a battle to be won.
Stand up and fight, you soldier of blue.

Though your heart may not be all that good and true,
In my heart, I'll believe the truth in you.

Just don't take advantage of the love you see.
To betray my heart is just not meant to be.

To protect you's what I always want to do,
I would do anything if I could be with you.
It's this love that keeps me going from day to day.

Now it's we who must stand tall. By our hands, we will conquer all.
Showing the courage our hearts have inside, power that comes from above.
Until then, we must hang on, all together standing strong.
United we stand, we're soldiers of love.

Now it's we who must stand tall. By our hands, we will conquer all.
Showing the courage our hearts have inside, power that comes from above.
Until then, we must hang on, all together standing strong.
Stand up and fight, you soldiers of love.
