Anpanman [English translation]

Waiting for you, Anpanman*

Waiting for you, Anpanman

I don’t have large biceps or abs

I don’t have a super car like Batman

The super cool heroes are my fantasy

But the only thing I can give is Anpan

I dreamed of being a hero like Superman

I ran with all my strength, jump jump high in the air

I’m not afraid of little things like scraping my knee

The innocent fantasies of my young days

I’m not a superhero

Don’t expect a lot

I can be your hero

These kinds of words,

I’m not sure if they are even possible, really

But I need to do this, mom

If I don’t, then who will do this

You can call me, say Anpan

Waiting for you Anpanman

(Lemme hear ya say,

lemme hear ya say)

Waiting for you Anpanman

(Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up)

I want to summon up a bit more strength

(Lemme hear ya say say,

lemme hear ya say)

I want to become your strength

(Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up)

Keep spinning spinning, my Anpan

Keep ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

When I open my eyes, hero, but still in a maze

That young man, young man,

young man

Still secretly secretly riddled with scars

But ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

Even if it hurts, hero, put your fears behind

Anpanman panman panman

I’m a new generation Anpanman

I’m a new generation Anpanman

All I have is this one song

Lemme say “All the bad men, cop out”

I’m a new generation Anpanman

I’m a new superhero Anpanman

All I have is this one song

Lemme say “All the bad men, cop out”

Sometimes I’m afraid of all of this

Because now I have too many things I love

Some people say you too are now practically a has-been

You don’t have the right, just continue doing what you were doing

But I still want to be a hero

The only thing I can give is red bean paste bread

And the words, “you’ve worked hard”

But whoosh, I will fly to you at once if you call

Please call me

Waiting for you Anpanman

(Lemme hear ya say,

lemme hear ya say)

Waiting for you Anpanman

(Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up)

I want to summon up a bit more strength

(Lemme hear ya say say,

lemme hear ya say)

I want to become your strength

(Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up)

Keep spinning spinning, my Anpan

Keep ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

When I open my eyes, hero, but still in a maze

That young man, young man, young man

Still secretly secretly riddled with scars

But ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

Even if it hurts, hero, put your fears behind

Anpanman panman panman

Honestly

I’m afraid of falling over

Of letting you down

But still with all my strength

I will always stay by your side

Even though I will fall again

Even though I will make mistakes again

Even though I will be covered in mud

Believe in me because I’m a hero

Yeah yeah

Keep spinning spinning, my Anpan

Keep ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

When I open my eyes, hero, but still in a maze

That young man, young man, young man

Still secretly secretly riddled with scars

But ballin’ ballin’, still Bangtan

Even if it hurts, hero, put your fears behind

Anpanman panman panman

I’m a new generation Anpanman

I’m a new generation Anpanman

All I have is this one song

Lemme say “All the bad men, cop out”

I’m a new generation Anpanman

I’m a new superhero Anpanman

All I have is this one song

Lemme say “All the bad men, cop out”
