Bink's Sake- English by ~bowen13:iconbowen13:



Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho.

Going to bring Bink's Sake!
Let the sea breeze lead the way!
On the waves all of our days
Across the salty deeps!
The sun above is floating high,
Painting circles in the sky.
Sea gulls sing and brass bells ring
Upon our floating home!

Say goodbye to all you know;
Head into the sun's warm glow.
Singing loud and singing proud,
We sail into the night!
Waves of gold and silver splash
Across the hull and mizzen mast.
We float on, all with a song,
To the ends of the sea!

Going to bring Bink's Sake,
A pirate's job for pirate's pay!
Like a stone, our boat skips on
And slices through the seas!
On clouds above we'll rest our head;
The rocking ship will be our bed.
On our flag the skull and dag-gers
Show we're to be feared!

If the waves dare dance too high,
If dark clouds obscure the sky,
Beat the drum and never run;
Live for that fateful dance!
If, in fear, you turn away,
You'll never see the break of day.
Just hold out, without a doubt,
The sun will surely rise!

Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,

Going to bring Bink's Sake,
And find our dreams along the way.
Wave goodbye, try not to cry,
We'll never meet again!
If the sun should cease to shine,
Everything will still be fine.
In the dark, we'll sail our bark
By the light of the moon!

Going to bring Bink's Sake,
Just like any other day!
Listen now from aft to prow
To the song of the sea!
Everyone meets Davy Jones;
One day we will all be bones!
Until then, we'll sing again
And bring Bink his sake!

Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho,
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho.

Japanese version- [link]

An English translation of one of my favorite anime songs, Bink's Sake from One Piece. I emailed it to Vic Mignogna while at Tokyo in Tulsa (a nearby convention) and he said he'd try to pass it on to someone at Funimation! Here's hoping for the best!

Do I need to put a special copywrite thing on this? I don't want to get in trouble with anyone.

I do not own One Piece and this is not an official translation. Purely fan made.

Wait, did you translate this from Japanese or just re-write it?

"Gotta bleach my voice, woman!"

"NASA should concentrate on national security and earth security projects, and discard all the rest, star gazing follies etc. Time to grow up."

The straight up translation is all out of whack with how you sing it. I found a direct translation and changed it to be singable.

The degeneration of generosity
Is the prelude to animosity.

I shall stand as a stalwart remnant,
And if the Lord be for me, and the world against me,
Then woe be to the world.

Ahh, ok. Well, good luck! If they take it I'm sure you'll let us know!

I doubt anything would keep me from it if that happened.

awesome! thanks for putting this up! I've wanted to sing it in english since it'd be easier to remember the meaning of the lyrics and plus i couldn't really sing the direct translation too well xD;;
