Fandubbed lyrics for Pearl Fey's theme song, "With Pearly" (はみちゃんと一緒), from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice for All.

The first set of lyrics is a translation of this ADORABLE Japanese version performed by Hatsune Miku: http://youtube.com/watch?v=qJuxWWiVSb0
There's already a German fancover of it...
http://youtube.com/watch?v=VxOVNDC0M3A
...so I figured, why not one in English too?

Unfortunately, I can't sing this high, and I had to awkwardly pitch-up my voice. ...Sorry about that...

As for lyrics, I think I succeeded at preserving the original meaning and rhythm pretty closely. :D (It's based on the translation by user Osakadensetsu in the comments of the original video.)
It turned out a LOT better than my own mediocre interpretation of the theme, of which I decided to record only the final verse for the excuse to draw the cute storybook pictures I had in mind to accompany it.
I also really love this one line: "'Happily ever after' is my wish for you all!" I think it sums up Pearl pretty nicely. (It's also in the Valentine's spirit, I guess?)

You know, originally, I was actually gonna show off my Pearl cosplay in this video... And I didn't...
But since I'm mentioning it... (*accepts award for shameless unsubtlety*)

I don't know how or when I grew so attached to Pearl, but she's quickly become one of my favorite characters.

LYRICS (translation)

Sipping my sweet coffee that cost three dollars in change
Got my all-important bag slung on my back
Heading for Platform 2, I hear the bell start to ring
I get my ticket out and dash up to the track

Bumping along, the train goes
New, nameless towns are all I can see
Somewhere out in the distance
Is there a prince who's waiting for me?

There are days now and then, when, for no reason at all
Suddenly I feel like I just wanna cry
Rather than feeling sad, I think the best thing to do
Is to meet at Platform 2, just you and I!

Scenery through the window
I see it all in sepia tone
My yesterdays are over
I'll say goodbye to feeling alone

It's like I've woken up from one long dream I've been in
And there are so many new things I'd love to do
So we can share a smile, my favorite friends in the world:
Meet with me here soon again at Platform 2!
Meet with me here soon again at Platform 2.

LYRICS (Japanese)

Amai KOOHII oyatsu sanbyakuen
Daiji ni kaban ni tsumete
Nibansen ni BERU ga narimasu
Kippu ni gitte tobinotta

Densha wa iku yo
Shiranai machi koete
Watashi no oujisama
Dokoka ni iru no kana?

Riyuu nante nai no desu tada
Nakitai hi mo arun desu
"Samishii" nante iu kawari ni
Nibansen kara ai ni ikou

Mado o sugiteku

Naite bakari no
Kinou ni "sayonara"

Yume kara sameta sono toki ni wa
Dareka to hohoemitai kara
Sekai de ichiban daisuki na
Anata ni ai ni ikou
Nibansen kara ai ni ikou.

LYRICS (alternate, unused)

All that I've ever known inside this small world of mine
Well, it isn't much at all; that much, I know
I can see so much more beyond the walls of Kurain
And I know I'll be okay wherever I go!

With a good spirit in me
With a good heart, pure and free of locks
There's always hope within me
If we can think outside of the box
http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz325/RayofHope3579/mia-pearl.png

I will be strong for those who are important to me
All the people I'm so grateful to know
When I'm together with my dearest friends, I can see
Surely that I'll be okay wherever I go!

http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz325/RayofHope3579/morgan-pearl.png
I have been told I'm special
Thinking about it, I'm not so sure
Something that's truly special
I think that takes a little bit more...

Just like a fairy tale: the lovely princess's call
Answered by the hero who fights for the truth
"Happily ever after" is my wish for you all
Your special someone's out there, waiting for you
Your special someone is there, waiting for you!
