TOTORO  TOTORO  TOTORO  TOTORO		Totoro, Totoro, Totoro, Totoro,

komichi ni  konomi  uzumete			buries nuts in the path.
chissana me  haetara				When a tiny sprout grows,
himitsu no angou				  	[you'll find] a secret password--
mori e no PASUPOOTO				the passport to the forest.
suteki-na bouken hajimaru			A wonderful adventure begins.
