I've become hopelessly smitten with this song from The King and The Clown movie, and so of course I ended up writing myself lyrics in English for it. I've followed the same syllabic structure as the orignal Korean, hopefully it shows through. As usual I'm not singing because I can't, but I encourage anyone who wants to use my lyrics to do so.
The lyrics are not meant to be a direct translation, but are rather inspired by the originals, the movie, and my own artistic leanings.
Unfortunately I did not have any footage from the actual movie to go with it, but since I had already made a Saint Beast AMV to the song I just used it as background for the subs--it may be a little busy as such. At any rate it was the closest thing I had that worked with the spirit of the song.
There's a good instrumental track of the song here:

Lyrics:
We walked along uncertain roads, only hoping
that where we'll trod renews our fate
Your smile helps me move forth
as I take each new step,
Thankful though road-weary, with you.
What I can give you will have
It is fate that brought us here
Destiny has moved my hand in yours to hold.
I look on you and see worlds behind.
Forward we'll move stride by stride
as we cling onto our faith
and each sunrise marks another lifetime
I'll have spent walking with you.
Moments when we had found our hopes fleeting
The sweetness of brief elation,
even if those dreams fade, we'll live them once again.
I make myself yoked unto you.
I can throw over all laws
if you ask I'll shatter kings
I'll take you somewhere to start the world anew
At your wish I'll let the stars collide
The fading beauty of this
Lingers in shadows we left
Though I'll lose you I will always find you
Destiny has bound us now.
It's something that fate has brought
I will hold you 'til we've lost
I won't care now if I cannot see you
We are linked by thread of fate.
I tried to watch this anime but it bored me to death. The characters were just cute boys with NO personality at all.

I think the anime's issue is the plot more than personality, actually.

I really love this song and Saint Beast, but your lyrics are wrong. By wrong, I mean all the lyrics. But, I did read your information box, and I do know they're not a direct translation but I feel that it's misleading to say that the lyrics are for Inyeon (Fate). I hope for everyone else, you could please specify clearly. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.
I appreciate your concerns, but I feel that the disambiguation in my info box should be sufficient warning. It's quiet easy to look up both other videos or websites that present the lyrics in translation, something my video neither in its title or its description claim to be. It really is just one set of english lyrics to Inyeon. There are, of course, people who won't read the description and get the wrong idea, but I can't be responsible for them.
