You can check how they are read in this video, though some lines (italic part) are omitted:

Both of you are slightly incorrect. Part of the reason your romaji differs is because you're using two different systems of romanisation, both of which are perfectly correct as there is no official standard. You are correct in saying that google translate cannot translate Japanese to English correctly, but this is mere romanisation which google is actually quite capable of. Here's what I believe to be a correct romanisation using my preferred romaji system.
Sono mono, azuma no totsukuni yori umi wo watarite arawareri. Wakamono, himeshi chikara, imada shirazu. Kare no mi wo horobosu koto mo, Kare no negai, kanaeshi koto mo, Sono mono, isamitatsu toki, ware wo motomen. Tomoni areno no michi wo ikan. Machite negae. Kaigou wa ware no inishie yori no sadamenari. Machite, manazashi wo muke yo. Ji yori arawareshi ryuu ga, Anun wo izanai, ten wo ouu mo, Maiorishi houou, Sono Tsubasa ni yorite, murasaki kaze wo umugagotoku, Shikkoku no yoru wa hirogari shimo, myoujou wa hitotsu kagayaki, Nagaki monogatari wa ima, hajimareri.

We all make mistakes, i may have made one myself, but it's better not to correct someone regarding a language you clearly know nothing about. It may make you look a bit silly.
