不思議な少女のオペレッタ (Fushigi na shoujo no operetta) CD Translation

Hello everyone, we shall continue with our translations. This time, we translate the CD 不思議な少女のオペレッタ (Fushigi na shoujo no operetta), containing the backstory of Colette by -LostFairy-. The CD has the epithet ARS-009 and 4th fantasia. This CD is quite old and many of the songs got reworks in grimgald already! If you have not heard the crossfade of this CD yet, you can hear it here!

 From now on I will shorten 不思議な少女のオペレッタ to "Operetta"
The story of Operetta focusses on Colette, the same Colette from Grimgald. What I also shall do in these posts is compare the story of Re:Storia with the original story. I shall also point out the differences in melody if possible.

The story is preluded with a literary fragment, track 1, in which Colette starts telling the story of herself.
"It fled again... my happiness. It is not here.. where... Is there any story that I don't know? The story of a lost older brother and little sister (Hänsel and Gretel), the story of a girl who turned into a monster (Rapunzel), the story of a wolf and a pranking girl (Red riding hood), the story of a fish that is in love with a human (The little mermaid), where did my happiness go? Oh! If I lost it, why don't I go search for it! In stories in which I did not exist..."
