M3 hype 13: 18...Other releases... (breathes in)

I'm a lunatic blog vampire, I know, I outputted 13 posts written on the spot in less than 36 hours.

 So I'll quickly glance over the other releases I'm hyped for but not hyped for enough to feature in a separate post lol. As I was writing the post... the list kept getting longer... my own grave is being dug by myself lol. But at least I will have good music in my grave

1. Sugar Bunny* - 最低な明日におはよう / Starry Parade (Saitei na Ashita ni Ohayou/Starry Parade)

Omg it's so cute I'm melting! And wow I finally know where I know mameko from, from Baby Romantica, a great Aitsuki Nakuru x Mameko album! Talking about Aitsuki Nakuru, again, I haven't seen the announcement of a solo album sadly.

2. Kotono - まいどりーむきんぐだむ! (My dream kingdom!)

More cuteness coming your way! This time it's a full song! Part of a mini-album release for next M3 and hey another familiar name! Chiru:D!

3. 朝木ゆう(Euphony*) Asagi Yuu - フユアカリ  (Fuyuakari) 

 


TSU KA GO SHI ! No other words needed.

4. 咲良ゆの (Sakura Yuno) - Replica Blue. 


 Nice eurobeat/trance vibes. also... TSUKAGOSHI TSUKAGOSHI TSUKAGOSHI! That Tsukagoshi progression at the end of the part of Tsukagoshi's song lol!

5. お月さま交響曲 (Otsukisama Koukyoukyoku) - ESPERANZA


 I really like Otsukisama Koukyouikyoku as well, I think I own the album MONOLOGIA and I really like the symphonic/epic/orchestral vibes they produce. And oh yeah, ALICO ALICO ALICO!!

6.  konoco - Vivi≠de


 

Shinra Bansho nice! Very pretty art as well! Not many other comments

7. Vivid Lila - White as Snow


Nayuta on vocals of track 3 and 4! I have the feeling that I know that Itsuki, I think it's the Itsuki from La Prière!

8. Nakamura Meiko's release, I havent seen a XFD, but count me hyped if she releases something. Apparently she's also known as 水夏える.

9. 創作堂さくら紅葉 - Vert Noir 

Hey! It's Yura! And sioborn again, and Kokomi! Sounds like a pretty good CD!

10. SeriouS - Sentimental4

 FripSide/Eurobeat vibes! Nice!! This definitely is a very nice album! I can't say I knew any of the names before but hey, good music needs recognition

11.StudioComodo - Railway



As a kid vampire I was a huge train otaku, I guess that is why this CD also appealed to me. The rock vibes though are very nice :3

12. BlackY ft. Risa Yuzuki - Imitator



Wow I knew Risa Yuzuki had a beautiful voice, but she also is a powerhouse!!! I knew her from Ariabl'eyes (and also from her previous CD with BlackY, but didn't really listen to her a lot). I started appreciating her voice a lot since the Belial CD.

13. s1dou - Stella



Another CD with many familiar names. The Sakura and Nayuta tracks are hmm..... but the rest is pretty nice! Nayuta, Risa Yuzuki, okogeeechann, I mean... ocogeeechann!!

14. Eugen Scarlet / Eugenics Scarlet Divinity - 黒翼のアストレア -Night Wing Astraea-



MORE SENNZAI AND METAL.. even though this is a little wild for me, I usually listen to Gothic metal... I can still appreciate it when I'm in the correct mood for it!!

15. At the Garret - The guest of Honour




Ooh nice and spooky and gothic! 19th century england heh, means it's probably set in the Victorian era!

16.  ARForest×nayuta - Imaginary Arcadia



Nayuta! It's a pretty nice CD. I really love the cover art and I like the greek titles. Aorist = Past time, Telos = the end, Hyle probably refers to the sun, but my greek isn't that good xD.


17. 箱々症候軍 (HakoBakoShowKohGun) - iDéal



Wow nice. The vocals are a bit high, but generally nice! How does this count as Visual Kei lol... This is power metal in my ears lol.

18.  U-hey Seta - Stardust Dancefloor

 
Nice. Drop the beat!

*pants*, i have been writing and formatting for over an hour.  I think there might be other nice releases, but I'm stopping at 18 here, because i have featured 12 other artists already lol. I think this is a M3 I will never forget <3!

 

 Cheers, LuckyAurora



M3 hype 7: Hatsuki Yura

The past years I haven't really been listening to Yura's newer CDs, because they were a little too experimental for me. There were some good CDs that I listen to a lot though, but sadly not as many as I hoped. I think since Snow/Onyx Veil or maybe Mirage Doll are the last CDs I purchased. The other CDs were not really my taste. Until Asymmetry, that was an amazing CD! Oracle and Witchcraft were pretty nice as well, but I tend to only like the Drop and Tsukagoshi songs lol. Oh and the Jazz songs were amazing as well. Since Meriole closed her blog I might pick this CD, but I ain't promising anything. The other things I've translated from Yura were Symholic stuff, so those lyrics and vibes were totally different... I'll think about it.


So moving on to the impression

"Choose with a twisted heart as you wish, with trembling hands
That is the proof to live, the future to destroy
A collection of gothic dark fantasy songs about girls who are manipulated by fate."

The XFD is quite interesting, it's not as experimental as usually. This time it's Drop that composed the intro and outro . I don't think I have heard of sioborn before, but hey track 2 is quite nice. Apparently it was used in another CD, of which I never knew it existed... I can't find mp3s of it anywhere either... so rip. I am broke maybe someday I'll buy it. Fall to the dark side is decent, a little too experimental for my taste but okay. But track 4 is a banger actually! I never heard of Ako before, but I love the good chaos going on! I think this is my favourite song of the album. Arcana 15, The Angel of Slaughter, the devil, cool song! I want to dedicate this song to a certain character in Trails in the Sky.... Track 6? Banger! Meriole once said I always liked the Drop song the most out of every CD haha, she is right though, this is almost paralleling the Ako song. I really like the fast part in chorus. The typical Drop progressions heh. Noice. I'm a bit sad there is no Tsukagoshi song, but hey, I definitely like this album!!

I'dsay for now: 4>6>2=5>3 !

Comprehensive post: Sandome Vengel Maisery Trilogy

So I have finally finished translating the trilogy of SanVenMai (Sandome Vengel Maisery), which was quite a ride. I have done some proofreading and helped with scanlations before, but taking on a project on my own was quite an adventure. I really enjoyed translating the CDs though! My compliments to Paspal, Yura and Lalue, and their production team for producing these CD's!

In this post, I want to explain the complete timeline of the trilogy, give my opinion on the lyrics and rate all the songs in my order of enjoyment.  I first shall post all the artworks/on the covers of the CDs to get into the spirit!

 Sandome
 Vengel
 Maisery



Timeline:

So, I suspect that the chronological order is roughly: Sandome (San) - Maisery (Mai) - Vengel (Ven).
and more precisely: Mai3 - Mai2 - San1/San2 - San3 - San4 - San5 - Ven3 - Mai1/Ven1 - Mai4 - Mai5 - Ven2 - Ven4 - Ven5

I suspect that order because Mai3 and Mai2 have taken place a long time ago, I think Mai3 was the first event, because it takes place in paradise. Mai2 introduces Bloody Mary, telling her past, without connecting to the present timeline. Then many, many years pass and Sandome takes place, all songs are in chronological order there, but San1 and 2 take place at the same time, in both songs the same ritual is performed, but San2 goes a little deeper into the past of the girl. I think Vengel and Maisery roughly take place around the same time. Vengel was not yet in the world of Sandome, but was still alive when the Maisery story happened. The 5th song in Vengel suggests Vengel dies, so I have to put that song at the end of the timeline. The "birth" of Vengel in song 3, has to be placed before the first song of Maisery and Vengel. About those songs... I think the first song of Maisery and Vengel refer to the same event, the error occurs in both songs... and I can name many more similarities. Then Bloody Mary takes over the second girl in song 4, Vengel exorcises the girl in Mai5 and then the rest of Vengel occurs.

Some crucial questions I thought of myself while making up this chronology were:

Why do I think Vengel died? Well, it seems that the words: 幕を下ろした appear in all the 5th songs. It means "let down the curtains", which refers to death. So, in the San5 the girl who has summoned bloody mary dies and becomes an angel. The possibility exists that that girl is actually the previous life of Vengel and I considered that theory too. I, however, have no proof of this theory. The only evidence I have is that both the girl who became Vengel and Sandome's main girl were sickly and lived in a broken house/ worn down mansion.

Why do I think Sandome and Maisery do not sing about the same events? Because the CD was initially named "The return of Bloody Mary", thus referring to that there are two times Mary has summoned someone. "Zetsubou no Quartet/ The Quartet of Despair"is a song she sings to both of her victims, but the victim in Sandome hears other songs than the girl in Maisery. The first named hears "Shuuen no Fantasia/Fantasia of Demise", "Yamanai koe no Rondo/ The rondo of the unstoppable voice"and the latter named hears "Fukushuu no Oratorio/ Oratorio of Revenge", "Kyouran no Prelude/ Prelude of Madness".

Lyrics:
So, in general I thought the lyrics of all songs including Vengel were amazing, they truly tell a story, one I would enjoy reading. I especially like how Paspal writes other kanji down than what is sung, which makes the lyrics even more impressive. However, it's harder to figure out what is actually sung. The ambiguousness in the lyrics was something I also like, especially in Vengel I was confused a lot. Who was who? Who is Vengel? Who is the friend? It made me think a lot!

 Finding stylistic elements such as chiasms, ellipses and parallelisms inside the lyrics and implementing them on purpose, although I have not written all down in the translation comments, truly made me happy too! I hope many more people can enjoy and find those elements in Japanese and my English translations.

So the total story of the lyrics becomes:

Somewhere in heaven, God has angels who gather flowers for him. Everytime a child dies, it becomes an angel. One day, God locks up two angels inside a clock that can look into someone's memories... Then Bloody Mary is born, she is loved by her mom and dad, until one day her dad murders her mom, her dad remarries, her new mom is murdered again. Mary murders her dad and starts to prosecute protestant Christians.... Many years later, a sickly girl hears of the rumour of Bloody Mary. The girl was never happy and wanted friends to play with. She was abandoned by her parents and nobody wanted her, except for an eldery couple who took her in. The couple gave her a mirror, and one night she utters this in front of the mirror: Bloody Mary... Bloody Mary... Bloody.... Mary.... *sounds of a mirror shattering*. The girl is very frail and thin and thus the girl is possessed by Mary.... Mary takes over and only desires to see beautiful red blood! The girl goes crazy from the ringing voice in her head.... but finally she succombs and ascends to heaven, becoming an angel (possibly becoming Vengel). So an angel (who later becomes Vengel) is born, but instead of having white wings, her wings are mechanical. Vengel remembers that she once was a sickly girl, who was bedridden. Her life was brightened by a flower, which she couldn't take with her to afterlife. Once in afterlife, she was not long in heaven, although she had become an angel, she was captured and her wings were cut off. She grew mechanical wings and continued to search for the flower. During that search for the flower, she was sent out for all kinds of jobs, to bring people from real life to the afterlife. She had to do this and was never thanked for what she did. She did her job without emotion, until one day, her emotions pierced through and she failed her mission. She is sent out again, to take down a girl who is possessed by Bloody Mary, they have a fierce fight and Vengel wins in the end. The vengeful spirit of Mary wanders eternally.... But then Vengel continues her duty and her search for the flower and comes to a broken city and a broken house. She remembers her only "friend", who was actually herself of the past and a flower. She finally found the flower, all whithered, and thought of her angelic past self, but then she realised that the past self had become the cruel angel that she now was. She wanted vengeance on god for making her cruel.... Hence she then is an angel who wants vengeance, becoming Vengel. In the end she kills herself......

Enjoyment:

My personal enjoyment of the songs in order from favourite to least favourite is in general Maisery > Sandome > Vengel. the exact order as of 24/11/2019, including the instrumental outros is
Mai4>Mai2>Mai5>Mai6>San4>San3>San2>San1>Ven6>Ven2=Ven1>Mai1>San5>Ven3>Ven4>Mai3>Ven5.

There are multiple things I take into account when I rate songs.The most important thing for me is numbered with 1 and the least important with 6. This list is not exhaustive!

1. Mastering
2. Main melody, including pitch correctness of the singer
3. Composition (background music) overall
4. Originality of the music, does it contain variety in itself? refraining from using ostinatos?
5. Voice of the singer
6. Lyrics/meaning (Unless it is really vulgar, then it will take top priority)

I enjoy Yura's voice more than Lalue's for example, Lalue, however, does a truly good job in this CD trilogy.  Next to that, I prefer heavier/more powerful compositions such as Mai4 and Mai2 over Mai3 and Ven5 (especially when the background music fades away, I think the composition becomes too lacking), as my favourite genre in music is "Gothic Metal"!

That was it for the compilation post.... Oh no! One more thing! Not only do I like listening to the songs, I also like to sing them!


This is an example of me singing "Maisery" with a friend named Rippi! Check it out!

絶望の四重奏 (Zetsubou no Quartet) - Quartet of Despair - Romaji and Translation

The last song in the CD! This means my work with Senketsu is done!
This song is about the girl going crazy even more, her body following the unstopping voice of Mary inside her head. The voice of Mary rings like a song, leads her to slice down her guardians and eventually she breaks free from the voice of Mary by dying and ascending to heaven.
This song can be directly connected to the song Maisery, it has the same concept, yet here Vengel doesn't interfere, I think the girl collapses from her poor health and dies. The title of the song also appears in the fourth song of the CD Maisery, which essentially has the same structure with naming "types of musical composition"

I noticed some nice easter eggs in this song. I thought these lyrics were very well thought out:
The first and the last couplet have the same lyrics and melody, making it in essence a real rondo, in the middle a variation is given with a fantasia. I like how they used "Fantasia", since it connects to the desires of the girl. The girl dreams of having a friend and spending happy times, which is her fantasia.


Edit: 28/04/2020: I had a listen to Paspal's own version (remixed in Alisia as Secret Quartet) and it helped me figure out the English lyrics better. The tags have also been added as of 24/12/2022

沈みゆく 静寂をかき消した
止まない声の“輪舞曲”
曖昧に落ちてゆく先で 永久に響いてた
たどりつく世界の 未来さえも
余さずに 何処までも 逃がさないと

shizumiyuku seijaku wo kakikeshita
yamanai koe no "rondo"
aimai ni ochiteyuku saki de towa ni hibiiteta
tadoritsuku sekai no mirai sae mo
amasazu ni doko made mo nigasanai to

A "rondo" of an unstoppable voice, drowned out the submerged silence
Before I start falling into ambiguity, it resounded into eternity
Even without saving the future of the world in which I had arived
I had nowhere to go

闇の中で 疼く衝動抑えても
身体は 快楽を求めてた
鈍く光る刃握り 進む
“老夫婦”が帰った 寝室へ

yami no naka de  uzuku shoudou osaete mo
karada wa kairaku wo motometeta
nibuku hikaru yaiba nigiri susumu
"futari"ga kaetta shinshitsu he

Amidst the darkness, I restrained my throbbing urge
My body was wishing for pleasure
I grasped a dull shining blade and I advanced to the bedroom.
Meanwhile, the "eldery couple (them)" came home


優しい光は 凶器を照らし
“老夫婦”へ振り翳す

yasashii hikari wa  kyouki wo terashi
"futari" e furikazasu

The tender light illuminated the deadly weapon
that I brandished towards the "eldery couple (them)"

柔らかな 安息を引き裂いた
絶望の“四重奏”
驚愕に凍りつく瞳 私を写した
背徳の世界は 贖罪さえ
赦さずに 何時までも追い詰めてた

yawarakana ansoku wo hikisaita
zetsubou no "quartet"
kyougaku ni kooritsuku hitomi watashi wo utsushita
haitoku no sekai wa shokuzai sae
yurusazu ni  itsumade mo oitsumeteta

Disrupting the gentle repose
was the "Quartet of despair"
Their eyes, frozen by astonishment, reflected my form
the immoral world does not allow anything but atonement
Until when would I be cornered?


後悔の中 疼く衝動止められず
頭に鳴り響く 「足りない」 と
“体内”に秘めた赤色の血 気付く
何よりも赤く 美しい

koukai no naka udzuku shoudou tomerarezu
atama ni nari hibiku 「tarinai」to
"uchi" ni himeta sekishoku no chi kidzuku
naniyori mo akaku utsukushii

Amidsts the regret, without stopping my throbbing movements
inside my head  the words「It's not enough!」resound
She noticed the red blood hidden "inside my body"
She loved beautiful red above all else

迫り来る闇に 狂気を捧げ
私へ突き立てる

semarikuru yami ni kyouki wo sasage
watashi e tsukitateru

The madness stabbed me and I devoted myself
to the imminent darkness


張り詰めた 沈黙を切り裂いた
終焉の“幻想曲”
溢れ出す真紅の泉は 絶え間なく流れ
崇高な世界を 満たす辛苦
燃え上がる狂乱に 幕を下ろす

haritsumeta chinmoku wo kirisaita
shuuen no "fantasia"
afuredasu shinku no izumi wa taemanaku nagare
suukou na sekai wo mitasu shinku
moeagaru kyouran ni maku wo orosu

 The "Fantasia" of demise
disrupted the tense silence
A spring of red started to overflow, incessantly flowing
The hardship satisfied the sublime world
Flaming up in fury, I lowered the curtains

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め、
その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい”

"Ask for the blood, dye the both hands crimson!
if the sweet act is performed, my desire is filled!"  

"Seek for the blood, let's dye your both hands in crimson!
If that sweet act is performed, it will satisfy my desire" 


巡り廻る“鎮魂歌”
終わらない歌を
歌い続けていた“血塗られた彼女”

meguri mawaru "requiem"
owaranai uta wo
utaitsudzuketeita "Bloody mary"

"The blood covered girl (Bloody Mary)" continued to sing
the "Requiem" that went around and around
A song without an end

解放されたと涙零し 私は天空へ昇る
繋がれた鎖 彼女の笑顔が引き戻し


kaihousareta to namida koboshi watashi wa sora e noboru
tsunagareta kusari kanojo no egao ga hikimodoshi

I was released from the chains that connected us and my tears overflowed, I ascended the sky and I restored her smile

沈みゆく静寂をかき消した
止まない声の“輪舞曲”
曖昧に落ちてゆく先で 永久に響いてた
たどりつく世界の 未来さえも
余さずに 何処までも 逃がさないと

shizumiyuku seijaku wo kakikeshita
yamanai koe no "rondo"
aimai ni ochiteyuku saki de towa ni hibiiteta
tadoritsuku sekai no mirai sae mo
awasazu ni doko made mo nigasanai to

A "rondo" of an unstoppable voice, drowned out the submerged silence
Before I start falling into ambiguity, it resounded into eternity
Even without saving the future of the world in which I had arived
I had nowhere to go

血塗られた彼女の追憶 (Chinurareta kanojo no tsuioku) - The recollection of the blood smeared woman - Romaji and translation

The fourth song! This one was the first I heard from the Senketsu album!
This song is probably indeed from the Mary's point of view, as Meriole indicated. I also tried to translate the song from the point of Mary. So, Mary wanders through this world as a spirit wanting to possess someone, then finally, her call comes! A girl wants to be friends with her... telling her she's like her and wants to spend her days with Mary and give her blood...

さらさら と 輝く長い 髪をなびかせて
ぎらぎら と 光溢れる 道歩いた
ひらひら と スカートの裾 揺らし進む私は
くらくら と 倒れるほどに 夢抱いていた

sarasara to kagayaku nagai kami wo nabikasete
giragira to hikari afureru michi aruita
hirahira to sukaato no suso  yurashi susumu watashi wa
kurakura to taoreru hodo ni yume ni daiteita

Silky, I let my shiny and long hair wave in the wind
Dazzling, I walked down the light-flooded road
Fluttering, I continued to let the hem of my skirt wave in the wind
Dizzy, I embraced my dream to the extent of collapsing

満たされてた世界は 変わらないと 信じていた
赤く染まった 花びらを見つめて
気付かずに 響いていた 汽笛の音
“私”の命 終わりを告げた

mitasareteta sekai wa kawaranai to shinjiteita
akaku somatta hanabira wo mitsumete
kidzukazu ni hibiiteita kiteki no oto
"ko"no inochi owari wo tsugeta

I realised that I couldn't change the world that resulted from my dreams
and I looked at the red dyed flower petals
I became aware of the resounding sound of a steam whistle
And I marked the end of "my (this)" life,


ゆらゆら と 彷徨う命“自死体”見下ろした
きらきら と 撒き散らしてる 赤い雫
ちらちら と 覗いた情緒 美しいと思った
はらはら と こぼれた涙 悲しくは無くて

yurayura to samayou inochi "karada" mioroshita
kirakira to makichirashiteru akai shizuku
chirachira to nozoita joucho utsukushii to omotta
harahara to koboreta namida kanashiku wa nakute

Shaking, I looked down at the wandering "corpse (body)"
Glistening, I started to scatter drops of red
Glancing, I thought that the emotion that peaked through was beautiful
Trickling down, my tears fell, but I wasn't sad

私が消え 世界は 何も変わる事はなくて
一人彷徨い 居場所を求めてた
私の名 呼び出す声 響き渡る
手繰り寄せ 見つけた

 watashi ga kie sekai wa nanimo kawaru koto wa nakute
hitori samayoi ibasho wo motometeta
watashi no na yobidasu koe hibikiwataru
teguriyose mitsuketa

In a world in which I'm vanishing, nothing would change
Alone, I searched for a place where I could belong
A voice that called my name resounded through
I got attracted and found her

呼んでくれた少女の声は 私を導いた
細すぎる その身体に近づき
蝕むように 夢を喰らい尽くした

yondekureta shoujo no koe wa watashi wo michibiita
hososugiru sono karada ni chikadzuki
mushibamu you ni yume wo kuraitsukushita

The voice of the girl who called me, guided me
I came close to her super thin body
I devoted myself to eating her dreams, like gnawing into her body


『似たもの同士 居心地の良い貴女の
その命 尽き果てるまで 私と楽しみましょう?』

『nitamono doushi igokochi no ii anata no
sono inochi tsukihateru made watashi to tanoshimashou?』

『You just look like me! Let's be friends! Do you want to have fun with until my comfortable life ends ?』

二人で求め 二人で過ごした日々は
甘く燃えるような 幻想に変わり 快感に気付く

futari de motome futari de sugoshita hibi wa
amaku moeru you na gensou ni kawari kaikan ni kidzuku

Together they seeked, they spend their days together
they noticed that their feelings were changing into a sweetly burning fantasy


呼んでくれた少女の口は 私の声のまま
巻き込んだ その“死体”に近づき
蝕むように 肉を食い散らかした

yondekureta shoujo no kuchi wa watashi no koe no mama
makikonda sono "karada" ni chikadzuki
mushibamu you ni niku wo kuichirakashita

The (sound from the) mouth of the girl who called me, was like my voice
Coming closer to her "corpse (body)", I got pulled in
I devoted myself to eating her flesh, like gnawing into her body


『似たもの同士 通じ合うこの私と
その命 震えるほどの 興奮を脳裏に刻みましょう?』

『nitamono doushi tsuujiau kono watashi to
sono inochi furueru hodo no koufun wo nouri ni kizamimashou? 』


『You just look like me! Let's sympathise with eachother! Do you want to have fun with until my body starts trembling? Shall we remember our exciting times?』

鮮血の斉唱 (Senketsu no seishou) - Unison of fresh blood - Romaji and Translation

This song is about the girl who is realising what she has done, Mary wasn't a friend, mary was an enemy! She wanted to take advantage of the girl to fulfill her own desire of blood! Mary's voice resounds in her head telling her this:

"Ask for the blood, dye the both hands crimson!
if the sweet act is performed, my desire is filled!" 

 
So the girl goes to church and hopes to seek salvation there at a priest. During the exorcision, Mary breaks through and kills the priest and the girl can't take the madness of the world anymore.

咳を散らす口元 ふらつく足
眩暈 立ちくらんだ世界眺め
身体が求めてた 赤色の雫
 満たされない欲望 抑えた

seki wo chirasu kuchimoto furatsuku ashi
memai tachikuranda sekai nagame
karada ga motometeta sekishoku no shizuku
mitasarenai yokubou osaeta

My mouth scatters coughs and my legs stagger
while dizzy I watch the unmoving world
My body was seeking for drops of red
it was restrained by an unsatisfied desire


こんな はずではなかった
あの夜から とり憑いた 『彼女』
頭の中響く声 渦巻く悪意が蝕んだ

konna hazu de wa nakatta
ano yoru kara toritsuita 『kanojo』
atama no naka hibiku koe uzumaku akui ga mushibanda

This should have never been like this
Since that night 『The bloody girl』had taken over
in my head, a voice resounded and the whirling evil spirit destroyed me

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
 その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

"Ask for the blood, dye the both hands crimson!
if the sweet act is performed, my desire is filled!"  

"Seek for the blood, let's dye your both hands in crimson!
If that sweet act is performed, it will satisfy my desire"


—それは 抗う事の出来ない
支配された思考だったから・・・・・・

—sore wa aragau koto no dekinai
 shihaisareta shikou datta kara......

—You cannot deny me
because your thoughts were ruled by me.......


 戸惑うように 雫を舐める私は
 後悔の中 熱い鮮血の味を識った
動かなくなる“小動物”を ただ見つめては
冷めた自己嫌悪を巡らせた

tomadou you ni shizuku wo nameru watashi wa
koukai no naka atsui senketsu no aji wo shitta
ugokanaku naru "sore " wo tada mitsumete wa
sameta jikokeno wo meguraseta

 As if I were bewildered, I licked the drops
Midst my regret, I became aware of the flavour of warm, fresh blood
I could only look at the "small animal (that)" that couldn't move anymore
I became cold, and became surrounded by self-hatred

汚れ散らす口元 赤く染まる
鏡 映りこんだ自分眺め
身体が覚えてた 赤色の果実
鳴り止まない 声は続いてた

yogorechirasu kuchimoto akaku somaru
kagami utsurikonda jibun nagame
karada ga oboeteta sekishoku no kajitsu
nariyamanai koe wa tsudzuiteta

I dyed my filthy mouth in red
I looked at my reflection in the mirror
I remembered my body, it had become a fruit of red
the voice that rang forever continued

苦く 錆びた鉄のように
広がる味 興奮覚えた
この悪夢を祓おうと 招いた神父に手をかける

nigaku sabita tetsu no you ni
hirogaru aji koufun oboeta
kono akumu wo haraou to maneita shinpu ni te wo kakeru

Bitter like rusty iron
the taste filled me, I remembered her excitement
to exorcise this nightmare, I asked a Catholic priest for help


 “鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
 その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

"Ask for the blood, by the both hands, crimson!
 If that sweet act is performed, then my desire is filled!"

"Seek for the blood, let's dye your both hands in crimson!
If that sweet act is performed, it will satisfy my desire"


—祈り 捧げる 光の十字 黒く深い闇が包み込む・・・・・・

— inori sasageru hikari no juuji kuroku fukai yami ga tsutsumikomu ......

— Devoted to prayers, a cross of light wrapped up the deep black darkness......

貪るように 雫を啜る私は
本能のまま 歪む牙を突きたて笑う
冷たくなった“神父”を ただ見下ろして
熱く滲む涙を零した

musaboru you ni shizuku wo susuru watashi wa
honnou no mama igamu kiba wo tsukitate warau
tsumetaku natta "sore" wo tada mioroshite
atsuku nijimu namida wo koboshita

As if I was indulged, I sipped the drops
I pierced him with my fangs, just as how my instinct was, twisted, and I laughed
I could only look down at "the priest (that)" whose body had become cold
I shed warm tears

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

"Ask for the blood, dye the both hands crimson!
if the sweet act is performed, my desire is filled!"  

"Seek for the blood, let's dye your both hands in crimson!
If that sweet act is performed, it will satisfy my desire"


—耳を 塞いで慟哭しても
響き渡る 鳴り止まない声

— mimi wo fusaide doukoku shite mo
hibiki wataru nariyamanai koe

— I covered my ears and lamented
 yet the unstoppable voice rang through

 狂いそうな世界で叫ぶ私は
背徳の中 罪悪感 もう戻らない
凍り付いた願いに 別れを告げて
赤く染まる涙を流した

kuruisou na sekai de sakebu watashi wa
haitoku no naka zaiakukan mou tomaranai
kooritsuita negai ni wakare wo tsugete
akaku somaru namida wo nagashita

I screamt in the world that has gone mad
Amidst the immorality, I had feelings of guilt, but I couldn't turn back anymore
I announced farewell to my desire that had gone cold
And I shed tears dyed in red

幸せな私の追憶 (shiawase na watashi no tsuioku) - Reminiscence of my Happy Times - Romaji and translation

The second song is called "Reminiscence of my Happy Times". This song can be connected to the second song in Maisery, which is called "Deep Red Reminiscence" which describes the memories of the bloody queen. At the beginning I kind of disliked the song, but after working on the translation, it really grew on me. In this song the past of the girl is described. She was abandoned because of sickness and nobody had interest in her. One day an eldery couple adopted her and she lived with them happily. One day they gave her a mirror and she was incredibly happy. Yet, the loneliness in her spread again when the couple went on a trip, she then performed the ritual of summoning.... as described in song 1 of this cd. Mary comes out of the mirror and promises to be her friend, on one condition, she must give her blood (not neccesarily hers as you will see in song 3 and 4.....).

やせ細る身体を震わせても、誰も興味を抱かないと
幼く捨てられた私だけど、そんな事もう知ってたから
優しく手を伸ばす“老夫婦”に出会えてから、今までの世界が弾けて消えた
私に居場所を与えてくれた その笑顔、光の様に・・・・・・

watashi ni ibasho wo ataete kureta sono egao, hikari no you ni ......

I was abandoned at young age.  I became so thin that my body trembled, nobody had interest in hugging me, I knew it from the very start. Only because of an "eldery couple (them)" that I met, stretched out their hand to me with kindness. The world up until then burst open and disappeared.
They gave me a place to belong, their laugh was as bright as light

“老夫婦”の話す旅の土産話に心躍らせて笑う

"futari" no hanasu tabi no miyakebanashi ni kokoro odorasete warau

The "couple (them)" told tales about their travels, which sent my heart aflutter and I laughed


その日は 「それだけじゃないよ」 と、大きな鏡
渡された“贈り物”にはしゃぎ、咳き込んだ私を
心配そうに見つめて 「古い物だけど、気に入ったなら良かった」 と笑っていた

That day they said「this is not everything」and handed me with a mirror
I was so happy with the present that I suddenly started coughing violently
They looked at me with a sorrowful look, but then they replied while smiling「Even though it is old, we are happy that you like it」

“老夫婦”は旅に出掛け、一人きり 寂しさを紛らわせる日々
心ざわついてた私だけど、鏡の前なら落ち着いた

"The eldery couple (them)" went on a trip, and I was alone again, my days were absorbed in loneliness.
My heart became noisy and I could only calm down in front of the mirror
The transparent world that was reflected inside mirror.... in there was another me that grinned
The image in the mirror that was inseperable from my own existence was more beautiful than anything.......

I thought about an old picture book, inside there was a "story (letter)" , and I called......


割れた鏡の向こう側に、血塗れた 『彼女』
現れたその姿見つめて、優しく微笑んだ
「やっと呼び出してくれた」 と冷たく笑う

The mirror shattered and on the other side there was, a 『girl』covered in blood
I looked at the figure that just appeared, and I smiled gently
 「Finally you called out for me」she laughed coldly
And she made her way into my astonished heart via a crevice and took over...

赤く熱い鮮血に魅入られた 『彼女』
遊ぶ友達が欲しい私

『She』who made an entrance and was obsessed by the red and warm fresh blood
And I, who wanted friends to play with


『さぁ これからは二人で、命尽きるまで 最高の“血祭り”を楽しみましょう?』
『saa kore kara wa futari de, inochi tsukiru made saikou no "party" wo tanoshimimashou?』
『Come, from now until your body wears out, shall we enjoy the best "bloodbath" together? 』



 Translation notes:

古い絵本に書かれた“物語”想いを馳せて今呼んだ・・・・・・
furui ehon ni kakareta "épistole" omoi wo hasete ima yonda ......
I thought about an old picture book, inside there was a "story (letter)" , and I called......

I couldn't understand exactly what Yura sings, but it kinda sounded like "épistole"

黒鏡の呪い (Kokkyou no noroi) - The curse of the black mirror - Romaji and Translation

This song is about a girl with poor health, the first paragraph describes how she was living and how she heard the rumour of bloody mary... wanting to have a friend she calls the name thrice and then Mary appears.... and takes over her body!

As Meriole says in her blog, there are three stanza in the song, spread over the three choruses.

呼んだ少女の名は 一度の”好奇心”
The first time, I call the name of the girl out of "curiosity"

招く少女の名は 二度の”寂寥感”
The second time I summon with the name of the girl out of "loneliness"

もう 引き返せない三度目の”呪縛”
The third time, is an inevitable "curse" 


Translation:

I who had poor heath was living
in a room of a certain time-worn mansion.
One day I heard a rumor from outside the window.
The rumor was that by saying the name
of a certain girl three times before a mirror at midnight,
that girl will appear. So I muttered . . . . . .

(Bloody mary (x3))

The blood covered girl who appeared there smiled coldly at me
and pounced at me. My resistance was to no avail
and the girl took over me and attemps to fulfill her
only desire of "wanting to see beautiful blood".
The forbidden words that I muttered thrice transform
themselves into a tale of regret.

暗く 閉ざしていた 扉を開かせて
弱い記憶の中頼りに 呼び覚ます
日が落ちた空 月明かり飲み込む
古い鏡の中 想い馳せて

kuraku tozashiteita tobira wo hirakasete
yowai kioku no naka tayori ni yobisamasu
hi ga ochita sora tsukiakari nomikomu
furui kagami no naka omoi hasete

I opened a door with darkness behind
relying on my weak memory, I awaken
In the sky the sun goes down and is swallowed by the moonlight
Inside an old mirror, my thoughts come running!

銀色の鏡面に 写った身体見て
吸い込まれた思い 響き合った
不確かな言い伝えは 心に光を灯す

giniro no kyoumen ni utsutta karada mite
suikomareta omoi hibikiatta
futashikana iitsutae wa kokoro ni hikari wo tomosu

Looking at my body, reflected in the silver mirror surface
My thoughts were absorbed and reverberated
an uncertain tradition lighted the light inside my heart

呼んだ少女の名は 一度の ‘‘好奇心”
怖い物見たさ 半信半疑 故に狂おしい
満たされぬ 衝動 埋めてくれるのなら
たとえ‘‘幽霊”でもいい

yonda shoujo no na wa hitotabi no "curiosity"
kowai mono mita sa hanshinhangi yue ni kuruoshii
mitasarenu shoudou umetekureru no nara 
tatoe "ghost" demo ii

The first time, I call the name of the girl out of "curiosity"
having seen scary things, half in doubt, consequently I find myself on the verge of insanity
Even if I don't gratify or even if I become buried,
even if it's a "evil spirit (ghost)", I'm still fine with it.

期待を込めて呼び出す 最初の名前を
暗闇の鏡へと

kitai wo komete yobidasu saisho no namae wo
kurayami no kagami e to

I call out the name, for the first time, filled with expectation
towards the dark mirror

赤く 綺麗な血は 心を魅了して
弱い身体動かせて ひたすら求め
孤独な部屋に 閉じ込めた心は
鍵をかけた 扉のように重く

akaku kirei na chi wa kokoro wo miryou shite
yowai karada ugokasete hitasura motome
kodoku na heya ni tojikometa kokoro wa
kagi wo kaketa tobira no you ni omoku

Beautiful red blood fascinates my mind
I earnestly request to have the ability to move my body
My heart was locked in  an isolated room
It was locked and heavy as a gate

反射する鏡面は 全てを拒絶して
真逆の世界から 写し合った
黒いドレスを揺らせて 祈るように呟いた

hansha suru kyoumen wa subete wo kyozetsu shite
magyaku no sekai kara utsushiatta
kuroi doresu wo yurasete inoru you ni tsubuyaita

The reflecting mirror surface rejected everything
It imitated me, from an opposite world
A black dress wavered,  like how I muttered prayers

招く少女の名は 二度の “寂寥感”
寂しくて耐えられない心 故に求めていた
満たされぬ願望 叶えてくれるなら
たとえ“悪霊”でもいい

maneku shoujo no na wa   futatabi no "loneliness"
sabishikute taerarenai kokoro yue ni motometeita
mitasarenu ganbou kanaetekureru nara
tatoe "ghost" de mo ii

The second time I summon with the name of the girl out of "a feeling of loneliness" 
 my heart couldn't bear being lonely, consequently,  I wished for a friend
Even if it does not fulfill my desire, or if it grants my wish
even if it is a ghost, I am still fine with it.

願いを込めて呼び出す 二度目の名前を
黒銀の鏡へと

negai wo komete yobidasu nidome no namae wo
kokugin no kagami e to

I call out the name the second time, filled with my wish
towards the dark mirror

白く痩せた身体 『血塗られた少女』 を呼ぶ
もう 引き返せない三度目の“呪縛”

shiroku yaseta karada 『chinurareta shoujo』 wo yobu
mou hikikaesenai sandome no "curse"

With my white and thin body, I call out to the 『Blood smeared girl』
this third time, is an inevitable "curse" 


割れて写る二人は ひとつになり
満たされた心は 後悔へと

warete utsuru futari wa hitotsu ni nari
mitasareta kokoro wa koukai e to

Breaking out from the projection, the girl in the mirror and I become one
My heart became filled with regret
---

translation notes
満たされぬ 衝動 埋めてくれるのなら
This is a hard to translate stanza due to the -nu stem of the verb and it is not clear whose gratification it is.

Romaji Compilation (Sandome)

Welcome to the romaji compilation of the sandome album!
I made this page for all the singing enthousiasts who can't read kanji very well!

Kanji Transcription Compilation Page (Sandome)

暗闇の中で、私を三回呼んで?

1. 黒鏡の呪い

作編曲、作詞:Paspal
歌:葉月ゆら


I who had poor heath was living
in a room of a certain time-worn mansion.
One day I heard a rumor from outside the window.
The rumor was that by saying the name
of a certain girl three times before a mirror at midnight,
that girl will appear. So I muttered . . . . . .

(Bloody mary (x3))

The blood covered girl who appeared there smiled coldly at me
and pounced at me. My resistance was to no avail
and the girl took over me and attemps to fulfill her
only desire of "wanting to see beautiful blood".
The forbidden words that I muttered thrice transform
themselves into a tale of regret.

暗く 閉ざしていた 扉を開かせて
弱い記憶の中頼りに 呼び覚ます
日が落ちた空 月明かり飲み込む
古い鏡の中 想い馳せて

銀色の鏡面に 写った身体見て
吸い込まれた思い 響き合った
不確かな言い伝えは 心に光を灯す

呼んだ少女の名は 一度の ‘‘好奇心”
怖い物見たさ 半信半疑 故に狂おしい
満たされぬ 衝動 埋めてくれるのなら
たとえ‘‘幽霊”でもいい

期待を込めて呼び出す 最初の名前を
暗闇の鏡へと

赤く 綺麗な血は 心を魅了して
弱い身体動かせて ひたすら求め
孤独な部屋に 閉じ込めた心は
鍵をかけた 扉のように重く

反射する鏡面は 全てを拒絶して
真逆の世界から 写し合った
黒いドレスを揺らせて 祈るように呟いた

招く少女の名は 二度の “寂寥感”
寂しくて耐えられない心 故に求めていた
満たされぬ願望 叶えてくれるなら
たとえ“悪霊”でもいい

願いを込めて呼び出す 二度目の名前を
黒銀の鏡へと

白く痩せた身体 『血塗られた少女』 を呼ぶ
もう 引き返せない三度目の“呪縛”

割れて写る二人は ひとつになり
満たされた心は 後悔へと
 

2. 幸せな私の追憶

作編曲、作詞:Paspal
歌:葉月ゆら 


やせ細る身体を震わせても、誰も興味を抱かないと
幼く捨てられた私だけど、そんな事もう知ってたから
優しく手を伸ばす“老夫婦”に出会えてから、今までの世界が弾けて消えた
私に居場所を与えてくれた その笑顔、光の様に・・・・・・

『透き通る星空』 『深い海原』 『写す川』
『移り行く自然』 『風の匂い』 『景色』

“老夫婦”の話す旅の土産話に心躍らせて笑う

その日は 「それだけじゃないよ」 と、大きな鏡
渡された“贈り物”にはしゃぎ、咳き込んだ私を
心配そうに見つめて 「古い物だけど、気に入ったなら良かった」 と笑っていた

“老夫婦”は旅に出掛け、一人きり 寂しさを紛らわせる日々
心ざわついてた私だけど、鏡の前なら落ち着いた
透明な世界を写す鏡の中は、もう一人の私が笑いかけた
表裏一体の私の姿、何よりも美しかった・・・・・・

『真夜中の暗闇』 『鏡に向かう』 『一人きり』
『彼女の名』 『三回呼ぶ』 と 現れると

古い絵本に書かれた“物語”想いを馳せて今呼んだ・・・・・・

割れた鏡の向こう側に、血塗れた 『彼女』
現れたその姿見つめて、優しく微笑んだ
「やっと呼び出してくれた」 と冷たく笑う
驚いた心の隙間にとり憑いた・・・・・・

赤く熱い鮮血に魅入られた 『彼女』
遊ぶ友達が欲しい私

『さぁ これからは二人で、命尽きるまで 最高の“血祭り”を楽しみましょう?』

 3. 鮮血の斉唱 

 作編曲、作詞:Paspal 
歌:葉月ゆら

 咳を散らす口元 ふらつく足
眩暈 立ちくらんだ世界眺め
身体が求めてた 赤色の雫
 満たされない欲望 抑えた

こんな はずではなかった
あの夜から とり憑いた 『彼女』
頭の中響く声 渦巻く悪意が蝕んだ

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
 その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

—それは 抗う事の出来ない
支配された思考だったから・・・・・・

 戸惑うように 雫を舐める私は
 後悔の中 熱い鮮血の味を識った
動かなくなる“小動物”を ただ見つめては
冷めた自己嫌悪を巡らせた

汚れ散らす口元 赤く染まる
鏡 映りこんだ自分眺め
身体が覚えてた 赤色の果実
鳴り止まない 声は続いてた

苦く 錆びた鉄のように
広がる味 興奮覚えた
この悪夢を祓おうと 招いた神父に手をかける

 “鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
 その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

—祈り 捧げる 光の十字 黒く深い闇が包み込む・・・・・・

貪るように 雫を啜る私は
本能のまま 歪む牙を突きたて笑う
冷たくなった“神父”を ただ見下ろして
熱く滲む涙を零した

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め上げろ!
その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい!”

——耳を 塞いで慟哭しても
響き渡る 鳴り止まない声

 狂いそうな世界で叫ぶ私は
背徳の中 罪悪感 もう戻らない
凍り付いた願いに 別れを告げて
赤く染まる涙を流した

4. 血塗られた彼女の追憶 

作編曲、作詞:Paspal
歌:葉月ゆら



さらさら と 輝く長い 髪をなびかせて
ぎらぎら と 光溢れる 道歩いた
ひらひら と スカートの裾 揺らし進む私は
くらくら と 倒れるほどに 夢抱いていた

満たされてた世界は 変わらないと 信じていた
赤く染まった 花びらを見つめて
気付かずに 響いていた 汽笛の音
“私”の命 終わりを告げた

ゆらゆら と 彷徨う命“自死体”見下ろした
きらきら と 撒き散らしてる 赤い雫
ちらちら と 覗いた情緒 美しいと思った
はらはら と こぼれた涙 悲しくは無くて

私が消え 世界は 何も変わる事はなくて
一人彷徨い 居場所を求めてた
私の名 呼び出す声 響き渡る
手繰り寄せ 見つけた

呼んでくれた少女の声は 私を導いた
細すぎる その身体に近づき
蝕むように 夢を喰らい尽くした

『似たもの同士 居心地の良い貴女の
その命 尽き果てるまで 私と楽しみましょう?』

二人で求め 二人で過ごした日々は
甘く燃えるような 幻想に変わり 快感に気付く

呼んでくれた少女の口は 私の声のまま
巻き込んだ その“死体”に近づき
蝕むように 肉を食い散らかした

『似たもの同士 通じ合うこの私と
その命 震えるほどの 興奮を脳裏に刻みましょう?』


5. 絶望の四重奏

作編曲、作詞:Paspal
歌:葉月ゆら


沈みゆく 静寂をかき消した
止まない声の“輪舞曲”
曖昧に落ちてゆく先で 永久に響いてた
たどりつく世界の 未来さえも
余さずに 何処までも 逃がさないと

闇の中で 疼く衝動抑えても
身体は 快楽を求めてた
鈍く光る刃握り 進む
“老夫婦”が帰った 寝室へ

優しい光は 凶器を照らし
“老夫婦”へ振り翳す

柔らかな 安息を引き裂いた
絶望の“四重奏”
驚愕に凍りつく瞳 私を写した
背徳の世界は 贖罪さえ
赦さずに 何時までも追い詰めてた

後悔の中 疼く衝動止められず
頭に鳴り響く 「足りない」 と
“体内”に秘めた赤色の血 気付く
何よりも赤く 美しい

迫り来る闇に 狂気を捧げ
私へ突き立てる

張り詰めた 沈黙を切り裂いた
終焉の“幻想曲”
溢れ出す真紅の泉は 絶え間なく流れ
崇高な世界を 満たす辛苦
燃え上がる狂乱に 幕を下ろす

“鮮血を求め、両手を真紅に染め、
その甘美なる行為で、私の欲望を満たすがいい”

巡り廻る“鎮魂歌”
終わらない歌を
歌い続けていた“血塗られた彼女”

解放されたと涙零し 私は天空へ昇る
繋がれた鎖 彼女の笑顔が引き戻し
沈みゆく

静寂をかき消した
止まない声の“輪舞曲”
曖昧に落ちてゆく先で 永久に響いてた
たどりつく世界の 未来さえも
余さずに 何処までも 逃がさないと

鮮血に捧ぐ三度目の黒鏡 (Senketsu ni sasagu sandome no Kokkyou) CD, Hatsuki Yura x Symholic

Hello everyone, it has been a while. As indicated in a previous post I have started on the transcription and translation of 鮮血に捧ぐ三度目の黒鏡, for short I now call it Sandome or Senketsu!
You can find the crossfade for the CD here
And you can find a post from Meriole here

Bloody Mary... Bloody Mary... Bloody.... Mary.... *sounds of a mirror shattering*
This CD is about a girl with poor health, who catches the rumour of Bloody Mary. The girl is very frail and thin and thus the girl is possessed by Mary.... Then the second song barges in, telling about how the girl was abandoned, but then adopted by a kind eldery couple. She lived happily, until the day she realised she wanted more friends and summoned Mary through the ritual.... Mary takes over and only desires to see beautiful red blood! The girls goes crazy from the ringing voice in her head.... but finally she succombs and ascends to heaven.


So, this CD is linked to both Vengel and Maisery. It is the first entry in the trilogy. While translating this CD, I might discover links that will lead to me editing my Maisery posts.


The track list is as follows:
1. 黒鏡の呪い (Kokkyou no noroi)
2. 幸せな私の追憶 (Shiawase na watashi no tsuioku)
3. 鮮血の斉唱 (Senketsu no seishou)
4.    血塗られた彼女の追憶  (Chinurareta kanojo no tsuioku)
5.    絶望の四重奏 (Zetsubou no Quartet)

I actually thought this was melody wise a pretty decent CD. Sadly Yura has given us better performances on other cds. The order in which I like the songs is as follows:
If I had to rate the songs I'd say 4>3>1>5>2. 4 was one of the first songs of Yura I had heard if I remember correctly. I am still attached to it, because it directly relates lyric wise to song 4 of Maisery (Senketsu ni sasageta joou.....). I think 2 is least catchy for me. This later changed, when I was transcribing I came to love this song!

Song 2 and 4 are inevitably linked, both songs are reminiscences, track 2 of the girl who summoned bloody mary, track 4 is that of Bloody Mary. Track 2 and 4 and 5 are also linked to the CD Maisery
I will translate the titles as follows:
1. The curse of the black mirror
2. The recollection of my happy times
3. Unison of fresh blood
4. The recollection of the blood smeared woman
5. The quartet of despair

 Edit 16/01/2021: Official title of the CD as licensed by Osu. It's not "kuro kagami" but it is "kokkyou"

Maisery - Translation and Romaji

The final vocal track of this CD is the song "Maisery. This translation is pretty experimental in my opinion, since I am not sure if it is completely correct and if more stanzas should be connected.

This was one train of a song, the intertwining voicelines were very beautiful. The song is about Vengel and Mary fighting. Vengel tries to accomplish her tasks, by saving the girl. She wants to save her by freeing the evil spirit of Bloody Mary. They put up a fight, which is a really tough one. Vengel probably also sees something from Mary's own past, a déjà vu, which she tries to lock away. I think Vengel here tries to lock Mary and separate her from the girl, but she (Vengel) gets overwhelmed by the strength of the feeling and needs to continue fighting. Eventually she succeeds, the girl releases Mary and she becomes an angel. Mary wandered forever in her blood stained fate.

The black text is from the view of Bloody Mary/The girl Bloody Mary possesses (sung by Yura). The Magenta text is from the view of the Mechanical Angel/Vengel (sung by Lalue). To enhance reading comfort, I do not use blue colour for romaji neither do I use the red colour for translation.

 同じ《幻想》を貪る少女 鮮血と快楽を求め
心通じ合うから  身体に取り憑いた

onaji 《yume》 wo musaboru shoujo  senketsu to kairaku wo motome

The girl who indulged in the same 《fantasies (dreams)》,  seeked pleasure and fresh blood
because I understood her heart, I possessed her body

 悲痛な叫びを上げ 怯え許しを乞うた

tamashii sae shibari tsukerare kusari ni tsunagareta shoujo wa
hitsuu na sakebi wo age  obieyurushi wo kouta

I tied the girl in chains, to only restrain her soul
she let out a scream of intense sadness, while panicking, she begged for forgiveness

揺れる世界二人きり 永遠に続くと信じてた
機械の天使が邪魔をして 未来を壊した

yureru sekai futari kiri   towa ni tsudzuku to shinjiteta
kikai no tenshi ga jama wo shite mirai wo kowashita 

Just the two of us, in a wavering world, they believed it would continue into eternity
but the mechanical angel interfered, but I destroyed their future
 鍵を掛けた人生の中 悪夢のような記憶
 遂に出会った 本心で分かり合える友達

kagi wo kaketa jinsei no naka   akumu no you na kioku
tsui ni deatta    honshin de wakariaeru tomodachi

During her life, she locked away a nightmarish memory
in the end she met a friend, who could understand her true feelings

羽ばたいて 縛り付けて この翼が 私の鎖が

襲う翳す喘ぐ握る この信念に
奔る背く背負う 火花を散らす
揺るがぬ決意の果てに・・・・・・

yuruganu ketsui no hate ni......

spreading out my wings, my chains restrain me
I let out a flash of light into the sky
Attacking,  holding over my head,  struggling, grasping this belief
Running, Infringing, carrying on my back, I scatter sparks
To the end of an unwavering decision......

この世界の摂理を乱す 凍りつく笑顔の《悪霊
時計の針を戻し 過去を覗き込んだ

kono sekai no  setsuri wo midasu kooritsuku egao no 《ghost
 tokei no hari wo modoshi kako wo nozokikonda

A freezing laugh of  an 《evil spirit (ghost)》, it attempts to disturb the providence in this world
But, I turn back the hands of the clock and I look into her past

纏う罪の影に隠れた 悲しみと狂気の軌跡が
無垢な女王の心を 鮮血に染め上げた

matou tsumi no kage ni kakureta  kanashimi to kyouki no kiseki ga
mukuna ou no kokoro wo  senketsu ni someageta

The traces of grief and insanity hid in the shadow cladded in sin,
The pure heart of the queen was now fully dyed in fresh blood

暴く世界 鮮烈に 幕を下ろした追想は
機械の翼を軋ませて 胸がざわついた

abaku sekai senretsu ni   maku wo oroshita tsuisou wa
kikai no tsubasa wo kishimasete   mune ga zawatsuita

Upon exposing a striking world, lowering the curtain on my reminiscence
my mechanical wings creak, my chest becomes decomposed

鍵が掛かる頭の中で ある筈のない《既視感
制御できない感情が 押し寄せてくる前に

kagi ga kakaru atama no naka de aru hazu no nai  《déjà vu
seigyo dekinai kanjou ga oshiyosete kuru mae ni

Inside her head, a certain unlikely 《déjà vu》 becomes locked,
before I become overwhelmed by an uncontrollable feeling

時を越え 導かれて この記憶が 私の心が
空へ穿つ煌き
塞ぐ穢す拒む刻む その激情に
描く願う歌う その衝動を
宿した殺意の果てに・・・・・・

This memory passes through time, my heart is being guided, 
a glimmer passes through the sky
Blocking, Violating, declining, shredding
Sketching, Wishing, Singing,
I carry those urges from your fury  
to make an end to the murderous intent

どんな形でも良いと 愛を求めていた
理解が出来ず溢れる心 もう止まらないから

donna katachi demo ii to    ai wo motometeita
rikai ga dekizu afureru kokoro  mou tomaranai kara

I seeked for affection, any form was fineBecause I am be able to understand the overflowing feelings I cannot stop anymore


(もう なにもわからない!

君さえいればいい

If I only you were there....)

羽ばたいて 縛り付けて この翼が 私の鎖が 空に放つ閃き
 襲う翳す喘ぐ握る この信念に
叫ぶ叫ぶ戻す 時計の針を 記憶に閉じ込めた・・・・・・

sakebu sakebu modosu tokei no hari wo kioku ni tojikometa......

spreading out my wings, my chains restrain me
I let out a flash of light into the sky
Attacking,  holding over my head,  struggling, grasping this belief
Screaming, Screaming, Turning back,
I locked the hands of the clock into my memory......

悪霊から開放された 哀れな少女の手を
神の元へと導いて やがて天使となった

akuryou kara kaihousareta awarena shoujo no te wo 
kami no moto e to michibiite yagate tenshi to natta 

The hand of the pitiful girl was released from the evil spirit 
she was guided to the side of the god, and eventually she became an angel

過去を彷徨う永遠に 血塗られた運命を・・・・・・
kako wo samayou eien ni chinurareta unmei wo......

Eternally wandering in the past.... was the queen with her blood smeared fate.....



-------------------------------------------------------------
Translation notes:

- I took a lot of freedom in my translations, for example, using a perspective from both Vengel and Mary. I also translated many stanzas not so literally. Therefore I won't be making a remark on my translations of most stanza.

- 銀さんいればいい ( i can't catch what Yura says exactly)
ginsan irebaii) I think Yura refers to Vengel with silver, although it's a stretch. This is not in the booklet.

- The booklet dictates 開放, but I think 解放 is more logical.

鮮血に捧ぐ女王 (senketsu ni sasagu joou) - The Queen dedicated to Fresh Blood -Translation and romaji

This song seems to be a continuation on the songs 血塗られた彼女の追憶 and 鮮血の斉唱 from the sandome album! This song was actually very hard to transcribe, many archaic and hard words are in this song.

So this song describes the growing bloodlust of Mary (with her hunt on protestants) and her forming a contract with a girl who summoned her. I assume this girl was calling not her via the mirror, as in the legend of Bloody Mary, but instead was killed by a train and had a strong last desire to achieve the same as Bloody Mary. Thus the girl, who was ran over by the train and Mary's spirit fused.


異教の手が翳すは 支配の空
その祈りがただ 己の誠に鎖をかけても
纏わりつく悪意を絶ち切るため
奪い合おう 救済さえ届かぬ底で

ikyou no te ga  kazasu wa shihai no sora
sono inori ga tada onore no makoto ni kusari wo kakete mo
matowaritsuku akui wo tachikiru tame
ubaiaou kyuusai sae todokanu soko de

The hands of heathenism hold the domination over the sky
Although those prayers only tie my fidelty in chains,
which become coiled around, for the sake of eridicating malice
As long as they confess for salvation, they can get away with it

縛り 詰り 痛み 制裁
許しは無し 魔女を狩り
抉り 咽び 啜り
真紅に輝く宝石

shibari najiri itami seisai
yurushi wa nashi majo wo kari
eguri musebi susuri
shinku ni kagayaku houseki  

binding, scolding, pain, sanctions
no forgiveness, hunting witches
perturbing, smothering, slurping
A gemstone glittering in deep crimson


滅びの歌を口ずさむ 血塗られた女王は
気付かぬ高揚 重ねる妄想
《鮮血》に取り憑かれた
響き奏でた旋律は『復讐の聖譚曲』
禁忌の記憶に刻んだ快楽
殺戮の道 選んだ

horobi no uta wo kuchizusamu chi nurareta ou wa
kizukanu kouyou kasaneru mousou
《aka》ni toritsukareta
hibiki kanadeta senritsu wa 『fukushuu no oratorio
kinki no kioku ni kizanda kairaku
satsuriku no michi eranda 

The queen, who was smeared with blood, was humming a song of destruction
Not realising the exaltation, heaping up her delusions, she became obsessed with
《fresh blood (red)
The melody that resounded was the『Oratorio of Revenge』
The pleasure was ticked away by her troublesome memory
and she chose the path of massacre


許されない情炎 鏡の中
映り込んだ もう一人の自分の姿を見つめて
友情さえ知らずに歩んできた
狂気の中 一人きりで愛を求めた

yurusarenai jouen  kagami no naka
utsurikonda   mou hitori no jibun no sugata wo mitsumete 
yuujou sae shirazu ni ayundekita 
kyouki no naka  hitorikiri de ai wo motometa

The mirror reflected another her,  who stared at back her figure with unforgivabe burning passion
If only she had known friendship...
She followed the path of madness
and all alone she seeked love


命 鏡 黒に染め逢い
光が指し 死の香り
思い 逃避 直ぐに暗闇
弾ける飛ぶ未来

inochi kagami kuro ni someai
hikari ga sashi    shi no kaori
omoi touhi sugu ni kurayami
hajikeru tobu mirai

"My life, my mirror, let's dye it black!
light is a hindrance, the scent of death!

Feelings, escaping, soon everything will burst with darkness"
Her future vanished


呪いの歌を口ずさむ 血塗られた女王は
廃れた伝承 求めた愛情
永遠を望んだ
叫び紡いだ旋律は『狂乱の前奏曲』
轢かれた身体に惹かれた魂
び合い二人は出会う

noroi no uta wo kuchizusamu    chi nurareta ou wa
sutareta denshou motometa aijou 
eien wo nozonda
sakebitsumuida senritsu wa 『kyouran no prelude』
hikareta karada ni                       hikareta tamashii
yobiai futari wa deau

The queen, who was smeared with blood, was humming a song of destruction
She abandoned the old traditions, seeking for affection she desired for eternity
The melody that was assembled by her screams was the『Prelude of Madness』
To the run-over body, the attracted soul was summoned
and thus the two met


 One day, I was walking on the way during bloodletting.
I was killed by a train and lost my life while being admired the view of red-stained petals.
Even if losing my life, the world would not change. I came close to a girl who called me....

 二人で求め 二人で過ごした日々は
甘く燃えるような 幻想を見せて 快感を与えた

futari de motome   futari de sugoshita hibi wa
amaku moeru you na gensou wo misete kaikan wo ataeta

Together they saught, the days, they spent together
They showed their sweetly burning fantasies and they felt pleasant...


喚んでくれた少女に歌う 血塗られた女王は
飛び立つ時空で 描いた世界で
《鮮血》に取り憑かれた
やがて最後の旋律は『絶望の四重奏』
 禁忌の記憶に刻んだ快楽
呼び醒まし今歌おう

yondekureta shoujo ni utau chi nurareta ou wa
tobitatsu jikuu de egaita sekai de
《aka》 ni toritsukareta
 yagate saigo no senritsu wa 『zetsubou no quartet』
kinki no kioku ni kizanda kairaku 
yobisamashi ima utaou

Singing to the girl who had summoned her, was the queen, who was smeared with blood
jumping up from another space-time, from the world that she had depicted
She became obsessed with
《fresh blood (red)
In the end it was time for the last melody, the『The Quartet of Despair』
The pleasure was ticked away by her troublesome memory
she was awakened and now she sings....

Translation notes:

-  異教の手が翳すは 支配の空
I am not completely sure of my translation of this stanza, in any case the heathens are the protestants here.

- 奪い合おう 救済さえ届かぬ底で
I imagine they (the heathens/protestants) are doing unforgivable things (reaching the bottom) and can get away with it by begging for salvation via confession in the church(struggle for salvation).

- 魔女を狩り
This might be a reference to the Sandome album, i will expand on this when I translate Sandome.

-  聖譚曲 does not exist in the dictionaries I use, but when I deduce the meaning from the compounds apart I get "Holy + talk + song". Yura sings something "Oratorio".
Oratorio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oratorio
Another thing I noticed, if I take a certain reading of those words, you can read it as "Seitankyoku". Try to pronounce the first two characters... 666!

- 廃れた伝承 求めた愛情
永遠を望んだ

I assume this actually is like this: 永遠(に)求めた愛情を望んだ
(the chiasm!) She wished for the love she seeked to be eternal.

- 轢かれた身体に 惹かれた魂
they are both romanised as hikareta, yet other ways of writing. this is a wonderful detail!

- 絶望の四重奏 (zetsubou no quartet) is a song in the Album " 鮮血に捧ぐ三度目の黒鏡"
