The only actual song in the album! I think it has a lot in common with Hikari to Yami no Fragment. Good song. I love the interwining voice lines at the chorus. I have translated in such a way that the parts that are sung together fit into the part that has been sung solo!
悠久を紡いだ精霊たちが住まう
不思議な力に祝福された 閉ざされし世界
yuukyuu wo tsumuida seireitachi ga sumau
fushigi na chikara ni shukufuku sareta tozasareshi sekai
in which spirits live who have spun through eternity
A closed world
which has been blessed by mysterious powers
穢れなき者は 神に祈りを捧げ
囚われし者は 狂気を秘めて…
kegarenaki mono wa kami ni inori wo sasage
torawareshi mono wa kyouki wo himete...
The pure ones dedicate their prayers to god
The prisoners hide their lunacy...
光が躍る天空に 闇の魔紋を描けば
まだ知らぬ「異界への扉」が開く
hikari ga odoru sora ni yami no mamon wo egakeba
mada shiranu "ikai e no tobira" ga hiraku
If you draw a dark magic crest in the sky where light dances
a "door to" a yet unknown "underworld" will open
神秘の中で囁く…
小さな幻想の欠片は 架せられし少女を導き
風に乗せた旋律が 静かに共鳴し刻まれてく
精霊は歌い 再会を願う…
深淵に手を伸ばせば 二つの境界が交わり
たとえ虚ろな世界でも 新しい夢を紡ぎだせる
shinpi no naka de sasayaku...
chiisana gensou no kakera wa kaserareshi shoujo wo michibiki
kaze ni noseta senritsu ga shizuka ni kyoumeishi kizamareteku
seirei wa utai saikai wo negau
shinen ni te wo nobaseba futatsu no kyoukai ga majiwari
tatoe utsuro na sekai demo atarashii yume wo tsumugidaseru
Whispering in mysteriousness...
Small shards of illusion arrange themselves and lead the girl
a melody carried by the wind quietly resonates and is engraved...
the spirits sing and wish for a reunion...
If you reach your hands towards the abyss, two boundaries cross
even in an empty world like that, new dreams can be weaved
あの地平線の向こうには 何が見えるのだろう?
永遠に彷徨い 物語を奏で続ける 至純のエル・ナ・ディア
ano chiheisen no mukou ni wa nani ga mieru no darou?
towa ni samayoi monogatari wo kanadetsudzukeru shijun no el'na dia
What would you see beyond the horizon?
El'Na Dia of absolute purity
Wandering forever and continuing to sing the tale of
hatenaki sekai e hito to mahou wo tsunagu
seirei no chikara
sore wa hikari ni yami ni mo kyoumei suru
El'Na dia no gensou
Connecting people and magic to an endless world
the power of the spirits
that is where light and darkness resonate
the fantasy of El'Na Dia
光が躍る天空に 闇の魔紋を描けば
まだ知らぬ「異界への扉」が開く
hikari ga odoru sora ni yami no mamon wo egakeba

If you draw a dark magic crest in the sky where light dances

小さな幻想の欠片は 架せられし少女を導き

精霊は歌い 再会を願う…
誰もが知る戯曲は 終わりなき旅の舞台で
やがて滅ぶ運命でも 最後は奇跡に辿り着ける
shinpi no saki he izanau...
chiisana gensou no kakera wa kaserareshi shoujo wo michibiki

Inviting beyond mysteriousness...
Small shards of illusion arrange themselves and lead the girl
a melody carried by the wind quietly resonates and is engraved...
the spirits sing and wish for a reunion...
A play that everyone knows is the stage of an endless journey
Even though everyone's fate is to perish, in the end the miracle will be reached
あの地平線の向こうには 何が見えるのだろう?
永遠に彷徨い 物語を奏で続ける 至純のエル・ナ・ディア

Wandering forever and continuing to sing the tale of

エル・ナ・ディア幻想譚 ~闇の邂逅 (El'Na Dia Gensoutan ~ Yami no Kaikou) - El'Na Dia Fantasia ~ Encounter in the Dark - CD Presentation Page
The door to fantasy, has been opened.
*Melusine's theme plays*
Feeling a nostalgic power, this surely is that person's... ah... there is no doubt. Brought by the one who rules the abyss, a wave of darkness. Cladded in a darkness-coloured dress, drawing magic crests...
To this place, decorated with blue roses made with that forbidden magic, I have been summoned.
People and spirits, an encounter in the darkness. A place so dark, an abyss light doesn't reach, but that is a place where the spirits of darkness feel at home.
If you listen closely, you can hear the silent darkness play a beautiful melody...
The door of fantasies has been opened...
(from track 1: 闇を伝う旋律 (Yami wo Tsutau Senritsu) - A melody that tells darkness)
Yes, a very nostalgic power. The power of translation. Welcome back. It has been a long long long while since I last posted. This has its reason. I went to Japan for a month. I have been at M3-51, I have actually met Noël and Sayu from -LostFairy- I think haha. I have also shaken hands with Lyse from Ariabl' eyes and Rena I think? Hatsuki Yura was nowhere to be found. I have met Wasabeep, Shirosaki Aya, Tatsh, Tsukagoshi, Katakiri Rekka, Tsukino, Aitsuki Nakuru, Sennzai, Natsume from Mistoria, Komatsu Rina and Paspal from Symholic and many more people I have been fan of. For their privacy I have not taken pictures sadly.
Back on topic of -LostFairy-, our dear Maousama actually was there in his maou-sama clothes and it looked great. The -LostFairy- stand was very cute, I bought more LostFairy and ArsMagna CDs and the El Na' Dia CD with the poster (It... kind of survived to the Netherlands..?) and when I looked at my CD collection I was like oh yeah, translation lol, so many things to do.

The title of this CD is El Na Dia Fantasia ~ Encounter of darkness. A CD in which Sariah Noir (Noël related Vtuber.. my theory is that it actually is Noël with a voice changer hahahahah) and Melusine meet...This CD has 1 story track (see above) and 1 vocal track, which is called El'Na Dia. The CD also contained a holographic card of saria-chan. For the sake of I also included my Melusine haha.
If you have not heard the XFD yet... check it out here!
This CD is 10/10 even though it only has 2 tracks lol. I like the intertwining voice lines in El'Na Dia! Please look forward to the translation.. soon tm!

Dancing Shadow - Romaji and Translation
The shadows of Olivia's shadow brigade are summoned and the air changes...
揺らめいて 妖艶な姿が

Flickering bewitching figures
Summon countless shadows of emptiness

Their shadows transmit light
as they disappear in the darkness and bind me
罪深く 生きた記憶も
時が経てば 色褪せるでしょう
tsumibukaku ikita kioku mo
toki ga tateba iroaseru deshou
Even the memories of my sinful life,
As the time passes, will they fade away?
‘‘それでも、拭えぬなら… 私に溺れて”

"Still, if you cannot dispel them... drown in me"

You cannot escape from the dancing shadows
‘‘動けないなら… もう、私の虜ね”
"ugokenai nara... mou, watashi no toriko ne"
"If you cannot move... then, you are already my prisoner..."

闇に消え 音も立てず 縛り付ける
sono kage wa hikari wo tsutatte
yami ni kie oto mo tatezu shibaritsukeru
Their shadows transmit light
as they disappear in the darkness and bind me

The passionate beats of your heart resound
The shadow silently draws closer... and won't let you go...

ラルヴァの幻想 - Larva no Genei - Phantoms of Larva - Romaji and Translation
What is Larva... No idea haha real larvas? The name of the city? The name of the performance hall?
空が黄昏れ 華やぐ舞台で
風のように 手を取り 見つめ 愛を囁く
旋律に委ね 揺らめく私に
魅せられたのならば 情熱の虜になれる
Sora ga tasogare hanayagu butai de

senritsu ni yudane yurameku watashi ni
miserareta no naraba jounetsu no toriko ni nareru
On a stage where the sky shines in twilight and lights are bright
Like the wind, I take your hand and I look at you as I whisper my love
Surrender yourself to the melody and me, swaying
If you are enchanted, you will be captivated by my burning passion
fuuu huu haaa haaa
aaaa haaa haaa haaa haa
‘‘軽やかに、踊りましょう”
リズムを刻み 投げキッスをしながら
‘‘艶やかに、踊りましょう”

rizumu wo kizami nagekissu wo shinagara
"adeyaka ni, odorimashou"
koyoi wa amai yume ni yoishireru...
"Let's dance lightly"
Ticking away with the rhythm, while we blow air kisses
"Let's dance elegantly"
Tonight we will be entranced by the sweet dreams...
彷徨える旅人は 影に抱かれて 暁に沈むでしょう
情熱の鼓動に 爪弾かれた「戯曲」が たとえ淡い「幻想」でも
samayoeru tabibito wa kage ni idakarete akatsuki ni shizumu deshou

A wandering traveler, embraced by the shadows, will sink away in the dawn
Haa, even if this "stage play" is just a fleeting "fantasy" strummed by the beat of my passion...
嗚呼… 影身に色付く劣情
それを愛と呼ぶなら きっと幸せでしょう
優しさに飢えた あなたの心は
何も出来ないまま 私におぼれてゆくの
aa... kage mi irodzuku retsujou

yasashisa ni ueta anata no kokoro wa
nanimo dekinai mama watashi ni oboreteyuku no
Ahh, the lust that colours your shadow
if you can call that love, you'll surely be happy
your heart, hungry for kindness
is drowning in me, without being able to do anything
‘‘軽やかに、踊りましょう”
エールの先に 投げキッスをしながら
‘‘艶やかに、踊りましょう”
朝まで 甘い夢は終わらない…
"karoyaka ni, odorimashou"
eeru no saki ni nagekissu wo shinagara
"adeyaka ni, odorimashou"
asa made amai yume wa owaranai...
"Let's dance lightly"
if we blow air kisses at the end of a yell
"Let's dance elegantly"
The sweet dreams won't end until the morning...
燃え上がる炎のような 想いの鎖は 愛憎へと変わるでしょう
情熱の鼓動に 爪弾かれた「戯曲」が たとえ淡い「幻想」でも

haa jounetsu no kodou ni tsumabikareta "gikyoku" ga tatoe awai "gensou" demo
Like blazing flames, a chain of feelings will turn into love and hate
Haa, even if this "stage play" is just a fleeting "fantasy" strummed by the beat of my passion...
嗚呼… 影身に色付く劣情
それを愛と呼ぶなら きっと幸せでしょう
魅惑の舞踏は あなたの心を
永遠に縛りつける ラルヴァの幻想となる
aa... kage mi irodzuku retsujou
sore wo ai to yobu nara kitto shiawase deshou
miwaku no butou wa anata no kokoro wo
towa ni shibaritsukeru raruva no gensou to naru
Ahh, the lust that colours your shadow
if you can call that love, you'll surely be happy
the enchanting dance that binds your heart
forever, will become the fantasy of Laluva
堕ちてゆく... 虚無の果てまでも
ochite yuku... kyomu no hate made mo
Even... if you fall into the ends of nothingness

彷徨える旅人は 影に抱かれて 暁に沈むでしょう
情熱の鼓動に 爪弾かれた「戯曲」が たとえ淡い「幻想」でも
嗚呼… 影身に色付く劣情
それを愛と呼ぶなら きっと幸せでしょう
優しさに飢えた あなたの心は
何も出来ないまま 私におぼれてゆくの
‘‘軽やかに、踊りましょう”
エールの先に 投げキッスをしながら
‘‘艶やかに、踊りましょう”
朝まで 甘い夢は終わらない…
燃え上がる炎のような 想いの鎖は 愛憎へと変わるでしょう
情熱の鼓動に 爪弾かれた「戯曲」が たとえ淡い「幻想」でも
嗚呼… 影身に色付く劣情
それを愛と呼ぶなら きっと幸せでしょう
魅惑の舞踏は あなたの心を
永遠に縛りつける ラルヴァの幻想となる
堕ちてゆく... 虚無の果てまでも
La Primavera
一面に咲く花で飾られた 色鮮やかなこの場所で
夢を彩る人たちが 輪になって収穫の祈りを
教会の鐘の音が鳴り響き 人が行き交うこの場所で
飄々とした吟遊詩人が 旅の欠片を紡ぎ始める
華やぐ街を歩いて 何となく耳をすませば
楽しげに踊る少女たちの 歌声が聞こえる
優しく奏でる風の音色が 春の訪れを告げる
変わらない情景を 慈しむように
運命の女神は 無垢な願いを叶えた
花びら舞い 街を春色に染め上げて…
永遠に踊る輪舞曲
教会の鐘の音が鳴り響き 人が行き交うこの場所で
ハッ と驚かせた道化師が 歓声を呼び 笑い続ける
華やぐ街を歩いて 何となく耳をすませば
楽しげに踊る少女たちの 歌声が聞こえる
優しく奏でる風の音色が 春の訪れを告げる…
祝福に満ちた 小さな奇跡は 光の「戯曲」を描く
いつか見た 終わりなき「幻想」のように
運命の女神は 無垢な願いを叶えた
花びら舞い 街を春色に染め上げて…
永遠に踊る輪舞曲
‘‘語り続けられた、春の物語”
Soirée
月の綺麗な今宵は 共に闇の中へ…
闇の時間に「不思議な世界」で 人知れず開かれる
光を纏った可憐な乙女は 目も眩む華やかな舞台へ…
煌びやかドレスで着飾って 宝石を散りばめて
鏡の前でふわりと回れば 特別な「お姫様」になる
軽やかなステップで 螺旋階段を駆け上がる
響く音色に合わせ 高らかに 優雅に ヒールを鳴らす
咲き誇る薔薇のように舞いながら 全ての視線を奪い去るの
誰もが羨まほどに 美しくなりたい… 嗚呼
真夜中の舞踏会 夜が明けるまで踊りましょう
響く音色に合わせ 高らかに 優雅に ヒールを鳴らす
咲き誇る薔薇のように舞いながら 消えない魅惑の夢を歌うの
誰もが羨まほどに 美しくなれるわ... きっと
闇の時間に「不思議な世界」で 人知れず開かれる
光を纏った可憐な乙女は 目も眩む華やかな舞台へ…
Dancing Shadow
揺らめいて 妖艶な姿が
呼び覚ます 虚ろな無数の影
その影は 光を伝って
闇に消え 音も立てず 縛り付ける
罪深く 生きた記憶も
時が経てば 色褪せるでしょう
‘‘それでも、拭えぬなら… 私に溺れて”
この「戯曲」を演じるため 輝き続けた
今宵も夢を抱き 影と共に踊る
漆黒に染まる舞台で
‘‘動けないなら… もう、私の虜ね”
その影は 光を伝って
闇に消え 音も立てず 縛り付ける
情熱の鼓動が 鳴り響き
静かに迫る影身が… あなたを… 離さない
この「戯曲」を演じるため 輝き続けた
今宵も夢を抱き 影と共に踊る
「幻想」の彼方まで
夢幻アリステイル
いつもと変わらぬ 退屈な時間が過ぎてく
鏡を見つめ一人呟く...``何処へ行けるのかな?”
不思議な光が キラキラと私を導く
鏡の向こう側に飛び込む 「おとぎ話」
‘‘胸を刺す苦しみや悲しみは
闇の中に 捨ててしまえばいい”
幻のような 新しい世界で探すよ 夢の続きを
広がる 空白の地図 描きながら
鳥のように 空を羽ばたく... 何処へでもいけるから
たとえ 明日への道に迷っても
軌跡の果て 確かめるまで 歌い続ける...
散りばめられた 夢の欠片が 私を彩る
誰にも邪魔されることない 「おとぎ話」
‘‘追憶も心の鎖も
光の中で 解き放てるから”
幻のような 新しい世界に刻むよ 夢のすべてを
広がる空白の地図描きながら
闇を祓い 光が射す... 私だけの楽園
そして 悠久の時間が流れても
至純の歌で物語を 紡ぎ続ける
このまま... 夢の彼方へ...
戯曲幻想メルヴェイユ (Gikyokugensou Merveilles) - CD Presentation Page
Merry Christmas, Happy birthday Noël! I hereby present you the presentation page of -LostFairy-'s third Cross Fantasia!
I just finished my Symholic x Xorsizer stuff so I almost wanted to type X-fantasia hahahaha! This CD is a cross-over between the Madrigale CD and a new character named Olivia. The two girls meet in a bar and drink... I remember making a preview post of the -LostFairy- streams long ago and Noël made the remark that Alisha is only 18 and can't drink, but as it is another world it is all fine!! I think back then I also joked about their boobs being huge, Olivia being an F cup but looking much bigger than Alisha with her G cup LOL. I can't believe that announcement came out before Ciel de Miel, it feels like an eternity ago.
I'm not going to re hype as much as I would, neither will I link the crossfade here, as I already made a hype post in October... So let's get to business.
The story has been translated here
The tracks have been uploaded on Spotify by the way

This CD is very good with good gothic vibes! I guess I like the songs in order: 12>10>02>06>04>14>08
The Hungarian Dance no 05 reference in Dancing Shadow haha, I sometimes don't know why I have that much classical knowledge, I guess it's just me having been a violinist until my mid teens. Only
track 10 and 14 are remakes from the Madrigale CD. Rest is all original
iirc!
I don't think I will re-translate Mugen Alicetale and Soirée, the differences are quite minimal, there is another voice line by Alisha in Soirée and a slightly different way of denoting the lyrics. Mugen Alicetale is the same, except for that the lyrics are written down on a different way as well (will be reflected in the kanji transcription for both songs).

Necrofesta ~死の舞踏~ (Necrofesta ~Shi no Butou~) - Necrofesta ~Danse Macabre~ - Romaji and Translation
Great track! Again the spoken lines have been written out partially in kanji due to being incomplete in the booklet. These lines are the ultimate revenge lines for Priscilla:
今宵は死の祝祭・・・
自らが殺めた者たちの手で、冥府に誘われるがいいわ
Tonight is the festival of death...
It would be nice if I was lead to the underworld, by the hands of those that have killed someone theirselves
"Those who have killed someone themselves". She means the people who slaughtered her village people.
I chose the translation "Danse Macabre" (French for death dance) because it sounds quite elegant. And with this song the story of Priscilla and her revenge is concluded!
不気味な程の 静寂の中
黒く輝く 刃を握り
虚ろな影が 闇に蠢く
始めよう 死の祝祭を...
bukimi na hodo no seijaku no naka
kuroku kagayaku yaiba wo nigiri
utsuro na kage ga yami ni ugomeku
hajime you shi no shukusai wo...
Inside an eerie silence,
she grasps a blackly shining blade
her hollow shadow crawls in the darkness
"Let's start the festival of death"
私欲の代償
愚かな「生」者に 冷たい「死」の導きを
shiyoku no daishou
oroka na 「sei」sha ni tsumetai「shi」no michibiki wo
An indemnification of selfish desire
"I shall guide the foolish 'living' beings to cold 'death'"
此処に蘇る... 復讐の焔 死の鼓動
冥府が手招き 血と肉が舞う
それはまるで 死の舞踏... 「灰」に宿る憎しみが
全てを飲み込み 少女は一人 微笑む
koko ni yomigaeru... fukushuu no hi shi no kodou
meifu ga temaneki chi to niku ga mau
sore wa marude shi no butou... 「hai」ni yadoru nikushimi ga
subete wo nomikomi shoujo wa hitori hohoemu
Here she revives... The flame of vengeance, the heartbeat of death
The realm of the death beckons, blood an flesh dance
It is almost like a danse macabre... the hate that is borne by the 'ashes'
Apprehending everything, a girl laughs all alone
Uhuhu, shisha wa kyoufu wo kanjinai no
Uhuhu, don't the death feel fear?
今宵は死の祝祭・・・
自らが殺めた者たちの手で、冥府に誘われるがいいわ
koyoi wa shi no shukusai...
mizukara ga ayameta monotachi no te de, meifuu ni izanawareru ga ii wa
Tonight is the festival of death...
It would be nice if I was lead to the underworld, by the hands of those that have killed someone theirselves
無慈悲な 女神の抱擁
愚かな「生」者に 冷たい「死」の導きを
mujihi na megami no houyou
oroka na 「seisha」ni tsumetai「shi」no michibiki wo
The embrace of a merciless goddess
"I shall guide the foolish 'living' beings to cold 'death'"
此処に蘇る... 復讐の焔 死の鼓動
冥府が手招き 血と肉が舞う
それはまるで 死の舞踏... 「灰」を纏う死者たちは
全てを成し遂げ 夜明けの光を迎え
koko ni yomigaeru... fukushuu no hi shi no kodou
meifu ga temaneki chi to niku ga mau
sore wa marude shi no butou... 「hai」wo matou shishatachi wa
subete wo nashitoge yoake no hikari wo mukae
Here she revives... The flame of vengeance, the heartbeat of death
The realm of the death beckons, blood an flesh dance
It is almost like a danse macabre... the dead that adorn themselves in 'ashes'
Fulfilling everything, she welcomed the light of the dawn
永遠の眠りを さぁ...
静かに灰となり 土に還るの...
towa no nemuri wo saa...
shizuka ni hai to nari tsuchi ni kaeru no...
Now, let's sleep eternally
Quietly turn into ashes and return to the earth...
黒薔薇の葬送 (kuro bara no sousou) - Funeral of a Black Rose - Romaji and Translation
This is my favourite track of the album. The violins, the drums, awesome. I think this song actually symbolises the fall of Priscilla into the dark and the start of her revenge. She goes lunatic and starts reviving the people who lived inside her small town. Then she starts judging (slaughtering) those who hurt her and those around her.
死と交わる 孤独な儀式に狂い咲く 漆黒の薔薇
shi to majiwaru kodoku na gishiki ni kuruui saku shikkoku no bara
A jet-black rose mingles with death and blooms lunatically in a lonely ceremony
救いのない運命 死に絶えた世界に変わり果て
気高く悍ましい幻想に 襲われる
sukui no nai sadame shi ni taeta sekai ni kawarihate
kedakaku ozomashii gensou ni osowareru
A fate without salvation, completely changed in a died-out world
Attacked by a noble yet disgusting illusion
闇の中 ほら...死者の声
嘆きと叫びが響く
yami no naka hora... shisha no koe
nageki to sakebi ga hibiku
Hear... Inside the darkness.. the voices of the dead
Laments and screams echo
朽ちた聖母像が 惨劇をその姿で語り
気高く悍ましい幻想に 襲われる
kuchita Maria zou ga sangeki wo sono sugata de katari
kedakaku ozomashii gensou ni osowareru
The decayed Maria (holy mother) statue tells her tragedy by her appearance
Attacked by a noble yet disgusting illusion
闇の中 ほら...死者の影
揺らめく炎のように
yami no naka hora... shisha no kage
yurameku honoo no you ni
See... Inside the darkness... the shadows of the dead
Like flickering flames
嗚呼... 光の届かぬ 素敵な今宵は
愚かな者たちを屠る 裁きの時
ah... hikari no todokanu suteki na koyoi wa
oroka na monotachi wo hofuru sabaki no toki
Ah... this wonderful night, where light won't reach
tonight, it is the time of judgement, where we slaughter the fools
祈り 囁き 念じれば... 死者は 再び動き出す
崩れる 生と死の均衡… 彷徨う魂
inori sasayaki nenjireba... shisha wa futatabi ugokidasu
kuzureru sei to shi no kinkou... samayou tamashii
If you silently chant prayers and whispers... the dead will move once again
the crumbling equilibrium between life and death... spirits wander
死と交わる 孤独な儀式に狂い咲く 漆黒の薔薇
shi to majiwaru kodoku na gishiki ni kuruui saku shikkoku no bara
A jet-black rose mingles with death and blooms lunatically in a lonely ceremony
迫る 死者の群れ
舞い散る「灰」と踊る
semaru shisha no mure
maichiru 「hai」 to odoru
A crowd of the dead draws closer
They dance with the skattering "ashes"
嗚呼... 心の宿らぬ 冷たい身体に
私が与えよう 衰える憎悪の贄を
ah... kokoro no yadoranu tsumetai karada ni
watashi ga atae you tagiru zouo no nie wo
Ah... to this cold heartless body
I'll offer a sacrifice of my withering hatred
祈り 囁き 念じる... 死者は 再び動き出す
今こそ 憎しみの刃で... 冥府へ誘え
inori sasayaki nenjireba... shisha wa futatabi ugokidasu
ima koso nikushimi no yaiba de... meifu he izanae
If you silently chant prayers and whispers... the dead will move once again
Now, with this blade of hate... I invite you to the underworld
死と交わる 孤独な儀式に狂い咲く 漆黒の薔薇
shi to majiwaru kodoku na gishiki ni kuruui saku shikkoku no bara
A jet-black rose mingles with death and blooms lunatically in a lonely ceremony
Testament (Necrofesta version) - Romaji and Translation
This is a rehash from a song with the same name and melody from the first album, Aethyr. This time it is sung by Yuki and there are some minor alterations in the lyrics. A voice acting part has also been added. I think Priscilla was hidden in this forgotten cathedral and that is why she survived the slaughter of the town. She revives the ones who were important to her (she connects life and death) and starts the rest of the story. This track is my second favourite track from the album.
朽ちた聖堂に響く 古の旋律
kuchita seidou ni hibiku inishie no senritsu
Inside a forgotten cathedral, an ancient melody reverberates
小さな手を 骸に翳して唱える 禁じられし呪文
虚ろで 禍々しい感覚に支配される
chiisana te wo mukuro ni kazashite tonaeru kinjirareshi jumon
utsuro de magamagashii kankaku ni shihaisareru
Her little hands hold a skull and she chants a forbidden spell
she is guided by an ominous sensation from the void
- 畏れよ、我を –
人間は罪深く 惨劇の日々を繰り返す
「白」の戒めを「黒」が蝕み 滅びの歯車が廻る
Ergo memento mori…
- osore yo, ware wo-
hito wa tsumibukaku sangeki no hibi wo kurikaesu
「shiro」 no imashime wo 「kuro」ga mushibami horobi no haguruma ga mawaru
Ergo memento mori...
- Fear me -
People are sinners, they repeat tragic days
"Darkness(black)" gnaws at the forbidden side of "Holiness(white)"
The gears of destruction start to turn
'Remember you have to die...'
闇夜に捧ぐ 狂信者の祈りが
冷たい「死」の香りを 此処に呼び寄せる
フレア
灰を纏った少女に宿る 憎しみの炎
yamiyo ni sasagu kyoushinsha no inori ga
tsumetai 「shi」 no kaori wo koko ni yobiyoseru
hai wo matotta shoujo ni yadoru nikushimi no furea
The prayers of the zealots are devoted to the dark night
Called here by the smell of cold "death"
is a girl adorned in ashes, carrying a flame (flare) of hate
朽ちた聖堂に響く 古の旋律
kuchita seidou ni hibiku inishie no senritsu
Inside a forgotten cathedral, an ancient melody reverberates
Watashi wa meifu to gensei wo tsumugu
Inori wa yagate kami wo todoku no darou?
I connect the world of the living and the dead
I wonder if the prayers eventually reach the gods
微かに見える輝きは 死者を弔う炎か、それとも・・・
kasuka ni mieru kagayaki wa, shisha wo tomurau honoo ka, soretomo...
The faintly visible light, is it a flame to grieve for the death? Or...
- 畏れよ、我を –
神は慈悲深く 死者を眠りから呼び覚ます
「白」の戒めを「黒」が蝕み 滅びの歯車が廻る
Ergo memento mori…
- osore yo, ware wo -
kami wa jihibukaku shisha wo nemuri kara yobisamasu
「shiro」no imashime wo「kuro」ga mushibami horobi no haguruma ga mawaru
Ergo memento mori...
- Fear me -
God is full of mercy, he will awaken the dead from their sleep
"Darkness(black)" gnaws at the forbidden side of "Holiness(white)"
The gears of destruction start to turn
'Remember you have to die...'
闇夜に捧ぐ 狂信者の祈りが
冷たい「死」に魅せられ 深く堕ちてゆく
フレア
灰を纏った少女に宿る 憎しみの炎
yamiyo ni sasagu kyoushinsha no inori ga
tsumetai 「shi」 ni miserare fukaku ochiteyuku
hai wo matotta shoujo ni yadoru nikushimi no furea
The prayers of the zealots are devoted to the dark night
Fascinated by the cold "death", she fell deep
a girl adorned in ashes, carrying a flame (flare) of hate
朽ちた聖堂に響く 魂の慟哭
kuchita seidou ni hibiku tamashii no doukoku
Inside a forgotten cathedral, the laments of souls reverberate
Translation note:
虚ろで 禍々しい感覚に支配される
she is guided by an ominous sensation from the void
I wasn't so sure how to translate this. None of the standard definitions of the particle で seeme to fit well in any translation I had in mind

銀色の月を眺めて
眠れない夜に 夢を歌う
悠久の時を重ねて
色褪せぬ 永遠の夢を願う
自由に飛べる翼があれば きっと
動けないワタシでも この世界を見渡せるのに
不意に訪れた人形が そっと
灰まみれの細い指で ワタシに軽く触れたけど
可憐で儚げな少女は...
「いつか人形にも魂が宿るといいね」
小さく呟き 闇に消えてく...

冥府へ誘う灰のネクロフェスタ (Meifu he izanau hai no necrofesta) - CD Translation
HELLO READERS, I AM BACK ONCE AGAIN! Today, I present you the presentation page of the 9th Fantasia "Meifu he izanau hai no necrofesta"! Literally: "Necrofesta of ashes that invites into the underworld" eh haha, okay not translating the title. I also am in such a productive mood I am actually offer the entire CD translation to y'all!
Haven't heard the crossfade yet? Here it is!
The cover girl, Priscilla, is voiced by no other than Takahashi Rie, which you undoubtly know for her role as Emilia from Re:Zero!
Story Fragment: (I'm not so sure of this translation due to some barely audible parts and some uncommon words)
In just one night, a little town had gone to die... the people were treated like slaves... while they only wished for freedom... They only had that one wish... During that tragedy, I was hidden underground in a church... That is why I was saved. Ah... I hate those brutal hunters who stole our peacefulness... That is why I am resolved to get revenge... I wonder if you know that I'm actually a witch. Yes... Only I keep a watch on the chests of the dead. Ah... everyone has become a cold corpse... I have to give you all salvation with this unpleasant power. I am sorry... There is no other way than this. There are more than enough bones to use, I can make enough ashes from them. Let's start the ritual. Open your eyes once again. Let's fight together. Huhuhu... This is a revenge tragedy named "Funeral". A festival of the souls of those who have died.
Thou shalt remember death!

The order in which I liked the songs was 3>2>5>4. I think 3 had a very nice gothic feel to it and Yuki's performance there is so great. I love the intro, like those jumps with the violin are so awesome and the drums are sick. 2 is pretty nice and dark too. 5 also is pretty nice. 4 is not bad at all, but it kind of misses the mark with me. The song sounds a bit ethnic, but with super gothic lyrics.

Black Lolita - Romaji and Translation
REVISION 15/10/2022
I finally found out that "nigeru" just is "jet black", the latin word for it. I prefer NOT getting canceled on the internet, so I leave the romanisation of the titles and such as nigel lol. There is another version in the Arietta CD sung by Yuki. There are minor changes to the lyrics.
Instead of "nigeru no kyouen" "孤独な狂宴 (kodoku na kyouen)" is sung, lit. 'a lonely revelry'.
Another difference is that Priscilla makes a tiny appearance.
I think here she says 闇と共に 死を記憶せよ (Shi wo kiokuseyo), which I last time translated as: Thou shalt remember death!
The second time, instead of "nigeru no kyouen" , 悲劇の終焉 (Higeki no Shuuen) "The end of tragedy" is sung.
The next song is the song of the spade. I think the girl referred to in this song is Melusine, see the 7th album 呪われし亡国のメフィストフェレス), as Melusine does have a cursed eye and wears a Black (?) lolita dress, hence I'm quite certain of it. The "witch" version of Alisha in the booklet has her left eye covered with a card, so it can't be her.
This song was quite short, I have few remarks on it, but boy those drums hit nicely ;3
Translation:
恐怖を射抜く天使のように 心の強さを身に纏う
kyofu wo inuku tenshi no you ni kokoro no tsuyosa wo mi ni matou
I clad myself in the strength of my heart, like an angel that pierces through fear
今日も一人ぼっち 黒いフリルで出かけましょ
kyou mo hitoribocchi kuroi furiru de dekakemasho
Today, I'm all alone again, let's go out dressed in black frills
そうよ 冷たいその瞳が 私の中の「闇」を呼び覚ます...
souyo tsumetai sono me ga watashi no naka no 「yami」 wo yobisamasu...
Yes... My cold eye... awakens the "darkness" that slumbers inside me...
-ニゲルの狂宴-
-nigeru no kyouen-
-a jet black revelry-
貴方たちには何も見えないの?... 私の右目に宿る魔眼が
歪んだ空と この身が交わり 翼を手に入れる
anatatachi ni wa nanimo mienai no? ... watashi no migi me ni yadoru magan ga
yuganda sora to kono mi ga majiwari tsubasa wo te ni ireru
Don't you all see anything? ... the evil eye that I wear in my right eye
The distorted sky and this body will mingle and I will receive wings
孤独をも恐れぬ力の渇望...
kodoku wo mo osorenu chikara no katsubou...
A thirst for the power of not even being afraid of loneliness...
-ニゲルの狂宴-
-nigeru no kyouen-
-a jet-black revelry-
貴方たちには何も見えないの?... 私の右目に宿る魔眼が
歪んだ空と この身が交わり 高く飛び立つ
anatatachi ni wa nanimo mienai no? ... watashi no migi me ni yadoru magan ga
yuganda sora to kono mi ga majiwari takaku tobitatsu
Don't you all see anything? ... the evil eye that I wear in my right eye
The distorted sky and this body will mingle and I will fly high
黒い翼で羽ばたく乙女は 今日も
誰も見れない 闇を張り翳す 夢を見る
kuroi tsubasa de habataku otome wa kyou mo
daremo mirenai yami wo furikazasu yume wo miru
Today, the maiden dreams of a world shrouded in darkness again,
flapping her black wings
Soirée - Romaji and Translation
This song has been labeled with the "Diamond" of the cards of a deck. This is a reference to Alice in Wonderland. The word Soirée is French for evening, but in English it is more used in the context of an evening party. The first song is a nice opening to the CD. We enter an entire new world (heh, but that's the title of the 4th song/track 5) that only opens at night... This song has been translated from the point of view of Alicia.
This song appears again on the Merveilles album, this time sang by Yuki. The spoken line is different and the transcription actually is different as well but I'm not bothering to write it out twice in a translation (I did write it out like it should be in the booklet of Merveilles in the Merveilles kanji page). Issho ni Hanayaka ni is the Merveilles text.
Translation:
月の綺麗な今宵は 共に闇の中へ…
tsuki no kirei na koyoi wa tomo ni yami no naka he...
Tonight, the moon is so beautiful, let's fall into the darkness together...
さぁ、踊りましょう || 一緒に華やかに
saa, odorimashou || Issho ni hanayaka ni!
Now, let's dance || Together! Brilliantly
闇の時間に「不思議な世界」で 人知れず開かれる
光を纏った可憐な乙女は 目も眩む華やかな舞台へ…
yami no jikan ni 「fushigi na sekai」 de hitoshirezu hirakareru
hikari wo matotta karen na otome wa me mo kuramu hanayaka na butai he
When darkness falls, a "mysterious world" nobody knows of opens
Wrapped in light, a cute maiden with dazzling eyes, goes to that brilliant stage...
きらびやかなドレスで着飾って 宝石を散りばめて
レディ
鏡の前でフワリと回れば 特別な「お姫様」になる
kirabiyaka na doresu de kikazatte houseki wo chiribamete
kagami no mae de fuwari to mawareba tokubetsu na 「lady」 ni naru
Dressed up in a gorgeous dress with enlaced with gemstones
When I twirl lightly in front of the mirror, I will become a special "lady"
軽やかなステップで 螺旋階段を駆け上がる
karoyaka na suteppu de rasen kaidan wo kakeagaru
With light steps, I run up the spiral staircases
響く音色に合わせ 高らかに 優雅に ヒールを鳴らす
咲き誇る薔薇のように舞いながら 全ての視線を奪い去るの
hibiku neiro ni awase takaraka ni yuuga ni hiiru wo narasu
sakihokoru bara no you ni mai nagara subete no shisen wo ubai saru no
Fitting the sound of the music, loudly and gracefully, my heels resounds
As I dance like a fully-blooming flower, I steal away all eyes
誰もが羨まほどに 美しくなりたい
daremo ga urayama hodo ni utsukushiku naritai
"I want to be so beautiful that everyone is jealous of me"
嗚呼...
ah...
Ah...
真夜中の舞踏会 夜が明けるまで踊りましょう
mayonaka no butoukai yoru ga akeru made odorimashou
"Let's dance at the midnight ball until the dawn breaks"
響く音色に合わせ 高らかに 優雅に ヒールを鳴らす
咲き誇る薔薇のように舞いながら 消えない魅惑の夢を歌うの
hibiku neiro ni awase takaraka ni yuuga ni hiiru wo narasu
saki hokoru bara no you ni mai nagara kienai miwaku no yume wo utau no
Fitting the sound of the music, loudly and gracefully, my heels resounds
As I dance like a fully-blooming flower, I steal away all eyes
誰もが羨まほどに 美しくなれるわ... きっと
daremo ga urayama hodo ni utsukushiku nareru wa... kitto
"I will surely be so beautiful that everyone is jealous of me"
闇の時間に「不思議な世界」で 人知れず開かれる
光を纏った可憐な乙女は 目も眩む華やかな舞台へ…
yami no jikan ni 「fushigi na sekai」 de hito shirezu hirakareru
hikari wo matotta karen na otome wa me mo kuramu hanayaka na butai he...
When darkness falls, a "mysterious world" nobody knows of opens
Wrapped in light, a cute maiden with dazzling eyes, goes to that brilliant stage...
Translation note:
- さぁ、踊りましょう has been written in the booklet but not in the song itself, it is on a page

光と闇のフラグメント (Hikari to Yami no Fragment) - Fragment of Light and Darkness - Romaji and Translation
This is the only new song in the Fragment album. I like it a lot, especially the parts where the voices of Yuki and Sayu intertwine. I imagine the two girls on the cover to be the dolls that are drawn on the cover of the cd.
閉ざされた世界の中にある 物語で
互いの奇跡が 共鳴する... 光と闇の欠片
tozasareta sekai no naka ni aru monogatari de
tagai no kiseki ga kyomei suru... hikari to yami no kakera
In a closed off world, there is a certain story in which
miracles of each other resonate... A fragment of Light and Darkness
誰もいない部屋で 空白の彼方を
祈る様に ただ見つめてる
穢れのない天空に 細い手を翳して
薄れゆく 記憶を辿る
daremo inai heya de kuuhaku no kanata wo
inoru you ni tada mitsumeteru
kegare no nai sora ni hosoi te wo kazashite
usureyuku kioku wo tadoru
In an empty room, by just staring at the blank boundary
as if you were praying
stretch out your thin hand toward the immaculate sky
And follow a fading memory
物伝わぬ人形は 繋がれた糸に
白と黒は 踊り 指を絡め 身を委ねたまま
mono iwanu ningyou wa tsunagareta ito ni
shiro to kuro wa odori yubi wo karame mi wo yudaneta mama
Still dolls are connected to a thread and as if they are devoting themselves
they entwine their fingers, dancing a dance of Black and White
Ah... 煌めく二つの物語を 紡ぎ合い
「光」を放つ 欠片の中へ 導く
鳴り響く 迷いのない 不思議な旋律で
終わらない夢を 見せてあげる... 光と闇の世界
Ah... kirameku futatsu no monogatari wo tsumugiai
「hikari」 wo hanatsu kakera no naka he michibiku
narihibiku mayoi no nai fushigi na senritsu de
owaranai yume wo misete ageru... hikari to yami no sekai
Ah... Weaving together two sparkling stories
You are guided to the place amidst the released fragments of "Light"
by an echoing unwavering mysterious melody
I shall show you an endless dream... The world of Light and Darkness
青き薔薇は 今日も咲き誇るのだろうか?
世界を作りし「主」よ
永遠に近い刻を 生き続ける意味が
貴方なら 分かるのだろうか?
aoki bara wa kyou mo saki sakihokoru no darou ka?
sekai wo tsukurishi 「aruji」 yo
towa ni chikai toki wo ikitsudzukeru imi ga
anata nara wakaru no darou ka?
Will the blue roses bloom today again?
"Master", who has created this world
The meaning of living close to eternity,
would you know what that means?
物伝わぬ人形は 繋がれた糸に
白と黒は 踊り 指を絡め 想いを重ねる
mono iwanu ningyou wa tsunagareta ito ni
shiro to kuro wa odori yubi wo karame - omoi wo kasaneru
Still dolls are connected to a thread
they entwine their fingers, dancing a dance of Black and White - accumulating memories
Ah... 煌めく二つの物語を 紡ぎ合い
「闇」を纏いし 欠片の中へ 導く
鳴り響く 迷いのない 不思議な旋律で
終わらない夢を 見せてあげる... 光と闇の世界
Ah... kirameku futatsu no monogatari wo tsumugi ai
「yami」 wo matoishi kakera no naka he michibiku
narihibiku mayoi no nai fushigi na senritsu de
owaranai yume wo misete ageru... hikari to yami no sekai
Ah... Weaving together two sparkling stories
You are guided to the place amidst the fragments wrapped in "Darkness"
by an echoing unwavering mysterious melody
I shall show you an endless dream... The world of Light and Darkness
瞳を閉じて... 二人の物語が 混ざり合い
繰り返される「幻想」の中で 一つに
新しく巡り合えた 不思議な運命で
終わらない夢を 見せてあげる... 光と闇の奇跡
me wo tojite... futari no monogatari ga mazari ai
kurikae sareru 「gensou」 no naka de hitotsu ni
atarashiku meguriaeta fushigi na unmei de
owaranai yume wo misete ageru... hikari to yami no kiseki
Close your eyes... Two stories mingle together
Inside the repeated "fantasies"
you meet one, new mysterious fate
I shall show you an endless dream... The miracle of Light and Darkness

Gates of Hades - Romaji and Translation
One day, Hades wanted a wife and raided a girl, Persephone, who happened to be the daughter of the goddess Demeter (of harvest). Demeter desperately wanted her daughter back, Zeus (the king of the gods) agreed, on the condition that her daughter shouldn't have eaten anything in the underworld. Unluckily, the girl had already eaten one pit of a pomegranate and thus she couldn't come back to the earth permanently. A deal was closed then, in the spring and summer Persephone would live on the earth, her mom happy and all crops / flowers / plants would grow well. In the autumn and winter, Persephone would have to go back to her husband, Hades, in the underworld and her mother would be so sad that the crops don't grow.
I'd like to think this song is a twist on the story of Persephone and Hades. The girl wanders into the territory of death herself because she went into the labyrinth. Then she eats a fruit and becomes unable to return to the normal world. As a puppeteer, she lures more people into the dark and thus becomes the "god of nothingness".
This composition is truly nice, both Hato and Yuki's voice fit the song, their voices are both very haunting, which perfectly fits this song. I like how Noël decided to use a Harpsichord-like instrument at the beginning and then it transitions into an electrical organ with layers of chants. The drums in the chorus and post chorus are also great, they remind me of Ariabl'eyes a little haha.
Translation:
視界に暗く広がる「死」の領域に踏み込む
虚無の神秘に魅せられて 禁じられし赤い果実を
shikai ni kuraku hirogaru 「shi」 no ryouiki ni fumikomu
kyomu no shinpi ni miserarete kinjirareshi akai kajitsu wo
I step into the territory of "death" as my vision fades to black
Entranced by the mystery of nothingness, the forbidden red fruit...
“飲み込む”
"nomikomu"
"I swallow it"
忘却の霧の中で 亡者の影が揺らめく
虚無の瘴気に侵され 白い肌に風が伝う
boukyaku no kiri no naka de mouja no kage ga yurameku
kyomu no shouki ni okasare shiroi hada ni kaze ga tsutau
Inside the fog of oblivion, the shadows of the dead flicker
Invaded by the miasma of nothingness, as if the wind follows my white skin
朽ち果てた土と混ざり合い 綺麗に咲く花
光は届かず 闇に回帰するだけ・・・
kuchihateta tsuchi to mazariai kirei ni saku hana
hikari wa todokazu yami ni kaiki suru dake...
A beautifully blooming flower mingles with the rotten soil
Light is unable to reach, it can only turn to darkness...
冷たい指を掲げて 闇夜に軌跡を描く
洗礼されし呪文は 神への祈りに変わる
彷徨い堕ちた亡者は 裁きの炎に焼かれ
響く崩壊の序曲が知らせる 永遠のEclipse
tsumetai yubi wo kakagete yamiyo ni kiseki wo egaku
senrei sareshi jumon wa kami he no inori ni kawaru
samayoi ochita mouja wa sabaki no honoo ni yakare
hibiku houkai no yokyoku ga shiraseru towa no Eclipse
I raise my cold finger and draw trails in the dark night
A baptised incantation turns into a prayer towards God
The dead, who wander and have fallen, will burn in the flames of judgement
The reverberating "Overture of Destruction" warns them for an "Eternal eclipse"
凍て付いた水に縛られて 綺麗に咲く花
光は届かず 闇に回帰するだけ
itetsuita mizu ni shibararete kirei ni saku hana
hikari wa todokazu yami ni kaiki suru dake
A beautifully blooming flower, tied by frozen water
Light is unable to reach, it can only turn to darkness...
冷たい指を掲げて 闇夜に軌跡を描く
洗礼されし呪文は 神への祈りに変わる
彷徨い堕ちた亡者は 裁きの炎に焼かれ
滅びを誘う私は 虚無に愛されし「神」になる
tsumetai yubi wo kakagete yamiyo ni kiseki wo egaku
senrei sareshi jumon wa kami he no inori ni kawaru
samayoi ochita mouja wa sabaki no honoo ni yakare
horobi wo izanau watashi wa kyomu ni aisareshi 「kami」ni naru
I raise my cold finger and draw trails in the dark night
A baptised incantation turns into a prayer towards God
The dead, who wander and have fallen, will burn in the flames of judgement
I, who has been invited to ruin, became a "God", only loved by nothingness.
Translation notes:
- A beautifully blooming flower mingles with the rotten soil and A beautifully blooming flower, tied by frozen water, are basically saying the same. A beautiful girl falls into darkness and gets converted by the dark powers into a distorted god.

Strega - Romaji and Translation
"Strega" is the Italian word for witch. And witchcraft of Southern European origin is called Stregheria. Someone with deviant/different behaviour would often be connected to bad luck or incidents, as a consequence the person would be marked a witch and get punished... This is what happens in this song too. A girl who is a little different (maybe because of her heterochromia) is burnt on a witch circle, but she is strong enough to survive the judgement and probably destroys those who burnt her instead. (This is my speculation, it's not exactly clear to me either...)
Translation:
罪深き炎の中で・・・
tsumibukaki honoo no naka de...
Amidst the sinful flames...
誰も知らぬ場所でただ1人
心閉ざし 歪んだ祈りを
Endless guilty blaze
daremo shiranu basho de tada hitori
kokoro tozashi yuganda inori wo
Endless guilty blaze
I'm all alone in a place that no one knows of
I close my heart and devote distorted prayers
Endless guilty blaze
誰も知らぬ場所でただ1人
荒んだ瞳で禁忌の言葉を繰り返す
daremo shiranu basho de tada hitori
susanda me de kinki no kotoba wo kurikaesu
I'm all alone in a place that no one knows of
I repeat the forbidden words with my degenerating eyes
生きてくことさえ許されぬならば
背徳の盟約に口づけを・・・
“血に染められし物語”
ikiteku koto sae yurusarenu naraba
haitoku no meiyaku ni kuchidzuke wo...
"chi ni somerareshi monogatari"
If I am not allowed to live
I will seal this immoral pact with my lips...
"A tale dyed in Blood"
Glory Tale 深紅のStrega
「断罪」に抗うため
Regret Faith 炎を纏い 踊る 踊る
深い闇へ 堕ちてく・・・
Glory Tale shinku no Strega
「danzai」 ni aragau tame
Regret Faith honoo wo matoi odoru odoru
fukai yami he ochiteku...
(Glory Tale, Crimson Strega)
in order to resist the "judgement",
(Regret Faith) wrapped in flames, I dance and dance
and fall in a deep darkness...
忘れられし場所でただ1人
狂気に似た 悲痛の叫びを 繰り返す
wasurerareshi basho de tada hitori
kyouki ni nita hitsuu no sakebi wo kurikaesu
I'm all alone in a place that has been forgotten by everyone
I repeat screams of pain on the border of insanity
生きてく事さえ許されぬならば
背徳の盟約に口づけを・・・
“灰になるまで焼き尽くす”
ikiteku koto sae yurusarenu naraba
haitoku no meiyaku ni kuchidzuke wo
"hai ni naru made yakitsukusu"
If I am not allowed to live
I will seal this immoral pact with my lips...
"I will burn everything till ashes"
Glory Tale 深紅のStrega
「恐れ」は消え去ったけれど
Regret Faith 人の心が 思い出せない
Glory Tale Shinku no Strega
「osore」 wa kiesatta keredo
Regret Faith hito no kokoro ga omoidasenai
(Glory Tale, Crimson Strega)
My "fear" has already disappeared, but
(Regret Faith,) I can no longer remember my human heart
戻レナイ・・・
modorenai...
I cαn'τ τυρν βαck
Glory Tale 最後のStrega
「惨劇」が幕を閉じる
Regret Faith 炎と共に 崩れ 滅ぶ
永遠の闇へ 堕ちてく・・・
Glory Tale saigo no Strega
「sangeki」ga maku wo tojiru
Regret Faith honoo to tomo ni kuzure horobu
towa no yami he ochiteku...
(Glory Tale, the last Strega)
the "Tragedy" ends here
(Regret Faith), everything crumbles and is destroyed together with the flames
and falls into an eternal darkness...
Translation notes:
- I have the habit to represent the usage of katakana with the greek alphabet. Thus, I cαn'τ τυρν βαck = I can't turn back
- Maybe the bracket system is a little bit hard to understand. I'll try to explain it better here:
First Chorus:
-- "Chants" that resound throughout the chorus: Glory Tale, Crimson Strega, Regret Faith
Translation of non chanted part: In order to resist the "judgement", I dance and dance wrapped in flames and fall in a deep darkness...
Second Chorus
-- "Chants" that resound throughout the chorus: Glory Tale, Crimson Strega, Regret Faith
Translation of non chanted part: My "fear" has already disappeared, but I can no longer remember my human heart
Last Chorus
-- "Chants" that resound throughout the chorus: Glory Tale, Last Strega, Regret Faith
Translation of non chanted part: The "Tragedy" ends here, everything crumbles and is destroyed together with the flames and falls into an eternal darkness...
