[English]

Queens

Ah yeah ah yeah

Ah yeah ah yeah

Dururururu uh-huh

Ah yeah ah yeah

Ah yeah ah yeah

Yeah

Hey, here we go again

Under the shining sunlight

You smiling brightly like a child

Oh hey! In the same dream

You keep calling us back

Beyond far memories, Wonderland

We are Queens in the red castle

No need for a crown, we're born to dazzle

Together creating our Paradigm

Definitely breaking stereotypes

The pose that shines more each time

Problems? Throw them above the sky

Come on! We are makin’ the rules

‘Cause we are Queens and Kings, lift our hands higher

The more we gather, the more we shine

Even rain, strong and beautiful

A rainbow made of different colors

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Shall we start again?

That’s our Queendom, yeah

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Ladida-do Ba-badida

The moment you hold my hand

That’s our Queendom

We, we, we’re strong, nothing missing

Wake up, the answer is simple

Be boss, blow that whistle

A bigger world is watching you

Shall we throw a festival?

I hold your hand now

Now’s the time we’ve been waiting for

Show your true self

Come play, my carnival

Climax? It’s just the beginning

Watch out! We are makin’ the rules

‘Cause we are Queens and Kings, lift our hands higher

The more we gather, the more we shine

Even rain, strong and beautiful

A rainbow made of different colors

Shout even louder, we do it better

Shattering darkness, follow the light

A new color’s name is Together

It’s now or never, we got forever

‘Cause we are Queens and Kings, lift our hands higher

The more we gather, the more we shine

Even rain, strong and beautiful

A rainbow made of different colors

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Shall we start again?

That’s our Queendom, yeah

Ladida-do Ba-badida

Ladida-do Ba-badida

The moment you hold my hand
