[English]
Ah, behold the fleeting end of this maiden's life
The lanternflies flickering on the water's surface
Piercing through my body with a brilliant flare
Wiping away the flowing blood
Consum ing an uncertain life
With a hair ornament in my right hand, let's head to the lively city
My selfishness and desires are intoxicated by moonlight and cherry blossoms
I can't be satisfied alone
Awaken and touch this passionate heart that’s parched
Come on, take my hand, let’s go somewhere
I’ll risk everything for you
I can’t reveal my true identity, it’s hidden away
Passing through the alley where the neon light sways
Don’t scatter these rushing feelings, maiden
The common folk swarm around the corpse
A gang with no place to run
Don’t speak trivial stories
From there, the world sinks into decay and wakefulness
Everyone’s obsessed with happy illusions
Anywhere, at any time, just follow your words
It’s not a lie, just take a look, come on...
Come on, change your approach, change your mood
Telling falsehoods from the very start
Let’s take everything — happiness, sadness, everything I have
The maiden who wishes to kill everyone in the world
And the maiden who wishes to save you — it’s me
...
