双つ星は瞬く　夢の途中でカットアウトさ

The twin stars twinkle, cutting out in the middle of a dream

悲しい夢 見てたような 何故だろうか、思い出せなくて

I was having a sad dream, I think Why is that? I can't remember

深く息を吸い込んだなら

Taking a deep breath in

さぁ、いかなきゃ敵が待ってる

Come on, I have to go, the enemy is waiting

ねぇ、君はどこにいるの？

Hey, where are you?

傷ついてもそれでもいい

Even if I get hurt, it's okay

光の矢を放て　この目は今敵を捕えた

Shoot the arrow of light; these eyes have just caught the enemy

屍を超えるのさ　ヴァルキリー

Surpass the corpses, Valkyrie

もう二度と会えなくなるのなら

If we can never meet again

この身で罰も受けよう　さぁ、剣を取れ

Then I’ll take the punishment myself. Come on, grab your sword

I’m still alive so wake up　戦場へ

I’m still alive, so wake up— to the battlefield
