Black Swallowtail

Anime: Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers 六花の勇者

            (Rokka no Yūsha)

Artist: UROBOROS

Type: Second Opening

Romaji:

Taken by the sinking blue,
gotta understand hatred to understand
true meanings of love

Does not end until the end comes,
and people get replaced again
but this keeps repeating on and on

Another start
A win prearranged is no fun

You won't get far, you can't escape
if you get lost
Oh, black swallowtail

kara mitsuita ima ni shiga mitsuku
jibun o yowasa ni nurikaete made
me ni shita mono ga riaru ni suri kawaru kono sekai
koredeiino?

Space created by the silence
We capture sadness and regrets,
pondering immortality

Let's forget the idealistic,
Project the strength and weaknesses
hiding deep within the complications

Time goes by
While dreaming of the future

With no concern, it's slipping through
As it destroys us over and over

sari shi kage to umaredasu hikari itsumo ima mo
kono shunkan ni aru
te ni shita mono ga riaru ni iro utsuru kono sekai
koredeiino?

nani ka o sutete
nani ka o uragiri
nani ka o kowashi
nani ga shinjitsu ka sagashite yuku

karamitsuita ima ni shigamitsuku
jibun o yowasa ni nurikaete made
me ni shita mono ga riaru ni suri kawaru kono sekai
koredeiino?

Who is gonna be telling who?
tori sugiru memories and the presence
Tell me who is all of this for?
The more we question
kaze ni maichiru 

Kanji:

Taken by the sinking blue,

gotta understand hatred to understand

true meanings of love

Does not end until the end comes,

and people get replaced again

but this keeps repeating on and on

Another start

A win prearranged is no fun

You won't get far, you can't escape

if you get lost

Oh, black swallowtail

絡みついた現在(いま)にしがみつく

自分を弱さに塗り替えてまで

目にした物がリアルにすり替わるこの世界

コレデイイノ？

Space created by the silence

We capture sadness and regrets,

pondering immortality

Let's forget the idealistic,

Project the strength and weaknesses

hiding deep within the complications

Time goes by

While dreaming of the future

With no concern, it's slipping through

As it destroys us over and over

去りし影と生まれ出す光いつも今も

この瞬間にある

手にした物がリアルに色映るこの世界

コレデイイノ？

何かを捨てて

何かを裏切り

何かを壊し

何が真実か探してゆく

絡みついた現在(いま)にしがみつく

自分を弱さに塗り替えてまで

目にした物がリアルにすり替わるこの世界

コレデイイノ？

Who is gonna be telling who？

通り過ぎる　memories and the presence

Tell me who is all of this for？

The more we question

風に舞い散る


English:

Taken by the sinking blue,

Gotta understand hatred to understand,

True meanings of love.

Does not end until the end comes,

And people get replaced again,

But this keeps repeating on and on!

Another start...

A win prearranged is no fun!

You won't get far, you can't escape,

If you get lost,

Oh, black swallowtail!

Clinging to this tangling moment,

Until we're repainted in weakness,

The things we lay eyes upon will be switched out with reality,

But is the world really fine like this?

Space created by the silence,

We capture sadness and regrets,

Pondering immortality.

Let's forget the idealistic,

Project the strength and weaknesses,

Hiding deep within the complications.

Time goes by,

While dreaming of the future...

With no concern, it's slipping through,

As it destroys us over and over.

The shadow that parts and the light that's born from it,

Are always here in this moment, even now.

The things we obtain have their colors reflected in reality,

But is the world really fine like this?

Throwing something away...

Betraying something...

Breaking something...

We search for what's really true!

Clinging to this tangling moment,

Until we're repainted in weakness,

The things we lay eyes upon will be switched out with reality,

But is the world really fine like this?

Who is gonna be telling who?

Memories and presence passing on by...

Tell me who is all of this for?

The more we question,

The more we're scattered to the wind!
