adokena sa ha doujo no temari ni kometa aisatsu

Kanji:

あどけなさは童女の 手毬に込めた挨拶
銀の糸から辿る惨き日々

死に至る夢を持ち　諦めかけた魂
金を飲んでもいざ耀けぬかな

ひとつひとをあやめ
見誤い嵐の如く狂える旨

まだ遠い　なお遠い
永遠は永久(とこしえ)に届かない場所

阿修羅　修羅の住む夜風
断ち切る瞬間を
花手向ける地の蔭に千の墓標

しどけなさを欠いても　竹が撓(しな)るよ閨(ねや)
にて
白の装束着けて冥府へと

死に至る熱情で　燃やし尽くせ俗の美酒
黒き姿を待て霧満つる宵

ひとつひとをあやめ
ひとつひとをまもり
何方(どちら)にも正義はあると
嗚呼呟く
ひとつひとのために
ひとつひとのみちを
見誤い嵐の如く狂える旨

ただ燃ゆる　なぜ燃ゆる
報われぬ命

彼(は)羅(ら)尼(に)陀(だ)那(な) 彼羅尼陀那
永遠は永久(とこしえ)と気付かない場所

阿修羅　修羅の住む夜風
断ち切る瞬間を
知る者とは刃重ねて
我が胸　我が罪を其の手で斬り給え
花手向ける地の蔭に千の墓標


English:

Innocence is a little girl's greeting loaded into temari2

Cruel days of following from a silver thread

Holding fatal dreams, the souls were about to resign

I wonder if they cannot shine even if they ingest gold?

Murdering a single person

the cruel intention like a misread storm

Still far, still distant

Eternity is a place we won't reach for eternity

Asura residing in a night wind of carnage

Moments cut apart

A thousand gravestones in the grace of the earth with flowers offered

Even if lacking untidiness, the bamboo is supple, and

in the bedroom

wearing white dressing, they go to the realm of the dead

Burn completely with fatal ardour, in expensive alcohol of the layman

waiting for a black figure on an evening with fog rising

Murdering a single person

Protecting a single person

"There is justice for everyone"

Aah, we mutter

For a single person

a path of a single person

the cruel intention like a misread storm

Just burning, why burning?

An unrewarded life

Haranidana, haranidana

Eternity is a place that does not recognize eternity

Asura residing in a night wind of carnage

Moments cut apart

Those who know laying blades on one another

please slice our hearts, our sins with those hands

A thousand gravestones in the grace of the earth with flowers offered
