Shichouka (始蝶歌)

[nebulancer]

English translation:

Blossom in full glory now, to never waver

—The countenance of a king.

 

The purple which bloomed to the very edges, swaying to and fro in the darkness, now grows more gorgeous.

Words spilling out from the heart are strongly, strongly etched within me.

 

Your voice, a single dream.

Our encounter gleams—

 

—Here and now, I begin.

The engraved icy moon informs of the beginning.

As I make my pledge to the moon of harmony, the purple butterfly takes flight.

Here and now, I sing the beginning of all.

 

——Blossom in full glory the countenance of a king.

 

“The first month embraced your beloved self.”

 

Dancing as they scatter are the snow’s flowers

 

Swimming through the long spring ocean,

Shining again upon the instant of our reunion

 

Sing, dance, o beautiful color.

The swaying supremacy of winter—

 

—Here and now, I perform again.

Slashing through those emotions I’ve woven, it resounds through the endless reality.

As I extol all, the purple butterfly takes flight.

Together, may we engrave a single beginning.

 

——Blossom in full glory the countenance of a king.

 

Overcoming an eternal darkness, we have once again reunited

Such a miracle gleams, becoming a splendid scenery

I continue to walk with you, one who embraces the color purple

Here and now, I sing of a brand new beginning.

 

——Engraving in the countenance of a king.

 

—Here and now, I begin.

The engraved icy moon informs of the beginning.

As I make my pledge to the moon of harmony, the purple butterfly takes flight.

Here and now, I sing the beginning of all.

 

——Blossom in full glory the countenance of a king.
