Original / Romaji LyricsEnglish Translation
shiroi kesshou no houseki wa   kaze o matotte odoru
juhyou no enbukyoku   tooku kuchita rakuen
The white crystal gem dances, clad in the wind
The waltz of frozen trees, the distant rotted Paradise
kuroi doukou [me] no shounen wa   kaze o hatte tooru
juhyou no namikimichi   fukai mori no haioku
The black-eyed boy passes by, sweeping up the wind
The path lined by frozen trees, an abandoned house deep within the forest
shounen ga mitsuketa   shoujo no shouzouga
"kare" wa byouteki ni shiroi   "kanojo" ni koi o shite shimatta
The boy found the girl's portrait
"He" fell in love with "her," the abnormally pale girl
osanai hisseki no shomei [SAIN]   myou ni ibitsu na daimei [TAITORU] wa
"saiai no musume ERISU no yattsu no tanjoubi ni..."
The signature in childish handwriting, the strangely warped title was
"To my beloved daughter Elyse on her eighth birthday..."
taihai [DEKADANSU] e to itai gensou   haitoku na tsumugitsudzukeru koimonogatari [ROMANSU]
itami o daku tame ni umarete kuru   kanashimi
daiyon no chiheisen -- sono rakuen no na wa "ELYSION"
An illusion that leads to decadence, a sinful romance that continues to be woven
The sadness of being born to embrace pain
The fourth horizon -- that Paradise's name is "Elysion"
-- Soshite... ikudomeka no rakuen no tobira ga hirakareru...
-- And then... how many times was the door to Paradise opened?
yagate shounen wa kare no  [ERU] o motomeru darou...
yagate shounen wa kare no  [ERU] o mitsukeru darou...
yagate shounen wa kare no  [ERU] o motomeru darou...
yagate shounen wa kare no  [ERU] o mitsukeru darou...
Soon the boy will search for his ideal [El]
Soon the boy will find his keyhole [El]
Soon the boy will search for his Paradise [El]
Soon the boy will find the girl [El]
musume mo mata haha ni nari   musume o umu no naraba
rakuen o ushinatta genzai [tsumi] o   eien ni kurikaesu...
If a daughter becomes a mother and gives birth to a daughter of her own
She repeats forever the original sin which lost Paradise
hajimari no tobira to   owari no tobira no hazama de
hikareau "E" [ERU] to "A" [ABISU] -- aizou no shouzou
In the space between the door of beginnings and the door of endings
"E" [El] and "A" [Abyss] attract each other -- the portrait of love and hate
kindan ni te o some   ikudomo koi ni ochite yuku
motomeau "E" [EVA] to "A" [ADAMU] -- aizou no shouzou
Hands stained with sin, they fall in love many times
"E" [Eve] and "A" [Adam] desire each other -- the portrait of love and hate
yagate shounen wa ♂ [otoko] no tame ni mizukara o koroshi   shoujo wa ♂ [onna] no tame ni mizukara o korosu
toki no kouya o houkou tsumibito-tachi wa   soko ni donna rakuen o kizuku no darou ka?
Soon the boy will kill himself for the sake of a man, and the girl will kill herself for the sake of a woman
These sinners lost in the wilderness of time, what kind of Paradise are they building there?
-- ikudotonaku "E" [ERYUSHION] ga miserareru gen'ei   sore wa ushinatta hazu no "E" [EDEN] no omokage
aa... sono utsukushiki fumou no sekai wa   ikutsu no gensou o hashirasete yuku no darou
-- The vision that Elysion shows many times is the form of an Eden which should have been lost
Ah... how many illusions will that beautiful, barren land send forth?
