sore wa amari ni mo subarashiku hei wa machi no koibito ni utatte oshieta yagate sono uta wa hito kara hito e to tsutawari dare ga tsudzutta kamo wakaranu sono na mo naki uta wa tairiku-juu ni hiromatta... | It was too splendid The soldiers taught it to their lovers in the town And soon the song was passed from person to person No one knew who had composed it But that nameless song Spread across the continent... |
zettaiteki na kenryoku no mae ni daremo ga hizamadzuku kitaru joou no tanjoubi sono bibou o tataeru uta o sasageyo to hitori no shijin ni meijita... | Anyone would kneel before her absolute power When her birthday approached She ordered a poet to compose a song in praise of her beauty... |
"kono yo de ichiban utsukushii no wa dare ja?" | "Who is the most beautiful in this world?" |
"watashi no sekai de wa, heika wa nibanme ni o-utsukushii..." | "In my world, Your Majesty is the second most beautiful person..." |
sore wa, tsuioku to iu na no gen'ei kuchiru koto naku eien ni sakitsudzukerareru teien tatoe, kedakaku utsukushiki bara de sae hana de aru ijou, karete shimatta hana ni wa oyobanai..." | Is the illusion called reminiscence Even a proud, beautiful rose In a garden that will go on blooming forever without wilting Can never live up to the flower that has wilted..." |
"sonata, yo ni karete shimae to mousu no ka!?" saishou no aizu hitotsu de hei-tachi wa shijin o torikonda... | "Are you saying that I've already wilted!?" At a single gesture from the Prime Minister, the soldiers captured the poet... |
kare no na wa BARADDO ima wa tsumetai chikarou no sumi saigo no uta o tsudzutte iru... | His name is Ballad Now, in a corner of a cold dungeon, He is composing his last song... |
mune ni bara no monshou o kakaeta rouban no hei wa kiite shimatta kare no tsudzutta saigo no uta o... | The soldiers bearing the crest of the rose on their chests, Who were guarding the dungeon, Heard his last song... |
shokei wa ogosoka ni toriokonawareru saigo no shunkan omoidasu no wa... kokyou no sora kaze no nioi ima wa naki kanojo to sugoshita hibi... tsumetai akikaze ga fuyu o michibiku you ni tabi no musume ga hitotsu omoibito o tazunete sasurau dokoka natsukashii sono uta o kuchizusaminagara... ~Page 168 "Shijin Ballad no Higeki" | The execution was solemnly carried out In his last moment, he remembered... The sky of his hometown, the scent of the wind And the days he had spent with his late love... as if the cold autumn wind were beckoning winter A single lady traveller wandered in search of the person from her memories While humming that song that sounded strangely familiar... ~Page 168 "The Tragedy of Ballad the Poet" |
