Japanese
そのパレードは何処からやって来たのだろうか…
嗚呼…そのパレードは何処までも続いてゆく…
「おぉ友よ！罪も無き囚人達よ、我らはこの世界という鎖から解き放たれた。
来る者は拒まないが、去る者は決して赦さない。黄昏の葬列…楽園パレードへようこそ！」
パレードは何処までも続いてゆく → 世界の果てを目指して
先頭で仮面の男が笛を吹く → 沈む夕陽に背を向けて
パレードは何処までも続いてゆく → 世界の果てを目指して
男の肩に座った少女が歌う → その笛の音に合わせて
心に深い傷を負った者にとって 抗えない魔性の音…
「やぁ友よ！幸薄き隣人達よ、我らはこの世界という鎖から解き放たれた。
来る者は拒まないが、去る者は決して赦さない。仮初めの終焉…楽園パレードへようこそ！」
パレードは何処までも続いてゆく → 世界の果てを目指して
燃えるような紅い髪の女が踊る → 沈む夕陽を背に受けて
パレードは何処までも続いてゆく → 世界の果てを目指して
《気味が悪い》(グロい)首吊り道化師の刺青が笑う → あの笛の音に合わせて
心に深い闇を飼った者にとって 逆らえない魔性の音…

笛の音に誘われ 一人また一人列に並んでゆく
やがてそのパレードは 夕陽を遮って地平線を埋め尽くす…
喩えば箱舟を信じた少女…
喩えば歪んだ真珠の乙女…
喩えば収穫を誤った娘…
喩えば妹を犠牲にされた姉…
喩えば星屑に踊らされた女…
誰も仮面の男ABYSSからは逃げられない…
「ごきげんよう、可哀相なお嬢さん。楽園パレードへようこそ！」
笛の音を操って　一人また一人列に加えてゆく
やがてそのパレードは 夕陽を裏切って地平線を灼き尽くす……
嗚呼…そのパレードは何処までも続いてゆく…
そのパレードは何処へ向かってゆくのだろうか…

I wonder where that parade came from?

Ah! The parade continues on forever!

“Ooh friend! We who are prisoners who did not commit a crime were let loose from the chains we call this world.
The person who came didn’t refuse us, but the last person who comes never accepts us. A funeral procession of the dusk… Welcome to the Paradise Parade!”

The parade goes on forever, aiming for the end of the world.
The man with the mask plays a flute at the front, turning his back to the sinking sun.

The parade goes on forever, aiming for the end of the world.
The girl who sat on the shoulders of a man sings to the sound of the flute.
As for he who bore a deep wound in his heart…As for the sound of the evil spirit who he cannot fight,

“Ahh, friend! Good fortune neighbours! We were let loose from chains we call this world.
The person who comes does not refuse us, but the last person who comes never accepts us. The temporary ending … Welcome to the Paradise Parade!”

The parade goes on forever, aiming for the end of the world.
A woman with burning hair dances, receiving the sinking sun in her back.

The parade goes on forever, aiming for the end of the world.
The tattoo of the creepy clown who committed suicide, laughs.
As for the person who keeps darkness deep in their hearts, they cannot go against the sound of evil.

It is provoked by the sound from the flute, and one person joins the queue again.
Before long the parade shuts out the sunset and fills up the horizon…

For example, the girl who believed in an ark.
For example, the young girl of the distorted pearl.
For example, the daughter who harvested the wrong crop.
For example, the older sister whose younger sister was sacrificed.
For example, the woman who was fooled by stars.
Nobody has run away from Abyss, the man in the mask.

“Goodbye, poor young lady. Welcome to the Paradise Parade!”

Listening to the sound of the flute, another person joins the line.
Systematically coming from the horizon, before long the parade betrays the evening sun.

Ah! … the parade goes on forever!
I wonder where that parade is going…
