Lyrics

----

Am I real or in an illusion?
真実か幻想か？
Shinjitsu Ka Gensou Ka
Is it the butterfly illusion?
蝶の魅せる幻想なのか
Chou No Miseru Gensou Nanoka

Verse 1:

A fragrance intoxicates me and I lose consciousness
沸き立つ香りに遠のく意識
Wakitastu Kaori ni Toonoku Ishiki
What mischievous yookai is prevent me from seeing reality?
もののけよ、真実を示せ　
Mononoke Yo Shinjitu wo Shimese
Is it the butterfly illusion?
これは蝶の描く幻想？
Kore wa Chou No Egaku Gensou
Is it love?
これは愛なのだろうか？
Koreha Ai Nano Darouka

chorus:

I dream of this elegant butterfly
夜ごと夢に見る美しき蝶よ
Yogoto Yume Ni Miru Utsukushiki Chou Yo
but i feel so empty when i wake up
目覚めた私はいまだ空虚なまま
Mezameta Watashiha Imada Kuukyo na Mama
Yesterday you looked so beautiful but you were just a dream
昨夜の美しきあなたはもう居ない
Sakuya No Utsukushiki Anata Ha Mou Inai
You left like a flapping butterfly wing in the sky carried by the wind
まるで風に舞い去り行く蝶のように

Marude Kaze Ni Mai Sariyuku Chou No Youni

Verse 2:

Oomurasaki,
dark god in the night of the world
夜に潜む暗闇の神よ
Yoru Ni Hisomu Ankoku No Kami Yo
Give me the keys to the path of awakening
どうか私を目覚めさせて
Douka Watashi Wo Mezamesasete

Bridge

甘く揺蕩う旋律（しらべ）に貴方を愁う
Amaku tayutau shirabeni anata wo ureu
何度呼んでも届かない　私を置き去って
Nando yondemo todokanai watashiwo okizatte　
彼方へ　遠く　遠く
Kanatae tooku tooku

I long for you in a sweet, floating melody
No matter how many times I call to you, you can reach me, leave me
Far, far away

In your scent, I can smell the parasite
魅惑の香りは
Miwaku no Kaori wa
In this blend of flowers, I can smell the poison
花と混じり合い毒となって
Hana To Majiriai Doku To Natte

私を蝕んでいくの
Watashi Wo Mushibande Yuku No
remains my chrysalis which will never make its metamorphosis
蛹のままで未だ　羽ばたけずにいる
Sanagi No Mama de mada Habatakezuni Iru
lalala

chorus 2:

I dream of this elegant butterfly
今日も夢に見る美しき蝶よ
Kono Yume Ni Miru Utsukushiki Chou Yo
but i feel so empty when i wake up
目覚めた私は　Ah
Mezameta watashi wa Ah
You looked so beautiful but it was just an illusion
昨夜の美しきあなたは幻想？
Sakuya No Utsukushiki Anata Ha Gensou Nano
You left like a flapping butterfly wing in the sky carried by the wind
風に溶けゆく蝶よ
Kaze ni tokeyuku chou yo

ひらりひらりと舞い遊ぶ蝶よ　いつまでも追いつけぬまま
Hirari Hirari to Mai asobu chou yo, Itsumademo oitsukenu mama
Butterflies flutter and flutter, I cancatch up with them forever

今宵も私は夢中で手を伸ばす　ああ　美しき蝶よ
Koyoi mo watashi wa muchuu de te wo nobasu Ah utsukushiki chou yo
Tonight, too, I reach out my hand, madly... Oh, beautiful butterfly.
