Zetsubou mo kibou mo onaji kao suru;
Mita sare nai kokoro aru nara,
Tobi tateru shuumatsu no puroro todo ne.

Yaiba no you na kaze, fuku sekai,
Mamoru beki mono wa nan nano ka?
Hitotsu hitotsu itami o shiru tabi,
Hontou no jibun e to chikazuku."

((English Version))

"On the other side of the collapsing wall,
Despair and hope look the same;
If there's a heart that's yet to be seen,
Let’s head to the end of the prologue.

In the world, where the wind blows like a blade,
What is it I should protect?
In a journey where I know one painful thing after another,
I get closer to the true me."
