| Original / Romaji Lyrics | English Translation |
|---|---|
kako mo mirai mo nai shinkirou ibitsu na meiro kugurinuke utsuro na tamashii mayoikomu | A mirage without a past or a future Struggling through the winding maze, Hollow souls lose their way |
AGARUTA SHANBARA SHANGURIRA itsuka wa koko wo hanarete mo hanasaku tabi ni omoidasu | Agartha, Shamballa, Shangri-La Even if you leave this place someday, You'll remember it whenever the flowers bloom |
sono hitoshizuku ni ryuu ga sumu kurai yoake ni kaze ga fuku momo no kaori ga madowaseru | In that one drop, a dragon resides The wind blows in the dark daybreak The scent of peaches leads you astray |
sono hitoshizuku wo tora wa nomu kurai yoake ni kikoeteiru no wa tooku sasayaku shinsen no koe | A tiger drinks that one drop What you can hear in the dark daybreak Is the faraway, whispering voice of an immortal |
ame ga fureba subete kuzureyuku" | If rain falls, everything crumbles" |
kaze ga fukeba minna ushinau hareyuku" | If wind blows, everyone's faults clear" |
tatta no nibyou de awa to hajiketobu" | In only two seconds, they pop away with the bubbles" |
yureru ishiki no mukou gawa e | To the other side of your wavering consciousness |
hanasaki midareru YUUTOPIA kawaita risei no nare hate wo yume no fuchi e to sasoidasu | This utopia of profusely blooming flowers At the end of your dried senses, You're lured into the depth of a dream |
MAHARAJA HASHIENDA KISANADU subete wa uso to wakaru kedo hana chiru tabi ni omoidasu | Maharaja, Hacienda, Xanadu Even though you know everything is a lie, You'll remember it whenever the flowers fall |
sono hitoshizuku ni ryuu ga sumu kurai yoake ni kaze ga fuku momo no kaori ga madowaseru | In that one drop, a dragon resides The wind blows in the dark daybreak The scent of peaches leads you astray |
sono hitoshizuku wo tora wa nomu kurai yoake ni kikoeteiru no wa tooku sasayaku shinsen no koe | A tiger drinks that one drop What you can hear in the dark daybreak Is the faraway, whispering voice of an immortal |
aki ga kureba yagate kawariyuku" | If autumn comes, it eventually changes" |
haru ga kureba minna mina satteyuku" | If spring comes, every single person goes away" |
yami ni nomare sorezore chitteyuku" | Each is engulfed in darkness and scatters" |
toki no nagare no uragawa e | To the other side of the flow of time |
kako mo mirai mo nai yume no naka ibitsu na meiro kugurinuke utsuro na tamashii mayoikomu | Inside a dream without a past or a future Struggling through the winding maze, Hollow souls lose their way |
AGARUTA SHANBARA SHANGURIRA me ga same koko wo hanarete mo uta wo kiku tabi ni omoidasu | Agartha, Shamballa, Shangri-La Even if you wake up and leave this place, You'll remember it whenever you hear the song |
kyoufu mo kibou mo nai DESUTOPIA amai kaori wo tadayowase utsuro na tamashii hikiyoseru | A dystopia without fears or hopes Set the sweet scent adrift, And draw forth your hollow soul |
haraiso AZARON ARUGADIA itsuka wa yume ga owatte mo . . .? | Eden, Avalon, Arcadia Even if my dream ends someday...? |
This song is based on the poem "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The title "tougenkyou" has a lot of different synonymous translations (some of which are stated in the song), but I chose "Xanadu" because it's the name of the utopia mentioned in the poem.
