Red retaliation

Commissioned translation. Normally I would translate 紅い as crimson but when the title is “Red retaliation” I have to stick to the precedent that’s been set.

☆ Title: Red retaliation
★ Album: Colo-RS
☆ Album Artist: LC:AZE
★ Vocals: STELA
☆ Composition and lyrics: Aruna

燃えさかる街には
矛盾だらけのLie
粉々に砕け散ってゆく愛
秩序の無い刃
燃え続けて
爪跡を残していく

moe sakaru machi ni wa
mujun darake no Lie
konagona ni kudake chitte yuku ai
chitsujo no nai yaiba
moe tsudzukete
tsume ato o nokoshite ku

Lies riddled with contradictions
fill the brightly burning town
Love is being smashed to pieces
Blades with no order
continue to burn
leaving behind scars

襲い掛かる紅い闇を
燃えさかる剣に変えて
今を守り抜く

osoi kakaru akai yami o
moe sakaru tsurugi ni kaete
ima o mamori nuku

I’ll turn the assailing red darkness
into a blazing sword
and protect the present until the end

いつかは・・・

itsu ka wa…

One of these days…

欲望の先
見える衝動
過去の過ち気付いてた
視線の先で

yokubou no saki
mieru shoudou
kako no ayamachi kidzuiteta
shisen no saki de

At the end of my gaze
I had noticed the mistakes of the past
The impulses in view
that lie beyond desire

紅い傷痕を許さない
運命を変えた業火を
復讐の傷痕癒えないの
今その答えを・・・

akai kizuato o yurusanai
unmei o kaeta gouka o
fukushuu no kizuato ienai no
ima sono kotae o…

I won’t tolerate the red scars
The hellfire that changed destiny
The scars of revenge won’t heal
Now give me your response…

「Brave・・・」

「Brave…」

“Brave…”

振り返る事はもうできない
少女の胸に秘める想い
視線の先は

furi kaeru koto wa mou dekinai
shoujo no mune ni himeru omoi
shisen no saki wa

I can’t look back anymore
The feelings hidden in the girl’s heart
lie at the end of my gaze

紅い翼を広げてゆく
約束を守るその日に
淡くおぼろげに浮かんで消え
今
その答えを
解き放ち瞳閉じて
終わりを告げるの・・・

akai tsubasa o hirogete yuku
yakusoku o mamoru sono hi ni
awaku oboroge ni ukande kie
ima
sono kotae o
toki hanachi hitomi tojite
owari o tsugeru no…

Spreading my red wings
on the day I’ll keep my promise
Faintly, and dimly they appear and fade away
Now
give me your answer
Letting loose and closing my eyes
I signal the end…
