コッペリアの柩
流れる涙はもう枯れ果て
血に飢えた孤独
死は天使の和毛の
匂いをさせて舞う
黒い太陽が
沈まぬ街で
誰もが黙って
奇術めき働く
金属の壁に
囲われた部屋
私は朝まで
死んだように眠る
あなたが 見えない
この眼は 見えない
我ら造りたまいし神
コッペリアの柩
人は踊り疲れた人形
祭壇の羔
機械仕掛けの夢は
どこに向かってゆく
世界の終わりを
予言が告げる
隣人の扉を
兵士たちが叩く
幾千の指が
翼のように
折られ畳まれて
祈りだけが昇る
あなたに 会えない
ここでは 会えない
我ら救いたまえる神
コッペリアの柩
流れる涙はもう枯れ果て
血に飢えた孤独
死は天使の和毛の
匂いをさせて舞う
それでも 触れたい
この手で 掴みたい
我ら護る唯一の愛
コッペリアの鼓動
生きることは痛みを知ること
脱ぎ捨てた靴を
もう一度踏みならし
迷わず歩き出す
コッペリアの柩
暗やみから目覚める光よ
祭壇の羔
ネジの途切れた夢は
どこに向かってゆく
Coppelia's Coffin
The flowing tears are completely withered
The loneliness that thirsts for blood
Death dances, bringing the scent
Of the soft hair of angels
In the town where
The black sun doesn't set
Everyone is silent,
Working as if magical [1]
In the room enclosed
By metal walls
I sleep as if dead
Until morning
I can't see you
I can't see with these eyes
The god that created us from pebbles
Coppelia's Coffin
People are dolls tired from dancing
Sheep on the altar
The mechanical dreams
Where are they headed?
Announcing predictions
Of the end of the world
At the doors of neighbors,
Soldiers are pounding
Thousands of fingers
Are folded
Like wings
And only their prayers ascend
I can't meet you
I can't meet here
The god that can grant us salvation
Coppellia's Coffin
The flowing tears are completely withered
The loneliness that thirsts for blood
Death dances, bringing the scent
Of the soft hair of angels
Even so, I want to touch
Want to capture with these hands
The unique love that protects us
Coppelia's Heartbeat
To live is to know pain
With the shoes I cast off
Again I beat a path
And set out without doubt
Coppelia's Coffin
O light that awakes from darkness
Sheep on the altar
The dream whose screw has stopped [2]
Where is it headed?
Notes: [1] "kijutsu" means magic, but the connotation is that of sleight of hand, and not something truly wondrous and inexplicable
[2] the song implies that the (mechanical) dream is like a music box that has wound down
