Twilight Pentagram

Do not reprint, reuse, retranslate, or link this translation on wikias and external sites without my permission. 

Lyricist: Yohei Matsui Composer:  Kyohei Yamamoto (Arte Refact) Arranger: Taishi Kawai (Arte Refact)

Translation under the cut.

I forgot I had the game size of this sitting in my drafts, so I decided to translate the full thing since they really just added one verse.

Natsume: I knew that you'd come here, Wataru: To where nothing is impossible Wataru/Natsume : Is this a dream or reality? Natsume: "Isn’t either just FINE?"

Shu: There's no such thing as unbreakable, Kanata: when you know it's all as transient as a bubble Shu/Kanata: Those are the Rules of the Game, after all Rei: So let us rejoice in this moment

Wataru/Kanata: Perhaps this is just a fleeting flirtation? Rei/Shu: This Moebius strip without a reverse Wataru/Kanata: is chaotically tangled up Natsume/Rei: and tied together by a twist of fate, Shu/Wataru: A Pentagram Rei: twinkles bewitchingly

These twilight reminiscences Kanata: float up to the sky I want to sing freely Wataru: just as I please To our merrymaking, Shu: We invite you to join in the Eccentrics’ Showtime

Kanata: In this moment between the ebb and flow of the hour's tides, Rei: Until dawn breaks, Kanata/Rei: let's make the most of this transient moment Rei: "You should come along, too."

Natsume: Let us cast a spell on the ash-covered Cinderella, (2) Shu: and dress her in a beautiful gown, Natsume/Shu: Don't worry about doing it as we rehearsed, Wataru: just dance comically!

Natsume/Kanata: If eternity truly existed, Shu/Wataru: it surely wouldn't last forever Natsume/Kanata: Rather, it's a moment to be cherished Shu/Rei: That starstruck expression Kanata/Wataru: In Your Smile Natsume: You've shown now has taught me that.

What’s Amazing Night For the Artist in Bloom Endless Twilight Magic!

Shu: These nostalgic Memorials Kanata: Overlap dazzlingly without rhyme or reason Wataru: What great joy we’ve found here, Rei: Our meeting was not a fleeting dream, Natsume: but something stronger

Wataru: If you take that twilight dream Rei: and resurrect it, Natsume: I’ll show you Kanata: its continuation And take those 5 stars, with something different from fate, Shu: And tie them together

Let's draw it out That Pentagram With nothing but miracles trapped within Shu/Natsume: Let's leave the past in the past Wataru/Kanata: and let the future be the future Rei: Let's make this moment Rei/Natsume: last for eternity A Showtime to bid farewell to you (1)

Whoo! Yeah, yeah

Twilight Pentagram

Translation notes:

泡沫 is like, “ephemeral” or a “bubble”, so I combined it because I liked the imagery for Kanata.

This entire song is full of imagery related to the oddballs and this stanza is full of it, but the note applies to the whole song, so I'll just translate Yohei Matsui's tweet about it: The title of Altered's song "Twilight Pentagram" is taken from Natsume's necklace, which is a pentagram. The lines about the ash-covered princess, Cinderella, in the 2nd verse are a reference to the "ashes returned to the sky" -> and the phoenix, a symbol of eternity and a god (Kanata), that is revived (Rei). The dress (Shu) is a symbol of the magic (Natsume) given/casted on Cinderella in her fairy tale (Wataru). I imagined a story that was supposed to end at midnight that then became eternal.

WE’RE TWILIGHT PENTAGRAM

(Shu SPP)

[hibikiwatawho]

Twilight Pentagram (eng tl)

Key: Natsume, Kanata, Wataru, Shu, Rei, All

So, you’ve come here after all

Well, nothing is impossible, is it

Whether this is reality -the truth- or not

“That’s trivial, isn’t it?"

Yet, nothing is unbreakable

Even if you can appreciate -understand- the ephemerality of it

That’s just the restrictions -Rule- of human life -the Game-

So let’s rejoice in this moment

Though it’s merely a brief moment of play

A seamless joint -Mobius- without front nor back,

intertwines distortedly

Brought together by nothing more than chance,

is a five-pointed star -Pentagram-

It’s glowing eccentrically

Floating in the sky is our reminiscence at twilight

We want to sing freely, just as we’d like!

We’re beckoning you towards a delightful time

The Eccentrics’ Party Night -Show Time-

It’s just an interval within the ebb and flow of time

So until the sun rises

Let’s enjoy these transient things

“You should come along too”

Cast a spell on the Ash-Covered Princess -Cinderella-

Envelop her in a beautiful dress

There’s no need to mind your steps

Whimsically, let’s dance!

If eternity truly exists

Not as an endless continuation of time,

but stopping forever in this moment

The genuine beam of that smiling face,

In your smile

Has shown me that just now

What A Amazing Night！

Floating Artistic Moon！

Endless Twilight Magic！

These nostalgic memories -Memorial-

Why is it so dazzling when they overlap

What do you call this delight

That our encounter isn’t a fleeting dream

Aah Aah Aah

Such strong feelings

That dream at twilight, if it’s resurrected

We’ll show you, it’s continuation

By weaving together these five stars, belonging to different fates

We’ll create a five-pointed star -Pentagram-

that confines only miracles within

The past is in the past, the future will be the future

Let’s make this moment last for eternity

This gratitude -showtime- we gift to you

Fu, Yeah！

We're 'Twilight Pentagram'

Fu,　Fu,　Fu

[lisxdumbr]

Time passes and it's still unbelievable that a song as good as Twilight Pentagram exists, to me
