君を入れる鞄ならこのくらいが丁度いいでしょう?
首くらいが見えるほうが、この世の見納めに相応しい

kimi o ireru iremono nara kono kurai ga choudo ii deshou?
kubi kurai ga mieru hou ga, kono yo no miosame ni fusawashii

This should be the perfect size for a bag to put you in, don’t you agree?
Having your head just visible will be fitting for your last sight of this world

君を燃やした灼熱でも、心は焼きつくせない
生者と死者の境界で君が思う事とは何…?

kimi o moyashita netsu demo, kokoro wa yaki tsukusenai
seisha to shisha no kyoukai de kimi ga omou koto to wa nani…?

Even with the heat that burned you, your heart can’t be completely burnt
At the border between the living and dead, what are you thinking…?

それともまだ閉じたその唇、こじ開けてあげようか?
嘆き悲しむ家族を見て、焼け付くような心の悲鳴を聞かせて

sore tomo mada tojita sono kuchibiru, koji akete ageyou ka?
nageki kanashimu ukara o mite, yake tsuku you na kokoro no himei o kikasete

Or maybe should I pry open those still closed lips of yours?
Let me hear the searing cries of your heart when you see your relatives grieving

聞こえている?聞こえていない?
あの子の首はねる鎌の音
真白な雪、血で染まるの
君も同じよ、罪で真赤

kikoeteiru? kikoeteinai?
ano ko no kubi haneru kama no oto
masshiro na yuki, chi de somaru no
kimi mo onaji yo, tsumi de makka

Can you hear it? Can you not hear it?
The sound of the scythe decapitating that child
The pure white snow is stained with blood
You’re the same, pure red with sin

それともまだ閉じていない瞼を落としてあげようか?
思い出は数多あれど、君は私が連れて逝く

sore tomo mada tojieteinai mabuta o otoshite ageyou ka?
omoide wa amata aredo, kimi wa watashi ga tsurete yuku

Or maybe should I close those still open eyelids of yours?
Though you have plenty of memories, I’ll be the one to lead you to death
