Lyrics
| ! | ! |
| Japanese | Romaji | English |
| 戦が終わり荒れ果てた町を | ikusa ga owari arehateta machi o | In a town that fell to ruin at the end of a battle |
| 一人の騎士が歩く | hitori no kishi ga aruku | A lone knight walks through |
| 彼は誰より戦果を挙げた | kare wa dare yori senka o ageta | He'd earned more military gains than anyone |
| 誰より人を殺した | dare yori hito o koroshita | He'd killed more people than anyone |
| 敵国の民はその姿恐れ | tekikoku no tami wa sono sugata osore | The people of the enemy nation fear his form |
| 必死に命乞いをする | hisshi ni inochigoi o suru | And they desperately beg for their lives |
| しかしその願いを彼が | shikashi sono negai o kare ga | But he never |
| 聞き入れることは決してない | kikiireru koto wa kesshite nai | Grants their wish |
| 女の亡骸が抱えた | onna no nakigara ga kakaeta | A woman's corpse tightly held |
| 無邪気に微笑む赤子 | mujaki ni hohoemu akago | An innocently smiling baby |
| 彼は冷たい眼のまま | kare wa tsumetai me no mama | With cold eyes |
| 剣を振り上げた | tsurugi o furiageta | He lifted his sword |
| 英雄の鎧は常に紅く | eiyuu no yoroi wa tsuneni akaku | A hero's armor is always crimson |
| それはきっと浴びた返り血の色 | sore wa kitto abita kaerichi no iro | That is surely the color of the spilled blood he basked in |
| 誰かのための行いだとしても | dareka no tame no okonai da to shite mo | Even if these are deeds for someone's sake |
| それを「正義」と呼べるのか | sore o "seigi" to yoberu no ka | Can you call that “justice”? |
| それから五年の月日が流れ | sorekara gonen no tsukihi ga nagare | Five years flowed on since then |
| 戦は今日も続く | ikusa wa kyou mo tsuzuku | And the war continues today |
| 騎士を仮住まいで待つのは | kishi o karizumai de matsu no wa | Waiting for the knight at a temporary home |
| 一人の可憐な少女 | hitori no karen na shoujo | Is a lone, sweet girl |
| あの時彼女の服に縫われた | ano toki kanojo no fuku ni nuwareta | Back then he'd noticed that stitched on her clothes |
| 皇家の紋に気づいた | kouke no mon ni kizuita | Was the Imperial family crest |
| 手元に置いておけばいつか | temoto ni oite okeba itsuka | If he had her on hand, one day |
| 人質くらいにはなるだろう | hitojichi kurai ni wa naru darou | She might be useful as a hostage |
| 「お帰り父さん」と微笑む | "okaeri tousan" to hohoemu | Foolish, innocent girl |
| 無邪気で愚かな娘 | mujaki de oroka na musume | Who smiles and says “Welcome home, Dad” |
| お前の親を殺したのは | omae no oya o koroshita no wa | You do this even though I myself am the one |
| この俺だというのに | kono ore da to iu no ni | Who killed your parents |
| 英雄の鎧は常に紅く | eiyuu no yoroi wa tsuneni akaku | A hero's armor is always crimson |
| それはきっと彼の野心と同じ色 | sore wa kitto kare no yashin to onaji iro | That is surely the same color as his treachery |
| 誰かのための行いだとしても | dareka no tame no okonai da to shite mo | Even if these are deeds for someone's sake |
| それを「正義」と呼べるのか | sore o "seigi" to yoberu no ka | Can you call that “justice”? |
| 戦場には | senjou ni wa | On the battlefield |
| 様々なものがはびこっている | samazama na mono ga habikotte iru | Various things are running rampant |
| 勝利 敗北 憎しみ 時の運 | shouri haiboku nikushimi toki no un | Victory, defeat, hatred, chance luck |
| そして裏切り | soshite uragiri | And betrayal |
| 気が付けば騎士は | ki ga tsukeba kishi wa | Before he knew it, the knight |
| 大勢の敵に囲まれていた | oozei no teki ni kakomarete ita | Was surrounded by a great many enemies |
| 彼らがただの兵士でないことは | karera ga tada no heishi denai koto wa | It was obvious that |
| 明らかだった | akiraka datta | They weren't ordinary soldiers |
| 「おとなしく娘を差し出せ」と | "otonashiku musume o sashidase" to | “Quietly submit to us that girl,” |
| 迫る黒装束の老婆 | semaru kuroshouzoku no rouba | Urged an old woman in black clothes |
| 従えばおそらく | shitagaeba osoraku | If he complied, |
| 娘の命はないだろう | musume no inochi wa nai darou | They would probably murder her |
| しかしそれは騎士にとって | shikashi sore wa kishi ni totte | But for the knight |
| 望むところだったはず | nozomu tokoro datta hazu | That must have been a desired outcome |
| そのためにこの子を今まで | sono tame ni kono ko o ima made | Because it was for that reason |
| 飼っていたのだから | katte ita no da kara | He'd been keeping her until now |
| 剣を持ち | ken o mochi | There was someone |
| 騎士を守るように | kishi o mamoru you ni | Who held a sword |
| 前に立った者がいた | mae ni tatta mono ga ita | And stood in front of the knight to protect him |
| 震えてる小さな背中 | furueteru chiisana senaka | A small, trembling back |
| それは幼いあの子だった | sore wa osanai ano ko datta | It was the young child. |
| 憐れな娘よ | aware na musume yo | Pitiful girl |
| お前が父と慕う者は | omae ga chichi to shitau mono wa" | You do this even though the one you love as a father |
| 今まさにお前を | ima masani omae o | Was just about |
| 売ろうとしていたと | urou to shite ita to | To try |
| いうのに | iu no ni | To sell you off |
| 騎士は娘の頭を | kishi wa musume no atama o | After the knight |
| 優しく撫でた後 | yasashiku nadeta ato | Gently patted the girl's head |
| 殺し屋に向かって剣を抜いた…… | koroshiya ni mukatte ken o nuita...... | He faced the assassins and drew his sword… |
| 英雄の鎧は常に紅く | eiyuu no yoroi wa tsuneni akaku | A hero's armor is always crimson |
| それはきっと浴びた夕焼けの色 | sore wa kitto abita yuuyake no iro | That is surely the color of the twilight he basked in |
| 血塗られた時代の中 手を繋いで | chinurareta jidai no naka te o tsunaide | Walking hand-in-hand in that blood-stained era, |
| 歩いていく騎士と娘 | aruite iku kishi to musume | Is a knight and a girl |
| 戦場には正義も悪もない | senjou ni wa seigi mo aku mo nai | On the battlefield there is neither justice nor evil |
| 贖罪の日はいつかやって来るだろう | shokuzai no hi wa itsuka yatte kuru darou | The day of his atonement will come someday |
| やがて来るその時まで彼は | yagate kuru sono toki made kare wa | Until that time finally arrives |
| 「父」でいようと決意した | "chichi" de iyou to ketsui shita | He's decided to be a “father” |
