Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji
踊りが全ての少女を抱き抱え　朝を待つ 親愛なる友　手を振る君さえもう居ないから ありふれた日々さえ今ではもう懐かしい 空にひらひら舞ってる灰の花びら 積み上げた犠牲に別れの火を灯し 空にひらひら舞ってる灰の花びら ドレスを着てさあ踊ろう 絶え間なく与えた愛　悲鳴を上げ泣いているから　だから…もう ドレスを脱ぎさあ眠ろう 絶え間なく流した愛　幸せにと願う寝顔に少女はもういない 腐敗とドレスと片足の少女 抱き抱え	Odori ga subete no shōjo o dakikakae　Asa o matsu Shinai naru tomo　Te o furu kimi sae mō inai kara Arifureta hibi sae ima de wa mō natsukashii Sora ni hirahira matteru hai no hanabira Tsumiageta gisei ni wakare no hi o tomoshi Sora ni hirahira matteru hai no hanabira Doresu o kite saa odorō Taemanaku ataeta ai　Himei o agenaite iru kara　Dakara…mō Doresu o nugi saa nemurō Taemanaku nagashita ai　Shiawase ni to negau negao ni shōjo wa mō inai Fuhai to doresu to kataashi no shōjo Dakikakae
Translations
Translation on Withering to death.	Translation on 「我葬の詩」下巻
The dance holds together this little girl As she waits for the morning The best friend　She has no one to wave to anymore The good old days are so dear The ashes are like flower petals that rise up to the sky Say good bye as we torch the　fire to the victims stacked up The ashes are like flower petals that rise up to the sky Lets put on a dress and dance I gave her my endless love　But she cries aloud… so I Now take off the dress and go to sleep The endless love The little girl with happiness on her sleeping face is gone The decomposed dress and the leg of the little girl I carry	I hold in my arms the girl that loved to dance and waited for the morning To my best friend　I don't have anyone to wave to anymore since you're gone The good old days are so dear The ashes of flower petals scatter to the sky Saying good bye as we torch the fire to the stacked up victims The ashes of flower petals scatter to the sky Let's put on a dress and dance The unconditional love I gave her　She screams out crying　So…not anymore Take off the dress and let's go to sleep The unconditional love I showered her　The little girl with joy on her sleeping face is gone The decomposed dress and the leg of the little girl I hold in my arms
These lyrics were translated by Emi Yamada on Withering to death. and by Jewels on 「我葬の詩」下巻.

Trivia

Lyrics

• The word "decomposed" is erroneously written as "decompsed" in the translation on VULGAR.
• The second line in the first verse, as well as the second and fourth lines in the fourth verse of the translation printed in 「我葬の詩」下巻 are partially unreadable, as the Japanese lyrics were printed above them. As such, those parts might be wrong in the above translation.
  • Furthermore, the word "screams" is written as "sreams".
