钟逆时针而绕 恶物狰狞的倾巢
The clock circles counterclockwise, lurking evils unleash their lair,
我谦卑安静的于城堡下的晚祷
I humbly and quietly pray beneath the castle at dusk.
压抑远古流窜的蛮荒暗号
Suppressing the ancient wild signals that run rampant,
而管风琴键高傲的说那只是在徒劳
While the organ keys proudly proclaim it's all in vain.
傲傲傲傲傲 我的乐器在环绕
Proud, proud, proud, proud, proud, my music surrounds me,
时代无法淘汰我霸气的皇朝
An era cannot overthrow my powerful dynasty.
你无法预言 因为我越险翅越艳
You cannot foresee, for the more perilous my wings, the more radiant they become.
没有句点 跨时代蔓延 翼朝天
No periods, transcending time, wings reaching for the sky.
月下浮雕 魔鬼的浅笑
Under the moon, a relief, the devil's coy smile,
狼迎风嚎 蝠翔似黑潮
Wolves howl with the wind, bats soar like a dark tide.
用孤独去调尊严的色调
With solitude, I tune the hue of dignity,
我跨越过世代 如兽般的姿态
I cross generations with a beast-like grace,
琴声唤醒沉睡的血脉
The sound of the lute awakens slumbering bloodlines,
不需要被崇拜 如兽般的悲哀
No need for adoration, just the beast's own sorrow,
只为永恒的乐曲存在 醒过来
Only for the existence of eternal melodies, awaken,
钟逆时针而绕 恶物狰狞的倾巢
The clock turns counterclockwise, the grotesque looms,
我谦卑安静的于城堡下的晚祷
I humbly and quietly offer evening prayers beneath the castle,
压抑远古流窜的蛮荒暗号
Suppressing ancient, wandering, savage codes,
而管风琴键高傲的说那只是在徒劳
While the organ proudly claims it's all in vain,
傲傲傲傲傲 我的乐器在环绕
Proud, proud, proud, proud, my instrument surrounds me.
时代无法淘汰我霸气的皇朝
An era can't erase my majestic reign,
你无法预言 因为我越险翅越艳
You can't predict it, for my wings grow bolder and more vibrant,
没有句点 跨时代蔓延翼朝天
No end in sight, transcending time with wings reaching for the sky,
月下浮雕 魔鬼的浅笑
Under the moonlight, a sculpture, the devil's faint smile,
狼迎风嚎 蝠翔似黑潮
Wolves howl against the wind; bats soar like a dark tide,
用孤独去调尊严的色调
Using solitude to tune the hues of dignity,
我跨越过世代 如兽般的姿态
I traverse generations, a beast in my stance,
琴声唤醒沉睡的血脉
The sound of the zither stirs the slumbering bloodline,
不需要被崇拜 如兽般的悲哀
No need for worship, the sorrow of a beast,
只为永恒的乐曲存在 醒过来
Just to exist for the eternal melody, awaken now.
我不需要被崇拜
I don't need to be worshipped
我不需要被崇拜
I don't need to be worshipped
我跨越过世代 如兽般的姿态
I transcend generations, in a beastly form
琴声唤醒沉睡的血脉
The sound of the piano awakens the slumbering bloodline
不需要被崇拜 如兽般的悲哀
No need to be worshipped, like the sorrow of a beast
只为永恒的乐曲存在 醒过来
Just to exist for the eternal melody, awaken
