Lyrics

Romanized transcription pending
At any given period of time, stardust will either lead or mislead mankind.

A girl who is anxious about her life, a woman who is a lunatic for love, equally on them, the light shines down.

The shining stars stir in the darkness, showing the tomorrow of flames[lights] that come around
The chariot of the Star Goddess[goddess], dashing across the night sky, is an opposing wind that heads towards the ground

Ah...the opened ≪The Twelve Constellations of the Zodiac≫[ὁ τῶν ζῳδίων]
Whom does the prince shoot at with the arrow of stardust?

At the mercy of the heavens...the one who grieves is 【Leo】[Λέων]

The shooting stars find rest in the darkness, showing the tomorrow of flames[lights] that go around
The bridge of the Poetry Goddesses[goddess], arching across the sky, is an ending rainbow stretching to purple

Ah...the hidden ≪The Twelve Constellations of the Zodiac≫[ὁ τῶν ζῳδίων]
What does the sybil see in the light of the stardust?

At the mercy of the heavens... 【Gemini】[Δίδυμοι] sways
At the mercy of destiny[Moira] ... 【Virgo】[Παρθένος] falls

"Ah...Elef..."

As if wanting to test us...the heavens keep showering us with troubles...
And humans can only accept the will of the gods without question...
(Ah ... They cannot do anything else...)
They cannot...
(Even if it’s a sad...Ah...)
Ah...Even if it’s a sad fate...

The visitors at dusk
("Search!")
The unwelcomed guests
The uniformed intruders, a riotous Aster

"Big trouble! Big trouble!"
"Rena, calm down!"
"But they're scary!"
"You there...what business do you have here in the middle of the night?"
"I’m scared as well! Let’s leave this to Lady Phyllis and go!"
"Wait up, Katia!"
"Is this outrageous act done with the knowledge that this is Astra’s Temple? I will not permit this insolence!"

Ah...the shadows of twilight dance to the oracle
A voice closing in mercilessly questions her choice

I'm sorry...my brother[Ελευ]
If it is at the expense of someone else, then I will not struggle...
But obey destiny's[Moira’s] will...

The stars...merely twinkle

"Misia ...!"
