English lyrics!!!!

Father once said to me many moons ago a demon hand will defend Mother said one day there is more that you must know a mortal hand will sustain Two hands together incomplete alone balance and union and the gate will open Go my children,go go to crimson flames To save our children the lights of memory remains

Japanese lyrics Kanji= 父は言われた 妖の手は 守りの手

母は言われた 人の手あるは はぐくみのため

両の手合わせ 扉を開き 紅蓮の中に なれをかえす

ながこらを 光となりて 守りたまえ 守りたまえ Rōmaji= Chichi wa iwareta Ayakashi no te wa Mamori no te

Haha wa iwareta Hito no te aru wa Hagukumi no tame

Ryou no te awase Tobira wo hiraki Guren no naka ni Nare wo kaesu

Na ga kora wo Hikari to narite Mamori tamae Mamori tamae

Father once said to me Many moons ago A demon hand will defend

Mother said one day There is more that you must know A mortal hand will sustain

Two hands together Incomplete alone Balance and union And the gate will open

Go my children go Go to crimson flames To save our children The lights of memory remain
