==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
 	 	
(LE-　LE-LE-　LE-LET'S DANCE!) 	 	
 	 	
もう、あんなことや、そんなことも、忘れてみよう。 	mou, anna koto ya, sonna koto mo, wasurete miyou. 	Now, all that kind of stuff and those sorts of things, I shall try to forget them all.
傷んだ体、病んだあなた、つくりなおそう。 	itanda karada, yanda anata, tsukurinaosou. 	This damaged body, that diseased you- I shall remake them both.
とりどりのお花が、愛と死を紡いでいる 	toridori no ohana ga, ai to shi o tsunaide iru 	Various flowers are spinning a yarn of love and death
（繋いだ手と手） 	(tsunaida te to te) 	(Hand held in hand)
 	 	
悲しい苦しい、現の実に逆らいましょう。 	kanashii kurushii, gen no jitsu ni sakaraimashou. 	Sad and painful, let us go against our current reality.
嬉しい楽しい、天の国と繋がりましょう？ 	ureshii tanoshii, ten no kuni to tsunagarimashou? 	Happy and delightful, shall we connect with this heavenly country?
道連れのしもべが、愛と死を描いている 	michizure no shimobe ga, ai to shi o egaite iru 	An unwilling道連れ can have two meanings: the first refers to companions in travel. The second is forcing someone to go along with something. I felt like the second definition was more appropriate here, or at least carried more meaning. servant is painting pictures of love and death
（未来を現せて） 	(mirai o misete) 	(Let me see the future)
 	 	
ほうほうは、 	houhou wa, 	The method is,
じつに、 	jitsu ni, 	Truly,
かんたんなのさ。 	kantan nano sa. 	Easy as can be.
かんたんなのさ。 	kantan nano sa. 	Easy as can be.
きみにも、できるから。 	kimi ni mo, dekiru kara. 	Even you can do it, in fact.

いのちのおどりを 	inochi no odori o 	The dance of life,
さあ 	saa 	C'mon
踊らせて 	odorasete 	Make me dance it
踊らせて 	odorasete 	Make me dance it
さあ 	saa 	C'mon
 	 	
その　いのちの灯火を 	sono inochi no tomoshibi o 	That　light of life,
なびかせて 	nabikasete 	Make me yield to it靡かせる is itself a verb that means either to fly/flutter (in the context of things like hair or flags) or to win someone over. By that interpretation, an alternate way to would translate this would be "That light of life, / Make its heart yours" (to keep consistent with the wording). I assume that it's supposed to be causative form of なびく, however, because the rest of the lines in the song's chorus are all causative verbs and it never really breaks away from that at any other point. Also because その implies that the "light of life" is something close to "you"/the listener, meaning it would likely already be "yours." This all depends on interpretation, however.
なびかせて 	nabikasete 	Make me yield to it
ねえ 	nee 	Please

歪んだ心、産んだこの世、受け容れよう。 	yuganda kokoro, unda kono yo, ukeireyou. 	A twisted heart, this birthed world of the living- I shall accept it all.
神々が皆々、愛と死を嗤っている 	kamigami ga minamina, ai to shi o waratte iru 	Each and every one of the gods are laughing at love and death

やりかたは、 	yarikata wa, 	The way you do it isWhen written in Hiragana, "yarikata (やりかた)" means "the way you do (something). However, it can also be written in Kanji as 殺し方, which means "the way to kill (a person)". Since Maretu writes a number of words typically spelled with Kanji in Hiragana in this song (like 命 (inochi) becoming いのち or 踊り (odori) becoming おどり) it's safe to assume やりかた is another intentional instance of this.,
とても、 	totemo, 	Really,
かんたんなのさ。 	kantan nano sa. 	Easy as can be.
かんたんなのさ。 	kantan nano sa. 	Easy as can be.
だれでも、できるから。 	dare demo, dekiru kara. 	Anyone can do it, in fact.
