Garasu no Shiro

Kikoeru, kikoeru
Watashi no mimi ni wa tashika ni kikoeru
Ano mune o utsu himei wa
Garasu no shiro ga kowarete yuku koe
Osanaki koro ni akogareta
Garasu no shiro no ouhisama
Otogibanashi wa kireina ehon
Shiawase wa e no naka dake datta

Kudake chitta garasu no shiro wa
Ima mo kirakira kagayaite iru keredo
Mou watashi wa furikaeranai
Garasu no shiro o sarite
Hokori takaku ayunde yuku toki
Watashi wa hontou no ouhi ni naru deshou
Glass Palace

I can hear it, I can hear it
My ears surely hear it
This scream beating at my breast
Is the voice that will break this palace of glass
As a child, I yearned for
The queen in the glass palace
A fairytale for a beautiful picture book
But I only found such happiness in art

This shattered palace of glass
May still glitter and sparkle
But I can’t look back anymore
I’m leaving this glass palace
I’ll walk proudly when I go
And maybe I’ll become a true queen.
