English translyrics: Seven Crimes and Punishments

seven crimes and punishments

(nanatsu no tsumi to batsu)

original: mothy ft. vocaloid x7+1

~~~

-irregular-

Let us begin, shall we?

~~~

-lust-

Seven flowers dance upon the breeze

Symbols of a sin that has just been released

Hide away this ugly face

With the one I want, it is replaced,

As I drown in my twisted desires

---

-gluttony-

Seven seeds descend upon the earth

Taking root, they grow to evil's rebirth

Everything will burn away

In my stomach acid's sweet embrace

All the world will burn on this pyre

---

-pride-

Built up upon the gems of pride and disdain

There's not a single soul that can topple this evil reign!

---

-chorus:-

Curséd by the twins, this land fell to sin

Malice was the name, of the thing that brought us to shame

What kind of tale, will be drawn in the end?

Will the seven crimes, be given a rightful punishment?

---

-sloth-

Through the seven winds of death's despair

Poison violates a world cruel and unfair

Even now, I cannot sleep,

As I watch it all, I start to weep,

For the sin that is drawn out is a fake

---

-envy-

On the surface of the seven springs

I can see reflections of such lovely things

But the face of he whom I adore

Is distorted in the water's lore

If only those around him could just fade away...

---

-greed-

Buried in soil like a prison of fate

This farce that they call a "trial" that I lead is subsumed in hate

---

-chorus: sloth, envy, greed-

Everyone desires pleasures all their own

One Utopia they possess alone

What kind of world will happen at last?

When the seven are judged

And their punishment will come to pass?

---

-wrath-

Is that the song of mourning of the forest so sad?

Rather, I hear the gunshot that brings death upon the land.

---

-chorus: all-

Curséd by the twins, this land fell to sin

Malice was the name, of the thing that brought us to shame

What kind of tale, will be drawn in the end?

Will the seven crimes, be given a rightful punishment?
