We have no freedom, you know.
Were we to look like everyone else we could live without angering others,
but that we cannot do.
It's not that we desire to look unusual, or to stand out from the crowd. But
more than other people,
our appearance is flashy and so,
we, we are laughed at, and from time to time make to look the fool.
"Lolitas" they say as if to despise us.
Bokutachi wa totemo fujiyuu desu ne.
Minna to onaji kakkou o shite ireba, dare kara mo okorarezuni sumu no ni,
sore ga dekinai.
Betsu ni, myou na sugata o shite, medachitai wake de wa nai no ni, ta no

nagesumu you ni kakerareru "roriita" no kotoba.
From time to time we are so sad we wish not to exist, and without being able
to endure we break down and cry.
That's right; we pay no mind to those who would treat us with contempt.
But when we know our beloved western clothes are being scorned,
That is the feeling we cannot bear, and in our mortification we cry.
In the sadness of not being able to protect our most important thing we
flounder.
To the thing that allows us to stand by ourselves, and allows us this wonderful
dillusion,
We have nothing to give in return. What shame!
But why, until this point, is it that we are not free....
Toki doki, kanashikute, tsuyoku arenuba to omoedo, taekirezu, naite
shimaimasu.
Sou, jibun ga bujoku sareru no wa ikkou ni kamawanai no desu.

Bokutachi wa naze ni koko made, fujiyuu na no ka...
If we think back, from the time we were born we were felt this way; it seems
we were never free.
If we say "oh, that's cute" without recognizing it to be too
shoujo,
when we express our thoughts, we are shouted at and told we are apart
from society. This always happens.
Since when, we have been harassed and withdrawn, and eventually became
unable to open our hearts to people.
We have lived on, unable to abandon our faith towards that which we love.
It would be better to forsake it, and though we know we would would then
be accepted by our peers, we have yet grown rather attached.
Omoeba, umarete kita toki kara, bokutachi wa,
zutto kou shite, fujiyuu datta ki ga shimasu.

Were we to bid farewell then we would be liars.
Lies and such, in order to live, are things that must be told. But, regarding
that which we love,
We desire to tell not even a single lie. There is nothing we want to hide.
To them, the other is probably our western clothes. But to us, they are
everything you see.
It gave us hope, gave us courage, gave to we who accept our lonliness,
our destiny
It was that which they all scolded us for as worthless: it was Lolita.
Datte, sore to ketsubetsu sureba, usotsuki ni

Hey, you. As for me, I'm thinking perhaps I shall start a war.
Now perhaps it is too late, and perhaps it will do no good,
But I have decided, and so shall fight forevermore.
Your mother will say it. "Don't go outside like that!"
You classmates will jeer. "Can't you be more normal?"
Your boyfriend will lament. "It's embarrassing to walk along the
street with you."
But you've already met with it.
The thing you have desired at great lengths.
And you already know it.
The location of your store, where you are free to go.
Nee, kimi. Boku wa ne, ima, tatakai o idomou to omotte iru no desu.
Imasara, mou osoi kamoshiremasen ga, soshite muimi na no kamoshiremasen

Boku wa, tatakau koto o kimeta no desu
The pious orthodox Jews wear their black yamachas and cloaks,
Wear their sideburns long to live their lives daily in prayer
As you alone must wear these western clothes as proof of your creed
In entrusting your body to a creed of heresy you hesitated a while, didn't
you?
But you need draw out only a little courage.
Since you now know what is most important to you.
Hontou wa, undoukai de () suru no sae () datta
boku desu.
Heiwa wa ichiban nante koto wa omotte ha imasen deshita. Dekireba,
hito ni yaiba nado muketaku wa arimasen deshita.
Ga, sensou ga hajimatta no desu.
So tie on your head dress above a corsett constrained body,
Train a panie under your skirt and then, if you stand before the mirror,
Will a unicorn appear to bestow a kiss of blessing upon your cheek.
This is what he will say:
Heddodoresu o atama ni tsuke, korusetto de bodi
o shimetsuke,
Sukaato no naka ni panie o shikonde, kagami no mae ni tateba
Ikakkujuu ga araware, kimi no hoho ni shukufuku no seppun o sazukemasu.
Ikakkujuu wa iimasu.
These are the battle clothes of the precious ones, the few chosen to
fight the many who lack the power to see dreams.
They will see, and will brand you as an escapee who has rejected the reality
of becoming an adult.
But the wished for world of the ones exists only outside of reality.
You knod your head decisively*.
An existance in reality is truly loathesome to you.
Kore wa anata no sentoufuku, yumemiru chikara
no nai ooku hitobito to tatakau tame no.
Minna, anata ni otona ni naru koto o kyohi shita genjitsu touhisha

Demo genjitsu o koeta bashou ni shika anata no motomeru sekai wa

Kimi wa kokkuri unazukimasu.
Mou, genjistu ni ikiru no wa unzari na no desu.
So you will live in eternity as a representitive from a world of illusions.
Gothic and Lolita --- those who have been chosen to die as martyrs for
beauty.
Gothic and Lolita --- the descendants of devils and angels who hide their
wings.
Kimi wa eien no inochi o mochi gensou no kuni

Goshikku & Loliita --- sore wa bi ni junjiru kakugo o motta

Goshikku & Lolita --- sore wa hane o kakushi motsu akuma to
