English translation
Quietly, quietly,

Cut the curtains down

Blue flames are born

On the dawn awakening

We walked and hugged

Embracing a weakness that knows of no defeat

Let's carve an era

With new fangs

Quietly, quietly,

Cut the curtains down

Blue flames are born

On the dawn of awakening

Until that day when I met you,

the one I want to protect,

I'd rather take down my enemies immediately

Than go for a long fight

So loved, so loved

That I don't need anything else

I watched everything from here

I'll finish it all and lead you there

Just don't let go

This melody of the wild dance

It will never stop echoing

Japanese (Romaji)
Shizuka ni shizuka ni maku wa kiri otoshi

Kakusei no yoake ni aoi honou

Miwatasu kagiri no yami to katto wo te saguri no hibi

Bokura wa make wo shiranai yowasa wo dakishime aruita

Atarashii kiba de jidai wo kizame.

Shizuka ni shizuka ni makuwa kiri otoshi

Kakusei no yoake ni aoi honou

Mamoritai anata ni deaeru sono hi made wa

Yuushu nobi yori me no mae no teki wo

Kokoro nai kotoba hoko saki subete wo nomi komi aruita

Tsukareta hushin wa jishin ni neji mage.

Kurushikute nige takute maga sashita mirai wa

Yume egaita bokura to tooi tokoro de

Jikan nante hosou nante kechi rashite hohoenda

Ano koro nani mo kowa nakatta ro?

Shizuka ni shizuka ni maku wa kiri otoshi

Kakusei no yoake ni aoi honou

Mamoritai anata ni deaeru sono hi made wa

Yuushu nobi yori me no mae no teki wo

Itoshikute itoshikute hoka ni wa nani mo nakute

Koko kara miwatashita keshiki zenbu

Matomete tsurete itte ageru sa hanasanai de

Zutto nari yamanu RANBU NO MELODY.

Japanese (Kana)
静かに　静かに　幕は斬りおとし

覚醒の夜明けに　蒼い炎

僕らは　負けを知らない弱さを　抱きしめ　歩いた

新しい牙で　時代を刻め

静かに　静かに　幕は斬りおとし

覚醒の夜明けに　蒼い炎

「守りたいあなた」に　出会える　その日までは

有終の美より　目の前の敵を

愛しくて　愛しくて　他には何もなくて

ここから見渡した　景色　全部

まとめて　連れていってあげるさ　離さないで

ずっと鳴り止まぬ　乱舞のメロディ
