Lyrics
Volume 9, page 468...
The Avalon dynasty, kingdom of Britannia. Two heroines who were symbols of that era.
The poet extolled as , Luna Ballad
Even after being afflicted with an eye disease and losing her light after a harsh journey, she still continues to sing
A woman who, through her songs, continued to illuminate flickers of hope within the darkness of her listener's hearts
The queen extolled as , Rose Guine Avalon
As the niece to the tyrant queen, she was the first princess in line for the throne
A woman who relieved her people of their suffering under the former ruler's tyranny
"Let's put an end to the era when [songs] were oppressed by [the rose]...if only to not lose to my own weakness, I have taken upon the name of a person I hold dear...ah...Endymio...no matter what storms may arrive, I can keep on singing..."
"I want everyone to regain their pride and hearts that once loved their motherland. Can I make this country into our beloved homeland again? The winter rose has withered, and a late spring has arrived. I'll take an oath right here – that I'll become a rose blessed by the Goddess of Light[Brigitte]..."
The 627th year of the Britannian calender
The King of Flandre, Childebert VI Changed his kingdom's name to Holy Flandre Empire and laid down the foundation for an imperial government
St. Childebert VI reigned as the first emperor
And began his invasion of Britannia under the name of ...
That is...an excerpt from one of Luna Ballad's poems depicting the people who have once suffered in long periods of troubles
Now united under a new rose...
Cloaking ourselves with proud flames, we took up swords to protect our motherland
O, comrades who bear the noble queen's rose upon their chests
Give praise to our
Ah...may the blessing of the Goddess of Light[Brigette] be upon them...
Sent off by a song of prayer, the brave sons of Britannia headed towards the battlefield...
Translated by Defade.

Avalon朝 Britannia王国 時代を象徴する二人の女傑ヒロイン
<地上の月輝つき>と謳われた詩人 Luna Ballad
苛酷な旅の果てに眼病を患い 光を失ってなお歌い続け
その詩を通して聴く者の心の闇に 希望の光を灯し続けた女性
<至上の薔薇>と謳われた女王 Rose Guine Avalon
暴君として知られた女王の姪であり 王位継承権第一位の姫であった
先王の治世下 その圧政に苦しむ民衆を解放した女性
(ルーナバラッド)
「<権力者バラ>によって<思想・言論の自由>うた>が弾圧されるような時代は
もう終わりにしましょう...弱い自分に負けない為にも
私は大切な人の名前を背負った...嗚呼...Endymio
もうどんな嵐が訪れようとも 私は歌い続けられる…」
(ローザギネアヴァロン)
「皆にもう一度誇りを取り戻して欲しい 祖国を愛する心を
この国は皆が愛した故郷に戻れるだろうか?
冬薔薇は枯れ 今遅い春が訪れた 私は此処に誓う
光の女神ブリギットに祝福される薔薇になると…」
Britannia暦627年
時の...Flandre国王 Childebert6世
国号を神聖Flandre帝国と改め帝政を敷き
聖サンChildebert6世として初代皇帝に即位
<聖戦>と称し Britanniaの侵略を開始…
<薔薇の騎士団ナイツ オブ ザ ローズ>
それは...長かった苦境の時代を引き摺っていた人々が新しい薔薇の下
一つに纏まってゆく情景を綴った Luna Balladの詩の一節…
誇り高き炎を纏い祖国くにを護る為に剣を取った
胸に気高き女王クイーンの薔薇を抱いた同胞ともを
称えよ我らの<薔薇の騎士団ナイツ オブ ザ ローズ>を
嗚呼...光の女神ブリギットの祝福が在らんことを...
祈りの歌に見送られ 勇敢なBritanniaの息子達は戦場へと向かった…
