わが﨟たし悪の華
Vocabulary from ALI PROJECT: 'Waga Routashi Aku no Hana (わが﨟たし悪の華)' (Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 ED2 (コードギアス 反逆のルルーシュ R2 ED2) · 2008).
濁世は鬼 正義は何ぞと
問うまえに抗えよ悪徳の華
偽善の夢視し目には目を差し
生も邪も分かたれることなし
光は絶え胎児のように
君は眠る闇の子宮
孤独こそ愛おしい
唯一の味方となるだろう
ひとりひとり血汐にまみれ
この時代に生まれ落ちた
選ばれし皇子らよ
戦いこそ祝筵
ああ我は麗し 全智
愛の母 君を産む
この乳に育みしものは
地獄の同胞
黙示の印 真理は何ぞと
知りもせず埋もれし隠匿の種
諸刃の剣抜く刃には刃を向け
守るべきものだけを信じて
有るがままに君は君を放て
断末魔の叫びを浴びて
爛熟せしこの世界に
呑み込まれ意を殺がれ
ただ生きる屍の群れ
それは君が踏みしだくもの
哀れむことは易けれど
救われず掬われる
裏切りの人の道
ああ我は臈たし 美徳
母の愛 君を喰む
この腹に孕み続けるは
異形の翼か
獄司の錠 真実は在りや
探せども果てもなし混沌の檻
審判の矢射る手には手を触れ
虚と実が折れ曲がり交わる
夜明けるまで君は君に淫す
盛れよ咲けよ
散り急ぐことなかれ
黙示の印 真理は何ぞと
知りもせず埋もれし陰徳の種
諸刃の剣 抜く刃には刃を向け
守るべきものだけを信じよ
濁世は鬼 正義は何処と
問うよりも咲き誇れ悪徳の華
偽善の夢視し目には目を差し
生も死も境界はあるまじ
最期の刻 君は君に殉じ
すべてを抱き 悟らん
