Translation

The son went to work in tattered rags His father's memento is a leather money bag As he counts the coins, he laments how they fall short His mother's ailment calls for money

He took all kinds of work to secure his income, be it digging graves, or dirtying both hands

There is a Dragon god dwelling in stone at the far end of this land with a treasure that trades life span for how much your gold weighs Getting wind of that, the son rushed out of his house and descended the mountain Unable to stop her son, the mom feels the pain in her chest getting even worse

He recklessly traversed the steep paths and ended up collapsing in front of an unknown girl

Listening to his reason (excuse) to save money, she said, "Without food nor water, you'd drop dead too, ".

The rumoured dragon, now fallen and sunken in the spring Immortal (eternal) life and the Dragon's treasure - neither is better than a legend Her talk casts a gloom on him, then the girl leads him by the hand, and he begins his way to his hometown (old home), with the placebo on his back

The son bringing home the girl overjoyed his mother Perhaps she is here to be their bride? Her wrong idea turns into truth The girl settled down in their house unawares. With the mom who regained her health and together with the money they saved, they're living their life in happiness.

(canoue) Leto ~The Queen's lips narrates~

This is track 3 from album『canoueV ~The Dragon’s coffin is under the spring~』produced by circle canoue.

- Track info -

Track name : レト～女王の唇は語る～ (Leto ~Joou no kuchibiru wa kataru~) Compose & Arrange : MANYO Lyric : Hiyama Nao Vocal : Shimotsukin Haruka

The full version of the song can be listened here, from canoue’s official youtube channel.

Translation

Little Lady dances in a small rose garden The story that narrates history from her beloved queen (mother)'s lips

Her Highness was subjected to a tragedy, even the kingdom (domain) where she grew up was taken away; in this prison that no light shines through, is it tomorrow or demise that awaits?

To keep safe in her memories at least the castle taken over in a single night, she offers a kiss of betrothal (oath) to the enemy (hatred) in her eyes

『I shall become the nectar (poison) to drive mad those insects (bugs) that murdered His Majesty (father) and fed off us————』

Countless people lost their head over her voice that can lead even gods astray Before long, she held the fiends spellbound and got hold of the real poison

Those painful and depraved days are all for this moment (time); she fills the goblet with a curse that kindly beckons her husband......

the sounds of the insects leading to the throne a queen was born, crowned with the diadem for a new domain in place of sweet illusions (daydreams)

In the rose garden from back then, her portrait is with a smile (laughter) The story that narrates (belies) history from those cold stony lips
