サンドリヨン (Cendrillon)

サンドリヨン (Sandoryon Cendrillon) is a duet originally sung by Kaito and Miku Hatsune,

composed by Signal-P. Several covers, parodies, and alternate PVs have been created. Cendrillon is

somewhat similar in spirit to カンタレラ (Cantarella), and interestingly the varying interpretations and

alternate versions of the two songs parallel each other. The story is a retelling of Cinderella with a dark

twist. A girl (Miku) attends a ball to kill the prince (Kaito) in order to cause "sadness and ruin" when the

clock strikes twelve. As the girl and the prince meet, they dance together and fall in love. The girl

becomes increasingly conflicted as midnight approaches, falling into a dilemma as she does not want to

kill him. Eventually the girl stabs the prince when the bell rings. The final lines of the song discuss the

moment right after the prince is stabbed while she can still feel him with her, and muses on how they want

the moment to last forever.

Japanese Lyrics
朝まで踊る夢だけ見せて 時計の鐘が解く魔法 曖昧な指誘う階段 三段飛ばしに跳ねていく

馬車の中で震えてた みじめな古着　めくり廻れ夜の舞踏

見知らぬ顔探す　囁くあの声が 握り締めた刃衝きたて　すべてを奪えと 孤児（みなしご）集う城　笑み仮面に描いて 偽りの慈しみさえ　羽で包む熾天使（セラフ)

灰の中で赤く溶けて混じる硝子の靴

今更帰る震えているの あなたが目をやる時計 靴脱ぎ踊るスロープ抜けて 喉まで伸びる指の先で

すくう雫口付けて 走る衝動　背骨抜けていく刹那

鐘は鳴らさないで　あなたにひざまずき まだダメと叫んだ右手が　突き刺すサヨナラ 消せない硝煙を香水にまとう姫 強い瞳僕の凍った　仮面ごと撃ち抜く

今も耳にあなたの吐息が 突き刺さるの遠い夢 ステンドグラスごし光る月が 君にかぶせたベール

ドレス膝で裂いて　ティアラは投げ捨てて 見つめあう瞳と瞳が　火花を放つ 孤独な魂が炎あげ惹かれあう その涙すくえないなら　まるで一人遊び

時よ止まれ今は　あなたに酔いしれて 揺れる鼓動一つ一つを　刻み付けてたい とどまれ熱く濡れ　打ち付ける昂まりに これ以上は動けないよ　まるで御伽噺（フェアリィテイル）

English Lyrics
It seemed like only a dream when we danced till morning. The clock ticked away with a magic ring. Fingers calling to me to escape down the stairs. Three steps at a single time to hide the dark truth.

The bitter coldness of a horse drawn carriage. Dancing with clothes that would turn back into miserable rags at night.

Find a stranger with a masked face. A person who whispers softly to you. Holding onto the hilt of your sharp blade, it will cause sadness and ruin.. Orphans gather inside the castle. Each of their faces with a fake smile. The wings of an angel don't hold the answers they will not help you to know the truth.

The glass slipper, that was left behind, slowly melts into a red flame's ashes.

I see that you're trembling as you wish to return home. You take a glance at the clock tower. My dancing shoes fell down a slope as I kicked them off. My fingers slowly wrapped around his neck.

I tried to remedy her falling tears. All the electrifying impulses flowing through my nerves were too much.

I never want the bell to ring, I let out a cry and said goodbye, With my knife in hand I stabbed you violently,. Even though it was a dilemma. The princess who wears a perfume that had the scent of deadly gunpowder. My mask of ice with a flaming gaze that broke, it was too much to handle.

I could still feel his breathe on my skin. But it's only a dream of long ago. The silver moon it drapes her in a shimmering glow. Then she shines like the brightest stars.

Rip this dress with your running legs. You no longer need to wear your crown. A quick glance into your eyes, it sparks a flame that could warm two lonely souls. There is just no satisfaction in playing the only one who is not Able to stop your flooded eyes from flowing for now and forever.

I just wish that time would stand still. I want to savor this moment for all time. I want to be able to store it away, the sound of your beautiful beating heart. This sensation fills me with joy, this wonderful warm and wet feeling. And my whole body is immobilized. It makes me feel like I'm in a fairy tale.

アドレサンス (Adolescence)
Sung by Rin/Len Kagamine, this is a rearrangement of the song with different lyrics. Orange, who

wrote the lyrics, says that the song is about twins (Rin and Len) who were like two peas in a pod and

grew up to come to the age of puberty where they can't share the same bed as they did when they were

little children. They no longer are perfect look-alikes since they hit adolescence and their bodies are

developing differently. They both sing about how hard it is to be separated because they are always

together. While Rin states throughout the song that she doesn't want Len to leave her, he remains

hesitant throughout the song until the end when he states that he will no longer retreat from her.
