This time I bring you the translation of Team P’s Paradise Lost★ I was on my way home from a business trip when the MV dropped and I just stopped functioning on the spot lmfao How could I not? The MV is gorgeous, plus my biases Rindou, Ginsei, & Sinju are in there, in the same team (even if it’s temporary), which is a dream come true! I will never get over ParaLost era!
I’ve been dying to translate it since then and even though I had actually already translated part of it for one of my edits, I just found the time to finish it. sorry for the wait, enjoy! 😘

ENGLISH
(Game Version)
I want to kiss
Those beautiful fingers
Your eyes are sparkling
Just like Sirius
You’re the devil
Don’t look away
demon
Are you embarrassed?
fallen angel
I want you
shut up
But you already know that
I can see right through you
Oh yes, you’re right
That is such a cliché
so what? just chill out angel.
Just stop harassing us
Just listen to my voice only
And look at me only
You are looking down, so
I will give your cute trembling lips
A sweet kiss
Paradisum
If you lace your fingers together
And continue to take long breaths
You will surely understand
In a sweet voice
Say “Please”
And just like that
I will grant your wish
It’s too late to go back now
You’re not happy about that, right?
Captive Princess
Being swept away by the wave of instinct
Let’s fall into the darkness together
Don’t hide and show me everything
Sinful Liesel 
Hello. Please don’t apologize. I am just glad you are back.
If I may, how do you find out what each song is based on? Like the stories, books, etc.?

I just listened to the song for the first time and fell in love with it. I don’t know much about the game and Maica but I’ve listened to a song from Kradness before. So the chorus makes sense. But everything before that sounds so feminine, I thought it’s a woman singing. That’s Kradness???

Something else that confuses me is the title “Paradise Lost”. When I read it I thought the lyrics might be about Satan/Lucifer but it’s about Mephistopheles? I might be silly but I don’t see the connection…

I can see why it’s confusing since I thought the same thing at first lol I believe there’s a work with that same name that has Satan in it, but the reason why it’s Mephistopheles is because he is the devil from the original work which Paradise Lost is based on.
