The Catcher in the Maiden's Maze

My swaying heart is like a pendulum
Which throbs on the right and has sadness on the left
It’s sweetly enchanting, yet painful
Lets gaze at each other

A maiden’s pure heart is like a flower bud
Such sayings are common
But anyone knows this delicate impatience

Maze, it’s an innocent feeling, yet
Yes, it somehow resembles an adult’s love, this passion

I embrace this more than dreams of yearning
More than yearning itself
I’m no longer just a maiden, I’m calling out my love
It’s not only, it’s not only me
Everyone feels this shyness, it won’t stop
Why do I desperately want to meet you?

The chocolate in my heart becomes an aphrodisiac
Teardrops fall on my lips, panic
If everything is dyed red, I would collapse
I may end up running away

But innocence is like a short-lived fairy
I really just want to fly away
When I quietly peek into my heart, I understand it better

Shade, the shadow of jealousy pierces my maze
No, I will not lose, there is only one right answer

I want to believe, and I will believe that tomorrow
Which I have sworn upon exists
Maidens are always endlessly spinning this story
Within you, even within you
There is a flower sleeping, don’t you want to wake it up
Before someone plucks it?

I embrace this more than dreams of yearning
More than yearning itself
I’m no longer just a maiden, I’m calling out my love
It’s not only, it’s not only me
Everyone feels this shyness, it won’t stop
Why do I desperately want to meet you?
