ROMANIZED LYRICS:

Kiniro no zenmai ga yuganda ORUGOORU
Naranai MERODI wa ai no uta
Rekishi no kage ni kieta ORUGOORU
Hirakareru koto no nai houseki bako

Kare no tsukutta ORUGOORU wa hoka no dare no mono yori mo
Kirei na oto wo narashiteta
Hitobito wa kare no koto wo sonkei no nen wo komete
"Zenmai shii (KUROKKUWAAKAA)" to yonda

Aisuru konyakusha to daijina imouto
"Jibun wa shiawase mono da" to kare wa Kami ni kansha shita

Futari no tame ni tsukurou ai wo komete
Tobikiri joutou na ORUGOORU
Kore kara mo mirai ni sachi ookare to
Kare wa ORUGOORU ni omoi wo tsumeta

Ima wa mou naru koto no nai ORUGOORU

Kono kuni de wa yori tsuyoi majutsu no sainou wo motsu mono ga
Ou to nari subete wo te ni ireru
Arata na shihai sha kouho toshite erabareta no wa
Konyakusha to imouto

Haguruma ga kurui hajimeta nikushimi au futari
Majutsu nado sonzai shinakereba nakayoku kuraseta no ni

Saiaku no ketsumatsu kare ga mita mono wa
Chi ni somatta tsukuri kake no ORUGOORU
Taorete iru onna to nakisakebu onna
Dochira mo aishiteta aishiteta no ni

Ima wa mou naru koto no nai ORUGOORU

Katsute kuni ga atta basho ima wa haikyo
Shouki wo ushinatta roujin nanika wo tsukuru
Nani wo tsukutte iru no ka to tabibito ga tazuneta
Roujin wa kotaeru ORUGOORU da to

Dakedo sore wa
Tada no GARAKUTA ni shika mienai
Usu yogoreta kuroi hako datta

ENGLISH LYRICS:

A music box with golden springs that warped
The unplaying melody is a song of love
A music box that disappeared in the shadow of history
A jeweled box that won't be opened

The music boxes he made played with a sound that was
More beautiful than anyone else's
The people, filled with a sense of respect for him,
Called him "Clockworker"

A beloved fiancée and a precious younger sister
"I am a lucky man", he thanked god

For their sakes he would create it, filled with love
An extraordinary, peerless music box
In the music box he packed his wish
For their future then on to have great happiness

Now the music box won't play anymore

In this country, whoever possesses the strongest magical talent
Will become ruler, and obtain everything
The ones selected as candidates for new leader were
The fiancée and younger sister

The gears began to go mad, those two who came together in hatred
Could have lived together in harmony, if there was no such thing as magic

It was the worst conclusion; what he saw
Was the music box he built stained in blood
The fallen woman and the wailing woman
Both were loved, loved and yet
Now the music box won't play anymore

A place that used to have a country is now a ruin
An old man who's lost his sanity is making something
Travelers enquired as to what he's making
The old man replies that it's a music box

But it
Was a dirty black box
That just looks like simple trash

TRIVIA:

•The song's title references the nostalgia brought about by the lullaby, likely for Elluka.

•The song's English title, "Clockwork requiem", refers to the tragedy of the Clockworker's with the death of Elluka.

•In media, the music box is often used to lead into reminisces and other flashback scenes.

•The Evils Court booklet notes that a powerful testimony was obtained regarding the "Clockworker" who went missing, although the full picture concerning the Levianta Catastrophe remained a mystery.

•Later in the booklet, Gammon Octosummarizes the song, saying it was obvious who won; he then notes that it's uncertain if the "loser" disappeared from history, admitting they could only wait for her to tell them personally.

•In The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green, Michaela calls the song spell Elluka taught her "Recollective Musicbox", a tragic song for workers also called "Clockwork Requiem"; using the spell, Michaela was able to alert Elluka about the location of the vessel of Lust.

•Interestingly, Michaela was uninformed of the song's meaning, as Elluka had only a short time to teach her and therefore left out the "unnecessary things", leaving the incarnated spirit clueless.

•The song was rearranged by mothy, titled "Clockworker -Recollective Musicbox-", employing a slower-pace, different instruments, and Kiyoteru's vocals singing the lyrics from a first-person perspective; it was included in Original Sin Story -Act 2-.
