【Diabolik Lovers】 lyrics: Mr.SADISTIC NIGHT
I decided to get this one out of the way while I had it in my head before I moved on to other things. Although it's now considerably later than it was released, here's the Diabolik Lovers Anime OP Theme, "Mr.SADISTIC NIGHT". I actually kinda surprised--what with the overlying theme of this entire series and all--that the word "sadist/sadism" didn't show up in the song lyrics or titles sooner, quite honestly. Oh, and unlike any of the other OP themes for DiaLovers, this one does not include Subaru for some reason.
It took me a long while to realize it, but the booklet actually has the parts labeled with some very curvy script letters before each line where a change is relevant. But they're faded and in the background, so I never recognized it as more than a bunch of very curly smudges until yesterday. Besides that, the translation was as straightforward as DiaLovers songs ever are. And on a spur of the moment kind of thing, I finally finished watching the anime the other day (I gave up somewhere around episode 9) before I went to bed, which in hindsight, was probably a stupid idea on my part. Thankfully, I had no nightmares that night!
Now for something completely different: I finally got my hands on the kanji lyrics for the newest KamiAso duet "HOPE," so I think I'll get to those next~

Kanji: (from the booklet)
「……さぁ、覚悟はいいか？」
「……来いよ」
月夜の静寂-しじま-を切り裂き
追い駆ければ追い駆けるほど 感じた確信
Uh,まさかのfemme fatale-ファムファタル-？
幻惑-まど-わされた血-わな-に沸き立てば
組み伏せた掌-てのひら-に
煌めいた銀の十字-クロス-は 嗜虐-しぎゃく-の極みさ
「もっと欲しいんだろ？」
さあ、泣け！叫べ！ 激しく溢れ出る 真紅の衝動！
今宵、深く突き刺し 奥から覚醒-メザ-める、決死の欲望-リビドー-！
「もっと（ずっと）激しくして」
耐えきれぬ苦痛-いたみ-と愉悦-よろこび-は罪か？
戦慄いた朝焼けに誓う、吸血する運命-Fate-
そうさ、オレ達 Mr.Sadistic Night
禁じた祈祷-いのり-が響いて
生臨めば、死到達-きた-るMagic 遠のく核心
Ah,求めたdécadence-デカダンス-？
彩られた愛は消え失せて
接吻-くちづ-けた唇に
塗りたくる漆黒-くろ-いルージューは 加虐-かぎゃく-の憐憫
「……逝くまで、吸ってやる」
もう、涸れ果てた 幽かに揺れ動く 理性-キヲク-の残滓！
強く ネジ込んで往く 神すら見離す 九死の暗喩-メタファー-
善-Good-／悪-Bad- 意味を弁明(もと)め 抗えぬ瞳に映るBlood in the Moonlight
赦されぬ女神-アフロディーテ- 紅く、染め上げる真夜中-MIDNIGHT-
そうさ、オレ達 Mr.Sadistic Night
「もう誰にも渡さねぇよ……赦されない愛ほど」
「この血が沸き立つ……さあ、吸ってやる……」
「ふっ……この呪縛を、解き放ち」
「……オマエのすべてを手に入れる……」
「終わらない夜を、終わらせる、その血」
「夜明けまで、吸い尽くしてやる……」
「さあ、思う存分、逝け……」
「……ホント、たまんねぇ……」
「……ククッ、終わらせるわけねぇだろ？」
「……ククッ、終わらせるわけないだろ？」
さあ、泣け！叫べ！ 激しく溢れ出る 真紅の衝動！
今宵、深く突き刺し 奥から覚醒-メザ-める、決死の欲望-リビドー-！
「もっと（ずっと）激しくして」
耐えきれぬ苦痛-いたみ-と 愉悦-よろこび-は罪か？
戦慄-わなな-いた朝焼けに誓う、吸血する運命-Fate-
そうさ、オレ達 Mr.Sadistic Night

Translation:
“……So, are you prepared?”
“……Come!”
Shattering the silence of the moonlit night,
The more I chased after you, the more conviction I felt
Uh, could you be my femme fatale?
If I’m so aroused by the snare of your enticing blood
Held down in the palm of my hand,
That glistening silver cross is the height of sadism
“You want more, don’t you?”
So, weep! Scream! Crimson impulses overflowing violently!
Tonight, as I thrust deep into you, a lust for death awakens from within you!
“Even more, (always,) let’s make it violent!”
Is this unbearable agony and joy a crime?
Vow to the trembling sunrise, our bloodsucking fate
That’s right, we are Mr. Sadistic Night!
The forbidden prayer resounds
Facing life, the magic of approaching death is far from the core
Ah, did you seek decadence?
The love we’d painted is dying out
On those lips I’ve kissed,
The jet black rouge that coats them is the mercy of sadism
“……Until you die, I’ll suck you dry”
Already, you’ve run completely dry, with the faintly trembling dregs of your sanity!
Continually driving in my fangs, abandoned even by the gods, a metaphor of a narrow escape from death
Good/Bad, as you seek out their meaning, the blood in the moonlight reflected in your submissive eyes
My unforgivable Aphrodite, staining the midnight red
That’s right, we are Mr. Sadistic Night!
“I won’t hand you over to anyone else anymore……Such an unforgivable love”
“My blood boils…… So, I’ll suck you……”
“Heh…… Unleash this spell”
“……I’ll take all of you……”
“Putting an end to this endless night, your blood”
“Until dawn, I’ll suck you dry……”
“So, let’s do it to our hearts’ content……”
“……Truly, it’s irresistible……”
“……Hehe, there’s no way I’ll let this end, right?”
“……Hehe, there’s no way I’ll let this end, you know?”
So, weep! Scream! Crimson impulses overflowing violently!
Tonight, as I thrust deep into you, a lust for death awakens from within you!
“Even more, (always,) let’s make it violent!”
Is this unbearable agony and joy a crime?
Vow to the trembling sunrise, our bloodsucking fate
That’s right, we are Mr. Sadistic Night!
