私は　誰かの王様ではない 私は　誰かの兵隊でもない くだけた鏡を　はりあわせていくように こわれた世界をひろい集めているのだ！ 我は　コレクター！ 我は　コレクター！　コレクター！ 私は　明日を手放しはしない 私は　昨日を葬りはしない 五線譜の上にならんだ音符のように　　 ちぎれた時間を並べなおしているのだ！ 我は　コレクター！ 我は　コレクター！　コレクター！ 見るがいい…至福の光を 聞くがいい…天上の調べを 私は地上に　しばられはしない 私は空から　見下ろしはしない プリズムの中に閉じ込めた夢を 抱きしめていたい… それがわたしの…コレクション！

I’m not someone’s king. I’m not someone’s soldier. Like piecing together a shattered mirror, I gather the pieces of a broken world. I am a collector! I am a collector! Collector! I won’t let go of tomorrow; I won’t bury yesterday. Like notes lined up on a musical score, I realign tattered bits of time. I am a collector! I am a collector! Collector! You may look... at this sublime light. You may listen... to this heavenly melody. I will not be bound to the earth; I will not just look down from the sky. I want to embrace The dreams trapped in this prism... That is my... collection!
