{{Quote|We will open the door to tomorrow.|The souls of the Third Period|Mothy}}

'''Song of the Third Period''' is a song released by [[Akuno-P]] on August 10, 2018 on the [[Clockwork Lullaby (album)|Clockwork Lullaby]] album. It is the thirteenth song in the [[Clockwork Lullaby Series]], and is sung by the [[soul]]s in the [[Third Period]], led by [[Michaela]] as they prepare to move on to the [[Periods#Fourth Period|next world]].

==Plot==
After [[Allen Avadonia|Allen]] and [[Riliane Lucifen d'Autriche|Riliane]] created the [[Periods#Fourth Period|Fourth Period]] with the [[Re_birthday]] function, the [[soul]]s from the [[Third Period]] start to gather in the [[Millennium Tree Forest]] in preparation to move onto the new world. Upon [[Michaela]]'s encouragement, they begin singing about how, even as time continues to move on and their new journey awaits, they will surely be changed someday. They continue that, in spite of all the pain they might and have experienced, it is part of who they are; even if they don't know what awaits them in the Fourth Period, they will press on without needing a "utopia".

<poem>
第三の月 大樹に集い
今こそ歌いましょう
るりら るりら
君に届くように

流れる時はいつも僕らに
旅立ち急かすけど
それはいつか
君を強く変える

胸の中 高鳴る鼓動
僕らのぜんまいは止まらない

るりらるりら るりらるりら
この唄声が
るりらるりら るりらるりら
響く限り
眠りは覚め 夢はきっと現実になる
開く明日への扉

桜舞う中 大地踏みしめ
みんなで歌いましょう
るりら るりら
空に届くように

悲しい事や辛い思い出
たくさんあるけれど
それも含め
僕らの歩くんだ道

胸の奥 宿るぜんまい
これからは自分で回すんだ

るりらるりら るりらるりら
この唄声が
るりらるりら るりらるりら
響く限り
扉の先 何が待ち受けているのかも
わからないまま進む

立ちふさがり続ける現実が
時に僕らを傷つけるだろう

それでも だからこそ
人は懸命に生きる
世界は理想郷じゃなくてもいい

胸の中 高鳴る鼓動
僕らのぜんまいは止まらない

るりらるりら るりらるりら
この唄声が
るりらるりら るりらるりら
響く限り
眠りは覚め 夢はきっと現実になる
開く明日への扉

<poem>
Under the third moon, gathered around a great tree
Let’s sing now
Lu li la lu li la
So that it might reach you

The flowing time always urges us
Along on our journey
But someday
That will strongly change you

Let’s all sing together
Lu li la lu li la

This quickly pounding beat in our chests
Our springs won’t stop

Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
As long as our singing voices
Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
Resound
We will wake from our sleep and the dream will surely become reality
We will open the door to tomorrow

Stepping firmly on the ground as cherry blossom petals fly around us
Let’s all sing together
Lu li la lu li la
So that it might reach the sky

There are a lot of sad things
And a lot of painful memories
But that too
Is part of the path we will walk

These springs deep in our chests
From here on out we will turn them ourselves

Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
As long as our singing voices
Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
Resound
Without knowing what lies in wait beyond the door
We will push forward

The reality that continues to stand in our way
May wound us every now and then

Even so, it is for that reason
That people live with all they are
The world doesn’t need to be a utopia

This quickly pounding beat in our chests
Our springs won’t stop

Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
As long as our singing voices
Lu li la lu li la lu li la lu li la
Resound
We will wake from our sleep and the dream will surely become reality
We will open the door to tomorrow

==Trivia==
===Conceptualization and Origin===
* The song resembles [[Wikipedia:Japan|Japanese]] [[Wikipedia:Academic graduation by country#Japan|graduation songs]], with its slow [[Wikipedia:Tempo|tempo]] and [[Wikipedia:Choir|chorus]] singing; the song follows the souls of the Third Period moving onto the Fourth Period.

===Curiosities===
* The piano melody of [[Master of the Heavenly Yard]] can be heard at the start of the song.
* In the [[Clockwork Lullaby (album)|Clockwork Lullaby album]], [[Kiril Clockworker]] notes that the singing voices of the souls have reached him in [[Clockwork Lullaby Series#Angolmois|Angolmois]], discovering that there are more songs in the [[Clockwork Lullaby]].{{ref|album|Clockwork Lullaby (album)|Clockwork Lullaby 12}}
