I'm working on english lyrics for a song from a game I like, '礼賛歌/Raisanka' by Valkyrie, but need help properly understanding the tone of the originals. I know this group's songs tend to have poetic kanji and phrasing that don't really come up in daily life which can make their songs hard to quickly parse, but I don't know to what degree. My only points of reference are my Japanese teacher telling me that words like "誘おう" and "捧げる" are more for poetry than casual conversation. I know I can barely understand the lyrics, but I'm also bad with kanji.
In short, are these lyrics something a casual listener should be able to immediately understand? Would words like "cynosure," "lassitude," and "sempiternal" be tonally equivalent or should I dial it back?
