Song Lyrics in FFXIV: Compilation, Discussion, and Interpretation

Apologies for the double post, but we have lyrics for yet another song! As many of us cannot pass Raubahn's Gate, I'll keep the necessary info in a spoiler tag. It's nothing major, mind you, but just as a bit of common courtesy. Anyway, to the lyrics (and thanks to a youtube comment I can no longer find for helping me with some words)!

Beauty's Wicked Wiles- Theme of Lakshmi

Night
Embrace her worldly delights
Tonight
In time you shall follow
In time you shall follow
Behold as our burdens comes off with the song

Tonight
Step from the dark to the light
Tonight

Rise high
High above our rivals
Spread our wings
Spread them wide
Let them by

Keep on
Free to ever slumber
Open the door, close our eyes
We are the Dreamers

Fire
Born of the flames of desire
This fire
Give in to the hunger
Give in to the hunger
Cast off inhibition, let passion run wild!

Desire
Though the unquenchable fire
Desire

Rise high
High above your rivals
Spread your wings
Spread them wide
You need not hide

Keep on
Free to never slumber
Open the door, close your eyes
You are the Dreamer

Can't spoilers but there is a Ala Mhigan version to the Garlean Anthem.

Am I only the one that thought the Lahkshmi song was dreadfully annoying?

No, I quite frankly love her song. Her tone is very playful, I'd go so far as say she's bubbly, but she's doesn't come off like other primals wherein her appeal is power over others insomuch as she's offering joy and comfort. Like a lover.

Anyone written Ala Mihgo's anthem outside the game? The Boss theme seems to be a small mix of its instrumental followed by Stormblood.

I got this from DRK quest

O come ye wayward brothers,♪
Bereft of hearth and home,♪
Beneath yon burning star there lies♪
A haven for the bold...♪

Raise up your hands and voices!♪
Let fill your hearts with pride!♪
Above the churning waters we♪
Stand strong and unified!♪

Does it fit?

For those who have cleared The Royal Menagerie (was quite painful at the beginning but gradually got the hang of it lol), in the 2nd phase (after the Active Time Manoeuvre bit) of the fight there are some choral parts prior to the Stormblood theme coming back... I can't make out anything at all other than it sounding much like it was in Latin.... anyone?

I am waiting on transcribing that. After Ultima Weapon's theme, as well as Thordan's, we know that Soken doesn't always use live choirs for chanting sections of songs. As such, it could just be gibberish and not Latin or whatever other language it could be.

Actually, doing a comparison, Ultima and Thordan's themes sound synthesized and most of the Royal Menagerie is as well. However, there is a live choir during the last section of Royal Menagerie, during the Stormblood theme section . Trying to figure out what they are singing there. Sounds English. I'll get back to you =3
