Official Lyrics Revealed (Earlier Than Expected!)

Sing, Sing a Song
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/blog/000788.html


(The first stanza is written in Old High Sylphic, with an adapted Eorzean translation to the right)

Thunder Rolls
Ula menida tula oh (Hoary Arbor, Lord of Light)
Tela omnida tula ei (Thine advent quelleth creeping night)
Ona ramuhda deme os (The wicked burn, their pyres bright)
Nola tulama tela ei (Smote by Levin's blinding might)

Soul without a name, heed my call
Sin doth stain the hearts of us all
The worm hath burrowed deep and hath grown
Soon he too shall reap what is sown

Step into the storm, know its mercy
Let the wind and the rain crash down over thee
Lightning bright, thunder bold
Guiding us forevermore

Soul fallen from grace, ware thee well
Judgment thou must face, thine own hell
The worm stirreth within, black as night
Breeding deeper sin, foul its blight

Soul, thine end is nigh. Take mine hand
All life must return to the land
Lingered hath the worm, overlong
Purge thy flesh of fear and be strong

Step in from the storm, praise its mercy
Let the sting of the rain ne'er stray far from thee
Lightning bright, thunder bold
Freeing us forevermore

Now lift thine heavy head and vanquish thy sorrow
Lightning doth strike
Thunder doth roll

Now turn thy gaze ahead and look to the morrow
Lightning shall strike
Thunder shall roll on



Seeing as the official lyrics have been posted I've hidden this section for now.

Enjoy!

Please help contribute (Just like before with Titan's/Leviathan's Theme)

The vocals naturally being sung by a Japanese woman makes it particularly difficult at times to make out the pronunciation of some of the words she is suing

(As the original Garuda's theme with lyrics was sung by the development team, it's possible they've done the same again here)

Here's the one we did for Titan; http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...n-Theme-Lyrics

Intro in another language (Japanese)?

[Something]
Soldier without a name, heed my call.
Sleepless take the hearts of us all.
The world must burrow deep, hand held low. (Sounds like, doesn't seem right/make sense)
(Can't understand this next line at all)

[Chorus]

Stand out/down/itno to the storm, below it's mercy
Let the wind and the rain, crash down over
Light bright
Thunderbolt/bold
Guiding us over the storm (Educated Guess, doesn't sound like it)

So our different ways, will thee rain (So a different race?)
Judgment thou must face, thine own fate.

The monster lives within, black as night
Breathing deeper sin, foulest plight (night?)


[Chorus End]


So dark is this night, take mine hand
All light must return, to the land
Maker of the world, hold us all
Purse that face/place of fear, and and be strong

[Chorus]

Stand down from the storm, shows it's mercy
Let the sting of the rain, (something) fall from thee
Light Divine
Thunderbolt
Freeing us all from the storm (Educated Guess, doesn't sound like it)

Now lift thine heavy head and resist the sorrow
Lightning Strike
Thunderbolt

Now turn thy gaze ahead and look to the morrow.
Lightning shall shall strike
Thunder shall roll/roar on

[Chorus End]

REPEAT Intro in another language (Japanese)?

I sounds to me as "Judgement thou must face, thine own fate".

I agree with most of what you've got here with the exception of the unclear since I cant fully make them out either, great work! Such a great theme.

I've added my own interpretations in purple for those I have to add/correct.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stand down to the storm, for it's mercy
Let the wind and the rain, crash down over thee
Light Divine
Thunderbolt
Guiding us over the storm (Educated Guess, doesn't sound like it) [To me, this sounds more like "Guiding the swell and the roar", not fully sure though]

So our different ways, will thee rain (So a different race?)
Judgment come and face, thine own fate. [Judgement thou must face, thine own fate]

The monster lives within, black as night
Breathing deeper sin, foulest plight (night?) [I hear "Blight"]


[Chorus End]


So dark is this night, take mine hand
All light must return, to the land
Maker of the world, hold us all
Purse that face/place of fear, and (something)

[Chorus]

Stand down from the storm, shows it's mercy
Let the sting of the rain, (something) fall from thee [Lash and fall from thee? Also not sure]
Light Divine
Thunderbolt
Freeing us all from the storm (Educated Guess, doesn't sound like it) ["Feeding/Feeling the swell and the roar" Also not confident]

Now lift thine heavy head and resist the sorrow [witness the storm]
Lightning Strike
Thunderbolt [Sunder this world]

Now turn thy gaze ahead and look to tomorrow ["the whirl"? Not sure]
Lightning shall strike
Thunder shall roll/roar on

You mostly got the lyrics I had, so pretty sure at least 50% of them are correct. xD

Boohoo, some people are having fun, must look down on them.

Really now?

I suppose you're one of those that go "Why bother doing new content, it's pointless and not worth it and groups will release videos anyway" people.

If you actually take the time to peruse what I wrote at the start I stated; "It's for a bit of fun, nothing serious".

This.

There are just people who really love the song and wanted to know what the lyrics are. Without OP's thread I'd thought this was a latin song but it was English sung by a Japanese because I couldn't really make out the lyrics at all.

Really loved this piece, SE should continue to produce more songs/BGM/OSTs like this.

You do realize that the speculation LEADS to Soken posting the lyrics right? He did this twice already with Titan and Levi's lyrics

Brave it's Mercy.(1st time)

Praise it's Mercy (2nd time)

Vanquish the Sorrow.

Also, it sounds like Lift and Fall from thee. Sting lifting.

I'm going to assume Ramuh is in there somewhere. Rah-moo

That's all I got. It's really hard to understand. Those make it sound really correct though.

The chorus is : Lightning will strike/ Thunder will roll.
Then the second part is: Lightning shall strike, Thunder shall roll.

Without actual having the song on hand to listen to, head held low makes more sense to me. Could it be that? As in, hanging your head in shame.

Really got a FFXIII-2 vibe out of this song.

I've been working on these for a couple days on the Lore forums topic, and this is what I've got so far. It's much easier to make out these lyrics than Into the Maelstrom or even Under the Weight, although the singer's accent and soft voice makes it a bit tricky. It's all in English, as far as I'm aware (we thought that Leviathan wasn't completely in English for a bit, if I remember rightly, haha), but you guys have definitely come up with better stuff than mine in points.

Thunder divine!

And look to the morrow!
Lightning shall strike!
Thunder shall..!

Spare none...

I heard this as "Step into the storm, below its mercy. Let the wind and the rain crash down over thee. Lightning bright, thunder bold."

Likewise, I got "Step in from the storm, praise its mercy. Let the sting of the rain lift strength all from thee."

Easily the best music in the game IMO. Gave me chills the first time I heard it.

I cringed internally when I heard the intro, took me a good few minutes to adjust to the song, due to how it's seperated itself from the other primal themes so far.

I love it now though! Same as Leviathans, just took a while to get used to it.

I don't hear that in the first chorus, but to me the second chorus is definitely what you've posted, yes.

I agree! Adjusted.

Apologies, but I can't actually post a file link to the song as it'll probably land me in bother, however there's bound to be a youtube link somewhere someone else has put up.

Edit: Seems someone did!

I completely agree with these, and adjusted mine to suit!

Nice find.

I didn't think to check the lore forums, I did a brush over the forums and a few attempts with the search feature which gave me nothing.

Interesting finds on yours though, sifting through it now.

To me the last part of this sounds like "and be strong"

This is pretty awesome. Thanks to everyone trying to compile the lyrics!

Adjusted! Thanks.

Hi all,
The lyrics have already been released on the blog :o!

Wow, that was super fast compared to the other ones! I guess you were right, Shio: no English in that first verse. Although I doubt any of us would have gotten it, being in High Sylphic and all, haha!

It kinda sound like that Persona RPG when I first heard it.

Thunder Rolls

Ula menida tula oh (Hoary Arbor, Lord of Light)
Tela omnida tula ei (Thine advent quelleth creeping night)
Ona ramuhda deme os (The wicked burn, their pyres bright)
Nola tulama tela ei (Smote by Levin's blinding might)
Soul without a name, heed my call
Sin doth stain the hearts of us all
The worm hath burrowed deep and hath grown
Soon he too shall reap what is sown
Step into the storm, know its mercy
Let the wind and the rain crash down over thee
Lightning bright, thunder bold
Guiding us forevermore
Soul fallen from grace, ware thee well
Judgment thou must face, thine own hell
The worm stirreth within, black as night
Breeding deeper sin, foul its blight
Soul, thine end is nigh. Take mine hand
All life must return to the land
Lingered hath the worm, overlong
Purge thy flesh of fear and be strong
Step in from the storm, praise its mercy
Let the sting of the rain ne'er stray far from thee
Lightning bright, thunder bold
Freeing us forevermore
Now lift thine heavy head and vanquish thy sorrow
Lightning doth strike
Thunder doth roll
Now turn thy gaze ahead and look to the morrow
Lightning shall strike
Thunder shall roll on

Edit, missed the post above with the link, but heres the lyrics anyway :P

Thanks! I've adjusted the OP.

I didn't expect to see the lyrics posted so soon.

Ah well!
