Song Lyrics in FFXIV: Compilation, Discussion, and Interpretation

[Mysteltain]

They really went all in on this song. I love the callbacks to previous expansion themes--adds an air of finality to this story. Here's what I've got so far! During the last two verses, there are background vocals from both singers, but I can't make out much of anything with all of the fighting in the background.

Endwalker Theme
Heart of ember, mote in time
Cooling swiftly, reignite
Smouldering softly, biding time
Marching forward, left behind

Fire and shadows clash
Forgotten footfalls, engraved in ash
Fire will be repaid
'fore our echoes begin to fade

Fade away...

Heart of ember, mote in time
Burning brightly, all the while
Kindled softly, evil ware
Sorrow's silence will lead in prayer

Still we fall along the way...
Tales of loss, and fire, and fate...

Dys an sohm in [Our slumber disturbed]
Rohs an kyn ala na [All my brothers wake]
Mah morn-- [Death comes(?)]
Dys an sohm in [Our slumber disturbed]
Sahl djahs afah an [Vengeance will be ours]

Storm of blood
Born from blood
Of our fallen brothers

Time to stand
Oaths fulfilled
Now we go for freedom!

Born in blood (Still we forge ahead!)
Stained in red (Until tomorrow!)
Wrap of life (Still we forge ahead!)
Covers it (Until tomorrow!)
'Cause we speed (Ever forge ahead!)
Hand in hand (Until tomorrow!)
(Until tomorrow!)
Souls aligned (Ever forge ahead!)
Forge ahead (Still we forge ahead!)
Forward! (Still we forge ahead!)

Song of hope, she dances on the wind
Higher, oh higher!
E'er our vows endure
Everything's the will of the strong
Standing tall, through dark do we carry on

On wings of hope, you rise up through the night
Higher, oh higher!
Carrying the song
Raise up everything in our hearts
That it's chorus might ring for all

---

One brings shadow, one brings light
Two-toned echoes, tumbling through time
Tolling down to the end!

---

There's a stand we take
Echoes in the wake
For tonight's onset
Forge ahead!

Should we lose our way
Tire of all this pain
We won't fade away
Forge ahead!

Finish off the blight
??? dark to light
For it's not too late
Forge ahead!

As we (ride?) the (day?)
To another rite
Where it all begins
Forge ahead!
