Song Lyrics in FFXIV: Compilation, Discussion, and Interpretation

[zuzu-bq]

Heavensward is divided in three parts. Scions, Ishgard and Dragons.

[Remedi]

well we didn't hear a doman anthem either probably they didn't want to throw the spotlight off ala mhigo too much

I wouldn't have minded. Never cared much for Ala Mhigo.

I wouldn't have minded. Never cared much for Ala Mhigo.

Whether or not I take an issue with Ala Mhigo depends entirely on what we get in the future. I'll be very disappointed if we only ever get three zones out of Othard or a similarly large region after Gyr Abania ended up getting three zones in total.

My issue with Ala Mhigo is more about 90% of Ala Mhigans being angry hobos and trouble makers. I can count the decent Ala Mhigans on one hand. And that's counting the likes of Minfilia the useless load and Widalgert who tried to kill us once. The last time they had self governance they necessitated the formation of the Eorzean Alliance. Sure, mad king and all that jazz. But seriously. A bunch of angry jerks living in a barren wasteland. Hoooow interesting.

A whole continent filled with dragon people, ninjas, samurai, thousand year old shape shifting foxed, intrigue and legends totally idependant of what we have in Eorzea? Let's turn it into a sideplot we only deal with to help the angry jerks.

[Theodric]

That's a fair assessment. You're definitely not alone in that line of thinking!

I am trying to find lyrics for the 2nd phase theme of Shinryu "Worm's Tail", but to this day I can't find any besides the basic Stormblood chorus.

Are there any lyrics yet about it?

[zuzu-bq]

There aren't. I hope it's not the same case as Ultima again.

Chances are it's more faux latin outside of the Stormblood bit.

Apologies for not doing any updates the last few...months, I think? I've been on a bit of a hiatus from the game and forums beyond the odd post here and there. But I've gone and updated the main post with some new formatting to separate the 1.0/2.0 songs from the 3.0 and 4.0 songs, as well as made a separate section for any songs with lyrics outside of the game, such as the Eorzean Symphony (thanks for those, Annana!). There were a few other minor changes I made to some titles and lyrics that we've received since my last update.

Beyond that, looks like Byakko's 2nd phase has lyrics of some kind? They previewed the song during the most recent Live Letter (XLI) during the mid-letter intermission, and after listening to it a bit more, I can't make out much beyond possibly them repeating the word "Kaze" at the end, so perhaps we have our first song with Japanese lyrics?
