Dark clouds have gathered, oh mother,
Dark clouds have gathered, oh mother,
Lightning is about to strike, oh mother!
The crashing roar of thunder
Has arrived ahead as a warning, oh mother!
Mother, oh mother, ah... ah... ah...
If the eyelid and the eye turn against each other,
Won't nature laugh in mockery?
If the eyelid and the eye turn against each other,
Won't nature laugh in mockery?
If a mother and child become enemies,
Won't the world laugh in ridicule?
If a mother and child become enemies,
Won't the world laugh in ridicule?
Let them laugh!
Let them laugh heartily!
You laugh along too!
The strong are the ones who survive.
The prosperous are the ones who laugh.
Learn to laugh in the face of death,
And all your worries will vanish.
From your bloodstream,
Cut away all affection,
And your heart will become clear.
Walking over a trail of skulls,
Many have ruled kingdoms.
Stepping over his own brother's head,
The one destined to rule this land
Is your husband! (Spoken)
When children of the same mother
Fight against each other—
Is it right for such a time to arrive?
When children of the same mother
Fight against each other—
Is it right for such a time to arrive?
Like an ant trapped on a firebrand burning at both ends,
Is it fair that I perish too?
Is it fair that I perish too?
Hmph, foolish woman!
What shouldn't have happened has already happened.
Even if you weep or plead in prayer,
Not a single letter of fate will change.
A man who didn't know how to survive—a representative
Of dry and hollow principles!
Not knowing how to join the winning side,
He allied with those struggling in defeat—
A man with no sense!
Born only to meet his death,
That ill-fated brother of mine!
May his soul find peace!
Rest in peace! (Spoken)
Like a sudden tempest
That overturns a simple country boat,
Should we become such a storm?
Like a sudden tempest
That overturns a simple country boat,
Should we become such a storm?
In the eyes of tomorrow's world, as traitors—
Should we earn that disgraceful name?
Should we earn that name...?
Hmph, what is in a name?
If a hundred people gather,
Hold a grand procession,
And sing songs of praise
Hailing someone as the greatest hero,
A traitor becomes a martyr!
The one who brought chaos
Becomes hailed as a great leader!
The one who plundered
Turns into a generous patron!
The common people are a herd of sheep.
He will declare, "I will show you how to live!"
And when they chant welcomes and cheers,
He will say, "I will do it!"
This heart has turned into stone;
No one can melt it now! (Spoken)
If the heart of God turns to stone,
Won't the Goddess stand by our side?
If the Lord is the one who gives life,
Won't He grant us refuge?
Won't He grant us refuge?
Won't He grant us refuge?
Oh Mother, oh Mother, oh Mother!
