Lyrics & meaning
Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
The song is a fiery call to war and self-reliance sung by a protagonist who finds himself surrounded by unseen dangers and hostile forces. Invoking the traditional conch shell ('Sangae') and 'Parai' drum—symbols of announcement and battle heraldry—he commands the conch to roar without stopping across the skies to announce his unyielding arrival.
