Whose sin is this?
Why this tragic state?
It goes searching for the womb,
Oh divine light of grace!
Bearing all the pain, it moves along.
In search of a reason,
the journey moves forward,
Aching and yearning in sorrow,
Oh guardian deity!
It walks down a one-way path.
No more of these people, Lord,
No more of these illusions, Lord,
Free from all selfishness,
lift her to the heights, Father.
To return to the home where it began,
love journeys on.
Whose sin is this?
Why this tragic state?
It goes searching for the womb,
Oh guardian deity!
Rising above all pain, it moves on.
Nothing compares to a father,
and you have come to understand that.
Today, a beast's sacred wedding thread
has snapped from her neck.
Taking all the blows,
learning lessons through pain,
a heart has attained wisdom.
Here is the divine light of grace,
the justice that never fades!
The one who sowed evil deeds
must reap the consequences.
There is a world brimming with kindness,
go there, my precious child!
The deed is done,
the reason is understood,
all the turmoil has settled.
Upon whose lap
has the whole world become a child?
