[Verse 1]
イギリスが売り付けるアヘン
中国の健康と富を蝕む
清朝の官僚 林則徐は
アヘンを没収し焼き捨てた
[Pre-Chorus]
これを理由にイギリスは開戦
「アヘン戦争」の始まり
蒸気船と大砲の力で
清は簡単に敗れてしまう
[Chorus]
南京条約 屈辱の内容
香港を割譲し 上海などを開港
関税自主権もなくなり
中華の誇りは傷ついた
[Verse 2]
戦争の敗北と重い賠償金
民衆の不満は爆発する
洪秀全が唱えた「太平天国」
清を倒せと立ち上がった
[Bridge]
アロー戦争でさらに開国
北京条約で中心部まで
列強の侵略が深まる中
洋務運動が始まるけれど…
[Outro]
眠れる獅子が
目を覚ました時には
すでに遅かった
日本との戦い
