Lyric

Ballad of the Army Carts: Requiem of Mud and Bone (feat. YICHEN)

Twilight Master, SHIONO

鈍く響く轍の音　馬はいななき　土埃が舞う

咸陽橋（かんようきょう）は霞み　愛する者の顔さえ見えない

引き止め　縋り　地を叩く慟哭　天を突き抜けて響く

15歳で北の河へ　40歳で西の田へ

村長に巻いてもらった若き頭巾は　帰る頃には白髪に染まる

「武皇」の野望は果てなく　国境の地は血の海と化す

(漢家山)東　200の州　実りの畑は茨（いばら）に飲み込まれた

戦場は血の海　それでも君王の意は止まらない

信じよう　男を産むのは不幸だと　女こそが幸せだと

命は雑草の下に埋もれ　歴史の塵に消えてゆく

李白よ　あなたは天の月を見上げ　酒を酌み交わす

私はこの地の泥を啜り　名もなき者の涙を書き留める

「人を驚かせねば死ぬまで筆を置かぬ」

この震える指で　真実を刻むジャーナリストとして

青海湖（せいかいこ）のほとり　拾う者なき白骨の山

雨の降る湿った夜　新しい鬼（おに）と古い幽霊が啜り泣く

啾々（しゅうしゅう）と響くその声は　私の胸を抉り続ける

未だ休まぬ戦の火　誰のための重税か

辺庭流血成海水！武皇開辺意未已！

君不見青海頭　古来白骨無人収！

この慟哭を歌に変えろ　この泥を詩の聖なる光に変えろ

国破れて山河あり　城春にして草木深し……

私は書き続ける　この地を這う者たちの記憶を。

This epic orchestral track transforms Du Fu's masterpiece, "Ballad of the Army Carts" (Bingche Xing), into a dark, cinematic auditory experience. While the Tang Dynasty was at its peak, Du Fu aimed his pen at the endless wars and the suffering of the common people. Featuring heart-wrenching Erhu solos, thundering war drums, and gravelly, passionate vocals, this song captures the tragedy of a blood-soaked border and the unyielding spirit of a poet who refused to stay silent.

Listen to the cries of history. Step into the shoes of the Earthbound Journalist and feel the colossal weight of 1,300-year-old words, reimagined through a modern epic soundtrack.
