The final line only plays on the soundtrack, never in game, as the in-game music loops over the penultimate line.
English lyrics[edit]
Our eternal land is keeping us in warm embrace
Some must carry on God's will, oh
And some must face the dark, it's in father's wishes we live
Let us come together, we must never give up
Let those people see, guide the ones who cannot hear
Voices guide us through, words from above, we are the chosen ones
We are softly in those wings safely held up high
As we sleep in silence feel no fear, I know he'll stand by (I just know it)
Guardian angels, they too will keep us safe
Our path we chose is cold and the dark has no place to dream
Must we go on? Will we ever prevail and smile in peace?
Our eternal land is keeping us in warm embrace
We're the chosen ones from up above the holy sky
Original lyrics[edit]
悠久なる大地に抱かれ眠る
神に選ばれし使徒たちよ
無辜なる民を従えよ
盲なる者にその目を開かせ
聾なる者に言葉を届けよ
其は選ばれし者の使命なり
父なる神からの神命なり
大いなる翼に抱かれ眠る
神に選ばれし使徒たちよ
この翼に留まるは神の御心
彼の地に心の安寧はなく
また未来への希望もない
其は選ばれし者への特権
大いなる神からの賜物なり

Original text
アーケディア法王庁は厳かな雰囲気の景観で、そこに住んでいる人々も礼拝が欠かせなかったりと全体的に宗教色が強い街です。通常であれば聖歌やミサ曲風にするところだと思いますが、中心部以外は難民街となっており、下町と上層階とでは街の雰囲気が全く違います。そのため、新たなアプローチのコーラス曲が必要だと思いANÚNA (アヌーナ)に歌ってもらうことにしました。厳かさを保ちつつ大衆的な音楽を目指してみました。

The Indoline Praetorium is an austere place, its residents diligent in their worship, the whole area exuding a strong feeling of piety. I would usually try to make something like a hymn or church service for a place like this, but there are a lot of refugees living outside of the central sanctum, making for a different atmosphere compared to the town and the upper levels. I asked ANÚNA to help me with a new approach to a choral piece. I tried to capture the solemnity of the town while making something with more mass appeal.
