Literature Text

Sie sind das Essen und wir sind die Jäger!

I can't recall the names of
Any of these trampled flowers.
All I see around me are these
Birds awaiting newfound windfall.

In this time of grief and crisis,
Prayers won't solve anything.
All that matters here and now
Is the will to fight and conquer.

Oh, ye who cower and scoff at us
For the will
To endure
And move on
Past the dead,
Wallow in your cages like the pigs you are
And give us the freedom of starving wolves!

The humiliation of being imprisoned
Gives us the will to arise and strike back!
We hunt down our prey beyond these walls,
And in victory, we cry out!
"Jäger!"
We are consumed with raging bloodlust,
And as we continue to burn the twilight,
We carry our crimson bows and arrows!
紅蓮の弓矢
With the recent release of "Attack on Titan" (Shingeki no Kyojin), I felt it appropriate to write a fan translation of its ever so epic opening theme, Guren no Yumiya (Crimson Bow and Arrow).
