about
About the western conquest of 延平文王朱锦 (The son of Koxinga)
Lyrics partly from his poems of 《东壁楼集》
lyrics
三辰锦旗昇
High rise the sun-moon-star banner
沧海日月明
With whose pattern lit the wide sea
孤屿守丹诚
Guarding the lonely island with loyal hearts
日夕整军兵
And the troops are trained from day to night
群邪并起 元坤倾
Evils came in flocks, subverting the foundation of our nation
孤忠抗志 昭明心
The only loyal general who keeps a fighting will, has shown out his heart of brightness
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
夷虏腥尘遍九州
The savage have spread their stenchy dust over our lands
忠臣义士怀悲愁
And the righteous governors are harboring their grief towards the country
明国山河竟变色
The territory of the Ming empire is blood-painted
旧京宫阙化成丘
And all those former imperial palaces have now turned into graves
王气 正道 中土尽
There’s no royal spirits or roads of justice left on the mainland
衣发 士礼 海岛留
And all of our spiritual values and traditional etiquettes are only stored on this lonely island
<solo>
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
挥师西征驾战舟
On warships the troops are headed to go on an expedition marching westward
长歌击楫济中流
Singing the fighting song were they, when paddling through the mid-stream
胡虏妖氛一旦收
Once the evil spirits of barbarians are subdued
孤臣喜得见神州
Then I,The solitary minister,shall witness the Divined Land again with immeasurable joy
须效 中流 祖逖舟
We shall follow the warship of ZuDi in the flashy mid-stream
不复 明国 誓不休
We shall never stop resisting until the Ming empire is recovered
驱邪虏 复海州
We shall expel those evil barbarians, and recover our land and sea
元运收 雪耻仇
We shall regain the fate of nation. Wipe out the disgrace and avenge the grievance
戮力同德 克复中州
Let us all unite in a concerted effort, and recover our middle kingdom
大势横流 皇纲再正
The general situation has set, and the law of King is upright again
<solo>
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
皇明万载 日月重开
Long live the imperial Ming! The Sun-Moon Empire will return again!
<solo>
时尽天霾日难照
Though time was running out, and the heavy haze had blocked the sun away from our land
帝毅臣忠道恒昭
Our unswerving determination and doctrine of loyalty should always manifest
壮士难挥落日戈
Even the brave martyrs could not keep fighting at the time of doom
大明碧血染山河
The righteous blood of Ming dyed the mountain and rivers red

Can you have your black metal with no moronic samples, with guitars downtuned to drill holes in your very self, hypnotizing bass lines, drums that are something more than blast beats and vocals that don't need to be soaked in reverb, and on top of it fast, melodic, headbanging and catchy?
Yes.
p.s. my grandma used to say: never judge a metal album by its intro. YomaBarr
