【『イベリアの歴史は駆け廻る』】

Celtibero(ケルト イベロ)の眷属(けんぞく)が築いた 城壁を崩して

Carthage(カルタゴ)が踊った勝利の舞踏(ぶとう)が 大地を震わせた

Hispānia Rōma(ヒスパーニア ローマ)が荒れ地を耕して 石を敷き詰めて

Vandals(ヴァンダル)の軍が蛮勇を奮(ふる)って 荒らして廻(まわ)った

Visigoths(ヴィシゴート)が継いだ亡国の遺産の歴史と文化は

Umayyad(ウマイヤ)によって異文化と出会って花を咲かせた

Aragon=Catalonia(アラゴン＝カタルーニャ)⇔Castilla=León(カスティーリャ＝レオン)　同盟を結んで

Granada(グラナダ)←陥落(おと)せば　積年の悲願　遂(つい)に『領土再征服完了!(レコンキスタ)』

嗚呼...教会の鐘を背中で聴きながら十字架を胸に抱き兵士は進んだ

嗚呼...境界の山を軍馬で越えながら　見据えた丘の先には→『赤い城塞[الحمراء]』　アルハンブラ

父を奪ったのは十字を切る　啓典(けいてん)の民で

母を奪ったのは従事で斬る　聖典の《兄弟[أخ]》

何故...人は断ち切れないのだろう？

争いを繰り返す　負の連鎖を

弱い私は何を憎めば良い

嗚呼…やっと解った…

侵掠者(しんりゃくしゃ)に奪われし 父祖の地を取り戻せ × 侵略者が嗤(わら)わせる 血に塗(まみ)れたる仔らが

救済者を貶(おとし)める異教徒は錆となれ × 預言者は神ではない 多神教の偶像

侵略する者⇔される者←歴史は繰り返す

侵略する者⇔される者←幾度も繰り返す

「今モ兄弟同士デ殺シ合ッテイルノカ？人類諸君、我コソガ君達ノ…敵ダ！」

The Iron forces led by the bronze wolf, A very valiant Ishaq.

【黒の軍を率いるは　褐色の狼将【勇者イスハーク】】

The ivory forces led by the battle savvy Holy Knight Ramírez.

【白の軍を率いるは　歴戦の英雄【聖騎士ラミレス】】

Victory and justice. The Iberian rhapsody of a warrior's loyalty to his sword.

【勝利と正義を剣に懸けた　戦士達の『狂想詩』】

「!الشاه هو لكم ملك」

【業火、是汝ノ王デアル】

《農夫(アル・ファラーフ)―即チ兄ヨ(エルマノ マジョール)⇔《羊飼(アル・ライ)―即チ弟ヨ(エルマノ メノール)》

畏レヨ、汝、悪ノ名ヲ

畏レヨ、汝、神ノ仔ラヨ

―『聖戦のイベリア』

「悪魔が去りて後、カスティーリャを中心とした 啓典連合王国の成立はイベリアにとって長き、聖戦の休止符となり得るだろうか？

故郷を失った我らは流浪に、ただ歴史を見守り、歌い継ぐことしかできん.

願わくば、彼方より来たる軍馬の嘶きが、堅牢なる国境を…ピレネーの頂を越えぬ事を」

 The chronicles of history are as rapid as the blink of an eye

The History of Iberia runs about―】

Tear down the walls built by the Celtiberians' kin,

Carthage shook the very ground with their dance of victory...

Hispānia Rōma paved the wastelands and laid down stone,

The Vandal's army sacked and destroyed them with barbarous bravery...

Visigoths inherited the legacy of a lost country, along with its history and culture,

making contact with new cultures through Umayyad, flowers bloomed...

Aragon=Catalonia⇔Castilla=León, alliances were formed,

If Granada ← falls, our eternal wish will be fulfilled; 『Complete Reconquest! [Reconquista!]』

Ah... hearing the church bells behind them, soldiers put a cross to their chests and marched forward

Ah... beyond the mountainous boundaries, riding on warhorses beyond a hill, their gazes fixed on → 『The Red Fortress, Alhambra [الحمراء]』 Alhambra [الحمراء]...

The ones who took my father were the ones who held crosses to their chests, The People of Holy Scripture

The ones who took my mother were the ones who engaged in murder, 《Brothers [أخ]》 under Scriptures

Even now... why can't mankind put an end to

The repeating negative chain of conflict?

Who should a weak person like myself resent?

Ah... I finally understand...

(Regain the land of our forefathers, taken by those Fools [Invaders]! × These Paint [Blood]-smeared children sneer at the invaders!)

(Heretics who deny our savior should be reduced to dust! × Their prophet is no God, but merely a polytheistic idol!)

Invaders ⇔ Invaded ← History repeats itself

Invaders ⇔ Invaded ← History repeats again

"Even now, you still kill your own kind? Mankind, I am your true enemy!"

The ebony forces led by the bronze wolf, a very valiant Ishaq [إسحٰق]

【The black army led by a bronzed-wolf, a brave General Ishaq】

The ivory forces led by the battle savvy, holy knight Ramírez

【The white army led by an infamous hero of battle, a holy Knight Ramírez】

Victory and justice, the Iberian rhapsody of a warrior's loyalty to his sword

【The sword of victory and justice, a warrior's Rhapsody】

!الشاه هو لكم ملك

【The Flames of judgment, Hellfire is thy Lord!】

《Farmer [الفلاح] ―The Older Brother [Hermano Mayor] ⇔ Shepherd [الراعي] ―The Younger Brother [Hermano Menor]》

Ah... Fear the true name of evil,

Know the face of fear, ye children of God...

―『The Holy War of Iberia』

"After the Demon left... A united Christian empire was established under scripture, Castilla at its center. Would this finally mark the end of this long religious war in Iberia?

Because we've lost our homeland, the only thing we can do is merely watch over history, passing it down by singing...

We only hope that the neighing of the enemy's horses is unable to cross over the boundary of the summit of the Pyrenees mountains..."
