Karthika Masam: The Festival of Lights

黎明光辉没走出迷雾 还在计较些荒诞虚无 踌躇心间缠绵都世俗 不过自演的荒诞剧幕 我远远地看见海岸灯塔 幽微光亮是自己烦恼吧 吸引人们彷徨 跌入虚幻山崖 浮萍海面 山路曲蜒 一瞬转念 何不登远 每每假想皆是镜中影 映射心底见不安梦境。 悔恨细琢心中魔 未知虚妄牵绊多 人生诗书写璀璨 别过无形破笼罗 黎明光辉没走出迷雾 还在计较些荒诞虚无 踌躇心间缠绵都世俗 不过自演的荒诞剧幕 我远远地看见海岸灯塔

Sing, ravens, of Barovia’s birth, From mist and shadow, a twilight-wrapped earth. Sing of Lugdana, the Morninglord’s flame, A beacon of dawn, a warrior’s name. Oh, sing, ravens, sing! Let the tale take flight, Of courage, of shadow, of radiant light. From Yester’s dark hill to the heavens above, A song of battle, of loss, and love. Sing, ravens, of Chernovog’s rise, The Green-God, Demon-Lord, under blood-red skies. Lugdana stood weary, her shield still high, To clash with the darkness, her vow did not die. Through shadows she ventured, through sacred ground, The clash of their fury, a tempest's sound. Her longsword flashing, her shield held fast, A hero’s resolve in each moment that passed. Sing, ravens, of Lugdana’s last cry, The Holy Symbol blazing in the sky. A light against darkness, her fate was sealed, Her wound too deep, yet her spirit revealed. Oh, sing, ravens, sing! Let the tale take flight, Of courage, of shadow, of radiant light. From Yester’s dark hill to the heavens above, A song of battle, of loss, and love. Sing, ravens, of her final grace, Of the angel descending with a black-feathered face. The Morninglord’s envoy, reclaiming the light, The Symbol now carried in eternal flight. Sing, ravens, the watchers of tales untold, Of heroes and shadows, of courage bold. Sing, ravens, of Lugdana’s might, And the battles to come in Barovia’s night.

Pallavi: Dīpālu veligēru, kārtika māsaṁ, prārthanalu pāḍēru, manasuku śāntaṁ! Śivuḍu, viṣṇuvulu, āśīrvadin̄cu, dharma mārgāna naḍipin̄cu! Caraṇaṁ: Tulasi vanamulō dīpa jyōti, gaṅga tīrālapai śiva smr̥ti. Sadguṇālu manalō nimputāṁ, kārtika māsanlō pūjalu cēyaḍaṁ!

Sing, ravens, of Barovia, birthed from the mists and bathed in twilight. Sing of Lugdana, the Morninglord’s stalwart, dawn-touched foe to the deep-lurking dark. The Holy Symbol of Ravenkind, her radiant testament, the warrior’s beacon of faithful resolve. Sing, ravens, of Chernovog’s rise, named Green-God and Demon-Lord upon Yester Hill. Lugdana, gray-haired, weary of battle, her longsword and shield yet polished and ready. Guided through shadows, toward sacred ground, she clashed with the demon, their tempest-like dance. Sing, ravens, of Lugdana’s last fury, of Ravenkind’s token now blazing with light. The battle’s tide turning, a hero’s brave cry, a final onslaught with divinity’s grace. The Demon-Lord banished, the warrior now fell, the wound at her side gouged too deep to bear. Sing, ravens, of light’s final moments, a shadow descending from radiance on high. Sing of the angel, black-feathered and beaked, the Morninglord’s angel reclaiming its gift. The Symbol retaken, in ravens’ claws held. Sing, ravens; you are the keepers, the watchers, the tellers of stories untold. Sing, ravens, of Lugdana’s memory, the shadows that lurk, and heroes to come.

[Verse] In the Rio Grande Valley so they say There was a hero in a humble way Down in Pharr from dust to dawn He helped the poor till the night was gone [Verse 2] Danny Moreno was his name they knew Kept his deeds out of the view Fed the hungry with a gentle hand The public puzzled in wonderland [Chorus] El Robin Hood del Valle he was kind Helping hearts and feeding minds Orphans blooming in his care Immigrants welcomed with a prayer [Verse 3] In Moreno's feed store tales would spin Of deeds done with a heart to win Never could they figure out the face But in whispers his legend did trace [Verse 4] For the sick he brought hope and light In the darkest hour of the night Empty hands he filled with grace Marked his path but left no trace [Chorus] El Robin Hood del Valle he was kind Helping hearts and feeding minds Orphans blooming in his care Immigrants welcomed with a prayer

(Verse 1) Bicol, a land of beauty, grace, Where Mayon's peak, a majestic face. With fertile plains and rivers wide, A region blessed, a land of pride. (Chorus) Oh, Bicol, Bicol, a land so fair, With hearts so warm, beyond compare. From Naga's charm to Sorsogon's might, Bicol shines, a radiant light. (Verse 2) Piña cloth, a woven art, A symbol of Bicol's beating heart. Sinugang na hipon, a savory delight, A taste of Bicol, pure and bright. (Chorus) Oh, Bicol, Bicol, a land so fair, With hearts so warm, beyond compare. From Naga's charm to Sorsogon's might, Bicol shines, a radiant light. (Bridge) The Bicolanos, strong and true, With spirits bright, and hearts anew. A people united, a culture so deep, In Bicol's embrace, memories we keep. (Chorus) Oh, Bicol, Bicol, a land so fair, With hearts so warm, beyond compare. From Naga's charm to Sorsogon's might, Bicol shines, a radiant light.
