Symphony of the Dark Matron is an original song featuring Lily released on August 25, 2019. It is featured in the album Calling Out the Sirens.

Background

The real background of the song wasn't revealed yet when the song got released. It was only later, along with the release of the album Alien Eyes that it is revealed all the tracks for "Calling Out the Sirens" would be about Azur Lane characters, with "Symphony of the Dark Matron" representing Friedrich der Grosse, one of the most important battleships from Ironblood.

The music is described as "dark, disturbing, but also grandiose, imposing but delicate". In the game, Friedrich is a very doting "mom", treating the commander like her own child. However, her true intentions are unknown and since she is in the side of Ironblood, she represents a side of despair, hatred and fear. The song thus represents her as a worshiped powerful mother of darkness, and is organized as a "glory song" for her.

Album version

The album version extended its intro, added a flute and a pizzicato pattern to the song as well.

Lyrics

Japanese and romaji

Japanese Romaji
霧の後ろに、血の王国の女王が現れてくれ Kiri no ushiro ni, chi no ōkoku no joō ga arawarete kure
口吟むしている交響曲の音を聞かせてくれ Kōgin mushite iru kōkyōkyoku no oto o kika sete kure
絶望、憎しみ、恐怖の旋律が共鳴している Zetsubō, nikushimi, kyōfu no senritsu ga kyōmei shite iru
彼女を称える人々に勝利の願いを叶えて Kanojo o tataeru hitobito ni shōri no negai o kanaete

海に戻ってくる別の世界からの母 Umi ni modotte kuru betsu no sekai kara no haha
世界は絶対的な恐怖に震えて Sekai wa zettai tekina kyōfu ni furuete
海はコンサートの部屋であり、完璧を求めて Umi wa konsāto no heyadeari, kanpeki o motomete
偽の音符は戦場では許可されないよ Nise no onpu wa senjō de wa kyoka sarenai yo

ああ、未知の宇宙からの海の暗い女家長、耳を傾けて Ā, michi no uchū kara no umi no kurai onna kachō, mimi o katamukete ne
歴史は統治に学び、誰も暗黒の家長を決して忘れない Rekishi wa tōchi ni manabi, dare mo ankoku no kachō o kesshite wasurenai

かつて美しい物語の女王だ、今生きている Katsute utsukushī monogatari no joō da, ima ikite iru
もう夢ではない、この感覚は非現実的だけど Mō yume de wanai, kono kankaku wa higenjitsuteki dakedo
全て彼女の子供だ、彼女の要求は注文だ Subete kanojo no kodomo da, kanojo no yōkyū wa chūmon da
闇の母は失われた魂を勝利に導く Yami no haha wa ushinawa reta tamashī o shōri ni michibiku

海に戻ってくる別の世界からの母 Umi ni modotte kuru betsu no sekai kara no haha
皆が失った希望を取り戻していく Mina ga ushinatta kibō o torimodoshite iku
絶望の子守が歌い、涙を流して Zetsubō no komori ga utai, namida o nagashite
失敗と敗北はもう許されないだよ... Shippai to haiboku wa mō yurusarenai da yo...

ああ、未知の宇宙からの海の暗い女家長、耳を傾けて Ā, michi no uchū kara no umi no kurai onna kachō, mimi o katamukete ne
歴史は統治に学び、誰も暗黒の家長を決して忘れない Rekishi wa tōchi ni manabi, dare mo ankoku no kachō o kesshite wasurenai

Original English and French adaptation

English (original) French (adaptation)
Behind the mist, let the queen of a kingdom of blood appear Derrière la brume, laissez paraître la reine d'un royaume de sang
Let us hear the sound of the symphony you are humming Laissez-nous entendre le son de la symphonie que vous chantonnez
A melody of despair, hatred, fear resonates Une mélodie de désespoir, de haine, de peur résonner
Granting the wish of victory to the people honoring her Exauçant un souhait de victoire aux gens l'honorant

Mother from another world coming back to the seas Mère d'un autre monde revenant vers les océans
The world is trembling in absolute fear Le monde entier tremble de frayeur
The ocean is her concert room, she wants perfection La mer est sa salle de concert, elle cherche la perfection de tout cœur
False notes will not be allowed on the battlefield Les fausses notes ne seront pas permises sur le champ de bataille sanglant

Oh, dark matron of the seas from an unknown universe, listen to us Oh, matrone des ténèbres et des océans d'un inconnu univers, veuillez nous écouter
The history will learn about your reign, nobody will ever forget the dark matriarch L'histoire connaîtra votre règne, la sombre matriarche de personne ne sera oubliée

Once queen in a beautiful story, she is now alive Une fois reine d'une jolie histoire, elle est bien en vie désormais
This sensation feels unreal, though this is not a dream anymore Cette sensation semble irréelle, mais ce n'est plus un rêve désormais
We are all her children, her requests are orders Nous sommes tous ses enfants, ses désirs sont des ordres à ne pas discuter
The mother of the darkness will guide lost souls to the victory La mère des ténèbres guidera vers la victoire les âmes égarées

Mother from another world coming back to the seas Mère d'un autre monde revenant vers les océans
She will get back the hopes that everyone had lost Elle redonnera les espoirs que tous pensaient perdus
The lullaby of despair is singing, taking the tears away La berceuse du désespoir chante, emmenant au loin les larmes émues
Failure and defeat will not be tolerated anymore... La défaite et l'échec ne seront plus tolérés maintenant...

Oh, dark matron of the seas from an unknown universe, listen to us Oh, matrone des ténèbres et des océans d'un inconnu univers, veuillez nous écouter
The history will learn about your reign, nobody will ever forget the dark matriarch L'histoire connaîtra votre règne, la sombre matriarche de personne ne sera oubliée

Trivia

  • The song was released for Lily's birthday.
  • The challenge of this song was to integrate classical instruments in a more industrial piece. This was done including flutes, string instruments such as harps, violins, pizzicati and a piano.
