Lyrics
Latin
Cum historia mutat valde
Razgriz revelat ipsum:
Primum daemon scelestus est.
Cum potentia sua
Daemon fundet mortem in terram:
Deinde moritur.
Cum somnus finit,
Razgriz surget iterum:
Magnus heros est.
English
When history witnesses a great change Razgriz reveals itself-first,
as a dark demon.
As a demon, it uses its power to rain death upon the land, and then it dies.
However, after a period of slumber,
Razgriz returns-
This time, as a great hero.
