Thank God for me, unconquerable souls.

Even if I am tightly held by hell, I will not be afraid, and I will never cry out.

Hit hard by fate, my head was covered in blood, but my head was raised.

Beyond the world of anger and sorrow, there is not only the shadow of terror that rises, but also, in the face of future threats, you will find that I am fearless.
