Here are the full lyrics for “To Sail Forbidden Seas.”
Eurus, Caecius, Thrascias, Zehyrus,
Meses, Notos, Lips, ApheliotesOceanus!
Tempest neverending
O Tartarus!
Drowning, underneath the waves!Cloud and squall and gale and hurricane.
Drown in darkness, ne’er to breathe again.Douse the sails, batten down!
See the waves, feel the wind rising!
Strike the spars, go below!
Descend!Fork-flamed fire, thunder-cloven
Mountains climb, voids for vales,
Hither, yon, tossed over and under
Cling to the key till the tides turn!Running onward, all together now!
Sweet the stormclouds from your blackened brow!
Fall to, yarely! Heigh, hearts, cheerily!
Dance, white water, and sing, skies!
Burst your wind with us!
Final Fantasy XVI is available for the PlayStation 5. A demo is out now as well. There is a six-month exclusivity period. The Final Fantasy XVI soundtrack arrives on July 19, 2023 worldwide.
