Princess, Princess,
Why do you cry?
In a forest painted by the setting sun
I made a promise to a demon boy
That when the full moon ascends in ten
I'll becaome his bride.
Princess, Princess,
Why do you laugh?
Behind a veil of bamboo blinds,
The minister explains that
He'll hide and protect me,
Just as the clouds do the moon in a hazy sky.
Princess, Princess,
Why are you scared?
In the far off reaches of the highest mountains,
I hear the cries of a demon boy,
That if women truly are as fickle as the phases of the moon,
Then surely I shall capture and devour her.
Princess, Princess,
Why do you smile?
For beneath the rainbow that shines at dawn
The treasures of the demons are hidden
Which after a 1,000 full moons passed
Promise to reunite again in a future life.
