Naneun, Yeon Feisu Imnida Reared from a turkish tribe Faced the border's Yuan army The commander who had the Silk Road Daughter of General Batolu A warrior, who had lost her mind The warzone was full of blood and loss The battlefield was full of corpse Their bodies crying for the agony to end You, a deposed Goryo monarch Spared my life from hellfire Left to breathe in shame and sorrow Left with no chance to live With dignity and honor I became your lifeless subject I picked up the sword Buried the last ounce of hope For my tribe, my home Whom you conquered A hunt for Gumihos and Tigers You threw yourself as prey To save the chased nine-tailed fox The emperor's most favored consort You dare stare at your possible death And took the blade for her sake While I took the poison arrow You dared show me your weakness I dared mend your wounded chest I tried to unlove you So I could protect you, For I'll never have your heart There will always be two martyrs: The oppressed and the oppresor The protected and the protector I wish I could rest from the battle I fought alone And find my own path I had to leave   For my life is of my tribe I left, having the concern in your eyes
