Nine stars align, and chaos and corruption reign;
The moon darkens the sun, and calamity befalls the world.
Swordsmen, scholars, and lords, once the shining lights of the righteous path;
Buddhist heirs, assassins, and do-gooders, all might become towering figures of the demonic path.
Nine lives turn in reincarnation, and today I awaken; nine lifetimes of love and tribulation, yet our bond is hard to sever.
I stride forth with sword in hand, and immortals and demons vanish to dust; I sing the Nine Songs softly, and even ghosts and gods cannot stand against me.
I cleanse the land of China, then look back: love comes and goes, but it was all fate, all a dream.
