Lyrics & Translation

[English]

古人夜观星象 The ancient Chinese gazed at the night sky

见北极五星，状若宫阙 and saw a palace in the celestial realm of Heaven.

北辰居天之中，群星拱卫 High above all else, enclosed by the stars,

其名, they called it...

紫微 "North Star," Zi Wei.

明代帝王 And the Ming Dynasty ruler,

取法天象，仿紫微之制 inspired by the stars above,

起殿宇皇城 built a palace in the heavenly image.

后称, They called it...

紫禁 "Zi Jin."

在古代，龙座之上 In the past, on the Dragon Throne,

受命于天 the Emperor ruled through the Mandate of Heaven.

到如今：星辰其间，永恒铸传奇 A legacy sealed within the starlight.

十五载，只寰宇一瞬 Fifteen years, merely an instant to the cosmos.

于竞者，却毕生所系 But to these competitors, it’s everything.

星汉灿烂，争者若出其里 They look up at the glory in the stars,

此刻争流，誓与传奇同熠 searching for a way to join them.

[TES Jackeylove] When I look back at the fifteen years of Worlds,

so many moments come to mind.

[CaptainFlowers] The LPL has never won before, but that will change today.

He’s still alive! He’s still surviving!

We're the champions!

[Medic] What's a god to five nonbelievers!

[TES Jackeylove] What left the deepest impression on me was

our third game against KT.

[CaptainFlowers] It's a base race!

[TES Jackeylove] I'll never forget about that.

[CaptainFlowers] The crownless are finally king!

[HLE Peanut] It feels strange to think it's my last Worlds.

[Krepo] The arrow, look at the arrow!

They can teleport!

He stopped him!

Nice!

ROX Tigers! Answer back!

[HLE Peanut] I'd like to end my last Worlds lifting up the trophy.

We have just witnessed the most incredible

story in history.

[Phreak] Fnatic are going to win the Season One Championship!

[FNC Mikyx] When I think about EU at Worlds, I always feel like

there is the potential to do something great.

[Quickshot] Gods can bleed.

Where were you when the West rose up?

[PSG Karsa] I know people underestimate us, but we will shatter your impressions.

[Quickshot] The underdogs reign supreme!

[Drakos] Paranoia, five minutes into the game?!?

[Quickshot] Brazil score the biggest goal!

[Phreak] Cloud9 in the Top 4!

[FLY Massu] Watching all these legendary players

I knew I wanted to become one of them.

[CaptainFlowers] Massu cuts them down,

FlyQuest push Gen.G to the absolute limit!

[FLY Massu] But I don’t want to ever let the expectations of our past,

disrupt us from building our future.

[HLE Zeus] It's my first Worlds in this new team, so I'm even more excited.

I will write a new history.

我们仰望的星光 Those starlights we gaze at,

来自遥远的过去 are from the past,

而我们的传奇 but our legacies

正在此刻铸就 are being forged right now.

[MKOI Elyoya] Last Worlds, I don't think we came ready,

but this time around, something's gonna change.

[VKS Disamis] There's no one more passionate than we are.

It's time for the world to hear the warriors.

[AL Tarzan] It's our time to shine.

AL is ready. Are you ready?

[100T Dhokla] At Worlds, that's where the adrenaline is,

that's where the excitement is,

that's truly where you get to Earn Your Legacy.

[Drakos] BLG knocking down the last of the LEC.

[G2 Caps] Last Worlds was definitely quite tough for us.

[Vedius] Just like that, the last hope of Europe is eliminated.

[G2 Caps] We were so close,

but we failed to make it out of Swiss.

I want to bring Europe back to Finals,

back... to where we belong.

[KT Bdd] Since we’ve realized how strong we can be,

[KT Bdd] The other teams should be nervous.

[KT Bdd] I’ll show you a performance with no regrets.

[CFO Doggo] I'm really happy to be back in Beijing,

competing at a place I've played before.

This time, we're going to make everyone see us in a whole new light.

[TSW Hiro02] In 2017, GAM made a strong impression on the world stage.

This year, it's our turn to do even better than GAM did back then.

[GEN Ruler] It's been such a long time since I won Worlds 2017.

Of course, I still remember the good memories and emotions from that time,

but I’ve also forgotten so much.

That’s why I really want to relive and bring back those memories.

So I need to win Worlds.

Once more, we will bring down...

T1’s dynasty.

最高的山 The highest mountain,

最长的河 and the longest river,

LPL的宿敌 the eternal enemy of the LPL,

不死的魔王 the Unkillable Demon King.

FAKER

沧海无垠，岁月为证 Time has proven that the sea is boundless,

峰临绝顶 and at the summit of the highest mountain

仍有苍穹 above, still, is the sky.

[T1 Faker] We are inevitable.

[T1 Faker] We are inevitable.

但使心如砥柱，定将凌云攀霄  But with a firm heart, one will rise above the sky.

志坚必可为 Nothing is impossible.

[BLG Bin] T1,

our revenge is destined.
