Translator's Note: In the interest of keeping the poetry of the lines faithful and the refrain intact, in the last stanza I say "the sun will someday rise" while the original says literally "the sun will someday [tear up the darkness, riding on, light shining fully]." Putting the subject after the verb in a statement isn't as easily done in English.
