Lyrics
[Intro]
In the gray city where the rain never stops
A boy named Bo stares at the empty sky
No mother’s arms, no father’s voice
Just a whisper in the dark: “Who am I?”
[Verse 1]
An old man offers an apple of gold
One bite and the world unfolds
A spirit released from a bottle of glass
Escaping the world of the shadows and gas
The streets dissolve, the ocean calls
Suddenly he’s Mio – prince of it all
Miramis rears beneath the stars
Jum-Jum laughs, the journey starts
From the cold stone world to the rose-lit land
The orphan boy becomes the king’s own hand
[Chorus]
Mio, my Mio! The wind is singing your name!
Across the endless sea, through fire and flame
The roses bloom where Kato’s shadow dies
Father and son beneath the same skies
Mio, my Mio! The sword is in your hand
The Land Faraway is your promised land!
[Verse 2]
The Whispering Well tells a story of old
Of a hunger that bites and a winter so cold
They eat the bread that can satisfy all
While the scouts of the night begin their crawl
The Bridge of Morning, the Cave of the Deep
Secrets the King of the Shadow will keep
But Miramis gallops through thunder and light
The boy and his brother are ready to fight!
[Verse 3]
Into the Land of the Outside we ride
Where the sun and the hope have both gone to hide
The Dead Forest whispers with Kato’s breath
Little children turned birds, crying for death
The black iron claws and the heart made of stone
Sir Kato is waiting, cold and alone!
Seize them! Bind them! Throw them away!
The iron-shod world has no place for the day!
[Verse 4]
"The smith in the cave forged a blade for the hand
Of a child who would save this broken land."
"Not a sword for a king, nor a sword for a knight,
But a blade that can cut through the heart of the night."
One strike to the chest, where the granite is cold
The story of evil is finally told!
No more a bird, no more a slave
The children are rising from Kato’s grave!
[Bridge]
When the last rose withers and the darkness screams
When the heart of stone tries to steal your dreams
One strike, one cry, one father’s pride
The evil shatters – the light survives!
[Finale]
Mio, my Mio! The battle is won
The roses are blooming, the new day has come
No longer alone on the faraway shore
You found your name… you are home forevermore!
HOME! FOREVER! MIO!
[Outro]
Mio… my Mio…
