Considering that I've owned this game for literally years without playing it on account of not owning a Vita, and now that I've bought a PSTV I probably never will, so it's reasonably time for me to bite the bullet and watch these videos too. I'm just at the end of Chapter 1, and noticed that the videos left the hymmn unsubtitled, so I decided to translate its lyrics because of course I did. It has a really cool rhythm with syllable counts that I tried to echo in English to... varying degrees of success. Anyways, here. (Also it spoils the heck out of chapter 1 obv)

I beseech thee to protect this town
Banishest the tribulation that assaulteth us
At my heart's behest, I do sing

First one hope / then one more, / then yet more
Weave them all / into song / pray grant what it asks
When I come to learn of / the fate of man, I simply
Find my heart and my soul / to be torn apart by ache

Oh high heavens full of grudge! / Oh great downpours full of blight!
The expanse of things / Sorrow-spelled: / one and all
We pray they be banished and purified!
Pray now banish and purify them
(All my power do I offer;
I beseechest thee to protect they whom I hold dear from calamity)

Bindeth our hearts, bindeth our thoughts
Oh flowers, / go skyward; / sprout up and bloom
Ever nobly, ever full-of-strength
Oh flowers / pray protect / all of those that here stand
Ever higher up, / ever farther out / verdantly blossom

Pray banish away / this maddeningly / cruel fate that we're in
For eternity / unwaveringly / blossom, flowers!

For they whom I love do I this song offer
For this land a-crumbling do I this song offer

There were dreams: / a few here, / a few there
With pure hearts / did we speak / of them in distant days
In shadows / of rubble / where a-swirling / are sandstorms
Do we seek / a vision / of all the ones / who are gone

Salvage from there / a fragment of / memory
Bring salvation / to the lives / that remain
Pray bestow unto them your aegis!

Bindeth our hearts, bindeth our thoughts
Oh flowers, / forever / sprout up and bloom
Forever, our hearts / connect here as one
Together, / cultivate / all the flowers / forevermore!

Go struggle against / ominosities / of this fleeting world
And let blossom forth / a flower garden / that shines beautif'lly
In morning mist's dew / In evening's twilight / eternally

Heavens and earth, / oh sun and moon, / pray rest; be at ease
Never enough / can we thank you / for your gifts to us
