MLP A New Generation 3: The Rise of Armored Hoof

by TwiShine45

Chapter 19.5

These are the words that rang forth from Quarter's lips on that wondrous night at the Maretime Bay Day Festival. The album, Luna, had already been a severe sales success. However, with the performance going down as one of the greatest concerts of all time, it caused them to skyrocket even further. The band's third album, Twilight, would be released the following day, to great critical acclaim and even more sales. The band was quickly becoming the biggest thing in Equestria, and a nationwide tour was in the works. They'd also been invited to perform at Sunny's coronation in Canterlot.

Without further ado...Luna

#1: Lunae Reginae

Equa noctis
Redeo ad eos
Vespere ritus eius sunt

Lunam adligat
In somnis tenebris
lunae reginae

Equa noctis
Redeo ad eos
Vespere ritus eius sunt

(Solo)

Lunae reginae!

#2: In Troubled Slumber

Beautiful is the hue of her gaze
Rising at the end of day

Once evil, now bathed in moonlight
Coming to them in the night

In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name

She walks the path of dreams
She walks the path of dreams

(Bridge/Solo)

Oh, Luna, protect them all
Hear them and help when they fall

In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name
In troubled slumber
They call her name

#3: The Dream Realm

It’s told that she guards the dreams of the ponies
As the nightmares don’t seem to end
It’s told that she guards the dreams of the ponies
The broken nights she starts to mend, being a friend

Guard them in sleep
Oh, princess
Thou darkest pony
Unconquerable
Take the helm
In the dream realm

It’s told she’s the sister of the daylight
But she lives in the coldest night
It’s told she’s the sister of the daylight
Evil’s corruption she’ll make right, give her the plight

Guard them in sleep
Oh, princess
Thou darkest pony
Unconquerable
Take the helm
In the dream realm

(Bridge)

It’s told she’s the royalty most nocturnal
She sees the nightmares come to life
It’s told she wages war ‘gainst dreams infernal
To help the dreamer out of strife, behold her knife

Guard them in sleep
Oh, princess
Thou darkest pony
Oh, princess…

In sleep so peaceful
In sleep so peaceful

In the dream…realm!

#4: A Moonlit Figure

She is the one who guards their dreams
She is the one who hears their pleas
She is the one with eyes blue as the night
And with a coat that shines, reflecting moonlight

She is the mare mysterious…

She is the kin of light above
The royal mare who lights the sun
She is the one who runs into the nightmares so fast
To battle them and thus she recants her past

She is the mare mysterious…

(Solo)

She is the intriguing princess
She hates the malefactor’s compliance
She works to stop all the restlessness
She fights the raze, don’t go astray

Don’t go astray…
Don’t falter to the ones that prey
She rules o’er the night, destroying spite
She sees in all their inner plight

She is the mare mysterious…
She is the mare mysterious…
She is the mare mysterious…
Committing acts most serious…

#5: Equine/Dark Princess

Equine…
Equine…

Equine…
Equine…

Taking action
The one with bluest eyes
Under the pale moon

In the shadows
Draped in royal clothes
A mare bestows the boon

(Bridge #1)

Dea non est
But through royalty
She occupies the throne

In the shadows
Draped in royal clothes
She watches skies alone

(Bridge #2)

The night is long and black and festers
Deep within
Rushing from the forest, she flies
Dream linchpin

Dark princess
Dark princess
Dreams define her
Equine
Equine
Dark princess
Dark princess
Dreams define her
Equine
Equine

(Solo)

Flying within the night, she spreads
Subtle peace
The blood she fights to keep within
Dark cerise

(Bridge #4)

Dark princess
Dark princess
Dreams define her
Equine
Equine
Dark princess
Dark princess
Dreams define her
Equine

Luna
Celestia

Since she came here, the nights of ponies have been changed
No longer do they fear their dreams with sleep obtained
They look to a mare with their great interest at heart
Now let us sing this tale and declare all we impart

Oh, Luna
Angelo Nero!
Oh, Luna
Behold the hero!
Oh, Luna
Angelo Nero!
Oh, Luna
Behold the hero!

Starlight
Moonlight
Sunlight

Twilight
Luna
Celestia

Insipid dreams will rest all shaking on their way
Because they know that all their fear she shall allay
Since all the ponies are now treating her with love
As the sky divides she shall descend from the white orb above

Oh, Luna
Angelo Nero!
Oh, Luna
Behold the hero!
Oh, Luna…!

(Solo)

She shall comfort the ponies
Make them all come to her
With her smile and patience
Invoking what they once were

The royal dream deliverer
The wondrous nighttime mare
Saving the fillies and colts from
The nightmares so severe

Oh, Luna
Angelo Nero!
Oh, Luna
Behold the hero!
Oh, Luna
Angelo Nero!
Oh, Luna
Behold the hero!

#7: Horn and Wings

The nightmare doth exist
One look from above
And she’s quick on the move
To help resist

A young pony’s dream goes
They toss and they turn
For Luna, they now yearn
To rid them of woes

Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Princess, come!

(Lead)

Her aroma is here
And as she runs in
Evil out, goodness wins
A happy pony weeps!

Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Princess, come!

Heed
Her help
Heed
Her help
Kiss…royal hooves!

(Bridge/Solo)

Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Her horn and her wings
Flashing in darkness
Her horn and her wings
Her horn and her wings
Drive away madness
Princess, come!

#8: Nightmare Night

A conference of the masses
A darkness bathed in light
May she fill their hearts and minds
As they gather tonight

A story that is told to foals
May scream dishonesty
But they can assure their friends
Of its veracity

This Nightmare Night they remember
This Nightmare Night
This Nightmare Night they remember
All her guarding ways
They offer up their thanks
And hail her with their praise

Oh, great princes
Oh, quietest one
They hail your name…

A pony’s dreams and slumber
Can be a frightening place
But there’s Luna’s love to guide
And the nightmares chase

This Nightmare Night they remember
This Nightmare Night
This Nightmare Night they remember
All her guarding ways
They offer up their thanks
And hail her with their praise

Go get all the foals
Tell them to come here
Go get all the foals
Tell them to come here

Go get all the foals
Bid them leave their fear
Go get all the foals
Both colts and fillies alike

(Solo)

This Nightmare Night they remember
This Nightmare Night
This Nightmare Night they remember
All her guarding ways
They offer up their thanks
And hail her with their praise

Go get all the foals
Tell them to come here
Go get all the foals
Tell them to come here

Go get all the foals
Bid them leave their fear
Go get all the foals
Both colts and fillies alike

#9: Mystery of Luna’s Eyes

Through nightly dreamscapes
She quenches thirst
Throughout the night she flies
To break the curse

When she arrives here
Stand in a daze
Because her eyes will strike
In heavenly ways

Mysterious as the night
Shining from the dark
Insanity is dispelled within her mark
Looking towards the future
Her love will hypnotize
Behold the mystery of Luna’s eyes

Beautiful and living
Her eyes captivating
Hue intoxicating
A sea for nightmares’ drowning

(Bridge)

Disgusting creatures
Within nightmares
Shall flee in shock and horror
From her stare

Disconcerted pony
Trapped in your sleep
Don’t fear, for soon will come
A peaceful dream

(Solo)

Mysterious as the night
Shining from the dark
Insanity is dispelled within her mark
Looking towards the future
Her love will hypnotize
Behold the mystery of Luna’s eyes
Mysterious as the night
Shining from the dark
Insanity is dispelled within her mark
Looking towards the future
Her love will hypnotize
Behold the mystery of Luna’s eyes
Mysterious as the night
Shining from the dark
Insanity is dispelled within her mark
Looking towards the future
Her love will hypnotize
Behold the mystery of Luna’s eyes

#10: Eye Above

Under a watchful eye above
Ponies rest in beds of love
No lights are here
As sleep abounds

Under a watchful eye above
Ponies rest in beds of love
No lights are here
As sleep abounds

As the ponies doze and dream
A mare enforces royalty
With her ever present eye above…

We sing-

Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin

(Bridge #1)

When it comes to the sunset’s rays
Ponies all end their work and play
No lights are here
As sleep abounds

Peaceful snoring fills the air
Welcoming the nighttime mare
And her ever present eye above…

We sing-

Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin
Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin

(Keyboard Solo End, Then Choir)

Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin
Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin
Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
For Celestia’s kin
Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound
Sleep, you ponies
A sleep so sound…
