[Chorus] What have you done? Why have you done this to your people? Shadow all Equestria
So full of jealousy and hate Bringing darkness, in all your wake Over our streams, over our streets, Over our homes, over our land! Upon our orchards, on our trees Assuring death to all our fields, Poison our dreams, and haunt our sleep Until you break, until you yield Down with your storm, your wicked form Step off your throne
[Celestia] Once I called you sister Once I thought you loved All that we had Why did you hide your anger?
[Chorus] You send your thunder from the sky You send your fire raining down
[Celestia] And even now, I wish judgment Fell to another Because this final sentence I must pass Is the last thing that I wanted...
[Chorus] Trap us in an eternal night O'er every field, o'er every town
[Celestia] This is our home! As you torture our great nation No, I cannot stand aside None of them deserve to suffer For your jealousy and pride!
[Chorus] Harmony lock away your sin Banish your eyes from all our dreams Strip all your power on the moon And send you far away unseen May the sun scorch, your blackened soul, Step off your throne!
[Celestia] You who I called sister Why retaliation, you incite?
[Chorus] May the sun scorch, your blackened soul,
[Celestia] End this endless night
[Celestia and Chorus] Step off your throne
[Nightmare Moon] You who I called sister Why did you steal the people for your own? And make them hate my darkness?
[Chorus] Down with your storm, your wicked form...
[Nightmare Moon] You're why my heart is hardened From here and on the moon is all they'll know No more sun in sight, I will never end my endless night...
[Celestia & Chorus] Step off your throne.
[Nightmare Moon] I will not...
[Celestia, Nightmare Moon, and Chorus] End my (this) endless night!
