Words of Paiwan battle song:
活該!為什麼要戰爭?
戰爭來時,
你連食物隨手抓了就吃,
活該!為什麼要有戰爭?
活該!你為什麼去砍別人的頭?
活該,別人也會來砍你的頭。
人應該和平相處,
為什麼要彼此殺戮?
戰爭過了,
頭目去世了!
身為配刀戰士,
我一定是第一個到靈堂哀悼!
This Paiwan battle song, singed thousands of years , is the song which
the Paiwan soldiers sing before fighting.the meaning is deep.
The song’s meaning is:
It serves you right!
Why do you want to fight?
When the war comes, you grasp food slovenly.
It serves you right!
Why do you want to fight?
It serves you right!
Why do you chop others' head?
Gets what one deserves,
theothers can also chop your head.
The person should get along with peacefully,
why massacre each other ?
The fighting finished, the chieftain has died!
As a Paiwan soldier, I am the first one to go to the mourning.
