Destati

Destati is a music track in Kingdom Hearts. It was used as the piece of music when introducing Kingdom Hearts to the gaming world for the very first time. In latin, Destati means "Awaken", which goes with the theme of the conflict of light over darkness. Bits were reused in "Dive into the Heart" during the tutorial in both Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. The tension part of this music was reused with changed lyrics for "Gardando Nel Buio" in the final boss battle against "Ansem" in the first game.

'''Original / latin Lyrics English Translation'''

Destati! Tendi la mano E'giunta l'ora, destati Le porte verranno schiuse

''You awake! Tighten your hand It is time: you raise The door will be closed, open it again '' -

Su rimembra tu trepida Su sveglia! Ehi ricorda

''Remember the emotion Then you awake! And you recall''

Destati, Destati Forza, tendi la mano Destati, Destati, E'giunta l'ora

''You awake, You awake Tighten your hand You awake, You awake It is time''

--

E ancora una volta Apriranno le porte

''Once again Open the door '' --

Su rimembra tu trepida Su sveglia! Ehi ricorda

''Remember the emotion Then you awake! And you recall '' --

Eh? Come? Non lo vuoi? Tuttavia t'appartiene Cio che hai perduto Diventera uno!

''Huh? What? You do not want it? That still belongs to you All that you lost Will do nothing anymore but one! ''
