Are you looking for the story titled Tale of Abandonment on a Moonlit Night?
"Come, let’s go meet our real mother and father."
―Hänsel and Gretel[src]


Tale of Abandonment on a Moonlit Night is a song released by Akuno-P released on October 6, 2008. It is the tenth song in the Original Sin Story and a sequel to Moonlit Bear.

Plot

A young boy and girl follow their parents through the woods, making several inquiries on their ultimate destination. After walking some ways, they notice that they will become lost if they continue. Left by their family, "Hänsel" and "Gretel" soon realize they've been abandoned. Choosing to wander through the forest for some time, the twins fill their glass bottle with moonlight to illuminate the path, though they are not certain that it is the right one. Finally, they reach a house that they've seen before, a "witch's house". They shove the "evil witch" into an oven, and the two ask for praise from their parents for killing the evil witch and her "evil henchman". At the song's end, they decide this is a good place to settle, as it reminds them of their home; they later they resolve to go find their "real mother and father".

Lyrics

母さん
この道はどんな幸せに続いているの?
そこでは
大好きなおやつをたくさん食べられるのかな?

父さん
この先に神様は待っているのですか?
どうして
そんな悲しい顔で僕らを見るのですか?

暗い森の中
本当は全てわかっていた
このまま進めば
もう帰ることはできないと

ふたりぼっち残された僕ら
その名はヘンゼルとグレーテル
お月様のわずかな光では
帰る道もわからない

僕らは歩く さ迷い歩く
手掛かりがないわけじゃない
ガラスの小瓶 月に照らされ
ぴかぴかひかり 道を照らす
されどもそれが 正しい道か
僕らは知らず ただただ歩く
やっと見つけた 僕らにはわかる
ここは魔女の家

さあ 悪い魔女をやっつけろ
燃えるかまどに放り投げろ
彼女がいなけりゃ僕らはきっと
幸せになれるはず

ねえ母さん 私をほめて
悪い魔女は倒したのよ

ねえ父さん 僕をほめて
魔女の子分も倒したんだ

それにしても
ここはとても落ち着く所だね
まるで昔から
住んでいたような気がするね

さあ「本当の」母さんと父さんに会いに行こう

Mother,
What kind of fortune does this path lead to?
Over there,
Will we be able to eat lots of our favorite snacks?

Father,
Beyond this point is God waiting for us?
Why
Do you look at us with such sad faces?

Inside the dark forest
We understood the whole truth
That if we continue in this way
We’ll soon be unable to return

The two of us left all alone
Our names are Hänsel and Gretel
By the small light of the great moon, we don’t know the way home

We walk, a wandering walk
It doesn’t mean we don’t have a clue
A small glass bottle is lit up by the moon
The sparkling light illuminates the way
Nevertheless, we’ll walk
Without knowing whether this is the correct path
Finally we found it, and we understand
This is the witch’s house

Come, let’s attack the evil witch, cast her in the burning stove
When she’s gone, surely we can become happy

Hey mother, praise me
I defeated the evil witch

Hey father, praise me
I defeated the witch’s henchman too

At any rate
This is a really calming place, huh?
It feels as if though long ago,
We used to live here, doesn’t it?

Come, let’s go meet our real mother and father.

Trivia

Conceptualization and Origin

  • The song is based on the Brothers Grimm tale "Hänsel & Gretel".
  • Initially, mothy planned for an entirely different song while producing it, wanting to name it "Zoo Detention".[1]
  • Like Moonlit Bear, Full Moon Laboratory, and Escape of Salmhofer the Witch, the story takes place on a moonlit night; the moon is often associated with madness and is the origin of the word "lunacy".
  • The song's English title, "Insane moonlight", also alludes to the moon and its association with insanity.

Curiosities

  • A short story elaborating on the events in the song is included in Waltz of Evil: The Deadly Sins of Evil Guidebook.
  • The glass bottle present in the song seems to be the same one seen in Moonlit Bear; a similar glass bottle appears in Regret Message.
  • Their uncertainty on whether or not they travel along the "right path" parallels Moonlit Bear, where Eve describes that the "right path" had already been lost; both songs also share the same melody during that part, although at a different pace.
  • The song's opening melody is heard at the end of Moonlit Bear. 
  • The song's original lyrics were slightly changed by mothy for its release in the Original Sin Story: Complete Edition album.
