The Giant Demon God
Composed by Akira Ifukube
Heard in King Kong vs. Godzilla,
Space Amoeba,
Godzilla vs. Destoroyah,
Godzilla Island

"The Giant Demon God" (巨大なる魔神,   Kyodainaru Majin) is the main theme of the 1962 Toho film King Kong vs. Godzilla. It is a song the natives of Faro Island sing to appease their god King Kong, and is performed with lyrics three times in the film. An instrumental version of the theme is used to underscore Kong in many scenes. Composer Akira Ifukube used this song again as the prayer of the Sergio Islanders in Space Amoeba, though the lyrics were changed. "The Giant Demon God" is included in instrumental form in the end credits suite for Godzilla vs. Destoroyah, and is also part of "The Theme of GODZILLA" in the television show Godzilla Island, with the original lyrics included.

Lyrics

A si anaroi aseke samoai
A si anaroi aseke samoai
Ke keletena, ke keletena
I na mang fanadoro sagutia
I na mang fanadoro sagutia
Ke keletena, ke keletena
Sikuna fanadoro onasau nunafa
Sikuna fanadoro onasau nunafa
A si anaroi aseke samoai
A si anaroi aseke samoai
(A si anaroi oseke sonafa)
Ma gu nu nitu, ma gu nu nitu
Sikuna marikan, sikuna marikan
Ma gu nu nitu, ma gu nu nitu
Rau, rau, rauuuu
