"Yamato Damashii (大和魂)"

[Romanized:]

Yamato kokoro kizanda tatakau Kan tamashī
Yamato make wa shinai shashin kakugo no tamashī

Kaeranu hito o machiwabite
Kai tte ite mo yueni sarabatomoyo

Gekidō jidai ni uma reta sore mo kore mo sadame ka
Gekidō jidai o ikinuke mō mamotte ite mo kachime nai
Tatakau jidai yattekita ore mo kimi mo kimi mo
Tatakau jidai mamorinuke mō mamotte itara Amerika mo nai
Kōsan shinai kōsan shinai ga wa

Yamato nihonjin no kiyoku tadashī tamashī
Daiwa kataritsuga re yomigaeru tamashī

Katamichi dake no nenryō tsunde
O kuni no tame ni isagiyoku takaku chitte

Gekidō jidai ga yattekita totsuzen totsuzen yattekita
Gekidō jidai o ikinuke mienaiteki o yattsukero
Tatakau jidai ga yattekita masaka jibun no jidai ni
Tatakau jidai yattekita mō matte itara mizu mo nai
Shinjitsuna nda shinjitsuna nda itsuwari janai

Tondehiniirunatsunomushi obikiyose rare
Tsutsunuke sono sakusen wa omoutsubo

Nidoto kurikaesanai eien ni chikai
Utsukushī shima o mamoru yo subete tsuranuku yamatodamashī todoke

Nidoto furimukanai maehesusume
Itoshī shima yo umi mo subete tsuranuku yamatodamashī kakage

[Japanese:]

大和 心刻んだ闘う漢魂
大和 負けはしない捨身覚悟の魂

帰らぬ人を待ちわびて
解っていても故に さらば友よ

激動時代に生まれた それもこれも定めか
激動時代を生き抜け もう守っていても勝ち目ない
闘う時代やってきた 俺も君も君も
闘う時代守り抜け もう守っていたら米もない
降参しない 降参しない我は

大和 日本人の清く正しい魂
大和 語り継がれ蘇る魂

片道だけの燃料積んで
お国のために潔く 高く散って

激動時代がやってきた 突然突然やってきた
激動時代を生き抜け 見えない敵をやっつけろ
闘う時代がやってきた まさか自分の時代に
闘う時代やってきた もう待っていたら水もない
真実なんだ真実なんだ 偽りじゃない

飛んで火に入る夏の虫 誘き寄せられ
筒抜けその作戦は 思う壺

二度と繰り返さない 永遠に誓い
美しい島を守るよ全て 貫く大和魂届け

二度と振り向かない 前へ進め
愛しい島よ海も全て 貫く大和魂掲げ
