Once I swing the Nichirin Sword
With pride in my chest, flying the flag high
Go forward!
Between the skyscrapers
I saw the morning glow in the sky
Cityscape and scenery of Tokyo
Somewhere inside my heart
I always had a smoldering feeling
I have been looking for a place to spit it out
The flame which everyone keeps inside their heart
Keep on shouting until it’s burnt out
Then there is a silence waiting for me
Ah, even though we sometimes keep weakness inside us
We keep going on our way
We can climb up the last wall by ourselves
Look, we can change ourselves
Even that night I cry with pain alone
Made me who I am now
Try and raise my face
The birds who fly into the clear sky
Once I swing the Nichirin Sword
With pride in my chest flying the flag high
Go forward!
Between an empty space inside people’s hearts
Is where temptations lie
The reaper whispers in my ear
“The water here is sweet
Here is a world without pain“
I run like I am trying to dispel the mist
There is a haunting dark side of my heart
And a ray of hope which shines faintly
Even if most of the time it keeps raining inside the hope
The promises I made long time ago
I hold the attachment which I cannot throw away
Even with this, I am trying hard to crawl up from there
It is ok now
Even on the days I cry for missing people
The time is passing cruelly
We are weak, and we are strong
We will be reborn again
Country of the sunrise is so beautiful
Once I promise my dedication, it is for a lifetime
Go forward!
As a leopard dies leaving their beautiful fur behind, so it’s not a coincidence
Even that night I cry in pain alone
Made me who I am today
Try and raise my face
The birds who fly into the clear sky
Once I swing the Nichirin Sword
With pride in my chest, flying the flag high
Go forward!
The flame which everyone keeps inside their heart
Keep on shouting until it’s burnt out
Then there is a silence waiting for me
Ah, even though we sometimes keep weakness inside us
We keep going on our way
We can climb up the last wall by ourselves
Once I swing the Nichirin Sword
With pride in my chest, flying the flag high
Go forward!
