Katte kuru zo to isamashiku
Chika tte furusato o detakara wa
Tegara tatezu ni shina ryō ka
Shingun rappa kiku tabi ni
Mabuta ni ukabu hata no nami

Tsuchi mo kusaki mo hi to moeru
Hatenaki kōya fumi wakete
Susumu hinomaru tetsukabuto
Uma no tategami nadenagara
Ashita no inochi o dare ga shiru

Dangan mo tanku mo jūken mo
Shibashi roei no kusa makura
Yume ni detekita chichiue ni
Shinde kaere to hagemasa re
Samete niramu wa teki no sora

Omoeba kyō no sentō ni
Shu ni somatte nikkori to
Emi tte shinda sen'yū ga
Ten'nōheika banzai to
Nokoshita koe ga wasureru yoka

Sen suru mi wa kanetekara
Suteru kakugo de iru mono o
Naite kureru na kusa no mushi
Tōyō heiwa no tamenaraba
Nan no inochi ga oshikaro ka
