“Awaken Yamato”
Yamato, the spiritual name for Japan,
Having lost a war once,
It is laughable for rulers to fawn upon other nations.
Humility and servility may seem alike, but they are fundamentally different.
Even after 80 years since the war,
Japan has yet to achieve true independence.
The people of Yamato are a model nation for the world.
If you do not rise, the world will fall into disorder,
And much suffering will spread.
For Japan is the prototype of the world.
Look out across the world.
Is there any nation like Japan?
Reflect upon your own history and culture.
A country filled with wisdom to be proud of before the world.
In Yamato, many exalted spirits descended,
And strove to realize the happiness of the people.
Such is the nation in which great expectations were placed.
Cast off the false history that has been instilled,
Nurture those who can embody the spirit of Yamato,
Transform Japan and change the world.
The spirit of “Wa (harmony)” will transform the world.
What the modern world needs is harmony.
Development born from harmony is the ideal.
O Yamato, awaken!
「大和に告ぐ」
戦争に一度負けたからと
為政者が他国に媚びる姿は滑稽だ
謙虚さと卑屈さは似て非なるもの
戦後80年も経過したというのに
日本は未だに自立出来ていない
大和の民は地球の模範民族
あなた達が立たねば世界は乱れ
多くの不幸が蔓延する
日本は世界の雛形なのだから
世界を見渡してみよ
日本と同じような国があるか
自らの歴史と文化を顧みよ
世界に誇れる叡智に満ちた国
大和には多くの高級霊が降り立ち
民の幸福実現に尽力した
それだけ期待された民族なのだ
刷り込まれた偽りの歴史を払拭し
大和の心を体現できる人物を育み
日本を変え世界を変えるのだ
「和」の精神が世界を変貌させる
現代の世界に必要なのは調和
調和から発展こそが理想なのだ
大和よ 目覚めよ！
