Battotai March

I am the government army, my enemy
An enemy who does not accept heaven and earth
The enemy's general
Is an unparalleled hero of the past and present

The soldiers who follow him
Are brave and determined warriors
Even those who do not fear gods and demons
Will not be forgiven for treason against heaven

Those who rise up
Are not examples of past glory
Until the enemy is defeated
Advance, advance together

With drawn swords in hand
We must advance with the resolve to die

The spirit that protects
The wind of the imperial country and the warriors
The Japanese sword, once abandoned
Now is the time to revive

The honor of those who go out into the world again
Both enemies and allies
Should be prepared to die under the blade
For those with the spirit of Yamato

The time to die is now
Do not bring shame by falling behind
Until the enemy is defeated
Advance, advance together

With drawn swords in hand
We must advance with the resolve to die
