Tokyo Gorin Ondo (1964)

Ha
The moon we gazed at in Rome that day (just like that)
Today it shines over the city (a little bit)
Let's meet again in four years
It's not just a dream, a firm promise
Yoisho korya, not a dream
Face to face at the Olympics
Just like that, face to face

Ha
The world festival awaited in the streets (just like that)
From the west, from the east (a little bit)
From the northern sky to the southern
Crossing the sea, they all came to Japan
Yoisho korya, they all came
The radiant figure of the Olympics
Just like that, radiant figure

Ha
Five colors bring joy when counted (just like that)
The fluttering flags make hearts leap (a little bit)
Though their appearances differ
Young flowers that will eventually visit
Yoisho korya, young flowers
Blossoming in the Olympic garden
Just like that, blossoming in the garden

Ha
If you start early, I will dance (just like that)
The autumn sky with the scent of chrysanthemums (a little bit)
Aligning feathers to the sound of applause
The spinning red dragonfly comes flying
Yoisho korya, red dragonfly
Today's song of the Olympics
Just like that, today's song
