Lyrics:
宮さん宮さん お馬の前に
ひらひらするのは 何じゃいな
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
あれは朝敵 征伐せよとの
錦の御旗じゃ 知らないか
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
一天万乗の 一天万乗の
帝王（みかど）に手向かい する奴を
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
狙い外さず 狙い外さず
どんどん撃ち出す 薩長土
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
音に聞こえし 関東武士
どっちへ逃げたと 問うたれば
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
城も気概も 城も気概も
捨てて吾妻へ 逃げたげな
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
国を追うのも 人を殺すも
誰も本気じゃ ないけれど
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
薩長土肥の 薩長土肥の
先手に手向かい する故に
トコトンヤレ トンヤレナ
Lyrics (English Translation):
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, o, tell us if you may
What's that flag that leads the way, on your horse there, all alone?
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
This is the flag that rallies forward to battle, sally!
Striking fear in every heart that stands against the throne!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Strike them down, yes, strike them down!
May the rebels all be vanquished, who have dared defy the crown!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Aim steady now, yes, aim steady now!
And be ye not afraid to destroy the rebels now!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Are they not those warriors high, those "noble, fearless" samurai
Who when they saw our forces coming, turned and ran away?
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Cheeks turning pale from fright, these "heroes" were put to flight
They fled from the castle walls as fast as they could run!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Now to the battle chasing, fearless, our foes, we're facing
Courage and devotion, lads, and to the cause stay true!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Fear not the sting of death, and fight to your final breath!
Ye warriors of the Emperor, it all depends on you!
Tokoton yare ton yarena!
Lyrics (Rōmaji):
Miya san miya san o uma no mae ni
Hirahira suru no wa nan jai na
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Are wa chōteki seibatsuseyo to no
Nishiki no mihata ja shiranai ka
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Itten banjō no itten banjō no
Mikado ni temukai suru yatsu o
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Nerai hazusazu nerai hazusazu
Dondon uchidasu satchōdo
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Oto ni kikoe shi Kantō samurai
Dotchi e nigeta to tou tareba
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Shiro mo kigai mo shiro mo kigai mo
Sutete azuma e nigetage na
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Kuni o ou no mo hito o korosu mo
Dare mo honki ja nai keredo
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
Satchō Doi no satchō Doi no
Sakite ni temukai suru yueni
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
