Kitare ya kitare ya iza kitare
Mikuni o mamore ya morotomo ni
Yosekuru teki wa ōku tomo
Osoruru nakare osoruru na
Shisu tomo shirizoku koto nakare
Mikuni no tame nari kimi no tame
Isame ya isame ya mina isame
Tsurugi mo tama mo nan no sono
Mikuni o mamoru tsuwamono no
Mi wa tetsu yori mo nao katashi
Shisu tomo shirizoku koto nakare
Mikuni no tame nari kimi no tame
Mamore ya mamore ya mina mamore
Takoku no dorei to naru koto o
Osoruru mono wa chichi haha no
Funbo no kuni o yoku mamore
Shisu tomo shirizoku koto nakare
Mikuni no tame nari kimi no tame
Susume ya susume ya mina susume
Mikuni no hata o ba oshitatete
Susume ya susume mina susume
Senzo no kuni o mamori tsutsu
Shisu tomo shirizoku koto nakare
Mikuni no tame nari kimi no tame

来れや来れや いざ来れ
皇国を守れや 諸共に
寄せ来る敵は多くとも
恐るるなかれ 恐るるな
死すとも退くことなかれ
皇国の為なり 君の為
勇めや勇めや みな勇め
剣も弾丸も何のその
皇国を守る兵の
身は鉄よりもなお硬し
死すとも退くことなかれ
皇国の為なり 君の為
守れや守れや みな守れ
他国の奴隷となることを
恐るるものは父母の
墳墓の国をよく守れ
死すとも退くことなかれ
皇国の為なり 君の為
進めや進めや みな進め
皇国の旗をば押し立てて
進めや進め みな進め
先祖の国を守りつつ
死すとも退くことなかれ
皇国の為なり 君の為
