==Lyrics==
Japanese Kanji 	Japanese Rōmaji 	English Translation
白虎隊の魂が眠る会津でおれは最強を目指す! 	Byakkotai no tamashi ga nemuru Aizu de ore wa saikyō o mezasu!	With the soul of Byakkotai sleeping in Aizu, I aim to be the strongest!
和道一文字くいなの形見
三代鬼徹呪いの妖刀
福島では使うぜ白虎の木刀
いのち揚げてこの鶴ヶ城
精神一到百折不撓
比類なきこの三刀流
信念後悔するような
事はひとつもやっちゃいねェから	Wadō Ichimonji Kuina no katami
Sandai Kitetsu noroi no yōtō
Koko de wa tsukau ze Byakko no bokutō
Inochi kakagete kono Tsuruga-jō
Seishinittō hyakusetsufutō
Hiruinaki kono Santōryū
Shinnen kōkai suru yō na
Koto wa hitotsu mo yacchainē kara	Wado Ichimonji, Kuina’s memento
Sandai Kitetsu, the cursed demon sword
I’ll use it here too in Fukushima, Byakko’s wooden sword
In Tsuruga Castle I’ll put up my life
Mental concentration, go through hundreds of battles
With this unmatched Santoryu
So I won’t regret
Every single thing that built my faith
やり場のない痛みだってあるさ
背中の傷は剣士の恥だ
刃のないKATANAだっていいさ
これで充分「畏れ」切るには
おれはもう誰にも敗けたりしねェ	Yariba no nai itami datte aru sa
Senaka no kizu wa kenshi no haji da
Yaiba no nai KATANA datte ī sa
Kore de jūbun osore kiru ni wa
Ore wa mō dare ni mo maketari shinē	It exists, pain that never heals
A wound on the back is a swordsman’s shame
Bladeless katana is all it needs
Plenty enough to cut off the "fear"
I’m not gonna lose to anyone else anymore
雪走軽やか海見て眠る
秋水黒刀硬度を誇る
打ち込み走るぜ白虎の木刀
飯盛山での想いを胸に
苦難も上等春夏秋冬
好むものなり修羅の道
礼を言いたい気分だぜ
おれはまだまだ強くなれるから	Yubashiri karoyaka umi mite nemuru
Shūsui kokutō kōdo o hokoru
Uchikomi hashiru ze Byakko no bokutō
Iimori-yama de no omoi o mune ni
Kunan mo jōtō shunkashūtō
Konomu mono nari shura no michi
Rei o ītai kibun daze
Ore wa mada mada tsuyoku nareru kara	Yubashiri, lightly sleeps watching the sea
The black sword, Shusui, boasting its hardness
Let’s run wild, Byakko’s wooden sword
At Mount Iimori, with utmost grief
Filled the chest in every season
The road of battle that grows into a liking
Let me offer my gratitude
I still can become stronger after this
火事場で出るチカラだってあるさ
言い訳したら救われんのか?
刃のないKATANAだっていいさ
仲間を守るすべて賭けて
そうさ今磐梯山の峰見て誓う	Kajiba de deru chikara datte aru sa
Ī wake shitara sukuwaren no ka
Yaiba no nai KATANA datte ī sa
Nakama o mamoru subete kakete
Sōsa ima Bandai-san no mine mite chikau	It exists, the power born from fire
Can excuses save anyone?
Bladeless katana is all it needs
I’ll risk anything to protect my friends
Yes, now looking at the peak of Mount Bandai, I pledge
やり場のない痛みだってあるさ
背中の傷は剣士の恥だ
やり場のないKATANAだっていいさ
これで充分「畏れ」切るには 
おれはもう誰にも敗けたりしねェ	Yariba no nai itami datte aru sa
Senaka no kizu wa kenshi no haji da
Yaiba no nai KATANA datte ī sa
Kore de jūbun osore kiru ni wa
Ore wa mō dare ni mo maketari shinē	It exists, pain that never heals
A wound on the back is a swordsman’s shame
Bladeless katana is all it needs
It’s enough to cut off the "fear"
I’m not gonna lose to anyone else anymore
忘れるな‼︎
俺はいずれ世界一の大剣豪になる男だ‼︎﻿ 	Wasureru na!!
Ore wa izure sekai ichi no daikengō ni naru otoko da!!	Don’t ever forget!!
Someday I’ll become the greatest swordsman in the world!!
