Senbonzakura (Short Ver)

Original / Romaji Lyrics English Translation
daitan-futeki ni HAIKARA kakumei 
rairai-rakuraku hansen kokka 
hinomaru-jirushi no nirinsha korogashi 
akuryou-taisan  AI-SHII-BII-EMU

After a bold and audacious Westernization revolution, 
this is now an open and upright anti-war nation. 
As I pedal forward my bicycle marked with the Japanese flag, 
evil spirits will disperse from my intercontinental ballistic missiles.

kanjousen o hashirinukete  touhon-seisou nan no sono 
shounen shoujo sengoku-musou  ukiyo no manima ni

Looping the belt line, I don't care if I'm constantly on the move. 
Boys and girls must be unrivaled during the warring era, in the floating world.

SENBONZAKURA  YORU NI MAGIRE  KIMI NO KOE MO TODOKANAI YO 
koko wa utage  hagane no ori  sono dantoudai de [bad word] 
Thousands of cherry trees dissolve into the night. Not even your voice will reach. 
This is a banquet inside a steel jail cell. Look down on us from your guillotine.

SANZEN-SEKAI  TOKOYO NO YAMI  NAGEKU UTA MO KIKOENAI YO 
seiran no sora  haruka kanata  sono kousenjuu de uchinuite

The whole world is shrouded in hellish darkness. Not even a lamenting song is audible. 
With your raygun, shoot out the azure sky and the far distance.

hyakusen-renma no mitame wa shoukou 
ittari-kitari no oiran douchuu 
AITSU mo KOITSU mo minna de atsumare 
seija no koushin  wan  tsuu  san  shi

Hundreds of fights will give one the apperance of an officer. 
The courtesans are going here and there on a parade for their regular guests. 
Everyone, assemble here now. 
It's a march of the saints. One! Two! Three! Four!

zenjoumon o kugurinukete  anraku-joudo yakubarai 
kitto saigo wa daidan'en  hakushu no aima ni

To pass through the gate to dhyāna[1], and achieve nirvana with cleansing, 
the closing act must be a happy finale, accompanied by applause from the audience.

SENBONZAKURA  YORU NI MAGIRE  KIMI NO KOE MO TODOKANAI YO 
koko wa utage  hagane no ori  sono dantoudai de [bad word] 
Thousands of cherry trees dissolve into the night. Not even your voice will reach. 
This is a banquet inside a steel jail cell. Look down on us from your guillotine.

SANZEN-SEKAI  TOKOYO NO YAMI  NAGEKU UTA MO KIKOENAI YO 
kibou no uta  haruka kanata  sono senkoudan o uchiagero

The whole world is shrouded in hellish darkness. Not even a lamenting song is audible. 
The hill of hope is in the far distance, so shoot up your flashlight grenade.

kanjousen o hashirinukete  touhon-seisou nan no sono 
shounen shoujo sengoku-musou  ukiyo no manima ni

Looping the belt line, I don't care if I'm constantly on the move. 
Boys and girls must be unrivaled during the warring era, in the floating world.

SENBONZAKURA  YORU NI MAGIRE  KIMI NO KOE MO TODOKANAI YO 
koko wa utage  hagane no ori  sono dantoudai o tobiorite

Thousands of cherry trees dissolve into the night. Not even your voice will reach. 
This is a banquet inside a steel jail cell, so jump off from your guillotine.

SENBONZAKURA  YORU NI MAGIRE  kimi ga utai boku wa odoru 
koko wa utage  hagane no ori  saa kousenjuu o uchimakure

Thousands of cherry trees dissolve into the night. You will sing, and I will dance. 
This is a banquet inside a steel jail cell, so shoot randomly and ceaselessly with your raygun.
