Lyrics
omoidasu darou
ano hi no jouki ni

ono ga subete chi ni tatakitsuke
ima sono kokoro wa chikatta tomo no tame ni
moyase yo sono inochi

English Translation
You will remember
In the steam of that day
Lost much
Traces of countless mistakes
Even when the path is unclear as we advance
You said
“Ask your pulsating, burning blood”
Answer, heartbeat
Oh, Kabaneri of iron
Now, stand up
Throw yourself entirely onto the ground
Now, for the sake of the friend you pledged your heart to
Ignite your life
Change the world
You will remember
The person you were on that day
Who will forgive
The darkness captures the dull heart
Thinking of those you couldn’t protect
Grieve, and then realize that pain
Gives you strength to live
Unyielding Kabaneri
Now, surpass it
The resisting hands will cut through
Can your heart do it
A resolution that does not waver
Pierce through with that determination
Scratch at the ground and seize it
Certainly heard
In the midst of sorrow
When everyone looks down
“Raise your face,” they said
Do not fear, look
What’s there is hope
In both eyes
Strongly wish for it, it will come true
Oh, Kabaneri of iron
Now, stand up
To all who are everywhere
Oh, Kabaneri of iron
Now, stand up
Throw yourself entirely onto the ground
Now, for the sake of the friend you pledged your heart to
Ignite your life
Change the world
