[English] Listen to the raging heartbeat
Decode the crashing waves on the scroll
To the next level, never forget your初心 (beginner's mind) — that's right
maturity reflects the spirit of Japan
A true ninja, undeniably
Souls won't stop, carrying on the tradition
Fighting to grasp your dreams reflected in your stance
Staying steady and precise, never stopping until the end
All betrayals are over, running with all our might
Quietly sneaking up, bonds are tightly sealed
Unify the world, right in our hands
Fighting through to reach the top
One, two, three, four

Hearts layered together, like a ninja, darting swiftly, hitting every mark
Never giving up, devising strategies, sparking a new dawn
When cherry blossoms sway, a calm storm stirs—a chain reaction
Remembering the unseen, gripping tight without blinking
Starting the nation’s repair, feeling life in exchange for pain
Raise your voice, cut through like a gale—no questions asked
Lurking in the darkness, waiting for the moment
Word spirits shape the era, heralding a new age
One, two, three, four — sneak, step, slip, stealth—let’s go
The times will definitely change
The time for reform has come
Carry pride and walk this path
Fighting through to reach the top
One, two, three, four
