English
Storm of blood
Born from blood
Of our fallen brothers
Borne upon our hands
Cradled in our arms
Swelling in our hearts
Raise your weary head
Heed the call to arms
Ringing in your heart
Loyalty!
Unity!
Liberty!
Japanese translation
斃(たお)れた我らが同胞より
生み出されし
血の嵐
我らの手により運ばれ
我らの腕により抱かれ
我らの心を満たしゆく
重き頭を上げ
心に鳴り響く
闘争への招集に応えよ
忠義!
結束!
自由!
