From heaven's forge, a blade divine
Three sacred treasures intertwine
Kusanagi's edge gleams bright
Bearer of courage in the night
Through storms of time, through ancient mist
A serpent's gift, by gods' hand kissed
Eight-headed beast surrendered might
To forge a blade of holy light
In Yamato's hallowed ground
Where sacred echoes still resound
Kusanagi! Sacred steel!
Through your edge, our fate revealed
Blade of courage, heaven's fire
Raise the warrior's spirit higher
(Kusanagi!)
Three treasures bound by destiny
Mirror, jewel, and sword set free
But none command such burning pride
As this blade at warrior's side
Dancing light on tempered steel
The power only heroes feel
Face the darkness, hold the light
Sacred blade guide us through night
Ancient power courses deep
Through the vows we swore to keep
Kusanagi! Sacred steel!
Through your edge, our fate revealed
Blade of courage, heaven's fire
Raise the warrior's spirit higher
(Kusanagi!)
(Let the thunder roll)
When warriors falter, when heroes fade
Stand tall with virtue's blade
Through darkness deep and storms untamed
The Kusanagi calls your name
(Kusanagi!)
Face the darkness, hold the light
Sacred blade guide us through night
Ancient power courses deep
Through the vows we swore to keep
Kusanagi! Sacred steel!
Through your edge, our fate revealed
Blade of courage, heaven's fire
Raise the warrior's spirit higher
(Kusanagi!)
When warriors falter, when heroes fade
Stand tall with virtue's blade
Through darkness deep and storms untamed
The Kusanagi calls your name
In celestial halls it waits
Guardian of divine gates
Courage flows through sacred steel
As legends rise and empires kneel
Kusanagi! Heaven's blade!
By immortal spirits made
Grant us courage, show the way
Through the storm to break of day
(Kusanagi!)
