Nippon Lyrics

Kimigayo wa

Chiyo ni yachiyo ni

Sazareishi no

Swao to narite

Koke no musu made

May the reign of the emperor

continue far a thousand years

and for eternity,

until this tiny stone

will grow into a massive rock

and the moss will cover it

all deep and thick

Kimigayo wa

Chiyo ni yachiyo ni

Sazareishi no

Swao to narite

Koke no musu made
