Come on Chichiue, would you like to have some sake?
Hello Hahaue, hello Hahaue,
I can't seem to forget the taste
Of that nikujaga I ate so long ago
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
My name is Japan
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Stare a while, there's Earth
Should that happen to be Earth
My name is Japan
Ah, a fabulous world,
That can be seen with a paintbrush
White rice is the best!
It's utterly splendid!
("While I emphasize modesty and courtesy,
someone humble like me can also sing cheerful songs.")
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
My name is Japan
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Step back, there's Earth
Lie on your back, there's Earth
My name is Japan
Ah, in just one stew
A mother's cooking moves you to tears
("Thin konnyaku is better.")
On sunny days, I hide under
A parasol
Please Aniue , serve the tuna
After that, Aneue , I need more wasabi
Oi, oi, Ojii , let's make a pledge for peace
Yes, yes, you too, Bouya. "For its sake, you as well."
Come on Chichiue, Would you like to have more sake?
Hello Hahaue, hello Hahaue
I can't seem to forget the taste
Of that nikujaga I ate so long ago.
The savory flavors of life
Are found in all four seasons!
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
Draw a circle, there's Earth
My name is Japan
Ah, a fabulous world
that can be seen with a paintbrush
White rice is the best!
It's utterly splendid!
Ah, a sleeping recipe of joy in the world
So long as there is soy sauce,
It'll be a peaceful trip!
