Kanji

 * きらり天を駆け昇れ
 * 竜が飛ぶ如くに
 * この地上を見下ろして
 * 天下を狙い
 * 起こせ 回天の嵐


 * 胸の奥の焔が燃え立つ
 * 燻るまま消えない野望の火よ
 * 苛立ち 怒りも
 * 夢を奪い取るため
 * 生まれる力


 * ひらり天を掴み取れ
 * 竜が宝珠の如くに
 * 敵前に広がりし
 * 三千世界
 * 我の拳の中にきっと


 * 何処に立つかそれより大事は
 * 如何なること出来るか問うべし ただ
 * 独つの眼で
 * 数多この国を見て
 * 制するために


 * きらり天を駆け抜けろ
 * 雲を散らし果てなく
 * 遂げられぬ思いでも
 * 命を賭けて
 * 生きる 青雲を目指し


 * きらり天を駆け昇れ
 * 竜が飛ぶが如く
 * この地上を見下ろして
 * 天下を狙い
 * 起こせ 回天の嵐


 * 乱世の風 我に勝利を
 * 名乗りをあげろ 我は竜神

English Translation

 * I rise towards the lustrous sky
 * as though I were a flying dragon
 * Looking down at the earth
 * I take sight of the land
 * and raise a storm to shake the heavens


 * Deep within my heart burns a fire
 * the smoldering, inextinguishable fire of ambition
 * My frustration and anger
 * give birth to a power
 * to steal the land for myself


 * I grab hold of the expanding heavens
 * like the dragon holding its treasured orb
 * Spread over the enemy
 * all around the world
 * within the very palm of my hand


 * Asking myself what I can achieve is
 * more important than knowing my stance in the world
 * With a single lowered eye
 * I gaze upon countless countries
 * all for me to rule


 * I climb towards the brilliant sky
 * to the great beyond where the clouds disperse
 * My feelings don't melt away
 * though my life is at risk
 * I must live to claim my own lofty rank


 * I rise towards the lustrous sky
 * as though I were a flying dragon
 * Looking down at the earth
 * I take sight of the land
 * and raise a storm to shake the heavens


 * Winds of chaos, grant me victory
 * State my name aloud for I am the dragon god
