Lyrics
Kanji=
 * いざ！いざ！いざ！いざ！


 * 是からいよいよ一心不乱に
 * 此の家　守らん！
 * されども　おむしも　おむしも
 * おむしも
 * 当てにはなるまい？
 * 此度の戦は　勝利すれど
 * 磐石になるは　まだまだなり
 * 何故に呑気なりし輩ばかり…


 * 皆々
 * 甘い！ぬるい！
 * いやいやかけがえなき　我が同胞
 * 緩い！軽い！否　大切な我が同志
 * 共に歩みし心はひとつ
 * されど溜息　今宵も


 * 気楽な振る舞い　油断は大敵
 * 片腹痛いぞ！
 * 相手はたぬきか　むじなか　いたちか
 * たぬきか　やっぱり？
 * 頼れる右腕　側に居るか
 * 仲間の態度が腑に落ちぬぞ
 * 頼りなきと言う程ではないか…


 * 何どぞ！
 * 我が胸　よぎりし
 * 此の思いを悟ってくれ
 * 此ののち　よろしくとただ頼みたく
 * 共に歩みし願いはひとつ
 * されば愚痴など　これにて.


 * いざ！いざ！いざ！いざ！


 * 皆々
 * 甘い！ぬるい！
 * いやいやかけがえなき　我が同胞
 * 緩い！軽い！否　大切な我が同志
 * 共に歩みし心はひとつ
 * 力尽くして　行こうぞ.

 * -|English Translation=
 * Come on！Come on！Come on！Come on！


 * If we don't concentrate on our job
 * we can't protect our home！
 * But you, you,
 * and you!
 * Where's your focus？
 * Sure, we've won this battle
 * but we've got a long way to go before we're perfect
 * All because I'm stuck with such a carefree lot…


 * Everyone,
 * you're all weak！ Slacking！
 * I complain, but you are all my irreplaceable countrymen
 * You're all lax！Frivolous！ Nay, you're my precious comrades
 * Come with me, our hearts are one
 * Even so, I can't stifle my sigh of frustration tonight


 * Don't strut around so relaxed; negligence is the enemy.
 * It's absolutely absurd！
 * Is our foe the raccoon dog, the badger, or the weasel?
 * So it's the raccoon dog after all?
 * Do I have a right hand that I can rely on?
 * Based on how they act, they cannot understand how I feel
 * They are reliable, but it's beyond them…


 * I'm begging you！
 * My heart is clouded
 * Someone, please realize my feelings
 * I just want someone near me that I can count on
 * Walk with me, we share the same wish
 * So I'm asking you to cease your bellyaching.


 * Come on！Come on！Come on！Come on！


 * Every last one of you
 * is naive！ Lazy！
 * I nag, but you are all my irreplaceable brothers
 * Careless！Superficial！ No, I mean, you're my precious comrades
 * Join me, our hearts are one
 * Let's proceed together until our strength gives out.

Translation Notes

 * The "raccoon dog, badger, weasel" are archaic identifications for these animals, which have been mixed with one another repeatedly in Japanese. Putting these terms together is a confusing wordplay and meant to be baffling for listeners. Raccoon dog is derogatory slang for Ieyasu created during the Edo period.
