Lyrics


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

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
