Rise Amaterasu Lyrics


When it all began there was only chaos

A world, a formless void, no order, no laws

Gods took their spears, stirred the waters

From the swirling sea an island rose

Can you hear the voices from the high plain of heaven?

From the sun a ray of light

Embraced the earth for first time

And the gods of creation shed a tear in awe

From the sun a ray of light

Embraced the moon high in the sky

The dawn of the nation, the sign of the bright days to come

Through the aeons, the burden to carry

The keepers of order and harmony

The divine justice

A child born with flames a burning tragedy

Hiding in a cave is the grieving mother

Can you hear the voices?

Rise Amaterasu!
