Made in JAPAN

Lyrics: Ketsumeishi
Composition: Takahiro Tomoegawa & Ketsumeishi

We've gotten up from that burnt field
What happened these few decades?
Not just one person's charisma or a great leader,
all members have changed this country
Automobiles, motorcycles, electric appliances
They've conquered the world, amazing
Expensive technology and sound effort
Reaching all the way to the ends of the world

Value projecting the beautiful change of seasons
in culture and art
Food culture, fashion, contemporary art
Now games and anime overwhelm the world
All throughout the world, made in JAPAN
No good fussed over as much as this
Let's hold our pride and go through the next age
The example of the world is the world's Japan!!

Made in JAPAN
Quite convenient tools
More than appearance, strong structure's the selling point
Flap your wings, made in JAPAN
All around this world, hi quality making and
innovative idea

More virtuous than money, more public than individual
Spirits dwelling in things and nature
Respecting companions, greetings, courtesy
Valuing harmony in the 20th Century
The spirit of Tao, between manners
seeking beauty, we've inherited wabisabi1
Can't imitate our original process
The development of a culture like this is only in Japan

Right now workers and technology
are sought after and again culture builds there
No matter where, we have determination and pride
Japan's the spirit of hospitality
Friendliness, traditional technique
From things to heart, made in JAPAN
Let's protect this properly and convey it
Now for sure let's sing a song like this

Made in JAPAN
Quite convenient tools
More than appearance, strong structure's the selling point
Flap your wings, made in JAPAN
All around this world, hi quality making and
innovative idea

We've awoken from the depths of sorrow
Amid the deep sorrow we've honored dedication,
harmony, and virtues,
to see the light leading us away from adversity
That is our "Made in JAPAN"

Everything is born
from sadness, so
Everything is created
from kindness
Compassionate feelings
That for sure is made in JAPAN

Made in JAPAN
Quite convenient tools
More than appearance, strong structure's the selling point
Flap your wings, made in JAPAN
All around this world, hi quality making and
innovative idea

[1] - wabisabi is defined as, "aesthetic sense in Japanese art emphasizing quiet simplicity and subdued refinement"

Ano yakenohara kara tachiagatta
Kono suujuunen ni nani ga atta no?
Hitori no KARISUMA idai na RIIDAA ja naku
Kono kuni kaeta zen'in ga
Jidousha BAIKU denkaseihin
Sekai sekken shita AMEEJINGU
Takai gijutsu to tayumanu doryoku
Sekai hate made harubaru todoku

Utsukushii shiki no utsurikawari wo
Bunkageijutsu ni utsushita kachi
Shokubunka FASSHON gendai AATO
Ima ja GEEMU ANIME sekai attou
Sekai itaru toko Made in JAPAN
Kore hodo kodawatta seihin wa nai
Hokori mochi tsugi no sedai wo ikou
Sekai no mihon wa sekai no Nihon!!

Made in JAPAN
Kanari benri na TSUURU
Mitame ijou ni ganjou na tsukuri ga uri
Habatake Made in JAPAN
Kono sekaijuu ni Hi quality na tsukuri to
Innovative idea

Kane yori toku ko yori kou
Kami ga yadoru shizen ya mono nimo
Aite wo sonchou aisatsu reigi
Wa wo motte toutoshi nijuuseiki
Dou no seishin sahou no ma ni
Mi motome uketsugareta wabisabi
Dokuji no katei dekinai mane
Konna bunka no hatten Nihon dake

Ima ya sekai de shokunin ya gijutsu
Motomerare mata soko de bunka kizuku
Doko ni itemo kodawari to hokori
Nihon nara omotenashi no kokoroiki
Komayakasa dentou no waza
Mono kara kokoro made Made in JAPAN
Tadashiku mamori tsutaete ikou
Ima koso konna uta utatte kou

We've awoken from the depths of sorrow
Amid the deep sorrow we've honored dedication,

Tsukurarete iru no darou

Kono sekaijuu ni Hi quality na tsukuri to
