Love your work!!! It’s always so amazing to me how your translation of the songs are not only accurate but also very whimsical. I especially like the songs you do from Japanese to English, because when I listen to the original pieces with English subtitles I don’t understand the language and that takes a part of the song away, but listen to a very capable and talented voice it makes me feel the gist of the song way better. Thank you again for always doing such great work with these :)
@@ztfes Battotai is a song about satsuma rebellion. It was written during the time when Japan was an empire so yeah i guess its an imperial Japanese song.
Lyrics: Loyal to the emperor, we're his soldiers all. Ready for battle and not afraid to fall. The enemy is led by a man of great acclaim. No other general is equal to his fame. And those who follow him aren't afraid of death. Fiercer than tigers to their final breathe! But their rebellion shall heaven not allow! All who spurn the emperor, will be made to bow. Those who raise rebellion's flag never will prevail! Cast against our righteous might, they can not avail! Now 'till the enemy is laid low in defeat. Let us march with spirits high and never sound retreat! Onwards like a blazing sword, forward to the fray! Being not afraid to die we'll carry the day. As it was before in the story days of old. When noble samurai, braved the field so bold. The proudly wielded sword once a relic of the past. Now is made sharp again and unsheathed at last! So take a warning now whether friend or foe: Those wishing for a fight, all will be laid low! But those with spirits pure, be ye not afraid. Death has no power over those who wield the blade! Now's the time for gallant deeds so do not fear to fall. Marching to our destinies, ready one and all! Now 'till the enemy is laid low in defeat. Let us march with spirits high and never sound retreat! Onwards like a blazing sword, forward to the fray! Being not afraid to die we'll carry the day.
The Imperial Japanese Army sounded so optimistic. So too did the Japanese Air Force. What I don't understand is why the Imperial Japanese Navy did not share this sentiment. Captain Tameichi Hara, one of the few officers of the IJN to survive the Second Sino-Japanese War and the subsequent Tokyo War Crime Trials, did not show any enthusiasm or hopefulness during his entire career, and according to his autobiography, Japanese Destroyer Captain, nor did anyone else, especially after the death of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. The only time I connected with Hara's emotions were when he received the letter that said he was accepted into the Japanese Navy, and when he shouted; ''Bonsai!'' I wonder if there is a song like this for the Imperial Japanese Navy.
大英帝国とアメリカ合衆国に“Yamato damasii”を知ろうとする精神があるのは非常に興味深い。 It is very interesting that the British Empire and the United States have a spirit of trying to get to know "Yamato damasii".
This is a splendid version of the Battotai march! Is this your original translation? It really captures the meaning and spirit of the original Japanese version, while conforming to the stylistic requirements of English-language lyrics. Thank you for your amazing work!!
@@avus-kw2f213 if you really think Hirohito was the leader of japan in the same way Hitler was the leader of Germany - you need to read a bit into their government structure.

This song is about the war between Emperor Lincoln and great Warlord-Poet Robert Lee.

Lyrics:
Loyal to the emperor, we're his soldiers all.
Ready for battle and not afraid to fall.
The enemy is led by a man of great acclaim.
No other general is equal to his fame.
And those who follow him aren't afraid of death.
Fiercer than tigers to their final breathe!
But their rebellion shall heaven not allow!
All who spurn the emperor, will be made to bow.
Those who raise rebellion's flag never will prevail!
Cast against our righteous might, they can not avail!
Now 'till the enemy is laid low in defeat.
Let us march with spirits high and never sound retreat!
Onwards like a blazing sword, forward to the fray!
Being not afraid to die we'll carry the day.
As it was before in the story days of old.
When noble samurai, braved the field so bold.
The proudly wielded sword once a relic of the past.
Now is made sharp again and unsheathed at last!
So take a warning now whether friend or foe:
Those wishing for a fight, all will be laid low!
But those with spirits pure, be ye not afraid.
Death has no power over those who wield the blade!
Now's the time for gallant deeds so do not fear to fall.
Marching to our destinies, ready one and all!
Now 'till the enemy is laid low in defeat.
Let us march with spirits high and never sound retreat!
Onwards like a blazing sword, forward to the fray!
Being not afraid to die we'll carry the day.
