歌詞

Bonfires burn

Red in the night

My crimson battle coat

Cuts through the wind

The taiko calls

And every fool around

Starts making noise

"War! War!"

Shout all you want

By tomorrow

We may all be

Scattered anyway

So tonight—

Bring me sake

Dancing with the moon

That's how

I choose to live

Cherry blossoms drift

Through my sleeves

Even the sound

Of geta

Begins to sing

Life is short

A flower

Inside a dream

So if you're gonna bloom

Then bloom

With all you've got

Kabuke!

Kabuke!

Tonight

Let's make enough noise

To wake the moon

Yurari—

Raise your cup

And this floating world

Doesn't seem

So bad

Tomorrow's battle?

I'll think about that

When tomorrow

Comes

If the flowers

Must fall

Then let them fall

Laughing

In a blaze

Of glory

Pampas grass sways

In the night

I lead my horse

Along the river

And drink alone

No victory cries

Reach me here

Only the insects

Sing deep

Inside my chest

"Strength..."

What does that

Even mean?

If winning

Is all it takes

Then any beast

Can be strong

A man who knows tears

And still

Knows how to laugh—

Now that

Might be

A truly strong man

When clouds

Cover the moon

I pour another drink

When the sky clears

I wait

For the dawn

A human life

May be short

But the flower

Inside the heart

Doesn't wither

Kabuke!

Kabuke!

Tonight

Let's make enough noise

To wake the moon

Yurari—

Raise your cup

And this floating world

Doesn't seem

So bad

Tomorrow's battle?

I'll think about that

When tomorrow

Comes

If the flowers

Must fall

Then let them fall

Laughing

In a blaze

Of glory

Covered in mud

Still look ahead

The winds

Of a warring age

Wait for no one

Instead of measuring

What a life

Is worth

Turn the way

You lived it

Into a song

You want the realm?

Take it

I'll sit beneath the moon

And drink

My sake

Let them laugh

I couldn't care less

A life like mine

Was meant

To stand out

If you bloom

In the night

Then bloom

Bigger than anyone

And when your time comes

Scatter

Like fireworks

Kabuke!

Kabuke!

Tonight

Let's make enough noise

To wake the moon

Yurari—

Raise your cup

And this floating world

Doesn't seem

So bad

Tomorrow's battle?

I'll think about that

When tomorrow

Comes

If the flowers

Must fall

Then let them fall

Laughing

In a blaze

Of glory

Look at that

Even the moon

Is laughing

Beneath the sky

Of this warring age

If you're going

To be a kabukimono—

Then play

Until

The very end
