Get ready boys, get ready girls!
One, two, three is counted, get ready!
Get ready boys, get ready girls!
It's time to win, get ready!
So many dreams, so many thoughts,
Come, all of them will come true!
So many rivalries, so long a journey,
Come, let us walk holding hands!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
Who were you, and who was I?
Today, friendship has brought us together!
You may be different, and I may be different,
Yet we share just one single dream!
Is the sky really a boundary?
We can fly far beyond the sky!
Come, friend, fight with passion every single day!
From now on, you will win, you will win!
Hold on, be patient, O heart!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
If only students unite together,
We can shatter even a mountain into dust!
We fireflies have joined together,
Now lightning will flash upon this earth!
Life is a stage play,
Come, come, we are its characters!
The roles we play will never end!
A loving kiss is well-deserved,
Be patient, hold on, O heart, you will get it!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
Get ready boys, get ready girls!
One, two, three is counted, get ready!
Get ready boys, get ready girls!
It's time to win, get ready!
So many dreams, hoo, so many thoughts, hoo,
Come, all of them will come true!
So many rivalries, hoo, so long a journey, hoo,
Come, let us walk holding hands!
Hey!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Hey, boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Hey, boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Hey, boom shakalaka, come spinning like a storm!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
Boom shakalaka, come like a chugging train!
Boom shakalaka shakalaku shikku boom boom!
