The flag of our nation

By Atticiam & Kentsington

Mine own eyes have seen the first sunrises over our homeland

When our tribe from Corea found a new nation east of the shores

It is this island where greys brood with firefoxes

And dragons rest on the four corners of the seas

It is my father who found this everlasting kingdom evermore

I was still a young boy when he searched for his mother, Amaterasu’s flag

He searched far and wide from the southern islands

All the way to Hokkaido in the most northern part

It was a twelve year journey where he traveled 

The distance and breadth of The Sea of Japan

And I was weeping softly when he brought the Sun Goddess’ banner home

It is this very island where we all stand today

That The Morning Star was blown to the shore

So this virgin island is without blemishes 

Like the virgin snow that falls on our Sacred Mountain

It was on Mount Fuji where my grandmother

Our Great Goddess of The Red Sun

Where she flew back to heaven

But she left our tribe without a nation

Without a king to lead his people

So we cried to her son bring us a unifying flag

The very flag of Our Great Goddess of The Red Sun

Will be the flag of our nation

After twelve years of tears and toils that the rain and storm would envy

It was east of Mount Fuji where The Flag Of The Sakura Principalities fell from heaven

And my father cried to his mother

Thank you, loving mother

You have brought us a nation

You have brought us a kingdom

This will be our flag from henceforth 

‘til today is time immemorial 

Mine own eyes have seen the first sunrises over our homeland
