Lyrics
Far to the east ruled the Samurai, mystic warrior class
Honorable brave, bark armored man, donning hideous mask
700 years of reigning Japan, the masters of attack
Dominator s of the isle of dragons, fearsome military caste
In battle no prisoners for the enemy, noble self-sacrifice
Crooked crowns sentenced to die, pay the bloody price
Sacred rites held close by the fighters, no place for disgrace
Taught to stand with dignity while staring in death's face
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
Gracefully with steady hand
He takes the dagger that lays before him
Collects his thoughts for the last time
And plunges the dirge from left to right
No sign of pain in his face
With the final cut withdraws the blade
Loyal companion by his side
Lifts the sword to help him die
Lightning flash, one swift blow
Honor is done, warrior's head rolls
In a man's glory, his spirit is stored, his very being inside
Dignity respected, courage is shown by his ritual suicide
No room for dishonor in hari kari's dagger gashing side to side
Under the rising sun the core is exposed to reveal a new life
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
Honorable brave, bark armored man, donning hideous mask
700 years of reigning Japan, the masters of attack
Dominator s of the isle of dragons, fearsome military caste
In battle no prisoners for the enemy, noble self-sacrifice
Crooked crowns sentenced to die, pay the bloody price
Sacred rites held close by the fighters, no place for disgrace
Taught to stand with dignity while staring in death's face
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
Gracefully with steady hand
He takes the dagger that lays before him
Collects his thoughts for the last time
And plunges the dirge from left to right
No sign of pain in his face
With the final cut withdraws the blade
Loyal companion by his side
Lifts the sword to help him die
Lightning flash, one swift blow
Honor is done, warrior's head rolls
In a man's glory, his spirit is stored, his very being inside
Dignity respected, courage is shown by his ritual suicide
No room for dishonor in hari kari's dagger gashing side to side
Under the rising sun the core is exposed to reveal a new life
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
(Honor even in death) Soldiers glorified
(The dagger plunges deep) Slashes side to side
(Honor even in death) Disgrace is defied
(The end they never fear) Give their life before their pride
