From the original article on December 2, 2021. Author: Masaki (translator).
You and I are flowers of the same class,
Blooming in the garden of the same military academy.
Flowers that have bloomed are determined to fall.
Let us fall beautifully for the sake of our country.
You and I are flowers of the same class,
Blooming in the garden of the same military academy.
Our bond is not based on blood,
But for some reason we get on well,
And cannot be apart.
You and I are flowers of the same class,
Blooming in the garden of the same aerial unit.
The first plane has not yet returned,
From that sunset that we looked up to in the southern skies.
You and I are flowers of the same class,
Blooming in the garden of the same aerial unit.
Why did you fall and die,
Without waiting for that day that we swore to each other?
You and I are flowers of the same class.
Though we may fall separately,
We will bloom and meet again on a spring branch,
In the Capital of Flowers, in Yasukuni Shrine.
