Home of the rising sun suddenly in gloom
Prayers for the departed, foods for the hungry
May the clouds of uncertainty will fade soon
Compassion we can give in time of agony
May Japanese’s spirits soar and triumph
And shall overcome this ghoul of tragedy
Let their hearts be embraced by the light of hope
For the world is with thee to comfort wounded souls
Rest for the weak, respite shall be given as sought
Please be one with the world and heed to the call
Pray for the children, old, and everyone else
That they eventually get through this turmoil
When the sun finally shine through the dark clouds
We can all smile and remove the black shroud
