Imperial Japanese March - Miya San Miya San

Miya San Miya San (My Prince, My Prince) is a Japanese march dating from the Boshin War and Meiji restoration in 1868. It is widely considered to have be the first western-style march ever made in Japan. The Prince referred to is Prince Arisugawa Taruhito, head of the Arisugawa branch of the Yamato Imperial Dynasty, and first head of the Imperial Japanese Army during the Boshin War.

Lyrics:
Miya san miya san o uma no mae ni
Hirahira suru no wa nani jai na
Are wa chōteki seibatsuseyo to no
Nishiki no go hata ja shiranai ka
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena!
 
Itten man jō no Mikado ni temukai
Mikado ni temukai suru yatsu o
Nerai hazusazu Dondon uchidasu
Dondon uchidasu satchōdo
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena
 
Oto ni kikoe shi Kantō samurai
Dotchi e nigeta to tou tareba
Shiro mo kigai mo Sutete azuma
Sutete azuma e nigetage na
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena

Ame no furu yo na Senhō no tama
no Senhō no tama no kuru naka ni
Inochi ōshi Mazu sakigake suru no mo
Mina o shū no Tama yue jya
Tokoton'yare ton'yarena!
