We grew accustomed to days spent shivering in the cold Let’s bring back the fever we forgot*

Why is my heart pounding so loud? (Ole) When the curtain rises it’s summer again Strip off all those bulky layers (Bravo!)

Ah, so bright that I squint when I look up You’re divine and great I grow hot by your side, you can make the chaotic world become one Summer General, my heart goes out to you

Before the sun’s rays and the heat haze get covered by the thick clouds Put your head up! Time won’t wait! If you can change yourself, now’s the time When you pay attention, this world is jumbled and full of contradictions You get upset and grieve over it But your habit of being wishy-washy is your enemy It’s vital to not complain and just do it

Come one, come all, let’s combine our powers A festival no one person could create We can make it happen, if it’s you and me (Bravo!)

Ah, so bright that I squint when I look up You’re divine and great I grow hot by your side, you can make the chaotic world can become one Summer General, my heart goes out to you

Meet someone!… Destroy your social anxiety and start a fierce motion! Meet someone!... Release your real self and jump into the ocean!

Cut through the vanguard and run out, you’re an expert at pumping things up Get your engine running, when boys sweat and try their best, Before they know it girls transform into maidens Today will probably become an anniversary someday, one page in the album Feeling good? Feeling good!

If you won’t cry, then don’t cry, and accept everything Anyone will smile when they’re here No matter who you are (Bravo!)

Ah, so bright that I squint when I look up You’re divine and great I grow hot by your side, you can make the chaotic world become one Summer Shogun, my heart goes out to you

As the eras come and go, this world seeks to get rid of waste

But you are always the ally of those who grow too hot Others might think I’m old-fashioned, but do you really think I’d let myself be controlled by cold emotions? Burn up!

Strong and dashing, bright and large Always burning as if to show everyone the way Shining in the middle of this burning season You’re the strongest, Summer General! Make a victory call!

Ah, so bright that I squint when I look up You’re divine and great I grow hot by your side, you can make the chaotic world become one Summer General, my heart goes out to you

Notes:

*This line is literally “Let’s bring back the Ondo we forgot”. Ondo means temperature, but is also the name of a Japanese festival dance. I thought fever might have a similar double meaning.
