Bushido lyrics

The way of the warrior

A life of constant dualities

Where righteousness lies

And gains strength within

Heroic courage gives might

That greets death bravely

While having respect for life

Benevolence for others

The duty and loyalty earned

Made manifest by respect

Given to those living near

The elevated and the lowly

Striding with humble honour

Integrity engrained in the soul

Mitigated with self control

Disciplined mind and emotion

Filial piety exists for family

The social bonds of conduct

That hones moral character

Wisdom gained from elders

Our brotherhood requires

The fraternal obligation kept

To be compassionate so

Patience deemed its cohort

Obedience and evotion too

They require self sacrifice

The ambitions that mislead

Are foes to service before self

A warrior must be fearless

But able to be kind to all

N'er to make suffer in hate

Nor to do so by butchery

With gentle hands extended

To prolong life in goodness

Flowers blossom quietly

Their beauty is tranquility
