Lyrics

Japanese

Roman o tsukamitore tenka-ichi
Harubaru tôi miyako e atsumatte kita
Arayuru budô bujutsu no tatsujin-tachi ga
Jiman no tsuyosa o kisou yume no budôdaikai
Tonda yo Gokû ga hora shippo furi-furi
Yatta ze sugoi waza o Kuririn mo
Hashire yo kokoro ni kaze ima kanjite
NO.1 NO.1 NO.1 sore wa dare!
Roman o tsukamitore tenka-ichi

Migoto ni kitaenu kareta karada to karada
Hageshii kiai tôshi sora made todoku
Pawâ no butsukari ai ni yureru budôkaijô
Karei sa nazo no otoko Jakkî Chun no waza
Miseta ze Yamucha ga mata Rôga-Fûfû-Ken
Tatakae tobichiru ase ima shinjite
NO.1 NO.1 NO.1 sore wa dare!
Roman o tsukamitore tenka-ichi

Hîrô tsuyosa o yasashisa wo min’na ga matte iru
Shôri wa Gokû na no ka Jakkî Chun na no ka
Futari no hibana ga chiru Kamehame-Ha
Moero yo atsui yume ni ima mukatte
NO.1 NO.1 NO.1 sore wa dare!
Roman o tsukamitore tenka-ichi
Roman o tsukamitore tenka-ichi

Translation

Take hold of the romance, the greatest in the world!
From far and wide, they have come to gather at the distant city,
Masters of every kind of martial art.
We will compete against proud strength, at the great tournament of dreams!
Look! Goku is swishing his tail to fly!
Even Kuririn did an awesome technique!
Now run, and feel the wind upon your heart!
Number 1! Number 1! Number 1! That’s who you are!
Take hold of the romance, the greatest in the world!

Wonderfully, everybody has trained hard.
The fighting spirits’ fierce yells reach up to the sky.
The tournament arena shakes with every powerful blow!
The techniques of the mysterious man Jackie Chun are incredible,
And Yamcha showed off his Wolf Fang Blowing Wind again!
Now fight on, and believe in the flying sweat!
Number 1! Number 1! Number 1! That is who you are!
Take hold of the romance, the greatest in the world!

Hero, everyone is waiting for your strength and kindness!
Will it be a victory for Goku or Jackie Chun?
Sparks will fly as both do a Kamehame-Ha!
Now burn on, and head for your wildest dreams!
Number 1! Number 1! Number 1! That’s who you are!
Take hold of the romance, the greatest in the world!
Take hold of the romance, the greatest in the world!
