Listen closely for the science behind the wordplay.
LYRICS
Romaji helps you sing the Japanese words. English meaning explains them, rather than matching the tune.
Japanese wordplay and memory tricks may sound unusual in English—that’s part of the fun! The sound clues work in Japanese.
ō and ū mark long vowels (oo and uu). Original English lines are kept as written.
Ai ga aru kara bikutorī rettsu gō
V kaku shita ni ai āru!
Rettsu gō
Nagashita ase no kazu dake
Kairo o tsunagu dōsen ni naru
Senaka ni hashitta denki
Mune ga kogareru
Nagashita namida no kazu dake
Ima o koeru chikara ni naru
Genkai toppa mezashi
Suitchi ireyō
Kimi ga senaka oshite kureru boruto agete
(Iei iei)
Anfea na koto wa nashi da yo
Oh muri ja nai
Kanarazu yareru yo
(Yareru yo)
Nagare ga wakareta nara
Gōryū sureba motodōri
Jama suru mono mo aru
Dakedo wakeaeba konnan heru
Chikara wa bikutorī ni kaketa ai sa
(Ai sā!)
Jōnetsu to wa kitto chikara o sosogu
Jikan no koto da ne
Kimi ga senaka oshite kureru boruto agete
(Iei iei)
Anfea na koto wa nashi da yo
Oh muri ja nai
Shinjite iru yo
(Shinjite iru sa)
Tsukame bikutorī
Ai ga aru kara bikutorī rettsu gō
V kaku shita ni ai āru!
Rettsu gō
Kimi ga senaka oshite kureru boruto agete
(Iei iei)
Anfea na koto wa nashi da yo
(Non non)
Oh muri ja nai
Kanarazu yareru yo
(Yareru yo)
愛があるから ビクトリー レッツゴー
V書く下に 愛あーる！
レッツゴー
流した汗の数だけ
回路をつなぐ導線になる
背中に走った電気
胸が焦がれる
流した涙の数だけ
今を超える力になる
限界突破めざし
スイッチ入れよう
君が背中押してくれる ボルト上げて
（イエイイエイ）
アンフェアなことはなしだよ
Oh 無理じゃない
必ずやれるよ
（やれるよ）
流れが分かれたなら
合流すれば元通り
邪魔するものもある
だけど分け合えば困難減る
力はビクトリーに掛けた愛さ
（愛さー！）
情熱とはきっと 力を注ぐ
時間のことだね
君が背中押してくれる ボルト上げて
（イエイイエイ）
アンフェアなことはなしだよ
Oh 無理じゃない
信じているよ
（信じているさ）
掴めビクトリー
愛があるから ビクトリー レッツゴー
V書く下に 愛あーる！
レッツゴー
君が背中押してくれる ボルト上げて
（イエイイエイ）
アンフェアなことはなしだよ
（ノンノン）
Oh 無理じゃない
必ずやれるよ
（やれるよ）
With love, there's victory—let's go!
Write V, with I and R underneath!
Let's go!
Every drop of sweat you've shed
becomes a wire connecting the circuit.
Electricity runs down my back;
my heart burns bright.
Every tear you've shed
becomes the strength to go beyond today.
Aim to break through your limits;
let's flip the switch.
You give me a push—turn up the voltage!
(Yeah, yeah!)
No playing unfair!
Oh, it's not impossible.
You can do it, for sure.
(You can do it.)
If the current splits,
it comes back together at the junction.
There are things that get in the way,
but share the load and the struggle eases.
Power is victory multiplied by love.
(Love!)
Maybe passion is the time
we spend putting our power into something.
You give me a push—turn up the voltage!
(Yeah, yeah!)
No playing unfair!
Oh, it's not impossible.
I believe in you.
(I really do.)
Seize that victory!
With love, there's victory—let's go!
Write V, with I and R underneath!
Let's go!
You give me a push—turn up the voltage!
(Yeah, yeah!)
No playing unfair!
(No, no!)
Oh, it's not impossible.
You can do it, for sure.
(You can do it.)

V書く下に 愛あーる！
“Write V, with ai and R beneath it!”
The Japanese sound “ai” means love and also sounds like the letter I.

“Power is victory multiplied by love.”
Listen for V in “victory” and I in “ai”.
情熱とはきっと 力を注ぐ
時間のことだね
“Passion might be the time you spend putting your power into something.”
